[ Like she said, she's not here to punch him or anything. Archer can do that. ]
Was it really bad? I mean, the torture thing.
[ It's an odd question, but she's wondering because Athena seems strangely carefree about it... ]

They restrained us and forced us to experience endless images of our own worst nightmares. Given all the data CERES has on us, I suppose they can afford to be creative with their methods of psychological torture.
[He shrugs, and goes on.]
Woefully for them, I've something of a resistance to such methods. I spent seven years in my own personal hell -- what more can they make me endure that I already have not?
But I am concerned for Athena. She still has some deep-seated trauma, and I'm concerned that CERES' meddling has damaged her even further. Hence the bizarre behaviour of cheerful denial she has displayed ever since...

[ Seven years of hell sounds rough... She's also partially aware of what happened with Athena's mother, so she can guess what she had to experience. ]
So ya noticed it, too? Damn them...
Then what're we supposed to do?! I mean, is it okay to just... I mean, will she be okay like this?
[ She's no psychologist, she doesn't know the protocol here. ]

I've studied the principles of analytical psychology, but I am no therapist. All we can do is observe her for any changes, and offer what support we can.
[It's not a satisfactory answer to him, but what else can they do? The damage has already been done.]

I guess you're right. I just hate not being able to do anything...
[ She shifts a little uncomfortably, finding it awkward to say what's on her mind. ]
Uh. Can I ask ya one more thing?

Frustrating as it is, some things can only be resolved with patience. [He crosses his arms.]
Go on, then.
Go on, then.
... I...
Would it be alright if we stay over just for the night... or two?

Hmph... I suppose I can tolerate the pair of you.
[Said as if he doesn't tolerate Athena visiting or staying over pretty much every day anyway??]
Stay as long as you require.

Really?! I mean... t-thanks!
[ She looks surprised at how easily this went. He's not even asking why... that's good! No need to know about the wall in their apartment, la la la. ]
I won't stay long, sir! I was plannin' on movin' out anyway, but I feel like Athena needs me more than my family right now...

Some guy on the network says a quill is easier to use than the CereVice.
SIMON THAT'S SO UNFAIR
You get to make bad jokes and I can't???

Taka finds my jokes quite amusing. Yours, on the other hand...
I'll have you know that Widget finds me to be humourous!

Simon-san, are you available this afternoon? I have some friends that I believe you and Taka might like to meet.
I'M IN TROUBLE

[He's not even going to wait for an answer. DROPPING EVERYTHING AND RUSHING OFF TO THE GAME CENTRE!!
Also she's going to get like fifty missed calls on the way unless she picks up.]

Taka as well? I suppose you've piqued my curiosity.
Where shall I meet you and these friends of yours?

Of course, Taka as well.
Shall we say the park where we first met? Perhaps around five?
