Happy Birthday Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Happy birthday! You and I are going to take on every challenge head on this year!
Every challenge you overcome makes you stronger and more charming!

2

Giving up your own time for the sake of others is a wonderful, selfless act.
But even angels shouldn't push themselves too hard. You'll just end up burning out.
See, taking good care of yourself is an absolute must when it comes to love.
You've got to live for you, not anyone else. That's the first step toward love! Sometimes you have to be selfish.
With that said, happy birthday, (Captain)! Here's to another year overflowing with love!

3

Happy birthday, (Captain)!
I can't believe another year's already passed. You just keep getting more and more reliable!
And it just so happens I have a request for Captain Reliable here.
You're kind and considerate, which is why I know you're the type to take everything upon yourself.
But that's actually very harmful.
So if you ever find yourself in that kind of situation, you should toss off the shackles and ask others for help.
You might think what you're doing is selfish or devoid of love, but you'd be surprised by the good that comes out of it.
When you overwork yourself, all the love in your heart inevitably gets squeezed out.
Never forget that we are all the same and born this way. That's all I ask of you, (Captain)!

4

Happy Birthday, (Captain)!
We've spent yet another year together... I really am blessed.
I feel like the time since the day I met you has flown by in just the blink of an eye.
I'm sure it's because every day with you has been so full of fun!
We really should cherish these fleeting moments we have together on this journey.
I just don't want to have any regrets looking back after this journey is over.
Oh no! Sorry, I shouldn't be a wet blanket on your special day...
Come, come. Everyone on the crew's prepared a magnificent party just for you!
Let's party to our heart's content—another treasured memory for the collection!

5

Happy birthday, (Captain)! Teehee, I'm sorry—I just get so excited, I end up saying it over and over again.
Both the birthday celebration and the after-party at Raduga were so much fun!
Thanks for tagging along with us, (Captain).
I hope you were able to enjoy yourself...
Really? That's wonderful to hear!
I always wish the fun things would never end... But if they don't end, then the new fun things won't be able to start.
So I am a little sad that the party's going to be over soon, but I guess all good things must come to an end.
Teehee. Since we're all charged up now, we can work hard again starting tomorrow and look forward to your next birthday celebration!
Working hard is a marvelous thing, but if you ever find yourself having worked a little too hard... Raduga's doors are always open for you. I'll be waiting!

Happy New Year Cutscenes

1

Oh my! Happy New Year! There's a lot of delicious, healthy food to ring in the new year with, so eat up now!
As for me, I think I'll have a glass of champagne! Cheers!

2

Oh dear, your eyes look a bit red.
Hehe, late night? That's New Year's for you.
I've prepared a special nutritious meal to perk you right back up!
It's chock full of my special ingredient... You guessed it! Love!
Hehe. Eat well, sleep well, and have an amazing new year, okay?

3

Happy New Year, (Captain)!
Have you already had your first dream of the season?
If it was a good one, then you'll have fun all year round!
On the other hand, a bad dream can still help prepare you to get the bad luck out of the way early on.
That's what some people who get bad fortunes at the start of the year do. They keep moving forward regardless and make their own luck.
Am I putting on too much pressure? Haha, I'm just wishing my captain to have the best year possible!

4

Happy New Year, (Captain)! Have you decided on a resolution yet?
My resolution, you say? Well, well...
To love! To love everybody!
Before that, I need to love and take care of my own body and make sure not to catch a cold or hurt myself.
And also remember to smile more... That way I can spread joy to those around me.
I need to prepare myself this year to ensure Ladiva's love reaches lots and lots of people!

5

Oh! (Captain), Happy New Year. Did you get up to watch the first sunrise of the year?
Actually, I got up early for something else. I'm gathering extra blankets right now.
You see, on a certain island, there's a custom where you drink up all of the alcohol in your house before the new year arrives.
Some people don't feel so well the next day after drinking, right? Apparently finishing up everything in the house is a symbol of clearing up your debts within the year.
We've taken up the custom at Raduga, and I had everyone help finish the alcohol for me...
But now they're all fast asleep, and there aren't enough blankets to go around!
Teehee, I'm so glad to see that everyone had such an enjoyable time!
When you get older, (Captain), let's have a drink or two together. In moderation, of course!

