"There are many kinds of love, Emilia...

...maybe it is antiquated to assume that there can only be one object of love...

...you will make me happiest of all by mastering yourself."


>Offer my embrace.

"You are already so much more than when we met."

EVENTS:

Emilia accepts Klimt's embrace, wrapping her arms around his body and crying onto his chest. It's hard to judge, but... He feels his words had some effect on her. What effect, exactly, only time will tell.

Curie looks at the two of them, her expression softening slightly.

Curie: "Unit... Also wants OPERATOR Klimt to be happy. Unit does not know why. But. OPERATOR Emilia's relationship with him seems... Adequate. For the moment. Unit is not opposed to-
S-
S-s-s-s--
ssssssharing."

>Continue holding Emilia.

"Curie, you and I have strategy to discuss before that. We further need to interpret how OPERATOR Peggy will handle this, since she has staked something of a territorial claim."

There is a short pause before Curie answers. Emilia seems a bit more relaxed now, breathing more slowly and deeply.

Curie: "...Affirmative. Prioritizing search for OPERATOR Peggy."

Walk over to Curie.

"Curie, Klimt aside, how do you feel. I think you may have picked up some bits of personality from the food, or it might just be the wine."

EVENTS:

Curie: "Unit is... Unsure. It is like- Like-
RUNNING ANALOGY SUBROUTINES. COMPLETE.
Like someone had taken all of Unit's hidden, read-only files, and copied them to the desktop. And set them to autorun. And added a migraine on top of it.
Unit feels like it needs another drink."



Eigla momentarily leaves the emotional hugfest to ask the maids for some writing implements. They are quick to oblige, bringing a notepad and a decorated fountain pen, though both seem to have been made for Désirée-sized hands.

"From what I know, alcohol will do that to you. You'll get your filter back when you sober up.
Were you feeling any different before the wine?"

EVENTS:

The maids run off, then quickly return with some decorated invitation cards, with abstract and floral patterns.


Curie: "...Unit is not sure. The food was, very good. Unit's memory databanks don't seem to contain any instances of eating pleasurable foods, but it felt- strangely, nostalgic. Unit did not want it to stop. Unit still regrets having stopped. Unit feels hungry."

"Thanks!"

> Head back inside, find a table and a chair. Cleanly fold one of the papers in half. On the outside, in my neatest handwriting, write Désirée

On the inside -

Kindness is rare in this barren world. Throughout our travels,
ill-fortune has befallen us time and again, seemingly without end.
Loss, hunger, desperation, fear. Nipping at our heels
like hounds, with only the briefest pause to give us a false glimmer of hope.
Death hung over our heads like an imminent storm, even when we
evaded danger and defeated foes, as we braved forests of wolves and
skirted ruins. And yet, when we crossed the wasteland and entered your
isolated domain, you greeted us with kindness and safety,
regardless of the opening hostilities we displayed. We are
eternally grateful for what you have given us, a true
emblem of the goodness in the world that used to be, and still is.

Thank you.


> Sign my name at the bottom, leaving space for the others.

Motion to Rosa -


"Here Rosa, come sign this thank-you card!"

"Mm. Well, no more meat for either of you then. Or wine. I don't like the effect it's having.
I can only assume Desiree has been adding some "secret ingredient" to her private stocks for extra flavor. Or just using undead animals. Or undead grapes. She's probably one of those flesh eater types.
...
Hm. Well. As long as she doesn't eat ours.

Oh. A card?"
> Sign card.
