Doll Instinct 1 人形本能1

CommanderIt's finally done.总算完成了。

(I switch off the terminal and give my back a good stretch; the joints crack audibly a few times.)（我关掉终端电源，伸了个懒腰，关节咔哒咔哒响了几下。）

Commander...Whew, I've been sitting so long my whole body's stiff... Hmm, maybe I should take a break.……坐着太久了，身体都僵了……嗯，久违地去活动一下好了。

(...)（……）

(Gunshots in the distance reach my ears long before I arrive at my destination. I'm greeted by Andoris' focused silhouette as I approach, but her shot grouping is...)（离目的地还有一段距离，远远地就听到了几声枪响。走近之后，我看到了安朵丝专注的背影，不过她的射击数据……）

CommanderIt's a bit hard to look at, wouldn't you say?有点惨不忍睹啊。

AndorisAh, Commander.啊，指挥官。

(Andoris notices my presence after completing her round and exiting Level II. She puts down her rifle and runs up to me.)（完成了一轮射击训练，切出二级平层的安朵丝发现了我的存在，放下枪小跑到我面前。）

AndorisIt's quite late already. Shouldn't you be resting, Commander?这么晚了，还没休息呀，指挥官？

CommanderJust wrapped up my work, thought I'd exercise a little...刚忙完，过来活动一下……

CommanderWhat about you, still training at this hour? Didn't you just return from a mission an hour ago? You should take some rest first.倒是你，这么晚了还在训练？我记得一个小时之前你才刚结束一个任务吧，不先好好放松一下吗？

AndorisHehe, indeed I did. However, the mission revealed some of my shortcomings: I'm still too prone to crashing during emergencies.呵呵，是的，不过任务中暴露了一些缺点，在紧急情况下还是太容易宕机了……

AndorisAnd... as you can see, Commander.嗯……如指挥官所见。

(Following Andoris' gaze, I turn my attention to the screen again.)（顺着安朵丝的目光，我再次看向屏幕。）

(Andoris had the simulation set to breakthrough mode, meaning the virtual targets would constantly close in on her. This mode requires the test subject to quickly identify a breakthrough direction and prioritize certain targets.)（安朵丝调用的是突围模式，虚拟靶点会不断朝着安朵丝聚拢，受试者得在短时间内判断出突围方向和攻击的优先次序。）

AndorisI wanted to see if I could optimize my reflexes and decision-making speed through practice and data tuning.像是瞬时反应和决策速度之类的，我想看看能不能通过练习和数据调优优化一下。

AndorisAnd... while I was making good progress before, I struggled to keep up as the difficulty increased.唔……明明之前已经有所进步，不过随着任务难度的提升还是不太跟得上呢。

(Andoris looks at the virtual targets and strokes her cheek in frustration.)（安朵丝看着虚拟靶面，有些苦恼地轻抚脸颊。）

AndorisBut I guess Leader did say these things couldn't be rushed. I have to take it slowly.不过，队长说过，这种事急不得，只能慢慢来。

AndorisDo you think so too, Commander?你说对吗，指挥官？

CommanderShe's right.确实。

CommanderYou know, most of your issues stem from hardware limitations. While processing and model optimization can help, an enormous library of data is required to make a difference... As such, progress won't be particularly noticeable at first.其实你的问题大部分还是出在硬件上，不过数据和模型调优也能起到一些作用，只是需要大量的样本积累……一开始进步不会特别明显。

AndorisI'm fine with that. I'm happy to make a little progress each day and help you with missions or your routine, Commander.没关系的，只要每天能有一点点的进步，能在任务或者日常中多帮到指挥官一点，我就满足了。

(Andoris flashes an angelic smile.)（安朵丝露出了一个大天使般的微笑。）

CommanderFeels kind of... warm...感觉……暖暖的……

AndorisPardon? What exactly?嗯？什么暖暖的？

CommanderEr, I mean... seeing Andoris work so hard really warms my heart...不，我是说……安朵丝实在太努力了，我看着觉得心里暖暖的。

CommanderSay, if there's anything I can do to help, just let me know.这样，如果有什么需要我帮忙的，就尽管跟我说吧。

AndorisReally? Is that really alright?诶？真的可以吗？

CommanderOf course it is. Seeing how hard you're working to better yourself, I want to do something to help you.当然，看你努力的样子，很想为你做些什么。

AndorisHehe. I'm so happy to see you being this considerate, Commander.呵呵，指挥官有这份心意我好开心。

AndorisIn that case... if you have the time, would you mind playing some chess with me? I've read online that chess is good for developing reaction time and decision-making skills.那么……您如果有时间的话，能陪我一起下下棋吗？我看网络上说下棋也是培养决策力和反应力的好方法。

CommanderEven though chess is good for exercising the mind, I'm not sure if that applies to Dolls... but it can't hurt to try.虽然下棋能锻炼思维能力是不错，但不知道对人形是不是有效果……不过试试也无妨。

CommanderI'll check my schedule and see if I can set aside time for it.我回去看看日程表，尽量排出一天时间吧？

AndorisHehe, sorry to bother you like this, Commander.呵呵，那就麻烦指挥官了。

AndorisIn return, I'll have afternoon tea ready for you, Commander.作为回报，我会为指挥官准备下午茶的。

CommanderSounds great, I'm looking forward to it.好啊，我很期待。

Doll Instinct 2 人形本能2

AndorisHmm... I think I'll make this move.嗯……那就下在这里吧。

(I glance at the situation on the chessboard.)（我望了一眼棋盘上的形势。）

CommanderPawn to e5.黑方小兵，e5。

(The chessboard generates a holographic projection of the piece at the designated square.)（棋盘在指定位置生成了虚拟棋子投影。）

AndorisUm...唔……

(Andoris' pupils contract as she slips into a trance, staring at the chessboard motionlessly.)（安朵丝的双瞳收缩了一下，接着呈现出了呆滞的状态，一动不动地盯着棋盘。）

Commander...Looks like it's just a bit of lag.……看情况应该只是临时卡顿。

CommanderIt seems the computational load required for a game of chess is still too heavy for Andoris.看来下棋的计算量对安朵丝来说还是有点大。

(I pick up the terminal next to me.)（我拿起一旁的终端。）

AndorisF-f-f-f4.白白白方，f4。

CommanderAre you sure?确定？

AndorisHehe. I've made my move.呵呵，落子无悔。

CommanderQueen to h4.黑方皇后，h4。

AndorisAh, that diagonal is exposed... Hmm...啊，这条斜线漏出来了……那……

(My gaze shifts back to my terminal, waiting for Andoris' latest lag to end.)（我的目光再次落回终端上，等待安朵丝新一轮的卡顿过去。）

(Another ten seconds goes by, and Andoris blinks.)（就这样又过了十几秒，安朵丝眨了眨眼睛。）

AndorisAh... Looks like I crashed again?啊……看来，我又卡住了吗？

CommanderNo, just lag I think, it didn't last long. I haven't even made it through a page yet.嗯，但时间不长，我一页书都没看完。

AndorisUmm, I'm feeling a little guilty.唔，感觉有点抱歉呢。

AndorisIt took us so long to make just these few moves. Am I wasting your time, Commander?过了这么久，也才下了这几步，是不是耽误指挥官时间了？

CommanderHuh? Not at all.啊？没有。

CommanderI marked today for R&R anyway, so spending some comfy time playing chess with you is honestly perfect. Besides...今天一天本来就是空出来休息，悠闲地下下棋挺好的，谈不上耽误，而且……

(I hold up the terminal in my hand.)（我扬了扬手中的终端。）

AndorisI was just wondering, are you reading an ebook, Commander?刚刚就有点好奇，指挥官是在看电子书吗？

CommanderYeah. I haven't had time to read in a while, since it's rare for me to take a break.是的，有段时间没看了，难得休息。

AndorisYou always seem to find these little pockets of calm, Commander, no matter the situation.无论什么状况，指挥官都能找到享受的方法呢。

CommanderGotta make the most of precious moments... It's not every day that I get to be this laid-back, and I'm really enjoying it.自得其乐嘛……这种慢节奏不常有，我确实很享受。

CommanderTake your time, Andoris. As long as you need.安朵丝可以慢慢想，想多久都可以。

AndorisHehe. Okay.呵呵，好的。

AndorisLet's see... Hmm...我看看……嗯……

AndorisOh, wait. I think it's time for the a-afternoon t-t-t-tea-a-a-a-a-a-a—唔，话说、是不是到了下午茶、茶的时间间间间间间间间——

CommanderAndoris?安朵丝？

(Andoris does not respond but stands up abruptly.)（安朵丝没有回应我，而是猛地站了起来。）

AndorisA-afternoon t-tea, c-c-chess...下、午茶，下……下棋……

(Andoris picks up the teapot and walks to the door. I get up and follow behind her, worried she might bump into something.)（安朵丝端起了桌子上的茶壶，走到了门口，我也站了起来跟在她的身后，怕她撞到什么。）

AndorisN-no... c-chess, continue...不对……棋局、继续……

(Andoris returns to the table and stares blankly at the chessboard.)（安朵丝又调头回到了桌边，呆滞地盯向棋盘。）

AndorisQ-queen... butter cookie... to e3—王、王后……黄油曲奇……退至e3——

(Andoris suddenly falls silent. Then, her body collapses backward, and the teapot slips from her hand.)（安朵丝突然噤了声，往后倒的同时，茶壶也从她手中滑落。）

Commander!!！！

(I quickly reach out and catch her with both hands, but the teapot can't be saved and falls to the floor, shattering into pieces.)（我赶忙伸出手接住了安朵丝。但没法救到的茶壶，就这么摔在了地上，裂成碎片。）

CommanderAndoris?安朵丝？

(I try to wake her up, but a red light flashing in her pupils attracts my attention—a telltale sign of a system crash.)（我试着呼唤她，但看到她瞳孔闪烁着红光，这是宕机的迹象。）

(And so, I gently lay her down on the sofa.)（于是，我顺势把她安放在了沙发上。）

(...)（……）

(I look over at Andoris as I hear the rustle of fabric.)（身边传来衣物的摩挲声，我看向沙发上的安朵丝。）

CommanderYou're finally awake.醒了呀。

AndorisOh dear... I'm so sorry, Commander. I crashed again.啊呀……抱歉，指挥官，我又宕机了呢。

CommanderIt's fine, that was only the first one today. However, I have no idea what triggered your crash... Could it be the afternoon tea?今天才第一次，还好啦，不过不知道是什么触发了你的宕机……下午茶吗？

(Andoris sits up and slowly tidies her hair and skirt.)（安朵丝坐起身，不紧不慢地整理着头发和裙摆。）

AndorisWell... My speculation is that upon noticing that afternoon tea time was coming up, I loaded a bunch of recipes all at once...嗯……我推测是因为，那时候我意识到该给指挥官准备下午茶，一时间加载了大量的菜谱方案……

AndorisDoing so while trying to process the entire chess game was likely too much for me to handle at once, which resulted in the crash.但同时又在比照下棋规则处理棋局信息，一下子有点处理不过来，所以才宕机的吧？

(Just as I'm about to comfort her, Andoris tilts her head and looks at me.)（我刚想要安慰她两句，安朵丝却歪了歪脑袋看向我。）

AndorisAlthough everyone says I should take things slowly, I feel like that's not always practical.虽然说是要慢慢来，但还是感觉有些麻烦。

AndorisIt would be suboptimal if I got in the way of important matters, after all.如果耽误重要的事就不好了。

AndorisHehe. Looks like I have much more to optimize.呵呵，要尽量优化才行呢。

(Andoris' leisurely tone is like a soothing aroma, bringing an inexplicable sense of relief. I can't help but indulge in it and relax as well.)（安朵丝慢悠悠的话语仿佛舒缓香薰一般，释放着莫名的松弛感。我也不由放松下来。）