Valentine's Day Cutscenes

1

Hehe. Happy Valentine's Day! This rich hot chocolate I made for you is as hot as my love!
Let it soothe your spirits!

2

Ooh, you're right on time, (Captain)!
I was just putting on the finishing touches! Here you go!
Mm-hmm! It's the Ladiva Deluxe! Each piece is bursting with love!
You always give it your all, no matter the situation.
That's the (Captain) that I'll be rooting for, now and forever! Mwah!

3

Here you are, (Captain), Valentine's chocolate cake!
It's sweet and long-lasting, so you can enjoy it at your own pace.
Sweetness is a great pick-me-up when you're feeling sad or tired.
I can tell that you're someone who pushes on through difficult times. That's why you tend to not ask others for help...
So when it feels like you can't put a smile on, it'd make me very happy to know that this cake ended up helping.
And when you're buried under an avalanche of unhappiness, don't try to dig yourself out on your own!
You've always got a listener in me. I hope you won't forget that.

4

Here you are, (Captain)! Go ahead and take this cake—it is just for you.
I spruced up the decorating this year... I just hope its dazzling beauty delights you so!
Making these Valentine's Day treats every year is something I'm always excited for.
While making it, I just kept imagining your smile after taking a bite.
I hope that your smile is just the way I imagined when you actually do try it.
I really do love your smile, (Captain)... It just warms my heart every time.
No matter the task, I want to do whatever I can to keep you smiling.
Oh dear... Did I sound a little too clingy? Hee hee... It's Valentine's Day, so you'll forgive me won't you?

5

Here's a Valentine's Day present from me! I hope you like it!
Teehee, I'm glad to hear. I wasn't sure what kind of sweets you liked...
Everyone has different tastes, right?
What I think is delicious might seem much too sweet to you.
Of course, I'm just hoping that both this present and the love I put into it will bring you happiness...
But if I put too much thought into it and the person I give it to can't enjoy it from the bottom of their heart, then it'll all be for nothing.
If what I give you is too sweet or too rich and you don't find it to your taste...
You have to tell me, okay? I'll do my best to fix it! After all, what makes you happy makes me even happier!

Happy White Day!
This is a little gift from me to you.
You're always looking out for me, so this is the least I can do for you!
Hehe, please indulge this foolish heart of mine!

2

Open wide! Cookies fresh from the oven going in! Aren't they delicious? It's got just the right sweetness to nourish your heart!
Take these chocolates too and pop one into your mouth when you're feeling blue.
Of course my door's always open to you. I'll hug the gloom right out of you!
I know how hard you work, (Captain), so don't forget to spoil yourself sometimes, okay?

3

Happy White Day, (Captain)!
I've brought sweets again this year. Will you take them?
Hehe, thanks! There's nothing better than the joy of seeing your happy face!
Your smile gives me a boost of energy.
It's better than getting any kind of return gift.
I want you to always shoot that smile my way. But I know there are times when that isn't appropriate.
Don't be afraid to show me other faces too.
If you're ever sad or worried and want someone by your side...
My love and hugging powers will be the cure you need, no prescriptions necessary.

4

Happy White Day! Here, this candy's just for you.
Oh! Very smooth, (Captain). Hee hee... I appreciate the compliment.
As much as I'd like to say that love was the secret ingredient... The real key is proper measurements.
Put too much sugar in and it becomes too sweet, not to mention easy to burn. It's important to get the portions juuust right.
The same could be said for love. With too much, your partner may feel overwhelmed at times.
I just can't help myself sometimes though... Would you be so kind and tell me whenever I'm being too much?

5

Here you go! A White Day present for you! Filled to the brim with love from yours truly.
What's the matter, (Captain)? You look worried... If you're okay with talking about it, I'm here for you.
Oh! You feel bad because you're always receiving things from me?
Oh my! Did I make you feel that way? How insensible of me!
Thank you for telling me how you feel, (Captain). It's very sweet of you to think that way.
Telling you not to worry about the presents wouldn't be very sensitive of me, would it? I wouldn't want to ignore how you feel.
So... how about this? Let's exchange presents next time! That way, we can both be on the giving side!
Through exchanging gifts, the passion in our hearts can grow infinitely... What a wonderful thing!
It's loooove!

