**[01:34] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Isabel...<br>**[01:36] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm getting used to my new life.<br>**[01:41] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How about you?<br>**[01:46] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are you sleeping well?<br>**[02:08] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That's dangerous, Ruth.<br>**[02:10] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;S-Sorry. I was so happy,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I couldn't stop myself.<br>**[02:14] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Welcome home, Ruth.<br>**[02:17] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm home, Chise.<br>**[02:21] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Silver.<br>**[02:23] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How's Elias?<br>**[02:27] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Still?<br>**[02:31] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias...<br>**[02:34] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It seems like breakfast is ready.<br>**[02:40] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sorry.<br>**[02:42] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Can you tell Silver that I don't<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;need to eat today, either?<br>**[02:48] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I wonder what's wrong with him.<br>**[02:50] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's been two weeks since we got back from the<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;church, and he still hasn't come out of his room.<br>**[02:55] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why don't you open the door and ask?<br>**[03:06] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Let's go, Ruth.<br>**[03:11] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe the transformation from<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the fight took a toll on him.<br>**[03:15] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Transformation?<br>**[03:16] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It takes a lot of energy to<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;change your appearance, maybe?<br>**[03:21] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why do you say that like a question?<br>**[03:23] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I can't quite remember.<br>**[03:25] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe it hasn't quite hit<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;me that I'm a fairy.<br>**[03:31] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are you settled in now?<br>**[03:33] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You've been exploring the<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;property this whole time.<br>**[03:37] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's something I need to do.<br>**[03:39] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Instinctively.<br>**[03:41] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a dog?<br>**[03:43] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't want to admit it, but yeah.<br>**[03:57] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What's this?<br>**[03:59] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;W-Wait, Silky.<br>**[04:01] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What is it, Chise?<br>**[04:10] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I-I don't know what just happened,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;but we got kicked out.<br>**[04:17] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"For a change of pace.<br>**[04:19] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Be back before it gets dark."<br>**[04:23] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It looks like she gave us some spending money.<br>**[04:25] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Looks like it.<br>**[04:29] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I wonder if it's safe to<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;go out right now, though.<br>**[04:33] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You have me.<br>**[04:35] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hey, long time no see, Chise!<br>**[04:38] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Angelica-san.<br>**[04:40] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How've you been?<br>**[04:42] (A)**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hey, Robin.<br>**[04:44] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Um...<br>**[04:45] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias is a bit...<br>**[04:49] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No, I'm not asking about him.<br>**[04:52] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I want to know how you're doing.<br>**[04:55] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Do you have some time?<br>**[05:29] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Talk about a shopping spree.<br>**[05:30] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I can't buy any gifts for Silky, but I'm hoping<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; there's something she can use at home.<br>**[05:37] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That sounds good.<br>**[05:39] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Now, can I take a look?<br>**[05:45] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It looks like it's functioning properly.<br>**[05:48] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How do you feel?<br>**[05:50] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nothing unusual.<br>**[05:51] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She looks sleepy all the time.<br>**[05:54] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ruth!<br>**[05:55] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You seem especially tired<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;after you use magic.<br>**[06:03] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Learn to depend on people,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;or you'll screw something up...<br>**[06:06] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When you're on your own someday.<br>**[06:09] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You must be Chise's familiar.<br>**[06:12] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you.<br>**[06:13] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You seem like a good person.<br>**[06:17] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't try to do everything by yourself.<br>**[06:20] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Otherwise, what's the point<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;of having helpful neighbors?<br>**[06:25] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're hot-blooded,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;but you have a weak heart.<br>**[06:30] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You have to take care of your body.<br>**[06:34] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'll do my best.<br>**[06:41] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Speaking of which, what are<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;you doing about school?<br>**[06:43] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You could be going to school, at your age.<br>**[06:48] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't know.<br>**[06:50] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I have to take care of<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the flowers and herbs.<br>**[06:53] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Studying magic is a lot of work.<br>**[06:55] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each season has its own special chores<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to do and lessons for me to learn.<br>**[07:00] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm just content being allowed to<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;stay with Elias and the others.<br>**[07:07] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise, are you sure you<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;aren't being overly dependent?<br>**[07:13] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're young.<br>**[07:15] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You have a long time ahead of you.<br>**[07:17] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't spend your time relying<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;on handouts from others.<br>**[07:22] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You were bought by Ainsworth.<br>**[07:25] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I know you had a hard time elsewhere,<br>**[07:29] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;but you don't have to be fixed to him.<br>**[07:36] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I-I'm sorry.<br>**[07:37] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I didn't mean that.<br>**[07:39] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm sorry.<br>**[07:41] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No, I've said too much.<br>**[07:43] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That's not true.<br>**[07:46] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I know you're right.<br>**[07:52] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm sorry.<br>**[07:59] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sorry about today.<br>**[08:01] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No, thank you for caring about me.<br>**[08:06] Angelica**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't be too much of a good girl.<br>**[08:09] (A)**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;See you, Robin, newbie.