CommanderOptimization is one thing, but there's no need to be overly anxious about things that have yet to happen.优化是一方面，但不用过度担忧没发生的事。

CommanderEven if things do go south, it's more likely due to my own negligence and failure to plan properly as the Commander.如果真的耽误事了，那说明我这个做指挥官的也没有调度好。

AndorisPlan?调度？

CommanderYeah. Naturally, I would be inclined to assign you tasks you're more comfortable with.嗯，我肯定是倾向于让安朵丝去做自己擅长的任务的。

AndorisHmm... Tasks I'm comfortable with? That must mean data transmission.嗯……我擅长的任务吗？那一定是数据转移吧。

(Andoris happily taps where her core is located.)（安朵丝开心地拍了拍自己的核心位置。）

AndorisHehe, I've got a lot of space here, you know? Leader often says I'm a walking hard drive, so I'm quite flattered.呵呵，这里空间很大哦？队长经常夸我是大型移动存储硬盘呢。

(Andoris' delighted expression seems genuine. I can't help but admire Leva's ability to read people.)（安朵丝的开心不像假的，我不禁开始佩服起莱娅的选人能力。）

CommanderAhem... You have a great personality on top of an excellent memory, Andoris. Not everyone is this good at sensing others' emotions and offering support. Hmm... maybe you're better suited for communication-focused work.咳咳——安朵丝你除了记性不错，性格也很好，容易察觉到别人的情绪并且给予支持，嗯……也许会比较适合一些沟通向的任务或工作。

AndorisCommunication-focused, huh... But my experience from before says otherwise. I was a little tardy when working in the service field, to put it mildly. The complaints I received were so numerous that the letters could pile into a small mountain; it was quite the sight.沟通向吗……但以前我做得并不顺利呢，因为反应慢，所以在窗口行业接到的投诉信像下雪一样，非常壮观。

AndorisAnd as a result... I could no longer find employment.所以后来……工作也没有了。

(Recalling her past experiences, Andoris looks a little helpless, but she quickly regains her reassuring smile.)（想起过去的经历，安朵丝有点无奈，但很快又露出了安心下来的笑容。）

AndorisHehe... Fortunately, the problem was ultimately solved with the help of Miss Springfield and Miss Leva.呵呵……幸好有春田和莱娅小姐帮助，工作问题最后还是解决了。

AndorisThough, most of our current commissions are combat-focused and have little to do with communication.不过，就算是这样，现在的委托工作大多数是实战方面的，和沟通不太有关系呢。

CommanderThat's to be expected. You're in a T-Doll squad after all.这是自然，毕竟我们是战术人形小队。

CommanderBut that's not to say communication isn't crucial. The success of some commissions hinges entirely on building rapport with the client. One needs to fully understand their needs to negotiate a satisfactory deal for both parties.不过沟通向的任务也有，有些委托的前提，就是要好好与委托人沟通，充分了解对方的需求，才好协商出双方都满意的价格和方案。

CommanderThe problem is, the client may not want to disclose their true intentions for various reasons. Your attentiveness, friendliness, and empathy are nice to have in such a scenario. Just leave the decision-making and planning part to me.但有时候出于各种原因，真实的需求委托人并不会摆到明面上来谈，安朵丝的细腻、亲和力以及共情能力应该可以发挥作用，至于决策和方案提供可以交给我。

AndorisThat sounds like a pivotal role.听上去是非常重要的工作呢。

AndorisIf circumstances call for it, I wouldn't mind giving such tasks a try.如果有这类任务的话，我想试试看。

AndorisIs that okay, Commander?可以吗，指挥官？

CommanderOf course.当然可以。

CommanderActually, I believe there's one such appointment tomorrow. Let me check...我记得明天就有一个相关的预定，我看看啊……

(I open the terminal's mission interface and take a glance.)（我打开了终端的任务界面看了看。）

CommanderHere.有了。

CommanderCheck this out.你看这个。

AndorisOhh... It seems the client intends to introduce additional terms, and they're rather disadvantageous to us... Is that right?嗯……看起来，委托人是想要附加额外条款，但是对我们有些许不利……是吗？

CommanderCorrect. I've dealt with her before. She is rather cautious and distrustful.对，之前对接过这个委托人，生性比较警惕多疑。

CommanderBut you come across as much more approachable, so maybe you can make her drop her guard, if just a little.安朵丝你的亲和力比较高，说不定能稍微让她放下一点戒心。

AndorisIf you believe that could work, then by all means, let me give it a try.如果指挥官是这么觉得的话，请务必让我试试。

CommanderVery well. Let's go together tomorrow, Andoris.好，明天安朵丝就跟我一起去吧。

Doll Instinct 3 人形本能3

(The sliding door to the maintenance room opens. Mayling, already prepared for the repair upon receiving the message, quickly runs over.)（维修室的滑门打开了。收到消息早已做好维修准备的美玲快速跑了过来。）

MaylingCommander, are you—Ah! Andoris... How did she get so badly damaged?指挥官你们——啊！安朵丝……安朵丝怎么伤得这么严重！

(With the remaining half of Andoris' body in my arms, I carefully place her in the repair bay.)（我架着安朵丝几乎只剩一半的素体，小心翼翼地将她安置在了维修仓内。）

CommanderWe got ambushed by the client's rival while discussing business with her... Mayling, come over and assess the damage.我们在和委托人商谈的时候碰到了她的仇家偷袭……美玲，你来看看要怎么修。

MaylingAh... R-right away!啊……好的好的。

MaylingUwahh... This is hideous...唔哇，这也太过分了……

AndorisI'm fine, Mayling...美玲，我没事……

(Andoris strokes Mayling's head, then pats her still intact core.)（安朵丝摸了摸美玲的头，拍了拍自己尚且完好的核心。）

AndorisI-I just completed a self-diagnosis. My crucial storage capacity has not been impacted. Hehe-hehe-he-hehe.刚才我自、自检过，作为优势部分的本地存储空间容量，并并并没有受太大大影响呢，呵、呵呵呵、呵呵。

CommanderThis isn't the time for you to be comforting others.这种时候就别想着安慰别人了。

(Seeing Andoris smile apologetically, I let out a sigh.)（看着安朵丝露出了一个略带歉意的微笑，我叹了一口气。）

MaylingWhew... The neural core is fine... Thank goodness!嗯……心智模块确实没有大问题……太好了！

MaylingBut all the leg components need to be replaced... as well as the right arm... and the synthetic skin... It would be easier to just replace the entire frame!不过腿部部件需要全部更换……右手也是……仿生皮肤也需要……这种程度还是换个素体更直接！

MaylingI'll go make the preparations now, Commander. Can you upload Andoris' neural data?指挥官我去准备一下，你能先帮安朵丝上传一下心智吗？

CommanderNo problem. Be quick.没问题，快去快回。

(As Mayling trots away, the maintenance room suddenly falls silent. All that remains is the constant beeping of the sensor.)（随着美玲小跑离开，整备室一下子安静了下来，只能听见检测机器“滴滴滴”的运转声。）

AndorisYou're not hurt, are you, Commander?指挥官，你确实没有受伤吧？

Commander...Look at the state you're in. This isn't the time for you to be worrying about these things.……自己都伤成这样了，就先别想这些了。

(Andoris shakes her head.)（安朵丝摇了摇头。）

AndorisThe safety of my Commander is my utmost concern. I have to make sure of it.指挥官的安危对我来说才是头等大事，必须确认清楚。

AndorisA Doll's frame can be repaired and restored to its original state, but the same can't be said for people.人形的素体可以维修，可以变得完好如初，人类却不是这样的呢……

Commander(Sigh) ...I don't want you to hold on to that kind of thinking.唉……我不希望你们有这样的想法。

CommanderEven if a Doll's frame can be repaired, it still hurts when you get injured, right?就算人形的素体可以修复，但是受伤的时候依旧会疼的吧？

AndorisIt does hurt.的确会呢。

CommanderIt's okay to get hurt because I can be fixed. That's not the mindset I want you to have when making reckless decisions, Andoris.“因为可以修好，所以受伤了也无所谓”，我不希望安朵丝因为有这样的想法，就去做一些冒险的事。

AndorisReckless decisions?冒险的事？

CommanderYou know, I was prepared for whatever we might encounter during the outing, but I never got the chance to make use of my contingencies since you barged in first.这次出行，我也有所准备，可是还没来得及使用就被你撞开了。

CommanderThe forcefield would've been enough to protect us, and you wouldn't have suffered such severe damage.其实那时候用力场盾就可以处理，你也不用受损这么严重。

AndorisAre you saying I only acted recklessly because I disregarded my own safety, Commander?指挥官是觉得，那时候我是因为不顾自己的安危才做出这种冒险的举动吗？

CommanderNo... I know you're just trying to protect me... But I want you to take better care of yourself, too.不……我当然知道你也是为了保护我……我只是希望你能更加爱护自己一点。

CommanderSpeaking of which, your reaction speed back there wasn't as slow as usual.不过话说回来，那时候你的反应速度可不像平时那么慢啊。

AndorisDid I... react quickly?反应速度快……吗？

(Andoris slowly blinks.)（安朵丝慢慢地眨了眨眼。）

AndorisWell... I just checked my neural records from that time; the data processing log just prior to my action of protecting you reads... nothing. In other words, I didn't perform any kind of consequence analysis back then.嗯——我刚刚浏览了一下那个时间段的心智记录，保护指挥官的行为生成时所对应的演算过程是空白的……也就是说，我在当时并没有进行任何的行为推演。

AndorisThere was no "I'm just a Doll, it doesn't matter if I get hurt" or "my own safety isn't important"... None of that crossed my mind.无论是“人形受伤了也无所谓”还是“我自己的安危不太重要”这些……其实都没有。

CommanderHuh? Dolls usually process their actions first and then execute. Having your body jump straight into action like that is quite unusual...啊？人形一贯的运作方式都是先演算再执行，这样直接执行的现象挺少见的……

AndorisIndeed. Could it be a glitch in my neural cloud? If so, I'll have to bother Miss Mayling to take a closer look later.是呢，难道是心智出问题了吗？一会要拜托美玲小姐再仔细检查一下了。

(Lying in the repair bay with her mangled frame, Andoris once again shows a gentle, calming smile.)（素体残缺，躺在维修仓里的安朵丝，又浮现出了温柔又松弛的笑容。）

AndorisHmm... My body sprang into action without my conscious thought. This is indeed a first for me.唔……没有经过任何的演算，就做出了举动，这对于我来说也是第一次呢。

AndorisIs this what the books call the "instinct" of a living being? But I'm clearly a Doll...很像是书籍里提到的生物的“本能”？可我明明是人形……

AndorisDon't worry, Commander. Maybe the glitch will go away after I switch to a new frame.指挥官，您不要担心，也许换过素体后就好了呢。

CommanderI hope so...嗯……

(I gently caress Andoris' head, my feelings tinged with sorrow.)（我有些心疼地抚了抚安朵丝的头。）

(Andoris has always been gentle and attentive when caring for others, but when it comes to herself, she can be quite insensitive.)（对待他人时，安朵丝总是温柔又细腻，但到自己身上的时候，却变得非常钝感。）

(This might save her some hassle, but I find it hard to admit it's a good thing in the end.)（这样也许会少掉一些烦恼，可我很难承认它是好事。）

AndorisGood night, Commander.那么晚安了，指挥官。

(As the sensor beeps to signal that the neural upload is complete, Andoris also enters hibernation in the repair bay.)（监测机器传来心智上传完成的声音，维修仓里的安朵丝也进入了休眠状态。）