Trick or Treat Cutscenes

Trick or treat!
Oh dear! So many people mistake my fabulous attire for a Halloween costume.

2

Well, well. Everyone's ready to play their tricks I see. It's not going to be easy to clean this up.
But what's a girl to do! That's Halloween for you!
Happy Halloween, (Captain)! I wouldn't want to be tricked by you, now would I? Here you go!
Hehe, surprised? This little box has a trick up its sleeve.
Open it up here and look! The bottom's filled with candy! Hehe, enjoy!

3

Well, that does it for the treats. Now for the—
Oh, (Captain)! Hello! I'd rather not get tricked, so have some sweets instead.
It's right inside that box.
Haha! Gotcha! It's a pie filled with blue jam. I was surprised when I saw that blue goop too.
The color might be weird, but I can guarantee you it tastes good! Hehehe, this is my way of playing practical jokes.

4

Oh, (Captain). Happy Halloween! Did you get lots of candy?
Oh dear, your belly must be filled with candy, isn't it?
Hee hee... Then perhaps I'll make you a cup of tea for a treat.
Have a cup and relax for a while. You can go out and enjoy the festivities some more once you've recharged.
Halloween only comes around once a year, after all. Get your fill of fun while you can today!
Hmm? You want for me to come too? Oh my... Thank you kindly for the invitation.
Heh-heh... Maybe I'll play some tricks of my own? I'm getting kind of excited myself!

5

Oh, hello, (Captain)! Are you here to take a break after playing all those tricks and getting all that candy?
Of course! Stay as long as you like. Let me make you a nice cup of tea!
Remember how I gave you a slice of that pie with the blue jam some time ago? This year it's going to be blue tea!
Teehee, but blue's not the only color it can be! Watch carefully... Toodily-toodie-loo!
Ta-da! See, the tea's turning purple now!
Hehe, it's my very special magic... Or that's what I'd like to say, but it's really the power of lemon juice.
The sour component of the lemon juice reacts with the pigment of the herbal tea, making it change color.
Did I manage to surprise you? Guess my trick worked! Now then, enjoy your tea!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes

1

What a splendid holiday! Did Santa bring you anything nice?
Oh? You say you're not a kid anymore?
Well, allow me to give you a more suitable present then. How 'bout a smooch? Mwuah!

2

When I think about Santa Claus, I realize just how lacking my own love is...
On a cold winter's night, Santa brings warmth to all the good boys and girls in the skydom...
But what can I do? Nothing big or grand. There are so many I can't reach out to.
Oh dear, how could I even think about giving up now? That wouldn't be love!
It might not be glamorous, and I still have a lot to learn, but at least I have someone close by to practice on... right? Hehe!

3

Happy holidays, (Captain)! What are you doing in the galley?
You came to help out, you say? Why, thank you! We're really strapped for helpers right now.
We need more and more food to feed an ever growing crew.
Yes, the eaters are many, but the chefs really get to shine and showcase their home cooking.
I know eating is such a delight, but try to hold on just a bit longer.
Sorry, but could I have you saute this without letting it burn?
And don't you sneak in tastes either. That'll only spoil the fun!

4

How about a gingerbread cookie, (Captain)? Fresh out of the oven!
Where I'm from during the holidays, er, end of the year, we always ate gingerbread men.
It was tradition to make the cookies to contain and protect from bad omens during the holiday festivities.
It might seem a bit barbaric, but it feels so good to just crunch into their little heads.
We all made cookies back at the orphanage... I'm sure they're making them again this year as well.
Perhaps I'll make an appearance at the orphanage once the holidays have settled down a little bit—with plenty of belated presents for everyone!

5

La-la-la... Why, if it isn't the captain! Have you finished with your holiday shopping?
Yep, I've finished with mine as well. Now I'm writing my greeting cards!
I just have so much I want to tell everyone at the orphanage and the Jewel Resort... I might not be able to squeeze it all in!
But expressing your love in words is a very precious thing. Just like how it's important to tell someone you love them.
It might be hard to remember exactly what someone said to you before, but if it's written down, then you can read it over and over again.
Even if I can't be with the people I love when they're feeling down... maybe this card can cheer them up in those times!
Hm? You want a card from me too, (Captain)?
I'm so glad to hear that! I'm going to send you the most beautiful card and fill it with love! Teehee, look forward to it!

