Happy birthday, (Captain). It gives me great relief that I can continue celebrating your birthday this year.
What's with that reaction? Is it really so strange to hear that I genuinely enjoy celebrating with you?
Sure I was hiding some of my true colors before, but that doesn't mean I didn't like you.
I would be sad if anything ever happened to you.
I sounded so out of character just now, didn't I? I'll leave it to you whether to believe me or not.
Today's your birthday, isn't it? Happy birthday, (Captain).
You've matured a bit over the past year, haven't you? Though you're still naive in many ways.
Hm, you don't appreciate being treated like a child? Nevertheless I must say it's adorable when you pout like that.
I mean that as a compliment. Expressing your feelings openly isn't something everyone is capable of doing.
Of course, being open can sometimes cause friction with others, so it depends on the situation.
But just be yourself when you're with me. I promise to accept you as you are, (Captain).
(Captain), this is from me. For your birthday.
I know I've given you one before, but I made another portrait of you. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
Choose: Aha ha... Oh, come on, that forced laugh... You're doing it just to mess with me, right?
Choose: Hmm... You're thinking too hard... That helpless look of yours is really getting on my nerves.
Pfft... Haha...
Oh, sorry. Your genuine reaction was just too endearing. I couldn't help but smile.
If you were still tiptoeing around me like before, I might've given you a good hard slap.
Keep showing me your true self. Just me, no one else.
Happy New Year, (Captain). I'm sorry for calling on you so early in the morning.
Somehow... I just felt like watching the sunrise on New Year's Day.
Do you remember how I said it was cruel that the sun rises for everyone?
Even though I've shed so much blood, the sun is still rising so beautifully in front of me... Is it mocking me?
No... Probably not. The skies are vast—my problems are tiny in comparison.
But that's exactly why I'd like to help keep the small parts of the sky that I can reach as peaceful as possible.
I want to find a way to live my life that will allow me to do that, by journeying with you.
Anyway, I wanted to tell you what I've decided on. A New Year's resolution, if you will.
For some reason, I wanted you to know. Thanks for staying by my side through all of this, (Captain).
Happy New Year. (Captain), have you already decided on your New Year's resolution?
I'm feeling a bit of deja vu from this conversation already. Ah, the nostalgia.
I was so consumed by revenge that I never even thought about my own future.
I didn't believe I had one.
Yet here I am, alive and well. Maybe I can discover my future through our journey together.
For some reason, I can't help but speak my true feelings when I'm around you, (Captain). You have the strangest effect on me.
Say, (Captain). Are you hungry?
I made some traditional New Year's dishes. Of course, every one of them is delicious.
Um, even if they... don't look terribly spectacular. I might... have messed up the plating. Just a tiny bit.
Hey! I saw that snicker! As if you could deceive my eyes!
Well, if you aren't bothered by their appearance, why don't you come closer? I'll feed you myself.
Though, should my hand happen to slip and ram it down your throat, you have my apologies.
Here you go—chocolate for Valentine's. Be grateful for them.
I don't need to win you over for anything anymore, so it did occur to me that making chocolate for you is pointless now...
But it didn't feel right to suddenly stop, so I made some this year too. Next year will depend on how I feel at the time. (Captain) puts on a big smile and thanks Haaselia for the chocolate.
You look ecstatic... Does my chocolate make you that happy?
(If you look at me like that, I'll have to make chocolate for you next year too...)
You're bad in your own way, you know that?
Here you go—Valentine's chocolates. You were expecting this, weren't you?
I can tell just by looking at your face.
Normally, people would be embarrassed and try to hide their feelings.
I must say it feels nice to see a genuine reaction when offering a gift. Choose: You happy?
Huh? Th-that wasn't about myself; I was just speaking in general terms! Choose: In other words, you're happy.
Enough about that. Unless you want to suffocate from having the chocolates shoved deep down your throat. Feeling the murderous intent behind Haaselia's smile, (Captain) immediately falls silent.
Hey, (Captain). I’m sure you knew it was coming... Here.
Have you ever thought about why I give you chocolate every year?
Why I always take the time to make it by hand?
It's because I like you, (Captain).
I mean, you're so fun to tease. Messing with you is just the best.
Wonder how you’ll react next. You’ve got more chocolates coming your way next year.