<br>**[08:20] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm a coward.<br>**[08:23] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm depending on someone who<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;doesn't think anything of me.<br>**[08:27] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I tell myself that I wouldn't mind being<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;abandoned, yet I don't want to be.<br>**[08:35] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm selfish.<br>**[08:45] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I used to hate coming home<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;when the lights were on.<br>**[08:51] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise.<br>**[08:52] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes, Ruth?<br>**[08:55] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I share a little bit of many things with you.<br>**[09:00] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah.<br>**[09:01] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Senses, emotions, and even memories.<br>**[09:08] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If that event was a curse put upon<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;you, I want it to be lifted soon.<br>**[09:17] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah.<br>**[09:18] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks.<br>**[09:25] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm home.<br>**[09:29] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks for the money.<br>**[09:31] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I bought some gifts—I mean,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;some snacks and such for us.<br>**[09:39] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How's Elias?<br>**[09:45] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias,<br>**[09:47] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;are you all right?<br>**[10:10] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias, where are you?<br>**[10:13] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Eli—<br>**[10:14] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise!<br>**[10:19] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise, sorry.<br>**[10:21] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I can't control my body very well.<br>**[10:24] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It might be scary, but let me stay this way.<br>**[10:31] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Will you explain things to me in the morning?<br>**[10:37] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah.<br>**[10:38] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't worry.<br>**[10:48] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An inhuman body.<br>**[10:51] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Limbs,<br>**[10:53] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;face,<br>**[10:55] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;neck.<br>**[10:58] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The reason I'm not scared must be<br>**[11:03] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;because I'm cursed.<br>**[11:23] (Flashback) Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I shouldn't have given birth to you.<br>**[11:33] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias...<br>**[11:36] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias?<br>**[12:05] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Morning, Silky.<br>**[12:08] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Have you seen Elias?<br>**[12:11] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Okay.<br>**[12:13] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ruth, it's time for breakfast.<br>**[12:18] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks, Silky.<br>**[12:43] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise-kun.<br>**[12:45] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Good to see you here.<br>**[12:46] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are you feeling better now?<br>**[12:48] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes, thank you.<br>**[12:51] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stay away.<br>**[12:52] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You seem fake.<br>**[12:55] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ruth, why did you shrink?<br>**[12:58] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I can move with you easier in this form.<br>**[13:01] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I see.<br>**[13:02] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You must be her familiar.<br>**[13:04] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You have a good big brother now.<br>**[13:06] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stare...<br>**[13:09] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Um, have you seen Elias?<br>**[13:12] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ainsworth?<br>**[13:14] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sorry, I don't—<br>**[13:16] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you.<br>**[13:18] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wait, so soon?<br>**[13:20] Simon**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I think he's rubbing off on you!<br>**[13:26] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Where is he?<br>**[13:30] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You must really love him.<br>**[13:33] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wh-Why?<br>**[13:36] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're afraid of him being gone.<br>**[13:38] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;More than that, you're worried.<br>**[13:42] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But...<br>**[13:43] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why do you try to deny it?<br>**[13:46] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's important to love<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;something other than yourself.<br>**[13:51] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's important both to protect that<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;something, as well as for your own sake.<br>**[13:58] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I love you, and I'll always love Isabel.<br>**[14:02] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is that wrong?<br>**[14:07] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I wish it were that easy.<br>**[14:11] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're so obstinate.<br>**[14:20] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Well, hello.<br>**[14:22] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hello.<br>**[14:24] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I haven't seen you before.<br>**[14:26] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We just moved here recently.<br>**[14:29] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is that so?<br>**[14:31] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's remote, but it's nice here, isn't it?<br>**[14:34] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Feel free to come see my<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;garden, if you're interested.<br>**[14:38] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The queens will be happy, too.<br>**[14:43] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hey, you're a Sleigh Beggy.<br>**[14:45] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That's unusual!<br>**[14:47] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Speak of me, and I'll eat you.<br>**[14:50] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A Leannán Sídhe.<br>**[14:52] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She's a vampire that grants a man<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;talent in exchange for his blood.<br>**[14:56] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Meanwhile, you're just a doggy.<br>**[14:59] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aren't your kind interested in younger men?<br>**[15:02] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Suck that man's blood,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and he'll die in an instant.<br>**[15:05] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So, you're Thorn's bride.<br>**[15:08] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Apprentice.<br>**[15:09] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hey!<br>**[15:12] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Would you two like to come in for tea?<br>**[15:15] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Go get some rest, Chise.<br>**[15:18] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You look pale from your lack of sleep.<br>**[15:21] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'll let you know if I find him.<br>**[15:22] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ruth.<br>**[15:24] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mess with her, and I'll<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;rip you apart, vampire.<br>**[15:32] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I live alone here, so I've been longing for someone to have some tea with me.<br>**[15:38] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm Joel Garland.<br>**[15:41] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What about you?<br>**[15:43] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise Hatori.<br>**[15:45] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That's an amazing book collection.<br>**[15:47] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I like books.<br>**[15:49] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I write my own, occasionally.<br>**[15:51] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's quite enjoyable.<br>**[15:53] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I have a short story, actually.