( Valentines for Arthas, Chromie, Iris and Touko )
[ Anyone who's seen Ceres before can tell easily that there's something different about her. Again. But it isn't her eye color. In fact, this does seem to be Ceres, but a gentler, more talkative Ceres. ]
Good afternoon, everyone. I hope you're all doing well. This flood does not seem to be a terribly unpleasant one, though that is always still a possibility. We find ourselves so often here in close quarter and desperate situations from which there does not seem to be an escape. What moments of happiness we can find here should be treasured.
Valentine's Day is tomorrow, a holiday on which it is custom for women to show their affection towards others, be it romantic or friendly. I see no reason to wait, and the words may fail me later.
[ Why yes, it's a speech. ]
I wish to extend my thanks and apologies alike to all of those on this ship who have extended towards me their friendship. There are not many of you, and I have not treated you overly kindly. In truth, strange though it may seem to you, I have never had a friend before. Human men have always been to me little more than potential seed or abuser or both, and human women were an irrelevant distraction. It is rare that I have ever met one of my own kind, and there have been no others with whom I might spend time. This does not excuse my behavior, but I hope perhaps it can explain it.
I have always been a woman with a mission, and now without the means to accomplish my goals I find myself lost. I cannot ask you to be patient with me, but I can hope.
That is all.