Doll Instinct 4 人形本能4

(It's already late evening by the time I've finished the day's work. I arrive at the dormitory and heat up a cup of milk to continue reading the book I started earlier.)（完成一天的工作，已是深夜，我来到休息室为自己热了一杯牛奶，继续看之前没看完的书。）

(Come to think of it... It's been a while since I last saw Andoris.)（话说……自从那天以来，已经很久没见到安朵丝了。）

(If I recall correctly, as soon as she got her new frame, she went on an emergency sortie with Klukai while I had my own matters to attend to. I wanted to take some time to visit her, but our schedules never lined up.)（好像一换完素体，她就跟着可露凯出紧急任务去了，我也有其他要事缠身，本想抽空去看看她，但时间总是碰不上。）

(Just as I'm thinking about whether she's gotten used to her new body or not, I hear the sound of the door sliding open.)（不知道她适应了新的素体没有。正想着，耳边传来了滑门声。）

CommanderHuh? Andoris? What a coincidence, I was just thinking about you.嗯？安朵丝？好巧，刚刚还在想着你呢。

CommanderHow is it? Does the new body—Oof!怎么样？新的素体感觉……唔！

(Before I can finish, I receive a brief but gentle hug.)（话还没有说完，我就收到了一个快速而轻柔的拥抱。）

CommanderAndoris?安朵丝？

(I softly pat Andoris on her back, but she does not respond; instead, she hugs me even tighter.)（我轻轻拍了拍安朵丝的后背，但安朵丝没有回话，只是将我抱得更紧了一些。）

(Her soft strands of hair move with her, lightly brushing against my face.)（她柔软的头发随着动作，也松松散散地垂贴在我的脸旁。）

CommanderWhat's the matter?怎么了？

Andoris...……

CommanderI can finally stop being worried after seeing you in such high spirits, Andoris.看到安朵丝这么有精神，我就不担心了。

AndorisWorried...?担心……？

CommanderYou were afraid I'd get worried, and this hug is to comfort me, right?安朵丝是因为怕我担心，才用拥抱来安慰我的吧？

AndorisHmm...?嗯……？

(A hint of confusion can be heard in Andoris' voice.)（安朵丝的声音里似乎有一丝困惑。）

CommanderOh... I guess I got it wrong then.啊……不是这么一回事吗？

AndorisUmm... No, Commander. Were you... worried about me just now?唔……不，指挥官刚才，是说在担心我吗？

CommanderI was. You just had your entire frame replaced, which would be equivalent to a major surgery for humans.嗯。毕竟你之前才换了素体，放在人类这里也算是个大手术了。

CommanderPlus, it takes a while to get used to a new body, even for a Doll.而且对人形来说，新素体也要一段时间的适应期嘛。

AndorisHehe. I see.呵呵，原来是这样。

AndorisAs you can see, I'm doing great. I can move around quite well.如你所见，我现在很好哦，行动还算自如。

(Andoris lets go of me and straightens up in front of me. She looks good as new with her neat dress and frame in perfect condition.)（安朵丝松开我，站定在我的面前。完好的素体，整洁的衣裙，她看上去崭新如初。）

AndorisEven Leader Klukai agrees that I'm ready to go racing against Thoads now.就连可露凯队长也说我现在可以去和锤岩蟾蜍赛跑了呢。

Commander...That's good to hear.……那就好。

CommanderOh, right. I just got a new portable charging station. I'll bring it over now. Think of it as a thank-you gift for saving me...哦对了，话说我之前新拿到了一个便携式充电桩，我去拿来给你吧，当作安朵丝这次救了我的谢礼……

(Just as I turn around and prepare to leave to fetch the charging station, a pair of arms suddenly wrap around my waist.)（我刚准备转身去拿充电桩，突然一双手环在了我的腰上。）

CommanderAndoris? Is something wrong?安朵丝？怎么了？

AndorisAhh... How strange, my body is moving on its own again...啊……好奇怪，身体又不自觉地动了起来……

CommanderAgain?又？

AndorisYeah. Just like earlier, as well as in the mission before, my body is moving on its own without my conscious control. It doesn't seem like a malfunction either...嗯，和刚刚一样，也和之前出任务的时候一样，明明没有做出任何判断，身体却突然自己行动了。可是，又并不像是故障……

CommanderThe neural cloud of a Doll is a mysterious black box. Sometimes, even Persica herself can't figure it out.人形的心智很奇妙的，或许有时候连帕斯卡本人都无法解释。

CommanderSo, no need to overthink it. Just do as you see fit.不用多想啦，做你想做的就行。

AndorisOh, alright then. Can I hold onto you like this a little longer, Commander?好的呢，那我可以再这样抱着指挥官一会儿吗？

CommanderBy all means.当然可以。

(Right as I say that, I feel the arms around my waist tighten a little more, then loosen slightly as if afraid of hurting me. Gurgle—my stomach growls at the worst possible moment, overcome by hunger.)（我感觉腰上的手臂又收紧了些，但又像怕勒到我似的放松了一点点。咕——我的肚子不合时宜地被饥饿感掌控。）

CommanderUhh...呃……

AndorisHave you not had dinner yet, Commander?指挥官没吃晚饭？

CommanderI forgot about it. Speaking of which, it really is a shame...忘记了，现在想想真可惜啊……

AndorisShame?可惜？

CommanderI'm talking about the dishes the client prepared when we met up.指的是和委托人会面时，对方准备的餐点啦。

CommanderA table full of delicious food, all wasted before we could even dig in because of the ambush...一大桌子好吃的，还没开动就被偷袭者掀桌了……

AndorisHehe. If you don't mind, I can make you something, Commander.呵呵，指挥官如果不嫌弃的话，我给你做点东西吃吧？

AndorisIt may not be as sophisticated as those delicacies, but you definitely won't leave hungry.虽然可能比不上那些精致菜肴，但是绝对可以填饱肚子。

CommanderSounds good.好啊。

(...)（……）

CommanderAlthough, is it really okay for you to cook? I remember Springfield mentioning that complicated dishes might cause you to crash or something...不过，你可以做饭吗？之前听春田说太复杂的菜肴会让你宕机什么的……

AndorisThat's right. That's why I deliberately studied dishes that aren't too complicated, thinking I could make them for you whenever you crave them, Commander.确实呢，所以我特意学了些制作起来不那么复杂的食物——就想着有一天如果指挥官需要的话，可以直接做给你吃。

(Andoris retrieves a bag from the cupboard as she speaks.)（安朵丝边说着，边从橱柜中拿出了一包东西。）

CommanderPancake mix?松饼粉？

AndorisYep, it's relatively easy to work with.对哦，制作工艺很简单的食物。

AndorisPlease don't be disappointed, Commander.指挥官可不要嫌弃啊。

CommanderHow could I? Compared to compressed biscuits, pancakes are a rare treat.怎么可能嫌弃，比起压缩饼干，松饼可是难得的美味。

(Andoris smiles and begins preparing the pancakes. Perhaps to avoid processing too much information at once, she moves at a rather leisurely pace.)（安朵丝笑了笑，开始制作松饼。也许是想要避免一下子处理太多制作信息，所以安朵丝的动作比较缓慢。）

CommanderThis feels... kind of embarrassing.总觉得……有些不好意思。

CommanderTo have you make food for me when you just came back from a mission.安朵丝也是刚出完任务吧，还要给我做吃的。

AndorisNo... I want to cook for you now, Commander. I don't want you to go hungry.不……这是我自己想给指挥官做的。我不想让指挥官饿着。

AndorisHmm~ Maybe that's why I subconsciously found myself wanting you to stay with me a little longer?嗯~说不定是因为这个，所以当时才下意识地想要留住指挥官吧？

CommanderWanting me to stay? You mean that hug was meant to keep me around?留住？你是说那个拥抱是用来留我的吗？

AndorisThat's my guess, since if I really wanted to, I could've simply said so.只是我的猜测，因为要留住指挥官的话，用语言表达出来就可以。

AndorisBut still, my body moved on its own... as if guided by that very "instinct" we talked about.但身体就是不自觉地动了起来……跟之前说到的“本能”有点像。

(Andoris pours the pancake batter into the hot frying pan and skillfully flips it.)（安朵丝将搅拌好的松饼浆倒入热好的平底锅中，娴熟地翻转着。）

AndorisMaybe it's because you're the most important person in my thoughts, or perhaps... I simply want to be with you, Commander.也可能是因为，指挥官在我的心智中就是高于一切的存在，又或许……我只是想这样和指挥官单独相处而已。

(The pancake takes shape and releases a rich aroma of creamy milk.)（凝固的松饼开始散发出浓郁的奶香味。）

AndorisAnd then, after realizing that you're the one at the center of all this, maybe letting this "instinct" guide my actions isn't such a bad thing.然后，我就想既然对象是指挥官，那就让所谓的“本能”来引导我的行为也好。

AndorisHehe. Having the Commander become my "instinct" sounds very sweet.呵呵，让指挥官成为我的“本能”，听起来还挺不错的。

(The fluffy pancakes are neatly served on a plate and topped with golden syrup. They all look very appetizing.)（胖乎乎的松饼被整齐地码在了盘子中，上面淋上了焦黄色的糖浆。看上去十分可口。）

AndorisGuten Appetit.请用。

CommanderWell, I'll dig in now.那我不客气了。

CommanderHmm... Delicious. And the tenderness is just right.唔……好吃，松软程度刚刚好。

AndorisWonderful, I'm glad to hear you like it, Commander.太好了呢，指挥官喜欢就好。

CommanderI like it a lot.非常喜欢。

AndorisHehe. In that case, may I request something from you, Commander?呵呵，那——我能和指挥官提一个要求吗？

CommanderThat's quite unlike you to ask for things so directly.好少见，安朵丝居然会主动提要求。

AndorisIt's an unreasonable request.是个过分的请求哦。

CommanderTell me about it.说来听听。

(Andoris flashes a somewhat sly smile, a rare sight coming from her.)（安朵丝露出了一个有些狡黠的笑容，这对她来说是个少见的表情。）

AndorisFinish the pancakes... then I'll tell you, Commander.等指挥官吃完……再告诉你吧。

Covenant 铭契

AndorisHm? Am I allowed to stay by your side like this, Commander? So you can keep guiding this "instinct" of mine...?诶？我能以这种身份留在指挥官身边吗？永远让指挥官指引我的“本能”……？

AndorisI'm elated... I'll strive to become the best version of myself, not just for my own sake, but also for you, Commander.好开心……我会努力变得更好，不仅是为了自己，也是为了指挥官。

AndorisIf just being here with you brings you even a moment's comfort and joy, then that would be everything to me.如果我的存在，能让指挥官感到舒心和幸福，对我来说就再好不过了。

Undecided Victory 胜局未卜

AndorisBishop to e5, blocking the check.白方，主教挡王，e5。

CommanderThen I'll have no choice but to capture your bishop.那我就不客气地把你的主教收掉了。

AndorisAh! Uhh... I still can't outwit you at this, Commander.啊！唉……果然还是下不过指挥官呢。

CommanderSo, all that enigmatic act was just to get me to play chess with you regularly?话说，你搞得那么神秘，原来是想让我定期跟你一起下棋呀。

CommanderIt isn't that outrageous of a request, is it?这也不算是什么过分的请求吧。

AndorisI think it is, since I'm monopolizing a lot of your time and energy, Commander.相当过分哦，因为要独占指挥官的时间还有精力嘛。

AndorisIt's not just me, you know? Everyone wants to spend time with you, Commander, so I feel a little guilty for making such a request...其实不只是我，大家都希望能和指挥官单独相处，这么想来提出这样的要求还让我有些愧疚呢……

