Ev 1-16 - Two Cafes

Thetis:

Whoa, this is...!

Kuk, this will be a perfect place to set up Cafe Horizon. It's as if someone had prepared for this in advance.

Hmm...I think this one is better than the one over there...so we'll place our logo here and then set up our menu here...

Royal Arsenal:

Isn't this Thetis. What were you up to?

Thetis:

Ah, General Arsenal! Hehe, we decided to open a cafe this time. And conincidentally~ I found this cafe building here.

Royal Arsenal:

A cafe...mind if I ask what you'll be serving?

Thetis:

That's classified~ Kik, but would you like to take a peek at our special menu?

Royal Arsenal:

This is...

Thetis:

It's a special menu...for our perverted Commander♥

Royal Arsenal:

I see...so you are still open for the usual cafe business, but prepared a special menu just for the Commander?

Interesting.

Thetis:

Kyahaha, right? The others are still a little embarrassed, but we're thinking of a special menu where it involves the four of us too~?

Royal Arsenal:

I see...this will definitely be a unique delicacy. Thank you.

Thetis:

You're welcome - ...Pardon me?

Perrault:

Everyone. We haven't cleared this sector yet. So you shouldn't be here.

Royal Arsenal:

Hmm...

Perrault:

W, what's wrong?

Royal Arsenal:

You're hired. You, why don't you come work for me.

Perrault:

...Excuse me?

Royal Arsenal:

We'll need another pretty face. I guess we can take our time getting the servers...

Perrault:

H, hold on! What do you mean by I'm hired?

Royal Arsenal:

Do you know how to sing?

Perrault:

I, I suppose. But why -

Royal Arsenal:

Can you play an instrument?

Perrault:

I can't. Anyways, may I please know why -

Royal Arsenal:

Are you willing to practice one?

Perrault:

No!

Royal Arsenal:

That's a shame. Nonetheless, you are perfect the way you are.

Perrault:

What's this...*Sigh.*

Ah, yes, Big Sis. Are we clear? Of course. I'll let out Master know first as instructed.

Yes. Of course, I'll buy some snacks for the younger sisters and get back early. Yes, Big Sis.

Royal Arsenal:

Hmm, we need to do some renovations here. I don't think it would be easy to make a big stage.

Perrault:

General Arsenal. I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about, but if you'll excuse me, I'm going to see our Master.

Royal Arsenal:

You shouldn't.

Perrault:

...Why not?

Royal Arsenal:

He's going through something. It looks like something's troubling him.

Perrault:

Then I should hurry and tell - That's...Ms. Glacias...?

...By the way, did you hear anything, General Arsenal?

Royal Arsenal:

Nope.

Perrault:

Then how do you know?

Royal Arsenal:

It's just a hunch. I've shared the same bed countless times to know something's wrong.

Perrault:

A, again with those words...!

Royal Arsenal:

You think I'm making a joke?

Perrault:

...

Royal Arsenal:

Whether you're a human or a Bioroid, you become honest to your partner once you are connected to one another. Don't you agree?

Perrault:

...I do.

Royal Arsenal:

Once you repeat the whole process countless times, you have this moment of enlightenment. You somehow grasp what he's thinking just by observing his gestures, facial expressions, and changes in voice tone.

You can call it superstition. Because I think it is.

Perrault:

...I think I understand what you're saying, just a little bit.

Royal Arsenal:

Just a little bit, huh? It looks like you have a long way to go.

So, what do you say? If you agree to work with me, I'll teach you what true love is.

Perrault:

I won't! And I already - urgh...

T, thanks for the conversation. And now, if you'll excuse me.

Royal Arsenal:

Haha, feel free to reach out when you have a change of heart.

...

I don't know what you're going through, but I hope you pull through, my Dear.
