Scenario:My First Valentine - With All My Heart

My First Valentine - With All My Heart

---

The crew split and begin their search for chocolate ingredients.

Deep in the forest, Lyria and Katalina count their findings.

Katalina: Phew... We've collected a fair amount, but it's still not enough to make chocolate for the entire crew.

Lyria: Katalina... Are you doing all this for everyone?

Katalina: Of course. This is the perfect opportunity to let all of our members know how much I appreciate them.

Lyria: ...

Katalina: Hehe... My end goal is to give thanks to all. But that doesn't mean you need to share that desire.

Katalina: If you only want to give chocolate to that special someone, that's perfectly acceptable.

Lyria: Okay. Thank you...

Katalina: May I ask... who that special someone is?

Katalina: I noticed you perked up when they mentioned love magic...

Katalina: Oh, this is coming out all wrong. I don't mean to pry.

Katalina: It's just... I can't help but wonder...

Seeing how flustered Katalina's becoming, Lyria shyly gazes toward the ground.

Then she utters "(Captain)" softly to Katalina.

Katalina: I see...

Lyria: If you ever find that special someone, let me know who it is, okay?

Katalina: L-Lyria...

Lyria: Hehe...

Katalina: Haha...

Katalina: Well, then! Let's get back to finding those ingredients.

In another corner of the forest, Rosetta and Io continue the hunt for chocolate sprites.

Rosetta: Hehe. Isn't this a lovely change of pace?

Io: You seem to be having a really good time. Who do you want to give chocolate to?

Rosetta: Hm? So you do want to know?

Rosetta: First... Tell me who you're working so hard for.

Io: Huh? Why!

Rosetta: You can't ask me to share my secrets if you won't share yours.

Rosetta: Don't worry. I'll take what you tell me to my grave.

Io: Um... But...

Rosetta: Hmm... Maybe I already know...

Io: Huh?

Io: I-I just want to give chocolate to my master!

Rosetta: Really now? I was thinking of someone who's normally a bit closer to you.

Io: N-no way...

Io: Okay! Now you go.

Rosetta: I'm making chocolate for everyone.

Io: Uhh...

Rosetta: Hehe. I think wanting to give to a special someone is wonderful in its own way.

Rosetta: You could even say such feelings exemplify the true essence of beauty.

Rosetta: It's a pivotal point in your life when you transition from child to adult.

Io: R-really?

Chocolate Sprite: ...

Rosetta: Fantastic timing...

With Valentine's Day on the horizon, nearly everyone is rushing to find chocolate sprites.

In direct contrast to the rowdy crowds, Vyrn and (Captain) reach their limits.

Girl 1: Look! There's another one over there!

Girl 2: Wait! Gimme that chocolate!

Vyrn: Where are they getting all that energy from?

Girl 1: There's one over there!

Girl 2: I'm not letting it get away!

Vyrn: Agh!

Vyrn: Ow...

Vyrn: They didn't even notice me...

Vyrn: This is like a battlefield to them.

1. We should keep going too!

Choose: We should keep going too!

Vyrn: Haha. Yeah. Everyone else is trying just as hard.

Vyrn: What kind of skyfarers would we be if we gave up here?

Vyrn: Let's show 'em what we're really made of, (Captain)!

My First Valentine - With All My Heart: Scene 2

---

The crew's hard work results in a large pool of ingredients.

With that, Lyria attempts to make chocolate for the very first time.

Rosetta: There's nothing wrong with the steps you've taken, but the flavor and consistency are still a bit lackluster...

Lyria: I guess because it's my first time, I must be missing some of the finer points.

Rosetta: I don't think that's the case. These ingredients in particular just require a special touch.

Katalina: In that case... What if we made some alterations?

Io: B-but we went through so much trouble to get all this.

Vyrn: Y-yeah!

Vyrn: Since Lyria's still new to this...

Vyrn: I don't think we should try anything too fancy.

Katalina: Hm... You make a good point.

Vyrn: Phew...

Lyria: ...

Rosetta: Lyria, don't lose heart. Let's just change the amount we use for now, okay?

Rosetta: We'll keep at this until you've made a delicious treat.

Katalina: Agreed. The effort you put into your chocolate will be reflected in the taste.

Io: She's right! Let's keep at it, okay, Lyria?

Lyria: Okay! I'll do this as many times as I need to. I'll pour my heart into my chocolate for...

Lyria gets ahead of herself and utters "(Captain)" before quickly closing her mouth.

Lyria pretends nothing has happened and begins humming a tune.

Vyrn: Hm? Did you say something about (Captain)?

Lyria: W-what are you talking about?

Katalina: Vyrn, (Captain), leave this to us. Why don't you go rest in another room.

Vyrn: Hey! You weren't the only ones who gathered this stuff, you know!

Io: Vyrn, go lie down!

Io: We don't need you breathing down our necks! We can make chocolate without you just fine!

Rosetta: Hehe. (Captain), remember you're on the receiving end this time, okay?

Vyrn: Fine. If that's how it is, then we're outta here. Come on, (Captain).

Once (Captain) and Vyrn leave the room, Lyria lets out a sigh of relief.

Lyria: Phew...

Io: So you want to make chocolate to give to (Captain)?

Lyria: Huh? I...

Io: I'll have to get it together for my master too!

Io: Rosetta, why are you laughing?

Rosetta: Hehe. No special reason.

Katalina: About the chocolate... This doesn't look good for us...

???: Worry nevermore! For I have arrived.

Lyria and the others turn to see a woman with a soft smile standing near the entrance of the kitchen.

Katalina: Who are you?

Lyria: Sniff, sniff...

Lyria: You wouldn't be the island's choco... chocolatier, would you?

Chocolatier: The one and only.

Io: Lyria, how did you know that?

Lyria: Hehe. She just smelled so sweet and tasty!

Chocolatier: I've seen your hearts—I've seen the volume of ingredients you've collected.

Chocolatier: And now would you allow me to share my knowledge of the chocolate arts with you?

Lyria: Yes, please!

Lyria: Could you... Could you tell me if there really is love magic...

Lyria: In these ingredients?

Chocolatier: Let me be frank. The answer is no.

Rosetta: Well, I never...

Lyria: Really?

Chocolatier: I'm not finished!

Chocolatier: What will reside in the chocolate you prepare today are your feelings.

Chocolatier: That is what I believe.

Lyria: I want to believe it too!

Chocolatier: Hehe... You with the blue hair... You truly care for the one whom you're preparing chocolate for.

Chocolatier: I can see the love in your eyes.

Lyria: What! How?

Chocolatier: Very well. You will begin preparing the chocolate under my instruction.

Lyria: Yes, ma'am!

So begins the crash course in chocolate creation.

Lyria and friends prepare for Valentine's Day while picturing the faces of the people they intend to deliver their chocolate to.

Valentine's Day arrives.

The faces on the ship's deck appear joyous.

Rosetta: It looks like everyone's Valentine's Day went just as planned.

Lyria: It did! I'm so happy I was able to give away my chocolate.

Io: Me too.
Just look at everyone. Their smiles make me even happier!

Katalina: (I still can't believe I was forced to do that...)

Io: (It was kinda embarrassing, but I got to show how much I care.)

Rosetta: (Hehe. (Captain) was just so cute. Getting all shy around me...)

Lyria: Let's do this again next year!

And so Valentine's Day ends with happy memories for all.

(Captain) looks upon all the smiling faces and is consumed by the warmth.

Just then, (Captain)'s eyes meet Lyria's.

Lyria: Hehe...

Lyria's countenance reveals it all: a shy smile, red cheeks, and lovestruck eyes.