AndorisHowever, it's not just about claiming you for myself; I also want to show you the fruits of my recent training, Commander.不过，我也不全是为了独占指挥官，也是想让指挥官看看我最近训练的成果。

(While I'm still processing her words, Andoris moves her piece to a tricky position.)（还未等我反应过来，安朵丝将棋子挪到了一个刁钻的位置。）

CommanderThis move...这一步……

CommanderHold on. Was it just me, or did your reaction speed get faster?等等，是我的错觉吗？你的反应好像变快了。

AndorisThe duration of my lag has also been reduced.卡顿的时间也减少了哦。

CommanderAnd you've started to employ more tactics too. Good job, Andoris.而且也开始使用一些技巧了，干得不错嘛安朵丝。

AndorisThank you for spending so much time with me, Commander.多亏了指挥官匀出这么多时间给我。

AndorisAlso, it's not just chess. I've noticed my reaction speed improving and crash frequency decreasing during missions lately.而且，不只是下棋，最近出任务的时候，也感觉自己的反应速度快了一些，宕机警报的频次也减少了。

CommanderI assume that phenomenon where your body moves on its own without processing is also much less frequent now, right?那估计，像之前那样没有推演直接执行的现象，也会减少很多吧？

AndorisI'm not sure about that.我不知道哦。

AndorisSince the phenomenon only seems to arise when I'm in your presence... I also don't want it to be gone.因为本来，这种现象基本上也只会出现在指挥官这里……但是，我也不希望它消失呢。

AndorisAfter all, letting you become my "instinct" feels like a special bond between the two of us, Commander, one that nothing can break. That thought alone fills me with so much happiness.毕竟让指挥官成为我的“本能”这种事，像是我们之间产生了某种特殊的链接，无论什么也无法阻断这种链接，这种感觉让我很幸福哦。

CommanderEven so, I hope you can take more care of yourself.但我还是希望，安朵丝能多考虑自己一些。

AndorisI am. And in choosing to care for myself... I want you to be the most important person in my life—the one encoded into the deepest layers of my mind.有哦，多考虑自己的结果就是……我想让指挥官成为我最重要的存在，成为我心智中的第一顺位。

AndorisA game of chess isn't mine to decide the outcome of, but when it comes to who holds the highest place in my heart... that choice belongs to me alone.棋局也许能够争个胜负，但在我这里，谁是第一顺位，是只有我自己能够决定的事情哦。

AndorisI hope you can embrace this outcome without worry, Commander.请你安心地接受这个结局吧，指挥官。

CommanderHave 404's commissions been going well lately, Andoris?安朵丝，最近404的行动还顺利吗？

AndorisYes. Recent missions have all been completed without a hitch. Everyone in 404 lent me their support, enabling me to make use of my strengths.嗯，最近的工作都十分顺利。404的大家都一直在配合我，让我能够发挥自己的长处。

AndorisBut Mechty did oversleep again and got herself some extra training from Leader Klukai as punishment. Should I plead her case, Commander?不过米什缇又因为睡过头被可露凯队长带去加练了。指挥官，我要帮米什缇求求情吗？

CommanderHaha. I'd reckon Klukai will let Mechty off the hook if you're the one pleading.呵呵呵，如果是安朵丝求情，可露凯或许会放过米什缇一次吧。

CommanderWhat kind of coffee is your favorite, Andoris?安朵丝最喜欢的咖啡是什么呢？

AndorisMy favorite? Though I'm always the one brewing for everyone, I've never really given it much thought.最喜欢的吗……虽然我经常给大家泡咖啡，但是却没有考虑过这个问题。

AndorisHowever, I've been enjoying affogato recently. By adding vanilla ice cream into the coffee, you get to enjoy two different flavors at the same time.不过最近我经常喝阿芙佳朵咖啡，将香草冰淇淋沉入咖啡之中，可以同时感受两种不同的口感。

AndorisLet me make one for you too next time, Commander.下一次我也准备一杯给指挥官尝尝吧。

CommanderThat G36K-KSK of yours, it's a variant of the Sturmgewehr 36, right?G36K-KSK，这把武器是G36的改进型吧。

AndorisIndeed. Though I'm far from fully mastering this weapon... It's still my best partner.嗯，虽然我还不能完全掌握这把武器……但是它是我最棒的搭档。

AndorisIf possible, may you spare some time to accompany me in target practice, Commander?指挥官，如果可以的话可以请您抽空陪我进行射击训练吗？

CommanderI'd be happy to.我很乐意。

CommanderAnything you've been fancying as of recently, Andoris?最近安朵丝有参加什么娱乐活动吗？

AndorisMechty and the others invited me to play video games with them... but there's so much information to process. It's not really my thing.最近米什缇她们有邀请我和她们一起玩电子游戏……不过要处理的信息实在是太多了，并不适合我。

AndorisMechty said I'm "on the same level as the Commander" when it comes to video games... Are you also a complete newbie at this, Commander?米什缇她们说我玩射击游戏的时候和指挥官一个水平……指挥官也不擅长电子游戏吗？

Commander...The last thing I want is to get roasted by someone who "died from hypothermia" in a game...……唯独不想被“冻死”的玩家这么说啊……

CommanderIt's been a while since you've boarded the Elmo, Andoris. Is there anything that isn't up to your specifications onboard?安朵丝已经来艾莫号有一段时间了，你觉得艾莫号上有什么缺点吗？

AndorisOn the Elmo? I think its facilities are already very comprehensive...艾莫号？我觉得艾莫号的设施已经十分完善了……

AndorisThough if I had to say, certain aspects of cleanliness and the overtime culture that you and Mayling partake in do fill me with concern.但是艾莫号的整洁问题，以及指挥官和美玲的加班问题让我很担心。

CommanderUhh... I'll find a way to deal with that...呃……我会想办法解决的……

CommanderSay, if I were to give you some time off to unwind and travel, where would you go, Andoris?如果可以找个时间放松一下去旅行，安朵丝会想去哪里呢？

AndorisHmm... I've never considered that.嗯……我没有考虑过这个问题呢。

AndorisBut anywhere the Commander and 404 are... is where I want to go.不过只要是指挥官和404小队所在的地方……我都想去。

CommanderThen let's plan a group trip for next time.那下一次就安排集体旅行吧。

The wafting aroma enchants, carrying away every trace of my weariness.扑鼻的芬芳，顷刻带走满身的疲惫。

The flavors blooming upon my tongue delight, filling my body with warmth and happiness.舌尖的绽放，幸福的暖意随即拥抱全身。

Prank Practice Ⅰ 恶作剧演练·Ⅰ

AndorisHere you are, Commander. Punctual as ever.您来了，指挥官。您和以前一样准时呢。

CommanderIf I promised you something, I'll do anything to keep my word. Heh... Sorry, I am a little tired from work right now, so I might not be in the best of conditions...已经答应了安朵丝，我就会尽力做到。哈啊……抱歉，今天工作有些疲惫，状态不太好……

(Andoris takes a step forward and closes in on me.)（安朵丝向我走了一步，更加靠近我。）

AndorisInviting you over was precisely to help relieve both your body and mind, Commander. If anything, you're in just the right state.邀请指挥官过来，就是为了替指挥官解决身心疲劳的问题哦。指挥官现在的状态，刚刚好哦。

CommanderSounds like I'm being your guinea pig today.听起来我有些像你的实验道具。

AndorisIs that so? Do you feel like an experimental subject?有吗？指挥官会觉得自己像实验道具吗？

AndorisThough, I must admit that there are a few ideas I'd like to try on you. And if the feedback is positive, we may even keep using these methods later...虽然，我确实有一些新的想法，想在指挥官身上尝试呢。如果效果好，这些做法就可以在以后沿用……

AndorisHehe, I guess your notion is not wrong from that point of view.呵呵，从这个角度，指挥官的想法确实没问题呢。

CommanderHmm... Just hearing you explain things like that makes me feel less tired than before.嗯……听安朵丝讲这些，我好像没有那么疲惫了。

AndorisIs that so? Just hearing me talk can help you relax?是这样吗？指挥官，只听我说话就能得到放松？

CommanderNot exactly... But I guess you could say that...不完全是……但大致可以这么讲吧……

(Slightly tilting her head, Andoris inches closer to the point where a strand of her soft blonde hair comes to rest on my shoulder.)（安朵丝微微歪了歪头，略略凑近我，她柔软的金发有一缕搭在了我的身上。）

AndorisThen what is it? Mind telling me, Commander?那是什么呢？指挥官，您可以告诉我吗？

AndorisIf you're too exhausted to elaborate, then I can make you some coffee.如果现在太困而讲不了话，我可以为您煮咖啡哦。

CommanderI thought you'd usher me to get some rest. You're really acting a little out of character today, Andoris.竟然不是让我去休息么？安朵丝和平常有些不一样呢。

AndorisMaking sure the Commander gets the right amount of rest is of course important, but right now, I...让指挥官好好休息当然很重要啦，但现在，我……

(Andoris seems somewhat hesitant.)（安朵丝有些犹豫。）

CommanderIt's okay, just tell me what's on your mind, Andoris.安朵丝有什么想法，可以直说。

AndorisWell... I've prepared some games that I want to play with you. But since you're so tired, making such requests would seem rather inconsiderate...其实……是准备了一些小游戏，想和指挥官一起试试。但现在指挥官状态不好，再提出这样的请求，就有些唐突了……

CommanderWhat kind of games are we talking about? If they're not super taxing or don't require much brainpower, I guess I can treat them as some sort of relaxation.是什么小游戏？如果对脑力和体力要求不高，我就当做休闲放松吧。

AndorisUhm... It's something like this...唔……大概是这样……

AndorisBut you need to close your eyes first, is that okay?指挥官，接下来请先闭上眼睛，可以吗？

CommanderVery cryptic, huh? You're not planning to prank me, are you...?有些神秘呢，你不会做什么恶作剧吧……

AndorisPlease close your eyes, Commander.请闭上眼睛吧。

(I close my eyes as Andoris requested. Then suddenly, I feel my entire face being enveloped by something soft yet heavy.)（我按照安朵丝的要求闭上了眼睛，然后我感到整张脸都被一股厚实的柔软所笼罩了。）

CommanderA-Andoris?安……安朵丝？

AndorisShh... Commander, let your body relax, and then listen...嘘……指挥官，请先放松身体，然后，倾听吧……

AndorisCan you hear it?是不是能听到什么？

Prank Practice Ⅱ 恶作剧演练·Ⅱ

CommanderAndoris...?安朵丝……？

CommanderI hear... a heartbeat? A clear and distinct heartbeat...我听到了……心跳声，清晰明了的心跳声……

AndorisYou must be mistaken. Dolls don't have heartbeats.您应该听错了，人形没有心跳哦。

CommanderBesides the heartbeat, I can tell that what's covering my eyes is very soft, but also hefty at the same time...除了心跳声，我能感觉到，压在我眼睛上的事物很厚实、很柔软……

AndorisHehe. Can you guess what it is, Commander?呵呵，指挥官可以猜猜看，是什么呢？

CommanderA big blanket? But the texture doesn't feel right. A pillow? It can't be...厚毯子？但质地不太像。枕头？但安朵丝没理由这么做……

CommanderIt's really hard to tell.真的很难想呢。

AndorisIs that so? I guess the Commander really isn't the best at picking up on these things.是吗？指挥官真的对这方面很迟钝呢。

AndorisWhen you're in command of battles, you're sharper than anyone else—much like Leader Klukai...指挥作战时的指挥官，有着远超常人的敏锐，和可露凯队长不相上下……

AndorisYet this bewildered look you're displaying makes for such a strong contrast... A very charming contrast, that is...现在这副有些茫然的模样，让指挥官显得很有反差感呢，但也很吸引人……