The Shape of Love

While preparing food with Lyria, Phoebe, and Morphe at Raduga, Ladiva sees the girls contemplating over the ideal Valentine's gift and invites them to go shopping in town. Meanwhile, (Captain) and company are also wondering how to finally repay Ladiva for her yearly Valentine's Day gifts.



Ladiva (SSR) not in crew

Ladiva, a woman with a heart of gold, quits her job as star duelist of the Jewel Resort Casino Liner in order to avoid further friction with the Erste Empire.
While traveling with the crew of young (Captain), she realizes she wishes to travel with them for the long term.
Ladiva: (Captain) and the others are such amazing kids. They toppled an empire and revived the kingdom.
Ladiva: But as impressive as they are, they're still children: soft, pure, and sensitive.
Ladiva: If they try to reach the end of the sky, they're in for more trouble and pain than ever.
Ladiva: I'm not sure how much help I'll be.
Ladiva: But at the very least, I can show them they have a friend.
By the good graces of a dear friend, she ends up being inducted into the casino liner's Hall of Fame.
During a heartful farewell to her fans and friends there, she promises to return one day after helping (Captain) reach the end of the skies.
Noticing how incredibly considerate and attentive Ladiva can be, (Captain) entrusts her with the Grandcypher's subgalley.
It specializes in late-night snacks and serves as another place for the crew to take a load off and relax.
Ladiva: Hum-de-doo...
Before opening up for the night, Ladiva—with the help of a few crew members—is already hard at work with food prep.
Phoebe: Ladiva? If you boil the ale, doesn't the foam go to waste?
Ladiva: You're pretty sharp, Phoebe! I'll be using that foam to soften the meat actually!
Ladiva: And ale's particular brand of bitterness is great for adding depth to food when combined with spices.
Phoebe: Wow, I didn't know that!
Ladiva: The alcohol content will be all but gone once it's done boiling, so I hope you, Lyria, and Morphe won't mind taste-testing for me!
Morphe: I'm looking forward to it!
Lyria: From ale to wine to sake... There's so many ways to use alcohol in cooking.
Ladiva: Mm-hm. And that's in addition to being a great drink for grown-ups!
Ladiva eyes a row of bottled beverages on the shelf.
Ladiva: ...
Lyria: Ladiva, I'm done peeling the vegetables!
Ladiva: Thank you so much, dear! Can you chop them up in rectangles next?
Lyria: Sure thing!
Ladiva: I couldn't be more grateful for all your help.
Lyria: And I'm happy for the chance to practice my cooking!
Lyria: Even just using a kitchen knife well takes lots of practice.
Phoebe: I think practice has improved my sewing a bit too...
Phoebe: When people look at my embroidery work, they're more likely to know what it is... Or at least I hope so.
Any version of Eustace is a crew member

