How to Romance Sciel or Lune in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Sciel’s route turns consequential earlier; Lune’s begins after Act II. The routes are mutually exclusive, so here are the scenes and dialogue choices to know.

You can romance Sciel or Lune in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, but not both in one playthrough. Sciel’s route becomes consequential earlier, around relationship rank 3 to 4 and again after the second Act II Axon. Lune’s route begins after Act II and involves a personal quest in Sirène’s Dress. If you are undecided, avoid accepting either character’s romantic invitation until you choose.

How romance and relationship ranks work

Companion relationship scenes become available at camp from Act II. Speak with companions and accept available “spend time” scenes. Their availability is gated by story progress, so if a character has no new scene, advance the main story and check camp again rather than repeatedly resting.

Each companion has seven relationship ranks. Rank progression can unlock gameplay rewards, including attacks; romance is a separate, narrative-focused choice. The cited route guide ties the final Gradient Attack rewards for Sciel and Lune to rank 7, whether or not you romance them.

How to romance Sciel

  1. If you want Sciel, keep Lune’s route open by declining Lune’s romantic invitation.

  4. After defeating the Paintress and entering Act III, speak with Sciel during her rank 6 scene and choose “Let’s celebrate” to complete the route.

How to romance Lune

  1. Keep Lune’s route available by declining Sciel’s earlier romantic overtures. The English-language guide lists these responses: at rank 3, “Um, actually I’m a bit sleepy.”; at rank 4, “That might not be a good idea. I don’t know if I can keep my feelings casual.”

Which route should you choose?

There is no evidence-based “best” route. Sciel’s decision arrives earlier and has a second consequential scene after the second Axon. Lune’s invitation comes later and includes a quest connected to her parents and Expedition 46. Choose based on which character and story you prefer, how much you want to avoid spoilers, or whether you plan another playthrough.

The official Clair Obscur site describes Lune as the daughter of prominent researchers who has sacrificed everything to complete her parents’ work, with the goal of unraveling the Paintress’s mystery. It describes Sciel as a farmer turned teacher who is warm and outgoing, while her teasing smile masks a painful past.

Dialogue and patch caveats