Commander...Am I really as amazing as you're describing?……我有安朵丝说得这么好吗？

AndorisHehe, why wouldn't you be?呵呵，哪里没有呢？

(I feel a warm, dry hand gently lift my chin and then proceeds to comb my slightly messy hair.)（我能感觉到，一只温暖干燥的手轻轻勾起我的下巴，又为我梳理有些凌乱毛躁的头发。）

(The weight pressing against my face suddenly vanishes, replaced by more of Andoris' gentle fragrance. Within that aroma lingers a faint coffee-like bitterness, but not an unpleasant one.)（压在脸上的重量消失了，我能感受到的，是更多来自于安朵丝的温柔香气。香气中，仿佛弥漫着咖啡的浅淡苦意，却从不让人讨厌。）

CommanderMay I open my eyes now, Andoris?安朵丝，我可以睁开眼睛了吗？

AndorisY-y-y-yes—可可可可可——

CommanderAndoris?安朵丝？

Andoris...…………………………

CommanderDid you just crash? I'm going to open my eyes now, Andoris. I need to make sure you're okay.不会宕机了吧？安朵丝，我要睁开眼了哦。比起游戏，更重要的是你的素体一切正常。

(Just as I'm about to open my eyes, a sudden, unexpected sweet embrace of her lips brushes against my forehead.)（我正准备睁开眼睛，额头上落下了一个让人猝不及防的轻吻。）

(Frozen, my entire vision is now occupied by Andoris' face, inches away and smiling brightly. Her hands are still combing through my hair.)（在我僵住之际，安朵丝放大许多倍的脸正在眼前，笑意盈盈地看着我。她的手还在无意识地梳理着我的发丝。）

CommanderAndoris...安朵丝……

AndorisHehe, I'm here, Commander.呵呵，我在哦，指挥官。

Commander...Did you just crash, Andoris?……安朵丝刚才，是宕机了吗？

(She turns her head away ever so slightly as a faint blush reddens her pale cheeks.)（安朵丝微微偏过头，白皙的脸颊上微微浮起一丝红晕。）

AndorisI... I don't know. Maybe... maybe it's simply a curious Doll playing a small prank on the person she's most curious about...我……不知道哦，也许……也许只是好奇的人，对她最好奇的对象，进行的一次小小的恶作剧吧……

Prank Practice Ⅲ 恶作剧演练·Ⅲ

AndorisDo you dislike this kind of prank, Commander?指挥官，您会讨厌这样的恶作剧吗？

AndorisAlthough I already have an idea of what your answer would be, but... Hearing it from yourself will make me feel more at ease...虽然，能猜到您的答案。但是……亲耳听到答案从您口中说出时，我会感到更加安心……

AndorisHehe. It's like you've got this calming magic to you.呵呵，指挥官一直都有让人安定的魔力呢。

AndorisOne that makes others want to get close to you, to learn more about you, and to share ourselves with you...让人想要亲近，想要更加了解您，也想要被您更加了解……

AndorisEven as a Doll, I can't help but be deeply drawn to you.即使我作为人形，也一直被您强烈吸引着。

AndorisOh my, look at how you're blushing. Was it because of my words?呵呵，指挥官脸红了。我的话，原来也会让您脸红吗？

AndorisDoes that mean I've improved when it comes to communicating with the Commander...?我是不是在和指挥官交流这方面，进步了一点点？

Commander...You did, though the direction is a little weird...……进步了，虽然方向有些奇怪……

AndorisHow so?奇怪在哪里呢？

CommanderAndoris, do you really have no idea?安朵丝，是真的不知道答案吗？

AndorisIf you say so, let me think a-a-a-a-about—既然您这么说，那我再思考考考考——————

(Andoris freezes again. Although the warm and spring-like smile lingers on her face, not another word forms out of her mouth.)（安朵丝再度僵住了，尽管脸上还维持着和煦如春日暖阳的笑容，唇中却一个词都无法继续说出。）

CommanderAndoris?安朵丝？

Andoris...………………

CommanderDid you actually crash this time? Or is it another prank?这次是真宕机了吗？还是恶作剧？

Andoris...…………………………

CommanderLet me put it to test then. If it's a prank—那我测试一下吧？如果是恶作剧——

(I gently stroke Andoris' blonde hair. She remains unresponsive.)（我轻轻碰了碰安朵丝的金发，她的状态依旧。）

CommanderNo reaction from touching the hair, then—触碰发丝没有反应么，那么——

(I move in closer, holding up Andoris' face with both my hands, staring straight into her eyes.)（我靠近安朵丝，用双手捧住安朵丝的脸，眼睛一眨不眨地注视着她的双眸。）

Andoris..., ..., ...……，……，…………

(Her body trembles ever so slightly. Even though her face still holds the same expression as when she crashed, the blush has spread across her entire cheeks.)（安朵丝的身体极细微地颤抖了一下。她白皙的脸颊虽然仍维持着宕机的模样，红晕却已经爬上了她的脸颊。）

(Our face gets so close that I can start counting her eyelashes.)（我的脸和安朵丝越靠越近，近到我能数清她的睫毛数量。）

Andoris......, ......, .........!…………，………………，………………！

(I press her cheeks with both hands to make her lips form a pout. Meanwhile, her eyes, which usually conceal all emotions behind a serene gentleness, finally reveal something else.)（我的手一左一右挤压她的脸颊，她的双唇被迫嘟起。那双将情绪隐藏得很好的眼睛，终于流露出除温柔以外的情绪。）

AndorisC-Commander, I thought you were going to...指，指挥官，我以为您是要……

(Andoris grabs onto my hands, holding them within her palms. Her blush lingers on as her normally gentle expression is now tinged with a hint of shyness.)（安朵丝捉住我的两只手，反握在自己的掌心。她的脸颊上红晕未散，惯常温柔的脸上，多出了一丝与平常不同的羞涩。）

Prank Practice Ⅳ 恶作剧演练·Ⅳ

CommanderYou know, those two "crashes" were pretty convincing. Unfortunately...其实，安朵丝的两次宕机伪装都很好。只可惜……

CommanderHad you held on just a little longer, you would've gotten me with the act, making your prank successful...如果刚刚安朵丝能多忍耐一会儿，我就要被你的伪装骗过去，安朵丝的恶作剧也就能成功了……

AndorisI see...是这样啊……

AndorisSo I still need to work on it. Pulling off a prank is harder than I thought.所以，我还需要再努力一些，做恶作剧，比我想象的要难呢。

CommanderYou've already done a great job.安朵丝已经做得很好了。

AndorisHehe. But I reckon you did a better job at it, Commander. The way you tested me to see if I was pulling a prank on you was in itself a sort of trick, wasn't it?呵呵，指挥官做得更好呀。刚刚您测试我是不是在恶作剧的那些举动，本身也是一种恶作剧吧？

AndorisSuch tests are still too much for me.这样的测试，对我来说太难了。

AndorisI thought... you were going to kiss me, so I closed my eyes...我以为……您是要亲吻我，所以闭上了眼睛……

AndorisTurns out it was just a trick...原来只是恶作剧么……

(As she gets to the word "trick", Andoris' voice suddenly lowers, sounding a little disappointed.)（说到“恶作剧”时，安朵丝的嗓音很低，显得很失落。）

CommanderI apologize, but the way you tried so hard to act as if you crashed was simply too cute. It is I who has gone too far.抱歉，只是强忍着伪装宕机的安朵丝很可爱，是我玩得有些过分了。

AndorisMmm... Commander, can you...嗯……指挥官，您可不可以……

CommanderCan I...?什么？

(With Andoris still talking in a soft voice, I inadvertently lean towards her.)（安朵丝的声音还是很低，我不自主地离她更近。）

AndorisMwah~啾~

CommanderEh?诶？

AndorisHehe. You were quite cooperative on that one, Commander.呵呵，指挥官很配合呢。

(As I lean in, trying to catch her words, she gently kisses me right on the lips.)（在我因为想要听清她的话，而不由自主离她更近时，她给了我一个轻柔的吻，正好落在双唇上。）

(Now smiling at me, a faint glimmer of smug pride appears in Andoris' gentle gaze, like a soft, fluffy fox—gentle in appearance, but cunning at heart—finally bringing her long-awaited plan to fruition.)（此时朝我微笑的安朵丝，温和的双眸中有了一丝丝得意。仿佛她准备许久的计划最终完美落地，此刻的她像一只表面温顺、内里狡黠、毛发蓬松的小狐狸。）

CommanderI need to take back my previous statement.我需要收回我之前的评价。

AndorisEh? Why?诶？为什么？

AndorisDid I... do something wrong?我……我做错了吗？

AndorisCommander, I just wanted to help you relax, but if this offended you, I can apolo—指挥官，我只是想让您更放松，但如果这样冒犯了您，我可以向您道——

CommanderNo need to apologize. What I meant to say is your prank was a complete success. Were all the "failures" also part of your plan?不需要道歉。我的意思是，安朵丝的恶作剧相当成功，之前的“失败”，是安朵丝的设计吗？

(Andoris covers her mouth before bursting into a giggle, her blonde hair quivering on her shoulders.)（安朵丝捂着嘴笑了起来，金发在她的肩头随之微微抖动。）

AndorisNo. That wasn't a prank; it was what I really wanted to do. Since I got what I wanted, I'm very happy now.不是哦。刚刚不是恶作剧，是我真的想要这么做。而我最终也成功如愿，我现在，非常开心。

AndorisSo then, having pulled off my little prank on you, Commander... It's your turn now.那么，既然我已经满足了恶作剧的愿望，指挥官……接下来就轮到您。

AndorisFeel free to do anything you want with me. I'll go along with you... every step of the way.想对我做什么都可以，我绝对……会好好配合您的。

CommanderIn that case, don't expect me to hold back then.这样的话，我可就不客气喽？

CommanderThe seasoning is fine, but the texture could use some adjustment.调味不错，但是感觉口感上还可以有些可以调整的地方。

Weapon Maintenance 武器保养

AndorisCommander? What brings you here? Are you here to maintain your sidearm?指挥官？您怎么来了，是要保养配枪吗？

CommanderI actually had that in mind. But Andoris, aren't you holding way too many guns?确实有这个想法。安朵丝你手中的枪是不是太多了？

AndorisAh... these are the weapons everyone entrusted me for maintenance. I can also help maintain your sidearm, Commander.啊……这些是大家委托我保养的武器。指挥官的配枪我也可以帮忙保养哦。

Such delicate technique...好精细的手法……

You can help me with it?可以拜托你吗？

CommanderYou really have an affinity for maintaining firearms, Andoris.安朵丝真的很擅长保养枪械呢。

AndorisDisassembling and assembling of firearms follow strict procedures, so unexpected situations rarely occur.枪械的拆解和组装都有严格的步骤，因此基本不会出现意想不到的情况。

AndorisBesides, it's precisely my encounter with them that eventually took me to where I belong now.而且，正因为与枪的邂逅才有我现在的容身之处。

AndorisOf course I can!当然！

AndorisSharing the load with everyone...和大家一起分担吗……

CommanderYou've always taken on everyone's workload in secret.安朵丝总是默默地替大家承担工作。

CommanderBut when difficulties arise, instead of stressing all alone, handling them together with comrades is a much more efficient choice.但是遇到困难的时候，比起一个人苦恼，和同伴们一起处理会是更高效的选择哦。

AndorisI see, Commander.我明白了，指挥官。

AndorisStill, the fact that you're coming over often... Does that mean you've been doing a lot of overtime recently?不过，经常来的话，是不是说明……指挥官最近，总在加班呢？

AndorisAlthough a little extra work is unavoidable at this point... That's no excuse for you to rely so heavily on caffeine, Commander!虽然到了这个节点，忙碌一些在所难免……不过指挥官还是不可以太依赖咖啡因哦！