Phoebe: One crew member recognized my wolf embroidery as a dog...
Ladiva: Muscle memory often plays a big role... And getting that down pat is a big part of the challenge.
Ladiva: There are times when you start doubting yourself, wondering if there's any point to keeping up with the activity.
Ladiva: That's why it's such a beautiful thing to persevere and see the fruits of your labor.
Lyria: Ehehe...
Lyria: I want to become capable of making delicious food all by myself, food that would put a smile on (Captain)'s face.
Lyria: But...
Morphe: Is something on your mind?
Lyria: Um... You know how it's almost Valentine's?
Phoebe: Mm-hm. Have you been getting ready for it?
Lyria: That's exactly what's been troubling me!
Lyria: I thought I'd make some handmade chocolates since I've been getting better at it...
Lyria: But the ones they sell at the store are so pretty and delicious too!
Morphe: They put professional artisans to work on that stuff to make sure it looks fantastic!
Lyria: Exactly! It can be a bit pricey, but I can't help but think that'd be the best choice for a gift...
Phoebe: I was thinking the same thing actually. I might mess up if I make chocolate myself, but store-bought ones are guaranteed to be good...
Phoebe: There's also the cost of ingredients to consider.
Morphe: Not to mention the supply problem. It'll be that much harder to get your hands on a box the closer we get to Valentine's.
Phoebe: Yeah, we have to make up our minds before they sell out... I'm definitely giving some to (Captain).
Phoebe: Jamil's been good to me, so he's on my list too. And this'll be the perfect chance for me to tell Seox to stop coming back injured all the time...
Phoebe: Also...
Morphe: Huh? Is there something on my face, Sister?
Phoebe: Oh, it's nothing!
Lyria: Hrm, it's not an easy decision... Supposing we do go with handmade chocolates, what recipe should we use?
Ladiva: ...
Commiserating with their quandary, Ladiva offers a suggestion.
Ladiva: Lyria, Phoebe, how about we go shopping together at the next island we stop at?
Phoebe: But I still haven't made up my mind...
Ladiva: Not a problem—just consider it a stroll around town. But if you happen to spot something that'd make the perfect gift, then that's great too.
Ladiva: If not the chocolate itself, then maybe you'll at least find nice wrapping paper for handmade chocolate.
Ladiva: I figure just going out there to take a look would help you make up your mind.
Lyria: Good point! Just pouting about it isn't getting us anywhere anyway...
Phoebe: Okay then... As long as you don't mind us coming along, Ladiva.
Ladiva: Of course not—I'm the one who invited you after all! It's going to be so much fun!
Ladiva: Well then, we should let the captain know that we'll be heading out together when the ship lands—
Morphe: Sorry! I've been asked to help with something, so I'll have to sit this one out.
Phoebe: Oh yeah?
Morphe: Uh-huh. Really wish I could've come along...
Phoebe: All right then...
Phoebe: (If Morphe's not coming, then I'd best use this opportunity to get something for him at least!)
Ladiva: No worries—there's always next time.
Morphe: Yeah, I'll be happy to join you next opportunity I get.
They continue chatting about the things they'll do on their outing while resuming with food prep.
Morphe's Voice: (Captain), it's me! Morphe!
Vyrn: We were wondering when you'd show up. Come on in!
(Captain) and Vyrn welcome Morphe into the room.
Vyrn: So about that thing... How'd it go?
Morphe: Sorry... I've got nothing.
(Captain)'s shoulders slump at those words.
Morphe: It's not easy figuring out what Ladiva would want.
(Captain) has been receiving gifts from Ladiva yearly on both Valentine's and White Day...
And (Captain) always wanted to give something back, but wasn't quite sure what she might want.
Morphe: I noticed that when Ladiva speaks highly of something, it doesn't necessarily mean she wants it.
Morphe: Although she does mention wanting to replace some of the older cooking tools, that has more to do with her work at Raduga...
(Captain) and Morphe rack their brains over the matter.
Morphe: Hrm...
Seeing how flummoxed the two are, Vyrn speaks up.
Vyrn: Say, (Captain). Whaddya think of just going ahead and makin' some sweets first?
Vyrn: There's not much time until Valentine's. You wanna at least have the ingredients on hand before it's all sold out.
Vyrn: I mean, there's always the chance you'll spot the perfect gift for Ladiva in the next few days...
Vyrn: But if that happens, you can just give it to her along with the sweets! All I'm sayin' is you wanna be prepared!
Morphe: You're right!
Morphe: I think Vyrn has a point, (Captain).
Relieved at the advice, the captain considers the type of sweets to make.
Vyrn: What sorta sweets would make for a nice present...
Morphe: I'm pretty sure there was a sweets recipe book in the lounge... I'll go grab it!
(Captain) stops him so that they can head to the lounge together.
With the recipe book in hand, the three put their heads together to figure out what they're capable of making.

Chock-Full of Love

During their outing in town, Ladiva spots special cocoa wine that'd be perfect for Raduga's special Valentine's menu, while Lyria and Phoebe gain inspiration on the sort of sweets to make from the various chocolates and ribbons on display.



