    Summary

    "Everything I do is of the utmost importance.”

    “Like protecting humans from Shadows.”

    Aigis meets her gaze. Unlike Junpei, she does not seem perturbed by the things that mark her as being a robot. She does not blink as she responds, “Yes. Such as protecting you, as well.”

    Kotone leans over the back of an armchair, her gaze intense as she looks at Aigis. Aigis looks back unflinchingly. This is what makes her good at her duty. She will carry out her tasks until such a time as the threat is neutralized or she is no longer able to do so.

    “Having fun is important, too, Aigis. If we all just sat around here doing nothing in between our trips to Tartarus, we wouldn’t be able to even set foot in the place. You have to have some downtime, too.”

    “Perhaps humans must,” Aigis agrees. “But I was built differently, Kotone-san.”

    Aigis learns how to be human.

    Summary

    Of course she doesn’t get it. She doesn’t get that every year Kokoro has been alive has been a struggle to keep her head above the stagnant pool of misery that had claimed her mother, and there is something hideous and unnatural about no longer clawing, only stepping forward and finding something close to solid land awaiting her. Now you have to keep going, it says. You don’t get to run away.

    The future is waiting for Kokoro Akechi and she does not like it.

    Summary

    "It's nothing to be embarrassed about," Mitsumi says, her voice so tragically sincere. Mika can't look at her.

    "It would be more embarrassing if I lied about it, I guess." Mika keeps laughing. If she doesn't, she thinks she'll cry, and that would be a lot more lame than being the only one who's never been kissed.

    --

    Mika gets her first kiss. It (mostly) doesn't count.