CommanderEr... That's true, but I remember you said something about making me a special blend as a thank-you gift, didn't you?呃……话是这么说，但我还记得，你说过会给我调一杯特调，当做谢礼的吧？

AndorisAh, there's no deceiving you, Commander.哎呀，没能骗过指挥官呢。

Affinity Records 契合度记录

Record 1Imprint Model: G36K-KSK. A civilian Doll developed by IOP for the service industry. Andoris' model boasts design features such as an attractive appearance, friendly demeanor, accommodating character, and flexible applications. To achieve such a high level of humanization, Andoris is equipped with an advanced emotional-reasoning module paired with a high-capacity data storage unit. However, this design decision indirectly causes her memory cache to be operating at near-full capacity at all times, resulting in a critical flaw—while proficient at collecting and storing information, her moment-to-moment data processing and decision-making skills are lacking. In other words, she's an airheaded beauty. While a joy to have a leisurely conversation with, she will spell disaster for anyone who forgets to promptly issue instructions and leaves her to her own devices during an emergency. As a result, despite her pleasant and approachable demeanor, she received a large volume of complaints for her poor customer service efficiency. Consequently, all of her stints in employment were short-lived. When she had reached her rock bottom, Andoris was taken in by Springfield, the manager of a café in the satellite city. Through a series of events, her excellent information-gathering skills and storage capacity caught the eye of Leva, an occasional customer at the café, who then recommended her to Klukai. She was eventually recruited as a member of H.I.D.E. 404 Team A. Although Andoris is tolerant in most circumstances and rarely gets emotional, her demeanor gives people the impression that there's more than meets the eye... However, close acquaintances of hers know very well that she really is just an extremely accommodating and "slightly" laid-back individual.烙印枪种G36K-KSK，曾是I.O.P.研发的、用于投放至窗口行业的民用人形。美丽、亲切、善于倾听、包容力强、协调性高，是安朵丝的设计特点。 为了达到如此之高的人性化需求，安朵丝加载了算法极为复杂的情感逻辑模块以及强大的本地存储空间，但这也直接导致其可搭载的缓存空间长期处于占满的状态，因而也形成了致命的缺陷——仅仅拥有信息收集与存储能力，缺乏瞬时决策与信息处理功能。 简单点说，就是迟钝美人。 和她温声慢语地聊聊天是种享受，但一遇到紧急事态，如果没有及时的指令下达而是任由她自己处理，就有可能是灾难。 所以，即便安朵丝有着良好的服务态度，也因服务效率欠佳而收到了大量投诉，这导致她每一段工作的任期都不长。 走投无路之时，安朵丝被在卫星城经营咖啡馆的春田收留。 在一次偶然的机会下，她优秀的情报收集与储存能力被不定时光顾咖啡馆的莱娅看中，遂推荐给可露凯，并最终被招募为404第1作战队的成员。 对于大部分遭遇都逆来顺受，似乎从来没生过气，这反而让人觉得在她温婉的笑容之后，好像还隐藏着什么别的东西……但熟悉安朵丝的人知道，她真的只是极度包容外加松弛感“略”强而已。

Record 2"...In summary, your performance during the trial period did not meet our company's requirements for the position. Therefore, we regret to inform you that..." In a tiny room measuring less than 20 square meters, Andoris carefully reads the termination notice she just received. "Hah...? Why are you highlighting the reason you got fired for?" "To see if I can improve upon my mistakes?" "Come on... It's clearly a copy-pasted template; there's no point reading into it. Listen to me sing instead." The room's owner, Andoris' colleague—or former colleague, to be exact—sits across from Andoris with a guitar on her lap. "Thank you for taking me in even though we're not colleagues anymore, Annie. I am very grateful." "Because you're great to have around! So pretty and gentle, you're the best Doll I've ever met! It's the manager who overreacted", the colleague responds, seemingly upset at the injustice her friend suffered. "All you did was not react in time." "Well, letting the shutter door hit customers in the face is not okay... especially for the third time in a month. I can see why the manager got upset." Hearing her colleague sympathize with her, Andoris gently smiles. "Besides... I'm nowhere near being the best Doll ever. My model has already been discontinued due to the data processing speed not meeting expectations along with the frequent crashes." "How could that be... none of this is your fault. If anything, the designer should be the one held responsible." "Maybe, but it's okay." Andoris stands up and walks to the window—with the room located on the 37th floor, she can overlook the entire city. The night is late, but the city yet sleeps. Colorful patches of light from the nightlife flicker as sporadically as the error messages popping up in Andoris' neural cloud whenever she crashes. "I'll keep searching. Maybe a place better suited for me waits somewhere else."“……综上所述，您在试用期内的表现未能满足我司对该职位的要求。因此，我们很遗憾地通知您……” 不到二十平米的小房间内，安朵丝正专心地阅读着刚收到的解雇邮件。 “哈……你怎么还把解雇理由标注出来啊？” “看看之后能不能改进？” “拜托……这些一看就是模板，没有参考价值啦，不如来听我唱歌吧？” 房间的主人、安朵丝的同事，严格来说现在已经是前同事了，她拎着一把吉他坐在了安朵丝对面。 “谢谢你，安妮，明明已经不是同事了，还愿意收留我，我很感激。” “因为安朵丝很好啊！这么漂亮，性格还这么温柔，是我见过的最好的人形！是经理的反应太过激了啦！”同事显得有些忿忿不平，“明明当时你只是没反应过来而已。” “但那样任由卷帘门拍到客人脸上是不可以的。而且……是这个月的第3次了，经理会生气也很正常。”听到同事为自己鸣不平，安朵丝轻柔地笑了笑，“而且……我也不是最好的人形哦。因为数据处理速度与预期不符，宕机太过频繁，我这个型号已经停产了。” “怎么会这样嘛……那这也不是安朵丝的错啊，设计之初就有问题。” “也许吧，但是没关系哦。” 安朵丝站起了身，来到窗边——这间屋子在37楼，从这里能俯瞰整座城市。 已经深夜了，它却并未完全睡去。 夜间作业的灯光形成的斑斓色块，和安朵丝每次宕机时、心智中涌现而出的大量报错警告一样断断续续。 “我会继续寻找的，更适合我的工作正在哪里等着我也说不定。”

Record 3Taking care of the elderly is no small feat. Although Andoris had studied the ins and outs of being a caregiver before accepting the position, it wasn't until she actually started working that she fully realized just how complex and sizable of a job it truly was. Life at the nursing home may seem uneventful on the surface, but unexpected situations can arise at any moment. It's during these moments—when multiple commands must be executed at once—that Andoris' performance limitations become apparent. For example, once, while assisting a senior in the shower, she forgot to execute the command to turn off the showerhead. As a result, both of them got soaked, and worse, slipped and fell. In another case, a senior suddenly began choking while Andoris was pouring water for him. When she attempted to intervene, the new command conflicted with the previous "pour water" instruction, causing her to crash on the spot. Records of similar incidents number in the dozens. Eventually, Andoris was assigned to care for an elderly woman with Alzheimer's. Her body and memory were slowly withering away, like an antiquated tree in the final days of autumn. Most of the time, she sits silently in her wheelchair, staring out the window like a statue. Beyond her basic needs like food, and hygiene, she asks for little else. As long as things remain predictable, Andoris will not need to worry about crashing. Everything moves smoothly when she's around this woman. During rare moments of clarity, the woman would flip through an old photo album, recounting faded stories behind the pictures. Stories of her daughter, her son, her friends, and herself. These aren't particularly remarkable stories, but to Andoris, they stir a strange sense of familiarity... a feeling she once felt with her previous coworkers. When Andoris shares this feeling and asks how she might preserve it, the woman pauses, looking at her with a calm and kind gaze. "That feeling... It's the bond between people." "The bond...? You mean...?" "When I talk to you, a small, fragile bond forms between us. And when people go through joy or sadness together, that bond deepens. The stronger the bond, the stronger that feeling." "I... I don't really understand..." The woman smiles. "Everyone has a different name for it. For me, the people and places that give me that feeling are my belonging: my husband, my children, the house I lived in... But now, I can hardly remember any of it." There is a trace of loneliness in her smile. Andoris instinctively places her hand over the woman's. "Belonging?" "Yes. It's something many people search for. It's hard to put into words... but it's a place where you feel safe, where people accept one another. A place that just feels right." Andoris ponders the words, then nods, as if something clicked. "Then, for me... this job brings me peace. You tolerate my mistakes, and I feel happy knowing I'm needed. So... this is where I belong." "Before coming here, I was always searching for a job that would accept me forever... Maybe that's just how my base-layer code works. Even now, I mess up a lot and struggle to keep up, but doing this makes me happy." "I hope I can stay here." The woman, who has been listening silently, gently closes the album in her lap. She looks at Andoris directly. Her eyes, usually clouded by illness, now hold a rare clarity. "My girl... if that's truly your wish, then I'm afraid this isn't the place you're looking for." The woman has always been kind, more forgiving of Andoris' mistakes than anyone else in the nursing home. But now, her words leave Andoris dumbfounded, her usual smooth procedure halted mid-operation. Andoris has crashed again. The conversation has now ended abruptly, interrupted by Andoris' system failure and the woman's growing fatigue. Later, the woman's condition deteriorated rapidly. The last time Andoris heard her voice was through a recording given to her by the director. "My girl... I'm sorry. That conversation we had that day... We'll never get to finish it face-to-face. I don't fully understand how a Doll's mind works, but if a human keeps searching for something... it must mean it truly matters to them." A pause. The soft hiss of the ventilator and the steady beeping of medical equipment fill the silence. "That job you kept looking for—that place where mutual acceptance exists—might've been pre-programmed, just like you said, but over time... It has become part of your heart." The recording falls silent for a long time. "A human's life is short... and fragile... especially for someone like me, already at the end of their road... I'm sorry, my girl. Belonging is made of people and places. And this place... can only be a temporary stop for you..." Her faint voice, muffled behind the breathing mask, is like the winter gales, sweeping across the barren land and encompassing all in its freezing cold. "Go find more places... meet more people... or perhaps... more of your own kind." My own kind. Andoris repeats those words in her mind. As the recording ends, the world begins to shift. The breath of spring starts to melt the frost. And within Andoris' neural cloud, a thought quietly takes root: —to leave this place. —to find new people. —to seek where she truly belongs.照顾人类的老人并不是一项简单的工作。 虽然上任前查阅过护工这个职位的相关资料，但实际上手工作后，安朵丝才充分体会到这些“不简单”。 囿于养老院的老人们的生活看似一成不变，实则状况百出，在这种情况下，必须多重指令同时作用，而她的性能缺陷再次暴露—— 比如，想要去扶洗澡的老人，但没有生成关上花洒的指令，结果两个人摔到了一起还淋了一身水。 再比如，给一位老人喂水的时候，对方突然呛住，安朵丝想要去拍他的后背，但是因喂水指令没有及时中止，而被迫原地宕机。 类似的事还有很多。 最后，安朵丝被安排去照顾一位患有阿尔茨海默病的老人。 她的身体和记忆都在慢慢凋零，如同一棵步入冬天的老树。 多数时间里，她都像一尊沉默的雕塑，静静地坐在轮椅上，看着窗外的风景，除了基本的饮食、卫生，鲜少有其他需求。 只要没有意外，安朵丝就不会宕机，也就不会出错，在这位老人的身边，一切都可以按照安排平稳地进行。 在老人偶尔清醒的时间里，她会翻着相册，和安朵丝断断续续地诉说那些尘封在照片里的、泛黄了的故事。 那些故事里有她的女儿、她的儿子、她的朋友、还有她自己…… 那些故事并不特别，却让安朵丝莫名感到平静又熟悉……有点像之前和前同事相处时的感觉。 当她向老人表达自己的想法，并询问如何才能留住这种感受时，老人停止翻动相册，平静而温和地看着安朵丝。 “那种感觉，是人与人之间的链接。” “链接……？您的意思是……” “就像现在我和你说话，我们之间就形成了微弱的链接。人与人相处，不管双方之间发生了幸福的事，还是痛苦的事，都是在加深彼此之间的联系。你与其他人之间的链接越深刻，你就越会产生这种感觉。” “我、我不太懂……” 老人笑了笑。 “每个人会对它有不同的称呼。与我而言，给我这种感觉的人和地方，就是我的归宿。我的丈夫、我的子女，我曾经居住的房子……都是我的归宿……只是我快要记不得他们了。” 老人的笑容中流露出一丝寂寥，安朵丝不自觉地将手覆盖在老人的手上。 “归宿？” “是啊，是很多人都想要的东西。我想想该如何说得更清楚一点……就是一个可以让人感到安心，可以相互接纳，对于置身其中的人来说，都最合适的环境。” 安朵丝慢慢地思考着，而后了然地点点头。 “那么……对于我来说，现在的工作让我感到安心，因为您能够包容我的失误，而我也因为被您需要而感到快乐，这里……就是我的归宿。” “在来到这里之前，我反复寻找着一份我可以一直做下去的工作……虽然这应该只是出厂时就写入的系统逻辑。现在我也还总是手忙脚乱，但我确实为此感到开心。” “我希望，能够留在这里。” 一直静静听着的老人，合上了手中的相册。 她定睛看着安朵丝，那双因病痛折磨而略显浑浊的眼眸恢复了一丝清澈。 “孩子，如果这是你的愿望，我想这里还不是你寻找的地方。” 清醒时的她一直是个温和的人，比这里的任何一位老人都能体谅安朵丝的失误，然而此时，她的回答却让安朵丝一时无法处理，原本顺利运行的程序戛然而止。 安朵丝又宕机了。 那天的对话因为安朵丝的宕机和老人的疲惫戛然而止。 再后来，老人的病情急转直下，最后一次听见她清醒时的声音，是通过院长带给她的录音笔。 “孩子，很抱歉，那一天的对话……恐怕永远都无法面对面与你继续下去了……人形的思维方式我并不了解，但是人会持续追寻的东西，对他来说一定是最重要的。” 老人顿了顿，呼吸机均匀的滴滴声混杂在她粗重的喘息里。 “你反复寻找着的那份合适的工作……那个……那个可以与你互相接纳的环境……也许就像你说的，曾经……只是出于功能需要而写入的逻辑。但是时间久了，它也渐渐写入了你的心里吧……” 语音中断了很久。 “人类的生命很短暂……也很脆弱……尤其还是我这个即将入土的老太太……很抱歉……我的孩子。归宿……是由人和场所构成的……这里……只能是你短暂落脚的地方……” 应该是隔着呼吸面罩，她遥远且含糊的声音，如同冬日里的寒风，将万物冻结。 “去更多地方试试看……去认识更多人，或者你的同类吧……” 我的，同类。 安朵丝反复默念着这个词汇。 随着录音的戛然而止，万物流转，春天的吐息让冰雪消融。 一个新的念头也随之在安朵丝的心智之中生根发芽。 ——离开这里，去更多的地方，去认识更多的人。 ——为了寻找自己真正的“归宿”。

