Outside    (Primero)   

-He can be Kinnikuman's student?!-

   "Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh?! R-Really?!"   

-The kid looks extremely excited now.-

-'Artificial'... Zwei's said that word before!-

   "Uh huh! I think so! Ovi said we were 'failures', but then my brothers said we're all better than that 'Aichi Sendou' guy even if Ovi thinks we're failures!"   

-...The kid and his brothers were considered failures?-

Main Room (Aichi)

-He needs to tell them that he saw Acht.-

-He has to. If he tells them as soon as possible that he saw her, then they might be able to find her before it's too late.-

-However, he's also feeling that nagging 'don't tell them', 'you need to help Acht escape', and other such thoughts and feelings in his head.-

-So... Aichi's rather conflicted, sadly. He forces himself through it, however, and finally says it:-

"...I... I sensed Acht yesterday..."

-He did?!-

"...She was outside..."

-What did he do after that, guys? He didn't go after her or anything, did he?-

-He is suffering from residual programming... What if he tried to help her or something?-

-Of course, this is Aichi we're talking about. He wouldn't go against you, and even if he did have feelings that begged him to, he'd fight against them.-

-...So what happened?-

(@Primero) Of course! (hands Primero a list of things to do for training. It has the usual core exercises, but it has a "make a Yoshinoya-style beef bowl everyday" at the end.) Always remember to do these things!

(@Primero) What? You're not a failure. I think you're a winner. This Ovi doesn't know what they're missing. On my world, the Maverick Hunters listen to those corrupt jerks who think certain Reploids who don't follow their standards are Mavericks and thus are failures.

(Leos taps his temples to clue Sthesia in.)

Oh, right. I forgot about that.

What happened, Aichi?

-Ahhhhhhhhhhh, that's a lot of reading...!-

-...-

-...He'll work on it. Maybe. Assuming he doesn't forget.-

   "...OK! I'll have Tercero help me make the bowls!"   

-Tercero knows food. If there's anyone he can trust about food, it's him!-

-...Or Cuarto when a girl is involved.-

-And as for what Yanmark is saying...-

-He's not used to people saying that he's a winner.-

-His brothers never really say anything like that. Ovi never says anything like that. And...-

-...No one else has really ever said much of anything about him.-

   "Really?! You think so?!"   

-He's really happy. He's not a failure! He's a winner!-

   "What are Mavericks? Or Maverick Hunters?"   

-He's clueless about that.-

Main Room (Aichi)

"I found her in the kitchen... She was surprised to see me, and I guess she thought I was still..."

-...Brainwashed...-

"...I really wanted to be angry with her, but I... I couldn't..."

-His tone makes it clear that he doesn't really know how to feel about the whole thing.-

"I... I tried to play along with it... To try to make her think I was still under their control, and then Cross showed up..."

-He nearly sighs.-

"...Cross told her to leave me alone, and then she found out that I broke free of their programming and... she left..."

-That's it. She just left.-

"...I don't know where she is now..."

-...So Aichi rushed in without thinking... and then Aichi and Cross let her get away?-

"I-I'm sorry... I tried to convince her that she could stay here, but she left anyway..."

-It's clear that Aichi feels guilty about this.-

(@Primero) Those your brothers?

Outside    (Primero)   

-Yep! Tercero's one of his brothers!-

   "Uh huh! Tercero's one of my brothers! He can get really loud and angry, and he thinks he's stronger than everyone else!"   

-And his other brothers...-

   "Zwei's really quiet and he's really smart! He makes machines and gadgets and all sorts of stuff all the time! But he doesn't like to spend time with me though..."   

-Aww... The kid seems rather sad about that last part.-

   "And then Cuarto's always talking about 'maidens' and 'ladies'. He wants to win the the hand of one, whatever that means. I don't get it..."   

-Primero smiles again.-

   "Together we're the Dark Egg Vanguard! Ovi's elite minions and 'entourage'! I still don't know what it means, but it must be good!"   

-Ack! So Yanmark's boss was blamed for a crime he didn't commit?!-

   "That's really bad! What'd he do that people thought was a crime?"   

-Primero doesn't want to be blamed for a crime he didn't do...-

Main Room (Aichi)

"...I really messed up..."

-He's only starting to doubt himself and how much he can be trusted more...-

"...Maybe... Maybe I can't be trusted... I-It's clear that they're still influencing me..."

-Considering his first instinct was to rush to Acht and that he can't even be angry at her.-

-Despite all of the horrible, putrid, disgusting, terrifying, twisted things they did... to him and his friends...-

-He just... he can't.-

-...And it's killing him.-

"...T-There's nothing you can do to get this to stop, is there? N-No deprogramming or anything...?"

-Something that can make him feel like himself again...?-

-Is that how it even works? Aichi doesn't know how it all works. The point is that he wants to stop feeling like those people are his friends.-

-He doesn't like the idea of hating them either, but he knows they're not his friends. He knows that they did all sorts of horrible things to him...-

-...But it's all leveled out into some weird and conflicting middle ground by residual brainwashing.-

"...E-Even after everything they did, I... I-I can't be angry at them..."

-...Yeah, he seems very distraught about that. It's driving him nuts that he can't even feel what he should be feeling.-

"I-I even told Acht that after everything they did that I'd never help them, but... I-I just couldn't get angry...!"

-He's never wanted to be angry before in his entire life.-

-...But for once, he does.-

-He can't.-

Yeah. But we're still willing to trust you, Aichi.

Main Room (Aichi)

-So... he's stuck like this then. Stuck without the ability to even express negative feelings towards those people.-

-Aichi almost feels a desire to bitterly chuckle. It's all ironic, in a way.-

-He always tried so hard to hide his negative feelings, to never express his frustration, his anger, his hatred... and now that he desperately wants to express them...-

-...He's unable to. It's as if he doesn't feel it at all.-

-Oh, sure, there's something there, but it's just... it's like it has an air tight seal over it.-

"...T-Thank you..."

-Really... For Leos and Sthesia to trust him despite that hold over him...-

-...They're better friends than he could have ever dreamed.-

-And... he wants to support them. Aichi wants to support all of his friends.-

-So many things have happened, and it all made Aichi come to a realization.-

-He can't just sit back anymore.-

-If something happens, he wants to stand against it instead of cowering behind Leos, Sthesia, Cross, Misaki, and Anna...-

-Aichi looks down at his wrist, which has the Blaster Blade armor watch on it.-

-It takes a few of seconds before he speaks again.-

"I... I thought long and hard, and I came to a decision..."

-...? A decision...?-

-What could he be talking about, guys?-

Outside    (Primero)   

-Not lapdogs like the Maverick Hunters...?-

   "I still don't get it! Are the Maverick Hunters jealous or something?"   

-He's just a kid so he doesn't really get the whole thing...-

-...He's also not exactly the smartest kid either.-
