Melia's Imperial Villa is a Heart-to-Heart in Xenoblade Chronicles.
Melia
This is the Imperial Villa.
I spent my childhood here with my mother.
Mecha-Fiora
Oh, I'm sorry.
If I'd known, I wouldn't have barged in.
Melia
Don't be silly. It's quite all right.
In fact, I'm glad that you in particular have come to see it.
Mecha-Fiora
I mean, we're sort of friends now, but we only just met.
Melia
Oh...
So you don't value the short time we've spent together? I know I do.
Mecha-Fiora
Melia... I...
No. You're right. I shouldn't have said that.
You know, Melia, you're... something else.
Melia
Something else? How maddeningly vague!
Mecha-Fiora
What I meant was...
Mecha-Fiora
You never mince your words and you're always upfront.
Melia
You really think so?
I've never thought about myself that way before.
Mecha-Fiora
It's just like you said.
We've only spent a short time together, but it's meant so much.
Melia
I did say that.
But it was obvious enough already. What point are you making?
Mecha-Fiora
That's it! Right there.
You speak your mind to anyone, and people respect you for it.
You're everything I ever imagined a princess to be.
Melia
I am?
Your words fill me with a sense of pride in my upbringing.
But I find myself jealous of you.
Mecha-Fiora
Jealous? Really?

Melia
Oh...forget I said anything.
Hmm, perhaps a change of scenery is in order. The next room is...
Mecha-Fiora
You don't know what I meant?
Mecha-Fiora
There's no need to be modest.
Melia
But...I wasn't! I simply did not understand your point!
Mecha-Fiora
But it was you that said the most important part.
That we've only spent a short time together, but it's meant so much.
Melia
I did say that, yes.
But what of it? I was merely stating the obvious.
Mecha-Fiora
That there! That's what I mean!
It's the way you're brutally honest. I'm the total opposite.
I hope you don't mind me saying so, but I think you're kind of cool.
Melia
I must admit, no one has ever told me that.
You're an interesting character yourself, Fiora.
Mecha-Fiora
I am? I've never really felt like that. But thank you all the same!
+300
Melia
Hmph. So carefree...
I think I'm beginning to see what Shulk likes about you.
Mecha-Fiora
That means a lot to me.
And it really is a lovely home!
Melia
I'm glad you think so.
Mecha-Fiora
But...something about it seems... sad. Lonely, almost.
Melia
You think so too.
This place has always had a lonely feel to it...
Mecha-Fiora
So it's not just me then...
Mecha-Fiora
I'm sorry, Melia.
I didn't mean to say anything that would upset you.
Melia
You did nothing of the sort.
The truth is, my mother passed away some time ago.
It's probably because of that.
Mecha-Fiora
Oh... That means you're just like me.
My mother died when I was young as well.
Melia
Your brother told me.
Mecha-Fiora
My mother's room is still as it was. Full of memories, but so empty.
I somehow get the same sense from this place.
Melia
Not everyone has had that kind of experience.
No wonder you can recognise the feel of this place.
Mecha-Fiora
I hope you'll always look after this place. The garden's amazing.
I would love to hang out here again. It's really growing on me!
+300
Melia
And I'd love for you to visit again.
I'm glad it's made such an impression on you.
Mecha-Fiora
Oh, sorry. I was just kidding!
Mecha-Fiora
Wait, you mean it's true?
Wow! I wasn't being serious.
Melia
That was meant to be a joke?! What kind of joke is that?!
I suggest you keep such jokes to yourself in future.
Mecha-Fiora
Sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
You really think it feels lonely here?
Melia
I do, yes.
My mother passed away some time ago, but her memories remain.
I suspect that's the reason.
Mecha-Fiora
I didn't know. That's sad.
I lost my mother too. It was when I was quite young...
So we have more in common than you might think.
Melia
I'm glad we can be so open with one another, Fiora.
Mecha-Fiora
Me too!
Do you wanna chat some more? I'd love to know about your mum.
+300
Melia
Really? That would be nice.
I don't often get the chance to talk to anyone about her.