Record 4Kzzt—[Sound of switching video] "Welcome, welcome♪ 404 has finally welcomed a new member~!" "We might not be going on missions together just yet, but once you're in 404, you're family! If you need any help, just contact me directly, okay? Hehe~" Kzzt—[Sound of switching video] "Having made it through 416's test successfully... You are worthy of my expectations after all~ Well done, Andoris. You've finally found a place that you need and also needs you in return." "From now on, please take care of 416 and Gr G11 while I'm away with Lenna. I hope you can steadily become the trusty backup they can rely on." Kzzt—[Sound of switching video] "Andoris... your thighs are really nice, super comfy to nap on~ Truly worthy of the title 'Sanctuary of the Midday Nap'... What does that mean? Oh, I just made it up~" "See? Just like this, I lie down... and count to 3... 3..." "Zzzzzzzzz......" ... As the highlight of Andoris' welcome party, the screen plays a series of short video messages recorded by the founding members of Squad 404 to welcome their new member. Despite being out of the loop, Klukai immediately notices the video has ended after just three clips. "What about me?" A simple question carrying a dreadful aura. "Well, you're just too intimidating, Klukai... The technician in charge of filming said she was afraid you'd scold her for being superfluous or disrupting the training... See? She's still hiding back there, peeking at you..." "Oh my, I think if our new leader has to keep frowning for another 30 seconds, she might just quit this party right now," says Leva teasingly. "I-It's not THAT dramatic, Leva..." "Anyone would be scared if the 'Krokodil' giving them the death stare~" Glancing at the girl peeking nervously from behind the curtain, Klukai sighs and tries to appear a bit more approachable. "...Leave her be." Unexpectedly, Andoris starts cheerfully waving in that direction the very next moment. "Hey Miss Jolin~ The Leader asks if you can come over for a moment~?" "What are you doing, Andoris?!" Klukai asks, clearly flustered as Jolin cautiously approaches. "Aren't you a little disappointed about not being in the welcome video? Miss Jolin still has the equipment, we can still film your part." "I'm not disappointed." The curt reply stands in contrast to her evasive gaze. "I see... Then let's say I am the one who would feel disappointed if I didn't get a proper welcome from my new leader. Is that okay?" "...Make it quick." "Of course~ Leader Klukai~ Let's find somewhere quieter to film with Miss Jolin, shall we?" As Andoris gently tugs a visibly awkward Klukai off to the side, the other three members of Squad 404 let out a collective breath of relief. It has nothing to do with strength or with experience. From now on, Andoris won't have to leave again.咔滋——视频切换的声音 “欢迎欢迎♪404终于又迎来一位新成员啦~” “虽然因为工作原因，我们没法一起行动，但只要加入了404，就是一家人了哟，有什么需要帮忙的，安朵丝可以直接联络我哦，嘿嘿~” 咔滋——视频切换的声音 “能够顺利通过那个416的考验，不愧是我看中的人呢~太好了，安朵丝，终于找到了一个你需要，也需要你的地方了~” “那么从今往后，416和G11就交给你啦，我和莱娜不在的日子，就请你慢慢成长为她们坚实的后盾吧。” 咔滋——视频切换的声音 “安朵丝……的大腿很不错，枕着很舒服哇，无愧于‘午睡圣地’的称号……称号？我封的啦……” “因为你看，只要像这样，枕着……然后……数3下……3……” “Zzzzzzzzzz……” …… 作为安朵丝的欢迎会上的压轴节目，屏幕上播放着404的各位元老们为新成员录制的视频片段。 对节目筹备毫不知情的可露凯，自然发现三段过后视频便中断了。 “我呢？” 简短的疑问句，释放出了强大的威压感。 “那还不是可露凯太凶了……负责在据点录制的维护人员怕你说她多此一举、耽误训练嘛……喏，你看，她现在还躲在那边观察你呢……” “哎呀，我们的新任队长大人只要再绷着脸超过半分钟，恐怕她就会马上退出这次欢迎会哦？” “也、也没那么夸张吧，莱娅姐。” “任谁被‘鳄鱼’盯上，都会害怕嘛~” 瞥了一眼躲在欢迎会帷幕后，不断向这里张望的少女，可露凯叹了口气，并试图让自己显得“温和”一些。 “……随她吧。” 不料，就在下一秒，安朵丝却开心地朝着对方挥了挥手。 “呵呵，乔琳小姐，队长麻烦您过来一下呢~” “安朵丝，你做什么？”面对一脸试探靠近过来的乔琳，反倒是可露凯变得有些无措。 “队长不是因为没有被拍进视频里而遗憾吗？乔琳小姐正好带着录像设备，现在补拍也来得及呢。” “我没有。”干脆利落的回答背后，却是可露凯闪躲的目光。 “这样啊……那就当成，我的欢迎会如果得不到队长的祝福，会感到遗憾，可以吗？” “………速战速决。” “好的~可露凯队长。那我们跟乔琳小姐去找个安静的地方拍摄吧。” 看着别别扭扭被安朵丝拉着走远的可露凯，404的其余三名成员彻底放下心来—— 无关实力，无关经验，但是安朵丝不需要再离开了。

Record 5Although Andoris isn't especially proficient with firearms—to the point of being jokingly referred to as a "white-armored goon of a certain space-faring empire" by Mechty—she's very fond of her imprinted weapon: the G36K-KSK. Back when she was still a civilian Doll, Andoris didn't know much about firearms. As such, when it came time to choose an imprint-compatible weapon, she was completely lost amid a sea of incomprehensible model numbers and code words. And yet, despite not understanding a thing, her eyes landed on that specific rifle instantly. Even though her compatibility with it wasn't particularly high, she chose it without hesitation; simply because it reminded her of Centaureissi—the backbone that propped up the Zucchero. With weapon imprints being the fundamental aspect of any given T-Doll, by picking a gun similar to that of Centaureissi, she hopes that maybe—just maybe—one day, she could grow to be just as strong as her. Most people, upon hearing her reasoning, would realize that there isn't much correlation between one's imprint and strength, yet none have the heart to crush Andoris' hopeful dream. In her free time, Andoris' favorite activity is maintaining her weapon. In fact, merely maintaining it isn't enough; she spends the majority of her paychecks on paints and accessories. Urban camo, dazzle camo, jungle camo, desert camo... Every so often, she gives her gun a complete makeover. "Whoa... you actually have THIS many spray cans just for camos?" On one occasion, Mechty visited Andoris' dorm and was stunned to see the neatly arranged spray cans covering an entire wall. "Wouldn't painting new camo every so often be a big hassle? You have to remove the old paint every time..." "Hehe, not at all. Just like how you never get bored playing games, this is my hobby." "Interesting. You weren't even a T-Doll originally, but you're more obsessed with weapons than most of them..." As Mechty babbled, Andoris paused her cleaning and gently ran her hand along the barrel of the rifle. "I used to think I'd be stuck forever in the service industry. I wasn't even doing a good job... Becoming a T-Doll was something I would never have dreamed of." "Becoming one showed me a future with potentials I would've never realized. As for weapons... they are the embodiment of a T-Doll, which is probably why I've grown so attached to them." "Ah~ Affection by association. Makes sense." Mechty nodded in understanding. This cold, destructive instrument of power gave Andoris a sense of purpose. With her rifle in hand, she's now filled with the will and strength to protect everything... Including her past self who was once lost, rejected, and afraid.虽然安朵丝并不能很好地控制自己的枪械，也一度被米什缇戏称为“描边大师”，但她很喜欢自己的配枪——G36K-KSK。曾作为民用人形的安朵丝，在选择烙印枪种时，其实并不了解枪械本身的特点，但却在一列她完全看不懂的适配枪种中，一眼相中了这个型号，哪怕这个型号的适配性并不算很高。原因无他，只是因为这一串文字让她想起了桑朵莱希。 桑朵莱希是方糖的中流砥柱，烙印枪种又是战术人形的核心要素，那么如果她与桑朵莱希的烙印枪种类似的话，迟早有一天也能成长为对方那样强大的人形吧？ 虽然一般人听到这个理由都知道其中毫无关联性可言，但面对这样相信着的安朵丝，也没人忍心击碎她的美好期盼。 工作之余，安朵丝最喜欢干的事就是保养自己的配枪。 保养还不够，她的任务酬金有大半都花费在了购买枪械涂装和配件上。 城市迷彩、几何迷彩、雨林迷彩、荒漠迷彩…… 每隔一段时间，安朵丝就会为自己的配枪换一个涂装。 “唔哇……居然有这么多迷彩喷罐。” 有一次米什缇去到安朵丝的房间里，对着安朵丝整墙摆放整齐的喷罐感叹道。 “换色换得那么频繁，不会觉得麻烦吗？每次都得把原来的迷彩去掉什么的……” “呵呵，不会哦，就像米什缇也不会觉得打游戏无聊吧，这个是我的爱好。” “真奇妙啊，安朵丝明明之前不是战术人形，但比很多战术人形都要热衷于武器呢……” 听到米什缇的叨念，安朵丝停止了擦拭手中的枪械，用手轻轻抚摸着枪管。 “我以前觉得自己大概永远会在服务行业待下去，虽然我做得也并不好……成为战术人形，是想都没想过的事呢。” “成为战术人形，让我看到了自己更多的可能性。而枪是战术人形的象征……所以我才格外热衷于枪械吧。” “哦~爱屋及乌，合理的。” 米什缇了然地点点头。 冰冷、蕴含着毁灭的力量的枪械，却让安朵丝有了存在的意义。 每当将枪握于手中之时，她似乎也拥有了守护一切的力量，包括曾经那个迷茫的、总是被拒绝的自己。

