Kiri: ok ok i'm up...
*Kiri sees Ace working at his workbench* Ah, Kiri. Good to see you again. It's been a while, and I hope you've had time to think about my offer. So what do you say?
Kiri: i'm really unsure about it....more now with all what happen over the last week
( V dude isn't gonna come anytime soon... we're just dragging and dragging... let's start and he can make the speech when he comes)
Ace: thinking: her will is even stronger than Artemis's...... if I can't convince you to join, then at least lend your support for my plans. In fact, go down to R&D and request something nice to wear and a mask. The Shizumi masquerade ball is coming up and I'd like to see you there. Consider it... a token of our... friendship. *Ace's eyes are shining brightly underneath his work goggles* You're free to go.
Zero: *stares at Artemis' room while following Atremis* These are very spactious living quaters, it is very nice Artemis *smiles*
Artemis: "Ace gave me nothing but the best, and I picked this traditional homey style because it just feels so...perfect."