Though Valentine's Day is fast approaching, Lyria and Phoebe are still undecided about their choice of gifts.
Ladiva has come with the two to town, hoping they will find some inspiration.
Lyria: Wow, this is amazing! So many shops are dealing in Valentine's merchandise!
Ladiva: This island's rich in trade. We're fortunate the crew happened to have a job to do here.
Lyria: With so much to see, I don't even know where to start!
Ladiva: Haha, we can start by window-shopping.
Phoebe: Are you looking for anything yourself, Ladiva?
Ladiva: I was thinking of offering something special on Raduga's menu for Valentine's Day.
Ladiva: Candy did cross my mind, but we only open up the subgalley late at night.
Ladiva: And some might not be too keen on the idea of eating sweets before going to bed.
Phoebe: That's right... The crew members who stop by seem to prefer savory foods anyway.
Lyria: Also, I get the impression that alcohol isn't really something that goes well with sweets.
Ladiva: Then again, there are some who like their whiskey with chocolate, so it really depends.
Ladiva: Love chatting with you two, but it's time we started walking! There's so much to see.
Phoebe: Well then... Let's—
Lyria: Go!
They begin touring the marketplace, keeping an eye out for anything that may be of interest.
Phoebe: Aw, this place's chocolate is so adorable... It's like flower petals are scattered all over... I wonder how they make it.
Ladiva: I'm guessing it's dried fruit crushed and mixed together. Sure looks fancy!
Phoebe: Ah...
Oh, look. This chocolate contains a bit of alcohol.
Phoebe: But neither Morphe, Seox, or Jamil drink alcohol. I should probably look for something else.
Lyria: True! It's best to go with something they'd like!
Lyria: Ah!
Lyria: This ribbon is (Captain)'s favorite color!
Ladiva: How lovely! I must say I'm impressed, Lyria! You really know the captain's tastes inside out, huh?
Lyria: Ehehe...
Phoebe: If you're going to pick that, Lyria, I recommend this box to go with it. They make a perfect match.
Lyria: Oh, you're right! Its laid-back color makes the ribbon stand out that much more!
Phoebe: Though I also wonder if a brighter color might be better... What do you think, Ladiva?
Ladiva: If I had to pick...
Ladiva: Hm?
Ladiva stops before a liquor store offering free promotional samples in cup-form.
Ladiva: I thought I smelled chocolate. And here we have wine made with cocoa beans.
Phoebe: Is it sweet? I know I can't drink it, but I'm curious...
Noticing their interest, the clerk hands Ladiva a cup.
Lyria: Ooh, I can smell the chocolate too!
Ladiva: I guess I'll have just a sip then...
Ladiva: Oh my, there's not a hint of sweetness to it. A strange sensation, to be sure.
Phoebe: Well, the cocoa that's used to make chocolate isn't sweet either. It's usually the sugar that makes chocolate so sweet.
Lyria: That explains why it might be a bit bitter even if does smell like chocolate.
Ladiva: You know, this could work. Even those not fond of sweets might like it.
Taking a break at a cafe, the three reflect on the sights of the day.
Ladiva: I might just go with that cocoa wine. Especially since they also accept bulk orders.
Phoebe: Ah, that's right. It'd be unfortunate if we didn't have enough for everyone who wants to try some.
Ladiva: Mm-hm. Valentine's only comes once a year, so I want everyone to take in all the love and drink they want for the occasion!
Lyria: As for me... I really want to show (Captain) that ribbon.
Lyria: So I just might make the chocolate by hand.
Phoebe: Me too. Lots of the fancier shops here put a bit of alcohol in their chocolate...
Phoebe: Maybe we can try that too. I'd especially love to try and make some of that dry-fruit chocolate we saw earlier.
Ladiva: Great ideas, both of them!
Ladiva: It's settled then. Let's go back to that shop once we're done here.
Lyria: Sounds good to me!
Phoebe: Ladiva, Lyria. They have a Valentine's Special on the menu.
Lyria: Ooh! Let's go with that!
Lyria and Phoebe continue discussing how they'll go about making the chocolate, all while enjoying their meal with Ladiva.

Chock-Full of Love: Scene 2

The girls make a stop at the galley to borrow some kitchen implements, where they spot (Captain) and company getting ready to leave. Lyria and Phoebe go on to complete their confections, after which Ladiva gets to work on her own preparations.



