A Love Situation with Algernon

---

Secret Base

Ahh~ been waiting for you forever! You came to see us on this sweet sweet day?

......What is it, [Player]? State your matter quickly. Mouse squeaks are driving me nuts after receiving contact from you.

Ohh, you dummy partner! Valentine's and White day is happening in this world, you know?

I am not interested unless it is related to cleaning jobs. Besides, mouse voice is annoying, roger.

Well well--don't mind my partner, he says such things but he's actually data searching. Come come, let us accept your present gratefully, yeah!

--Scanning complete. Shape irregular. Ingredients: cacao bean, sugar, whipped cream. Evaluating hygiene conditions, status normal......Conclusion: possible for consumption.

How could you totally ignore this heart fluttering moment! That's mood killer to the MAX, partner.

Very well, at least give it a bite? OK five senses relay ready, alright hurry up and open the bag!

Mouse is even noisier than usual. Affirmative, I shall take the responsibility to clean this up.

Ohh, the two types of chocolates are......huehuehue. If you don't mind me being a smartass, this is for me and my partner right?

..........

I envy your thoughtfulness, [Player]. Now then, let's taste it with thoughts of gratitude!

After putting the chocolates into their mouth one after another. The two commented on the taste.

Milk chocolate......taste is not bad. As a high efficiency energy source for work, sugar is essential.

This dark chocolate is just what I like. It's bitter and sweet, two for the price of one!

Well partner, now that we have eaten the gift, I would like to ask your opinion on what we're going to do afterwards.

......humph, I have only one answer. A perfect work result should deserve a just reward. As for the just reward, now is the time to show my clumsy side......I guess.

I see I see, we're doing that? Our secret move will be perfect as a return gift!

Here, for you, [Player]! Here are some flowers from us, please accept it?

Two cups of Italian espressos are placed in front, on them there are latte art of full blossoms made of milk foam.

When we were still at the cognitive boost research laboratory at the university, before my partner became what he is now. He always said that he wanted to be like the others, drinking coffee or talking about poetry and philosophy with the other students......

One day when I become clever, I hope that dream will blossom for me too--this thought was always on my mind.

Amidst the slight bitterness, the caramel-like sweetness diffuses inside the mouth. Perhaps, this is the clumsy gentleness that they offered.

Please stay by his side, [Player]. Here, for my inefficient partner--for the dream we had, cheers.

'But look, this flower sure blossoms beautifully right? Looks like it was worth it when you practice behind my back, partner!

......Humph.

Ah......this is so bitter, yet delicious too.

Though we're always about efficiency, but now we feel like moments like this is quite nice, also--

--Didn't know when it started, but we began to wonder about you, right partner? Just where did you come from--and where will you go? Could you tell us more about you?

......I have spared some time while making the coffee.

I wouldn't want to throw it away before it is all finished. You're responsible--to stay and spend this time with us, [Player].

Of course, and I have prepared a lot of my partner's past to talk about! Hehe, well, where shall we begin......?
