PoR Ike/Elincia A

Character	English	Japanese	My Rough Translation
Elincia	...	…………▼	...
Ike	We finally reach the capital tomorrow.	いよいよ、明日は王都だな。▼	At last, tomorrow it'll be the capital.
Elincia	Yes...	……はい。▼	... Yes.
Ike	How are you feeling about it?	心境は？▼	How do you feel?
Elincia	More than a little anxious... But... We've finally made it. I'm home. More than anything, I feel relief.	…とても不安です。でも…… やっとたどり着いた。▼ やっと帰って来られた。その２つの喜びの方が強いです。▼	... Very anxious. But... At last, we've finally managed to arrive. At last, we can make our return. These two happinesses are greater.
Ike	You've grown strong, Princess.	強くなったな。▼	You've become strong.
Elincia	That's only because I had such a great role model.	すぐ傍に… 良いお手本がありましたから。▼	That's because a good model... was right next to me.%
Ike	Hah! I think you meant to say bad role model, right? By the way, do you remember what you said to me on the southern sea?	悪いの間違いだろう。▼ あんた南の海で自分がなんて言ったか覚えてるか？▼	I think you're quite mistaken.⁰ On that southern sea, do you remember what you said?
Elincia	W-what did I say? Hopefully, it was nothing too embarassing.	な、なんですか…？私なにか変なことを言いましたか？▼	Wh-what is it...? Did I say something strange?
Ike	You said, "Give them a sound thrashing!"	『ぶっとばしてさしあげましょう！』だったか？▼	"May you give them a thrashing!" wasn't it?¹
Elincia	Oh...er...that? That was...um... I was trying to fit in, my lord Ike. To be rough and capable like the rest of you.	あ…　あれは… 少しアイク様たちの真似をしてみたかったんです。▼ 私も、みなさんのようにたくましくなりたくって……▼	Th-that was... I was trying to sound a little like you and your men.²% I wanted to become bold like everyone [else], you see...%
Ike	You caught me off guard with that one.	あれには、さすがに面食らった。▼	As usual, I'm confused³ by you.
Elincia	Hee hee! It brings back memories. When I fled the capital and was told about Crimea's defeat in Gallia... I prepared myself to live in crushing, colorless despair for the rest of my days. But when I look back, I can see there were some warm rays of hope...poking through.	フフ　……なんだかとても、なつかしいですね。▼ 王都を逃れた時… ガリアで…クリミアの敗戦を聞かされた時…▼ これから先、自分を待つものは絶望だけだと思い覚悟していました…▼ …だけど、こうして振り返ってみると希望がいくつもありました…… とても暖かな希望の光が……▼	Heheh. ... Somehow, it's⁴ very dear, isn't it? When I had fled from the capital... in Gallia... when I had heard of Crimea's defeat...% I had resigned myself to the thought that, from thereon, only despair awaited me...% ... However, when I look back like this, there was a great deal of hope... the warm, warm light of hope...
Ike	You're right...	そうだな……▼	Yeah...
Elincia	Tomorrow, I will face King Daein and reclaim Crimea...or die in the attempt. It is the only thing on my mind.	私は…この希望を胸に…… 明日の戦いに臨みます。▼ デイン王を倒し、クリミアを取り戻すために。▼	I... with this hope in my breast... I will face tomorrow's battle. And I will bring down King Daein, for the sake of taking back Crimea.
Ike	You employed me as a mercenary. I'll give you your money's worth! ...No. It means more than that... To my last breath, I will do all that I can to ensure your dream...Elincia.	俺は、あんたに雇われた傭兵だ。あんたの望みを叶えるために全力を尽くすと約束する。▼	I'm the mercenary you hired. In order to grant your desire, I promise I'll use every last drop of my strength.
Elincia	Oh, Ike...	アイク様……▼	Lord Ike...

⁰ Less... posh. But this is the only way I can think of translating this closely and succinctly.
¹ Really, it's adorably strange. The first part (the "sound thrashing" part) uses a pretty colloquial way to express that timeless knock'em-out-of-the-water idea, and then it ends with a polite "may you give them!" that, incidentally, is also snarkily treating the enemy with respect.
² Not actually gendered in the Japanese -- literally "Lord Ike and [the group of people near him]"
³ In the sense of "shocked" (but not as strong as "shocked"), not "you make my hormones do something strange".
⁴ The next few lines suggest she means the memories. Like The Aeneid! ("Perhaps, one day, remembering even these things will bring pleasure." Book 1, Line 203.)