Having returned from their little excursion, Ladiva, Lyria, and Morphe step into the galley to borrow some utensils for making confections.
Lyria: We're coming in!
Morphe: Ah...
(Captain), Morphe, and Vyrn stare wide-eyed at the other trio.
Ladiva: Oh! Surprised to see you here too, Captain.
Phoebe: Um... Is it okay if we look for a few kitchen utensils? If we'd be a bother, we can always come back later...
Vyrn: Nah, it's all good! We're just about done here anyway! Right, (Captain)?
Ladiva looks puzzledly at the captain's restless demeanor.
Ladiva: (Is it just me, or is (Captain) acting a bit nervous?)
Ladiva: (Surely it's not concern about whether Lyria will have a Valentine's Day present ready in a few days...)
On the way out with Vyrn and Morphe, (Captain) avoids eye contact with Ladiva.
Ladiva: We have plenty of kitchen implements at Raduga, so let's just borrow what we need.
Phoebe: Uh-huh! For one thing, we'll definitely need a whisk.
They make their way to the subgalley and get to work.
Ladiva: All right, let's start by making sure we have all the ingredients in order! Great cooking is all about love and proper measurement.
Lyria: Okay! We have chocolate, sugar, crushed almonds, and...
Phoebe: Dried fruit, marshmallows, cornflakes, and...
Ladiva watches as the two go about their confection-making.
Phoebe: Wow, you're really going the extra mile with the brownies, Lyria, making chocolate and caramel ones!
Lyria: Ehehe, I'm giving it my best! I just hope they turn out okay in the oven...
Ladiva: If you want to check on the batter to make sure it's being properly baked, it's okay to open up the oven door every now and then.
Phoebe: Given how big the two trays are, it should be fine if the edges get burnt a bit. Will be you cutting the brownies?
Lyria: Mm-hm. After divvying up each batch into smaller pieces, I'll be cutting out a heart shape from the middle of each piece.
Lyria: The chocolate hearts will go into the caramel brownies, while the caramel hearts will go into the chocolate brownies. I think it'll be really cute.
Phoebe: Ooh! I can't wait to see what that looks like!
Ladiva: Brilliant idea, Lyria! I'm sure the colors will really pop.
Ladiva: Ah! Phoebe, I think the chocolate's spent enough time on the double boiler.
Phoebe: Right! Now to pour it over the hardened mix, and then...
Lyria: So you're coating the marshmallows and cornflakes with chocolate, and then adding dried fruit on top of that, I see!
Ladiva: I love the idea that it tastes different depending on where you bite in from. Also, extra points for adding a skewer to make it easier to eat!
Phoebe: It's bigger than I imagined it to be... Better than being too small, I guess.
Ladiva: That's for sure! The point is that it's packed full of your love, Phoebe.
Upon completion, they proceed to gift wrap their confections.
Lyria: It's done!
Phoebe: We did it...
Ladiva: Fantastic work on your Valentine's presents, you two!
Lyria: Ehehe... I hope (Captain) likes it...
Ladiva: I think you have nothing to worry about. One look at your gift shows how much love you put into it.
Ladiva: (Now it's my turn to keep up!)
Ladiva sees off Lyria and Phoebe after cleanup, then begins on her own holiday concoction.
Ladiva: Something that goes well with cocoa wine and is just a bit sweet... Hehe, I've got just the thing!

Ladiva: Haha, it feels like I've gotten an early Valentine's present.

Vyrn: Gwuh, what'd you poke me for, (Captain)? Not like this is anything to be embarrassed about!
Ladiva: Captain...
Ladiva: I suppose... I do have one request.
Ladiva's expression curls into a grin as (Captain) leans in.
Ladiva: Once you've come of age, I want Raduga to be the first place you enjoy your alcohol... That's it.
Ladiva: There's going to be countless people who want to drink with you, so just bring them here. Consider this a reservation on my part.
Ladiva: How does that sound?
With a playful wink, Ladiva holds out a pinky. (Captain) returns the gesture.
Ladiva: Wonderful! Just wonderful! I can't wait to see the adult you hanging out at Raduga!
Ladiva: Oh, before I forget, let me get you some refreshments... Anything in particular you two would like?
Vyrn: I'll have apple juice! As for (Captain)...

Ladiva: A tea party with you sweethearts is the most wonderful Valentine's Day present in all the skies!
Ladiva: I almost feel sorry to take up your time for such a delightful surprise...

Ladiva: To make this fair...
Ladiva: I'm going to share something that I absolutely love!

Morphe: I'll fetch us the tea!