Hehe... The thought alone makes me smile.
That's in return for Valentine's, right? It's obvious.
You remember what I said on Valentine's Day and want to gain my favor again, right?
Or at least... that's what I'd like to think, but knowing you, you probably just want to give me a gift out of sincerity.
Unless that's actually part of some master plan you have.
I'm only kidding. You're still young, and your innocent reactions amuse me—sometimes I just like seeing them.
Hehe. Well, thank you for your gift. I'm looking forward to next year's as well.
A thank-you gift for Valentine's? My, what a commendable gesture.
Hm, being awfully cautious, aren't you? Don't tell me you're still hung up about what happened on Valentine's.
Please, that was nothing more than a joke.
I thought we were close enough to have a bit of playful banter.
Besides, you're partly to blame too for teasing me all the time.
Anyway, don't take it seriously. There's no way I could hate you after all that's happened.
This may seem unbecoming of me, but you should trust me more since we'll be traveling together for a long time to come.
Found you, (Captain). Can you close your eyes for a second? Spotting a paintbrush in Haaselia's hand, (Captain) takes a step back.
Ah, rather sharp, aren't you? I noticed you were rather repulsed by my drawings before.
I know I'm not the best at drawing, but I still get hurt when you do that, you know?
You don't mean it badly—I understand. But, still...
It's Halloween. Why don't you just give in and let me play a little prank on you? Haaselia inches closer and closer to the captain. In the split second her guard is down, (Captain) dashes out the door.
Hey! Wait! I'm not letting you get away!
(Captain) enters Haaselia's room by her invitation, but no one seems to be present.
Got you, (Captain). The captain turns around to find the Evoker flashing a smile as she locks the door.
You managed to get away by a hair's breadth last year, but don't expect the same luck this year.
Now, prepare yourself. Unless you plan on pushing me aside to make your escape. The captain raises both arms in capitulation.
That's more like it.
Now stand still. I'm going to draw something spooky on your face.
Haha, I can't wait to see how other crew members react to it.
(Captain), you came. I thought you wouldn't show this year.
I thought you'd be too wary after what happened last year, yet here you are, ready for anything.
How noble of you. In that case I won't hesitate: let me paint your face again this Halloween. (Captain) obediently takes a seat and Haaselia gets straight to work, when—
(...
How dull. I love painting, I should be enjoying this. But something about it just feels lacking.)
(There should be, you know, something more to it than this. A little resistance, a bit of back-and-forth... What I really want is...) Choose: Are you okay? Looking a little red...
Wh-what? N-no, it's nothing! Just stay still! Haaselia lets out a small cough, and (Captain) responds with a puzzled look.

Ah, (Captain). What're you doing loitering around here? The party's that way.
Huh? You came to see me? You're a strange one.
I... remembered some things from the past and wanted some time alone.
Lively occasions make me think about the children, you see...
Ahh, I shouldn't let myself get too down. I can't help but get emotional on chilly days like this.
You should hurry and get back to the party. The others might get jealous if you spend too much time with me.
After all, there are a lot of people who care about you—many more than you think.
What are you doing here, (Captain)?
Like I told you last year, give some attention to the other crew members too. I'm not the only one here.
Huh? You won't go back to the party venue unless I'm with you?
I've told you how lively places remind me of the past, right? Sigh... You really want my company, huh?
Then again, maybe it's time I stopped staying stuck in the past. Lette and the children definitely wouldn't want to see me so dispirited all the time.
I feel like I'm being spun around in the palm of your hand. Did you foresee me reacting this way?
Yet I don't feel bothered in the least, oddly enough. It just goes to show your strength of character. Fine, let's go inside.
Though I'm going to have to ask you to take responsibility if this doesn't end up as a wonderful memory for me.
Oh, (Captain). What wonderful timing! Would you mind carrying some of this for me?
It's all presents for the children. They're too heavy for me to carry on my own.
While I'm not sure that this is exactly what they've been wishing for, seeing their happy faces will be enough for me.
Is there one for you? Well, maybe...
Hmm, or maybe not? Only time will tell!
It might come down to how much effort you put into carrying these packages. If you'd like a present of your own, you'd better hustle!
Exceed my expectations, and you might even get the best one of the bunch. Heehee!
