...Even knowing it is an experiment...doesn't seem to be changing my thoughts. How strange.

Though I am quite certain it could be much, much worse. After all, I...mm.

[you can find her, by the way, walking around outside after this post, with the occasional dreamy sigh. She has her journal and will answer voice replies, too - already affected, she's safe to talk to]

So does someone else.

Hmm.~ The experiment is having a somewhat liberating effect on people. A woman's heart is easily swayed by romance, isn't it?

I certainly hope it's Regal you're talking about, Professor.

Of course, of course! Who else would it be?

[She can't picture loving anyone else but her big, shaggy, generous teddybear.]

Some have been unfortunately split from those they love. ...And there are problems even in relationships that already...

Oh, is that so? I hadn't noticed. [It's best not to ask why, Nephry.]

So who's your lucky partner?

...Ah...well...

...If you have the time, I'd rather discuss this in person.

[There's a considerable pause here. She'd have to leave Regal behind, but despite how much she loves the guy, she loves her students as well. In that motherly fashion sort of way.]

Of course. Would you like me to stop by your house, or will you be visiting here?

I would prefer to meet somewhere...else. There's no need for me to interrupt the two of you, though.

If you aren't too worried about being overheard, we could always meet at Seventh Heaven and get a bite to eat while we're at it.

I'm sure...that many people know already.

[it's certain people in this house she doesn't want to overhear it]

Then, Seventh Heaven it is. When would you like to meet there?

Whenever you're not busy.

How about an hour from now?

That should be fine.

Then, I'll see you there.

[she will really be about ten minutes late. And Nephry is never late]

[How curious. Gelda was right on time and has already settled down at a table. Nephry may notice she looks a bit peaky, as if she hasn't been sleeping well. Whatever's the matter, it doesn't stop her from giving her former student a bright smile when she enters.]

[Nephry smiles back. The experiment may have given her mood a bit of a lift but it hasn't changed anything else]

I apologize for being late. ...Are you all right, Professor?

[Gelda merely gives a quick wave of her hand.]

Of course, of course. It's good to see you, Nephry. Have a seat.

[sits down across from Gelda and blushes again when she thinks about why she's even here]

[That certainly isn't going unnoticed. Though if anything, it brings a smile to Gelda's face.]

You look well.

Thank you. You look a little tired, are you sure things are all right?

Mm, I'm more than fine. [She pauses, glancing around the restaurant.] Should we order some drinks?

Yes, I think so.

[will order a coffee for herself]