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Could I ask you to read it?<br>**[15:57] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Um, uh, but...<br>**[16:01] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Do you not have time?<br>**[16:04] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm not good at reading.<br>**[16:06] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It might take a long time.<br>**[16:08] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That's all right.<br>**[16:26] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It was a love story.<br>**[16:29] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A simple story about two people<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;who meet in a rose garden.<br>**[16:34] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But there was something nostalgic about it.<br>**[16:46] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wasn't it a nice story?<br>**[16:49] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes, but it didn't seem like you<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;were giving him the talent.<br>**[16:58] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why are you haunting him?<br>**[17:00] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're not taking his blood, either.<br>**[17:03] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I felt like our eyes met that<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;day, in the rose garden.<br>**[17:16] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's not like he's my type!<br>**[17:18] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He's old, and a skinny slob to boot!<br>**[17:21] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He doesn't have anything he's devoting<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;his life to or anything, either,<br>**[17:27] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;so I can't take his blood.<br>**[17:30] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And I can't give him what I otherwise could.<br>**[17:33] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't know what to do.<br>**[17:37] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe, since you're a human,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;you understand how I feel.<br>**[17:46] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sorry. I can't believe I dozed off.<br>**[17:50] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I've been really sleepy lately.<br>**[17:52] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Was that story about the roses here?<br>**[17:57] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You got me.<br>**[18:00] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I once saw someone very beautiful<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;here, a long time ago.<br>**[18:05] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It might have been a daydream,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;but it must have been...<br>**[18:20] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Joel-san?<br>**[18:21] Joel**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Oh, it's nothing.<br>**[18:26] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I feel like our eyes met again just now.<br>**[18:30] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Was it because of you?<br>**[18:36] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are you in lo—<br>**[18:40] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That's not the answer I'm looking for.<br>**[18:43] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We love by consuming and giving.<br>**[18:47] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So I don't love him.<br>**[18:53] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Come give him a visit again.<br>**[18:54] Redcurrant**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It'll make him happy.<br>**[18:56] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Uh, okay.<br>**[19:08] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's not a word that I deserve to say<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;when all I can think about is myself.<br>**[19:13] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise.<br>**[19:14] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ruth.<br>**[19:15] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I found him.<br>**[19:18] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He's in the forests north of the house.<br>**[19:43] Ruth**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Over there.<br>**[20:02] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chise.<br>**[20:03] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It's dangerous to come<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;into the forest at dusk.<br>**[20:06] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I left you a note saying<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'd be home by night.<br>**[20:08] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You aren't going to tell<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;me anything, are you?<br>**[20:13] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why this is happening, what<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;kind of creature you are...<br>**[20:20] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You always avoid me when I ask.<br>**[20:24] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're always quick to understand.<br>**[20:28] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You accepted what I said<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;without questioning me.<br>**[20:32] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That doesn't mean...<br>**[20:34] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No matter how selfish I am,<br>**[20:37] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;it's not like I'm so disinterested in you<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;that I can bear not knowing about you.<br>**[20:43] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I've never seen you make such a face.<br>**[20:47] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Was I making a weird face?<br>**[20:50] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yes, I've never seen you like that.<br>**[20:52] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Were you looking for me the whole time?<br>**[20:55] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I left you a note and everything.<br>**[20:57] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Huh?<br>**[20:58] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What?<br>**[20:58] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You're making a scary face.<br>**[21:00] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are you asking me to just take that note and<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;leave you, with the way things were going?<br>**[21:04] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I may accept everything you say,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;but if you vanish on me like that...<br>**[21:12] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why were you resting here?<br>**[21:15] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;My body's out of balance.<br>**[21:17] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I was here adjusting.<br>**[21:21] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Half of what he says is a lie.<br>**[21:24] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I think.<br>**[21:25] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I didn't mind him trying to<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;gloss things over before.<br>**[21:29] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why am I so scared now?<br>**[21:34] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As for any other questions you may have<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;about me, could you give me a little time?<br>**[21:40] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I want time to gather my thoughts.<br>**[21:46] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'll be waiting, then.<br>**[21:50] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Are you angry?<br>**[21:52] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm not angry.<br>**[21:53] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Not *angry*.<br>**[21:55] Elias**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What are you thinking about, then?<br>**[21:57] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I told you, I'm not...<br>**[21:59] Merituuli**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Kaboosh!<br>**[22:02] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Elias!<br>**[22:05] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A fairy?<br>**[22:07] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Echos' familiar.<br>**[22:10] Merituuli**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"From Lindenbaum to Thorn."<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I have a message from Lindel-sama.<br>**[22:15] Merituuli**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"I have business with the child<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;you foster. Come quickly..."<br>**[22:20] Merituuli**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"To the land of dragons."<br>**[23:55] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The girl visits the land of<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;dragons for a second time.<br>**[23:58] Chise**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;There, she learns of a side to the mage<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that she'd never known before.<br>**[24:03] (A)**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It came as certain as the night.<br>
