(Acht sighs) Look, I may not look it, but if something's bothering you, you can talk to me. No— Sthesia isn't exactly the best girl to confide in stuff about.
That's it, good. Relive the pain of being attached to someone. Remove yourself from emotional attachments! Take hold of your destiny!
"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."??? (Aichi)
-So she'd be willing to listen to him?-
-...It might be a good idea for him to get this off of his chest...-
"...It's strange... Ever since I fought, I've been feeling really strange..."
-He's uneasy, he's getting these stupid headaches, and he's feeling guilty...-
"I'm not sure why... Seeing that girl in there... and the way she keeps talking like she knows me...?
-He's never met her before... So why?-
"...And even Leos Alloy... and that civilian girl that was nearby during the fight... They kept acting familiar with me, and..."
-He shakes his head.-
"I-I keep telling myself they were just trying to get into my head..."
-They're the enemy... it'd make sense that they would try to get into his head... make him falter...-

-anna continues to struggle as the shocking goes on-
-she can't let them go! If she lets go of everyone then she's nothing! she'll be hollow and empty and have nothing-
-but it hurts... it hurts so much like before! it hurts and she wants it to stop the bad people are hurting her again and she wants it to end now!-
-… why do you keep coming back here, anna?-
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!-anna just screams and yells as it goes on-
-there isn't any hope in escape... no matter what you do you can't get out, no matter how hard you try again and again you're just getting dragged back in that pit-
-the truth hits her hard, she's a tool and no amount of hate and rage will break her free now-
-as it finally hits her she seems to stop struggling-
-she just wants it to stop... she doesn't want it to hurt anymore-
...

LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!??? (Aichi)
-He doesn't think he knows them, but they sure as heck act like they do...-
"...I-I don't know them, but they keep talking like they know me..."
-So... why does he feel...?-
"I-I..."
-...Honestly, it's a blur how he joined them...-
-All he knows is that he never had this trouble before.-
-He was happy with them... His master, Sthesia, and the others...-
-He was always glad to do whatever they want.-
-They're all he has...-
-Before them, he had nothing...-
-...Or at least he can't remember anything before them. It's all completely blank, but he never felt the need to try to remember.-
-He feels indebted to them... They took him in, they taught him how to pilot a Mobile Suit, they wanted his help...-
-...They care about him...-
-So... he'll do anything they tell him.-
-But suddenly these strange feelings have hit him, and are making him feel so wrong.-
"...I-It's all so confusing..."

(Acht sighs while putting a supportive hand on his shoulder) Look, kid, Aichi, you may be getting stressed out because that was your first real mission? It's probably just nerves, man.
(-EX- smirks) Good. Now we can get to work on your programming. Sesto?
At once, Master.
(Nono sighs) I'm gonna go look for my Knight.
(Primo looks confusedly at Nono.) Huh? Why, big sis? Isn't he with Acht?
Yes, and I don't want her to have him all by herself!
Pfft, only because you gave him cooties...
(Nono just smirks as she goes to find Aichi, and as -EX- gets to work on turning Anna into a real soldier.)
"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."??? (Aichi)
-...Yeah. Yeah, first mission...-
-Not to mention he failed...-
-...It's just nerves. It's just nerves...-
-He nods his head. Acht is right. He's just nervous.-
"...Y-Yeah, you're right."
-Aichi manages to smile a little.-
"Thank you, Acht... I feel a little better now..."
-Identity crisis averted.-
(Acht smiles) Hey, it's alright, kid.
What are you doing, Acht? (Oh. Nono's there. Aichi, what could your damsel be thinking?!)
Now, how about we start with your memories... Lock off the ones related to your "friends..."
(Anna, what's happening? You're struggling to remember all the positive memories with Aichi!)
"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."-NONONONONO-
-shit she's thrashing around again-
-having a full on flashback now-
-even when broken she can't part with them...-
-MEANWHILE SOMEWHERE NOT SO BLEAK AND SAD-
-the lil community of tiny Russian girls learned how to make FIRE! and with a big bundle of sticks and a tree made a big bondfire! they surround it cheering mutely raising sticks with fishes and totally not stolen marshmallows in to the air-''

LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!(It's already slipping, Anna. The memories you have of Leos and Sthesia, when they cared for you when you lost your arm, Ori, how you fought with your sisters to try and resist the big guns robot, all are disappearing.)
(Acht sighs) Hey, sis, before you get any weird ideas, I was just helping Aichi with his headaches. Right, kid?
Hmph.
Hey, don't act jealous!

"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."Sesto.
Yes, Master?
Start uploading the data.
(Yes, Master.)
(And thus the reprogramming begins...)
(Nono grins) That's good, Aichi. As long as my Knight is okay.
Geez, sis. He's just a kid. Tone down the flirting.

-Aichi's a teenager, not a kid (Really though, not like Aichi acts like what you'd expect a teenager to act like)...-
-However, he chooses to stay silent about that.-
-Instead, he focuses on 'Sthesia'. Seeing her grin makes him happy, but he can't help but feel bad that she felt the need to come check up on him.-
"S-Sorry... I didn't mean to worry you..."
-With her around he has nothing to worry about. It just seems like she knows exactly what to do to make him feel better...-
-He's always been attached to her...-
-...He... can't really remember why, but he's been feeling something for her for long as he can remember...-
-He's thankful that she wanted to check on him. It means a lot to him...-
"...Thank you, Sthesia."
-A small blush may be visible on his face.-
-The kid's hopeless around Nono, Acht.-
Edited by CrystalMemoria on Jul 29th 2018 at 4:28:43 AM
Don't worry about it, my Knight. (Nono gives Aichi a small peck on his cheek.)
I wish I had a bucket...
(And thus the programming continues, with either of the Sthesias or -EX- remaining oblivious to the box's flashing.)

"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."(cocktinuing! This will be a slow crawl over many days to the weekend thing...)
Midna and Gracia
(Undeterred, the massive hand swipes for them again, with a certain gingerness not unlike a cat wishing to snag a little mouse alive in its paw.)
(The panels on the ceiling open up, revealing a black abyss above them... And a pale fellow
◊ suspended high above them in a harness, with sleek, white little metal gloves on his weirdly pointy and nasty mitts.)
Oh, I'm sure you have, principesa mia! This one, though, she will be very special. Long have I sculpted her beautiful features, like the grandest Venus imaginable, a perfect goddess...
Sandra and Eires
(Her golden, bulging canine eyes are visible through her silken hair just long enough for Sandra to put her under her spell...!)
BBBFFGHH—... roooooooooo... mmf... godnatt...
(FLOMP... she snorin... aww she looks so cute just sleeping like that...)
(still a nasty little trickle of blood from her mouth tho.)
Panos...!
(...has begun to try and entertain himself by counting the cracks in the ceiling.)
...trias... tessera... pente... iksi... n-no, wait, that's—... that's just a spider...

??? (Aichi)
-Well, he's definitely not a fan of them.-
"Not really..."
-If he has to he will, but...-
"..."
-This whole thing is bothering him... It all just feels... off...-
-Pretty easy to tell he's worrying about this.-