Record 6"Commander, were you looking for me?" Seeing Andoris step into the ops room, I put down the work I had on hand. In my mind, I quickly rehearsed what I was about to say. "Here's the thing. Andoris, your capacity for understanding and empathy is really remarkable. Not to mention you're always able to offer uplifting encouragement when others are feeling down. I truly admire and like that about you." "Hehe, glad I can help everyone out. I also always hoped I could shoulder more things for you outside of work, Commander." "But... there's something I want to know. Do you usually comfort people with hugs?" "Hugs, you say?" Before I can continue, a soft pressure suddenly presses on the back of my head, and I'm gently pulled into a warm embrace, my face buried in something incredibly soft. "...Yes." "I believe hugs are one of the most effective ways to express comfort and care," Andoris says in a harmless, tender tone. "Like during that time when Miss Krolik and Miss Nemesis were fighting, I hugged Miss Krolik, and that did effectively stop the argument in terms of result." ...The truth is, rather than "effectively stopping the argument", it would be better described that her action instead triggered a new storm of confusion in Krolik's head. "Ahem. You know, Andoris—everyone has their own way of receiving support, and not all find the act of "hugging" comforting. Not to mention there are those with malicious intent—" "Malicious intent?" asks Andoris as she slightly loosens her hold. I take the opportunity to catch some breath. "Whew... I was just worried that your system is defaulting to "hugging" as your way of offering support. I don't want you to do this to someone you're not familiar with just because they seem emotionally off. Doing so without first knowing what kind of person they are can be risky." "I do know the difference between strangers and close acquaintances, Commander. Things like this are reserved for those who are close to me." "But... you're right. Maybe not everyone finds hugs comforting..." Her hand rests gently on my shoulder. She tilts her head, looking a little lost for a second, then smiles. "But—YOU do feel comforted when I hug you, don't you, Commander? That's all that matters." Her arms tighten around me, and this time, she doesn't appear to have any intention of letting go anytime soon.“指挥官，你找我？” 看到安朵丝走进了指挥室在我面前站定，我停下手头的活，脑海中又快速地过了一遍措辞。 “是这样的，安朵丝，你的包容力很高，也很善解人意，能在大家状态不好的时候给予积极的鼓励，我非常欣赏，也很喜欢你这一点。” “呵呵，能帮到大家我也很开心。我也一直希望工作之余，能帮指挥官多分担一些其他的事。” “不过……我想问一下，安朵丝经常会用拥抱来安慰人吗？” “这样吗？” 话音未落，我就觉得自己的后脑勺被轻柔地拢住，陷入一片柔软之中。 “……是的。” “我觉得拥抱是表达安慰和关心最有效的方式。”安朵丝的声音听起来无害而轻柔，“就像之前，克罗丽科小姐和纳美西丝小姐吵架的时候，我拥抱了克罗丽科小姐，从结果上来看，很有效地制止了争吵呢。” ……与其说是很有效地制止了争吵，不如说是在克罗丽科的心智中引发了新一轮的风暴。 “咳，听我说安朵丝，每个人需要的安慰方式是不同的，不是所有人都能从‘拥抱’这个举动中获得安慰，而且如果碰上一些不怀好意的人……” “不怀好意的人？”安朵丝略微松开了我一点。 我趁机喘了口气。 “呼…我是怕在你的心智中把‘拥抱’这个行为归类为安慰他人的首选方式，如果有些不熟悉的人在你面前状态不好的话，你也会做出这样的举动，在不知道对方是什么样的人的情况下，这样做可能会有风险。” “亲疏有别的常识，我还是有的，这样的举动我只会对熟悉的人做哦，指挥官。” “不过指挥官说的也对，也许不是所有人都能从‘拥抱’这个举动中获得安慰……” 安朵丝的手搭在我的肩膀上，歪过头有点茫然的样子，忽然又微笑了起来。 “但——指挥官是可以被拥抱安慰到的吧？这样就够啦。” 拥抱着我的力量，又加强了一些，并且暂时没有想要松开的迹象。

Record 7"Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen you get angry before, Andoris." Andoris, who's working on a puzzle, slowly pauses and turns to look at me. "Do you want to see me get angry, Commander?" "It's not that I want to. I'm just curious. Have you really never experienced anything that made you upset?" "Hmm..." She idles for a few seconds, seemingly digging through her memory. "I think... I've never experienced the emotion of anger. But, if you're curious as to what it looks like, I can try to imitate it, Commander." "Wait... You can imitate that?" "Hehe, Dolls were meant to be imitations of humanity after all." "So... shall I begin?" Andoris closes her eyes for a brief moment, and by the time she reopens them, an expression I've never seen before takes over her face. "COMMANDER! Just who was staying with you in the ops room last night?!" Her expression darkens as she steps forward, looming towards me until I instinctively lean back into my chair. "Uh... it was—" "Didn't you say that I was all you need? Why did you break our promise?! Why go back on your word?! Answer me!" "Because the shift schedule was—" "I don't want ANY excuses! I. Want. You. To. Explain. Yourself. RIGHT, NOW!" At this point, she looks like she's about to come and grab me by the collar. "Okay, that's enough. Stop—stop, Andoris!" At my command, she closes her eyes again and takes a deep breath. By the time she reopens them, she's back to her gentle, familiar self. "...Andoris, don't tell me you were using that opportunity to—" "Opportunity to?" Andoris tilts her head, wearing a sweet and innocent expression. "Never mind... that was a very convincing performance... Who were you imitating?" "Hehe, just some scattered fragments of neural data. Nothing to worry about, Commander."“话说，好像从来没看见过安朵丝生气。” 正在拼拼图的安朵丝缓慢地停下了手中的动作，转过头看着我。 “指挥官，很想看我生气吗？” “与其说是想看，不如说是好奇吧。安朵丝没遇到过让你感到生气的事吗？” “嗯……” 她又放空了几秒，似乎在检索自己的记忆。 “愤怒的情绪，好像确实没有过，不过如果指挥官好奇的话，我可以给你模仿一下看看哦。” “这……还能模仿的吗？” “呵呵，人形本身就是从模仿人类开始的呀。” “那，我要开始咯？” 安朵丝闭了闭眼，在再睁开眼睛的时候，换上了一副我从来没有见到过的表情。 “指挥官，昨晚一直在指挥室陪着你的，是谁！？” 她面色阴沉地上前一步，压得我被迫仰躺在椅子上。 “呃，是……” “不是说好指挥官有我就够了吗？为什么不遵守承诺，为什么食言，你说啊！” “因为排班表……” “我不接受任何借口！我、要、你、现在、就给我解释清楚！” 此时的安朵丝看上去马上就要过来揪我的领子了。 “停、停安朵丝！” 听到指令的安朵丝闭上了眼睛，深吸一口气。 再睁开时，又变回了那个熟悉而亲切的安朵丝。 “……安朵丝，你确定你没有趁机……” “趁机？” 安朵丝歪过脑袋，表情纯良而天真。 “算了，没什么……你的模仿还挺真实的……模仿的谁啊？” “呵呵，只是一些零星的心智片段而已，指挥官不用在意哦。”

Record 8One day, I run into Andoris in the lounge while she's working on some handicrafts. "You're still up at this hour, Andoris...? Huh? What's that?" She holds up a green dinosaur plushie to show me. "It's Mr. Pizza, Vepley's little dino. She said it had been ripped and the threads were torn open. I wanted to see if I could patch it back up." I watch her sew in silence for a while before commenting: "Sometimes, I feel like you're taking care of everyone like an older sister." "Me...? An older sister? Hmm... I don't really think so." She continues with a calm tone while sewing the plushie. "If anything, I feel like I'm the one being looked after. This is just my way of giving back to everyone." "Why would you think so?" Perhaps to avoid a crash, she stops sewing and turns towards me with full attention as she answers. "With how my performance issues routinely impact both my work and life, even if no one has the heart to say it, I know I can be a burden at times. So, I try to make up for it in other ways whenever I can." "You say I take care of others like an older sister... but to me, I'm just really grateful, grateful that I've been given the chance to take care of everyone. Especially you, Commander." "Especially me?" "Yes. Because I know you don't really need these things taken care of for you. You're plenty capable of accomplishing most things on your own. In fact, I know it's probably more convenient for you to just do them yourself. Yet, you intentionally left them for me, just to make me feel more at ease, to help me feel useful, and to let me know it's okay if I mess up." "In the past, I've always been afraid that if I didn't do something well enough, I'd be cast aside. And that was usually what happened." "But here at your side, Commander, I feel like I'm needed. Not just because I can achieve these things... but because you've entrusted me with them; that feeling of intention is what matters the most for me." "I think... this might be the feeling of belonging I've been searching for all along."某天在休息区，我遇到了正在做着手工的安朵丝。 “这么晚了，安朵丝还没休息啊……嗯？这个是……” 安朵丝向我展示了一下手中的绿色小恐龙玩偶。 “是维普蕾的披萨先生哦，之前她说被刮破开线了，我想尝试一下看能不能缝合起来。” 我看着安朵丝缝了一会儿，发出了感叹。 “有时候觉得，安朵丝像姐姐一样照顾着大家。” “姐姐……我吗？嗯……我不这么觉得哦。” 安朵丝一边缝着小恐龙，一边慢慢地说着。 “我反而觉得自己才是被照顾的那一个哦，这些只是我在做一些力所能及的回报而已。 ” “为什么会这么想？” 或许是怕宕机，安朵丝停下了手上的针线活，认真回答起我的问题。 “我的性能缺陷，对生活和工作影响都很大，虽然大家都不说，我知道有的时候还是挺麻烦的，所以希望尽可能在其他方面能够弥补一些。” “指挥官说我像姐姐一样照顾大家，其实我觉得，我很感谢指挥官和大家，给我机会能去照顾你们，特别是指挥官。” “特别是……我？” “因为我知道，指挥官向来不缺这些，而且很多事情都能自己做到，有时候一些事情自己做反而会更方便，但为了照顾我的心情，让我能够更自如地在此处安身，指挥官有时候会故意将一些事情交给我做呢，就算做不好也没有关系。” “从前我一直害怕，自己哪里做不好，就会被抛弃，事实也一直如此。” “但在指挥官这里，我能感觉到自己是被需要的，不仅仅是因为能够做这些事，而是把这些事交给我的、背后的心意。” “我想，这就是我一直以来在寻找的，归宿的感觉吧。”
