Maho: Wha–?! It’s not like that! |
Faris: Don’t be so embarrassed, nya! I’m happy you seem to like your present, too, nya! |
Faris: Those panda pajamas look great on you, nya, just as I thought! |
Maho: I-It’s not that I like them! |
Maho: It’s just rude not to wear something that’s a gift. |
Maho: I don’t mind the fact that it fits perfectly, but this is definitely a child’s size... |
Faris: You’re like a little doll, so I’m sure anything looks good on you, Maho-nyan! |
Maho: Stop calling me that, I said. |
Maho: And please, don’t think you’re going to make me wear a different pair of animal pajamas every day. |
Faris: Nyah?! |
Maho: W-What?! |
Faris: Maho-nyan, can you read minds, nya? |
Faris: How did you know I already had a week’s worth lined up, nya? |
Maho: You already bought them?! |
Moeka: Heheh... |
Maho: Kiryu? |
Faris: Moe-nyan? |
Moeka: S-Sorry. I didn’t mean... to laugh... but... |
Moeka: Heheh... |
Faris: Moe-nyan! That smile is so cute, nya! Let me see more, nya! |
Faris: Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle! |
Moeka: S-Stop it– Haha... Stop–! |
Moeka: No, no– Ahhh– |
Faris: ...I feel like I’m doing something naughty, nya. |
Maho: ...Yeah. |
Moeka: Haha... hahh... hahahh... |
Faris: It sure is nyamazing, though. |
Maho: ...Yeah. |
Faris: An amazing rack, nya. |
Moeka: S-Sorry... Hahh... Hahh... Sorry... |
Maho: Well, whatever. Okay, let’s start the party! |
Faris: Okay! Bring the chilled drinks, nya! |
Faris: Tonight... no one gets any sleep, nyan! |
Moeka: I’m writing a novel... for fun. |
Faris: Let me read it, nya! |
Moeka: I can’t... I haven’t even finished the first chapter. |
Faris: I’m not going to quit being a maid, but I want to get married, nya! I want a lot of kids, nyan! |
Maho: Kiryu? What’s wrong? |
Moeka: ... |
Faris: You getting tired, nya? |
Moeka: ...That’s not it. |
Moeka: I’m scared of the future... |
Maho: Scared of the future? |
Moeka: ...Yeah. |
Moeka: Once there’s an AI that’s better than humans, I think a lot of people are going to lose their jobs. |
Moeka: I’ll probably be one of them. |
Moeka: And that scares me. |
Maho: It’s okay, Kiryu. |
Faris: That’s right, nya! You don’t need to worry, nya! |
Moeka: ... |
Moeka: ...I don’t have any special talents or smarts like you two. |
Moeka: Anyone can take my place. |
Moeka: Anyone can do a better job than me. |
Moeka: I’m not as talented as you two. |
Maho: ... |
Maho: ...So what? |
Maho: So someone could take your place. So someone’s better than you. So what? |
Faris: ...Maho-nyan? |
Maho: There are a lot of scientists who are more talented than I am. |
Maho: And maybe someday the AI I invent will write a paper better than I ever could. |
Maho: But so what? |
Maho: At Dr. Leskinen’s lab at Viktor Chondria University, the nearest desk to the entrance is my seat. |
Maho: The door wasn’t put on right and the wind always blows through it, and you can always hear people chattering in the hallway, but it’s my seat. |
Maho: Even if the universe itself were to end, I’m not giving that seat up to anyone. |
Maho: Even if a more talented scientist or a more talented AI wants it, I’m not giving it up. |
Moeka: ... |
Maho: I won’t tell you that no one can take anybody else’s place. That’s just a platitude. |
Maho: There really aren’t that many jobs in society where you’re truly irreplaceable. |
Maho: But that doesn’t mean you have to just hand everything over. |
Maho: Because I’m me, not someone else. |
Moeka: ... |
Moeka: ...I am... me... |
Maho: And it doesn’t matter how talented you are. |
Maho: Let’s say there was a bio-robot that was identical to Faris right down to the molecular level, and it could do a better job of serving you than she could. |
Maho: I’d still rather ask Faris. |
Maho: Even it cost me ten times or a hundred times more, I wouldn’t ask the robot. |
Maho: There’s no real reason for this. |
Maho: I just want to drink the tea she makes me. |
Maho: That’s what I’m saying. |
Maho: So, um... |
Moeka: ... |
Faris: ... |
Maho: S-Sorry. I just kind of– |
Moeka: ... |
Moeka: I am me... |
Moeka: Maybe... I am. |
Faris: Maho-nyan! |
Maho: W-W-Wait! W-What’s going on?! |
Faris: That was so moving, nya! I didn’t realize mew loved me so much! |
Faris: I love mew, too! I’ll make you tea for the rest of your life, nya! |
Maho: Huh?! Is that what I just said? |
Rintaro: Come to think of it, I’ve come to Akihabara five days in a row. |
Mayuri: What’s going on with Faris, you think? |
Rintaro: I don’t know. I never can tell what she’s thinking. |
Rintaro: Did something happen to Hiyajo and Moeka? |
Rintaro: Everything seemed normal when I talked to Faris yesterday... |
Mayuri: That’s not true. |
Mayuri: Faris has been working really hard the last few weeks, and she’s getting really tired. |
Mayuri: But she never complains. No matter how hard it gets, she’s always cheerful. |
Mayuri: But this time, she’s actually come to you for help. |
