Does anyone know the reason for those... figures made of liquid? If someone could explain it, I'd appreciate it. [Awkward pause.] Ah... Even the news channel that we now receive did not elaborate much. Since when did they begin to broadcast so much?

Um... I have heard the use of "-fest" as a suffix before. Junpei-san taught me its meaning. A so-

[laughing]

Oh dear. How innocent.

As for holidays... Christmas was always my favorite so I hope people will celebrate it here.

voice;

[metatronius]

Hm? [Why you laughing pretty lady]

Ah, I hope so too. It would be my first Christmas, though I am aware of its importance.

voice;

[cloversong]

Oh, it's nothing... Perhaps you should ask this "Junpei-san" about what it means the next time you see him.

Your first? So you've never celebrated it before? What a shame to have to celebrate it in a place like this.

voice;

[metatronius]

Christmas is about being together with friends and family and exchanging gifts, so I don't mind if I have to celebrate here. It's the meaning behind it that counts. Of course, Christmas Eve is even more special... Ah, but I wouldn't be able to celebrate that.

voice;

[cloversong]

I guess I can't argue with that.

Oh? Why not? What makes Christmas Eve so special?

voice;

[metatronius]

Well... is Christmas Eve not the day to spend time with someone you love?

voice;

[cloversong]

Hmm... maybe, but...

You should spend every moment you're alive with the person that you love not just one special night.

voice;

[metatronius]

Oh... I agree. [Aigis pauses, thinking over her words. Though it feels somewhat awkward. 'Every moment', huh? She too felt the same way. She too... cherished every moment spent with him. But she couldn't do that anymore.]

That's just the custom I know of for Christmas Eve.

voice;

[cloversong]

That's not a custom I'm familiar with, to be honest. But I like it. [She would had loved to spend Christmas Eve with Kazuhiko.]

I hope this Christmas you can spend it with someone you care for.

voice;

[metatronius]

That probably won't be possible... but thank you.

voice;

[cloversong]

Not even a friend to spend it with? Maybe that isn't the 'special someone' you wish it to be but it's better than being alone.

voice;

[metatronius]

Oh, I have friends I could spend it with. I was simply thinking...

voice;

[cloversong]

...

I believe I understand. I'm sorry if I brought up something painful.

voice;

[metatronius]

No, it's all right. [She had to get over what happened to him, somehow. Somehow she had to proceed with her "life", but she didn't know how.]

Um, I'm Aigis. Who are you?

voice;

[cloversong]

I'm Oruha. It's nice to meet you, Aigis.
