Episode 40
So, in New York, Diva is singing in a garden:
SHOTA OPERA YEAAAAAAAH BOI
o snap Solomon's wearin a black suit now...SHIT'S SO DEEP
Their New York pad
So, Nathan comes out to listen:
she can feel her rape children
NATHAN: "What's wrong?"
[She says nothing, just continues looking down]
NATHAN: "Diva?"
MY GOD THAT FOREHEAD
[Diva takes a bite into Nathan's neck, but he enjoys it. A little too much.]
NATHAN: "This feels good...My blood is becoming a part of my Queen's. This is a moment of bliss for a Chevalier."
drink who I want don't give a fuck
[But Nathan does give a fuck and is starting to get nervous]
NATHAN: "Diva...Wait, Diva..."
[He tries to pry her off]
NATHAN: "Wait a moment, this is a little too much. If you keep going, I'll get sucked dry..."
"you whiny bitch"
[But Diva says nothing and just starts to sing again. Amshel shows up by Nathan, though.]
AMSHEL: "It seems that Diva's done you in."
DIVA: "She's been so tense lately...Diva, that is. I wonder how the other Queen is doing..."
[After an ANGST FEST about Saya, it's back to the garden, and now Amshel is watching Diva--but Nathan brings wine]
NATHAN: "You seem like her father whenever you're watching her."
AMSHEL: "I am nothing more than one of her admirers. I look forward to the moment when she will shine forth from the stage. You as well, right?"
NATHAN: "I merely wish to let Diva give her best performance, singing on the greatest stage of all. That's all. I would like to ask you just one thing, though."
AMSHEL: "What is it?"
NATHAN: "What's your wish?"
AMSHEL: "Diva's wish is my wish."
NATHAN: "Then you should have brought Saya's Chevalier to Diva early on."
AMSHEL: "If Diva had wished for it, I would have done so. However, Diva did not choose him."
NATHAN: "Oh, I see...That's too bad..." [But Nathan's expression says "yeah right, Amshel"]
AMSHEL: "I have been working hard, moving the world for the sake of Diva's happiness. That will remain the same. I will eliminate those who stand in the way. That is all."
NATHAN: "Then...does that include Solomon?"
[Diva had run off into the woods during this conversation, so we go back to her--Solomon is walking towards her]
she's happy to see him!
After the commercial break, Solomon is kneeling before her:
SOLOMON: "It's been too long."
AMSHEL: "Solomon. What's your business here now?"
SOLOMON: "I came to speak to Diva."
AMSHEL: "Speak to her?"
SOLOMON: "Indeed. To speak of the distant past and the imminent future. [To Diva] Do you remember the day that I first met you?"
DIVA: "You were wearing white, right?"
SOLOMON: "Yes. It was near the end of the first world war, when I had finally started my career as a physician. I met you in the cellar of Brother's chateau."
this is Amshel's chateau
this is sleepy!diva
[Flashback time! We see Amshel taking Solomon to the cellar, then cutting his own hand with a dagger]
SOLOMON: "Brother Amshel..."
The smell of Amshel's blood makes Diva wake up, lookin' a hot mess
AMSHEL: "It seems that she likes you."
just because this is also a bit creepy.
If you can't tell, she's licking the blood from his hand. This is a lot more obvious with the slurping sounds.
AMSHEL: "This is my treasure...
what the hell, have the other one, too
this one looks worse........
AMSHEL: "The most important thing to me, the proof of my existence."
[Amshel stands with his sword, and she makes all these moaning noises. THIS SCENE IS SO DIRTY, I REALIZE...]
AMSHEL: "Are you ready, Solomon?"
Diva is, because it means more hot dickings.
I mean what?
SOLOMON: "I am."
AMSHEL: "The man Solomon Goldsmith shall die here tonight. When Diva has granted you her blood, you shall become my true family, bound by blood."
SOLOMON: "If that means I can attain my ideals..."
I have to be gay for a moment and interject how much I love how they do her eyes in the series.
[So Amshel stabs Solomon through the heart]
AMSHEL: "Farewell, Solomon Goldsmith."
Then back to the present:
SOLOMON: "And from then on, I became your Chevalier. I felt as though, being liberated from my former life, I was forgiven for my previous deeds of killing fellow humans. After the war, I thought that peace would come. However, in reality, upon becoming a Chevalier and being granted nearly eternal life, all I could see was the insignificance of the human race. That was it. From the view of the human value system, I thought that my former life was trivial. I saw humans as foolish and ugly creatures. To put it simply, I was full of joy, having been released from that world. For the first time, I was able to find peace. But even in our world, there was still conflict...The conflict between you and Saya."
moe
DIVA: "Sister Saya is the one who wants to fight."
SOLOMON: "Indeed. But I could not think of her as an enemy..."
DIVA: "She tries to kill me!"
SOLOMON: "I know that."
DIVA: "Do you..."
no longer shota, because this is bs, solomon
DIVA: "...really like Saya?"
SOLOMON: "I love her. And so I want her to live on."
[Diva's back to shota mode]
DIVA: "Even if it means my death?"
DIVA: "I also want to live together with Sister Saya. But even more than that.."
[But Diva speeds away and clings to Amshel]
DIVA: "From today on, you are no longer my Chevalier. Solomon is the Chevalier who has strayed from his path. But I'll tell you this. No matter how hard you try, you can never be Saya's Chevalier. If you wish to haver her, then take her hand and have her bear your children."
[Diva runs off to the mansion. Amshel ain't pleased.]
AMSHEL: "Do you expect to walk out of here just like this?"
SOLOMON: "There isn't anything as futile as our fighting amongst ourselves. Only Saya's blood can kill us."
AMSHEL: "Do you care to test that?"
[Solomon speeds forward, but before he even gets close, Amshel severs his arm]
AMSHEL: "Come."
[FIGHTING]
NATHAN: "That's enough! This is my home. If you do any more damage, we'll soon have to look for a new place to live...And besides..."
[Nathan gestures to a window where we see a shot of Nathan (or what's left of him) in a tube, with Diva sleeping against it]
SOLOMON: "James..."
NATHAN: "They're both fast asleep."
AMSHEL: "Solomon, you said you loved Saya, did you not?"
SOLOMON: "Yes."
AMSHEL: "That's because the Chevalier's blood inside you desires her."
SOLOMON: "If that is indeed so, wouldn't that mean that our love for Diva is just Chevalier's instinct? Even now, my desire to serve Diva has not changed. I am proud of having served as Diva's Chevalier. But I, too...have my own life. I, as Solomon Goldsmith, will be with Saya."
AMSHEL: "Solomon...If you try to have Saya, it will mean that you will kill her before we kill her ourselves."
