Pixelated Feelings 1 像素心事1

(—Beep.)（——嘀嘀。）

(For some inexplicable reason, my heart sinks the moment my terminal rings.)（通讯终端传来响声的那一刻，我莫名有了一种不太好的预感。）

CommanderDon't tell me...应该不会吧……

(I open the terminal, but a text filled with foreboding does not greet my eyes.)（我打开通讯终端，上面并没有出现什么我不想看到的文字。）

(—Soppo is used to sending voice messages so I typically convert her audio to text without much thought.)（——因为索普比较习惯发送语音讯息。我没有多加思索，直接将语音转为了文字。）

SoppoAh—! Commander! My Berserk Unicorn Charger Type III evolved! Help me catch it if you see it!啊——！指挥官！！我的冲刺Ⅲ型狂暴独角兽进化了，如果你看到了就帮我抓到它哦！！

(...)（……）

(Leaving aside exactly what a Berserk Unicorn is, it doesn't sound like good news.)（先不说这个狂暴独角兽是什么东西，但这看上去确实不像什么好消息。）

(Today was one of those rare days when I'm not being slammed with work, so I decided to go have a chat with Robella and Soppo. It has been a long time since we last had the opportunity.)（今天难得工作不忙，我也久违地有时间来找索普和洛贝拉聊聊。）

(But now, it seems like I might have to rethink my plans.)（而现在，我可能要重新考虑一下我的计划了。）

CommanderShould I go help Soppo first?不然先去帮索普的忙？

(As I ponder this question, I hear a series of hurried footsteps approaching rapidly, accompanied by the crisp sound of parts clanking and metal screeching on the metal floorboards. Just then, a familiar voice calls out to me.)（我正思索着，一阵沉重的跑步声，由远及近地传来，伴随着清脆的零件撞击声与金属摩擦地板的声音，与此同时，一个熟悉的女声喊住了我。）

RobellaCommander!! Catch it!!指挥官！！抓住它！！

(I turn to look at the source of the voice. A headless mini-robot is speedily scuttling sideways down the corridor, like a crab.)（我看向声音传来的方向，一个没有头的小机器人，正在像只螃蟹一样横着在走廊上狂奔。）

(Behind it is Robella, hot on its mechanical heels with her megaphone in hand.)（而它的后面，拿着喇叭正在对它穷追不舍的洛贝拉。）

RobellaBerserk Unicorn Charger Type III!! Hold it right there!!冲刺Ⅲ型狂暴独角兽！！立刻停下来！！

Commander...……

CommanderIsn't that the thing Soppo was talking about?那不就是索普说的那个？！

(As the mini-robot reaches me, I stick my foot out at the right time to trip it, and then I grab it by the leg.)（在小机器人来到我身前时，我找准时机，绊倒了它，然后伸手抓住了它的腿。）

RobellaCommander, look out!指挥官小心！

(Immediately after that, the mini-robot promptly jettisons its legs and continues rolling forward, slightly slower than before.)（下一刻，小机器人的上半身便主动舍弃了自己的腿部，以稍慢于刚才奔跑的速度，继续向前滚动。）

RobellaLooks like I'll have to—看来只能——

(Robella crouches down, then springs through the air, leaping in front of the mini-robot and blocking its path.)（洛贝拉半身下沉，用力起跳，一跃跳到了小机器人的前面，堵住了它的去路。）

(I instantly realize Robella's plan and get myself into position behind the mini-robot.)（我瞬间领会了洛贝拉的意图，在小机器人的后方同样做好了备战准备。）

(With nowhere else to run, the mini-robot flees into the room to my left.)（无处可逃的机器人，就这样钻进了左边的房间内。）

(After steadily corralling it, we manage to jointly subdue the mini-robot.)（通过一些围堵战术，我们最终合力制服了小机器人。）

(When I look up, I find that the surroundings are very familiar.)（当我抬起头时，才发现这个房间十分眼熟。）

Commander—So we chased it into your room.——原来是洛贝拉的房间啊。

RobellaWell, we couldn't let it keep running around unchecked, and it would have been bad if it had hurt you by accident.毕竟不能让它继续暴走下去，而且，如果误伤了指挥官就不好了。

RobellaTherefore, herding it into my room and subduing it there was the best course of action.所以，把它逼进我的房间制服，是最好的办法。

CommanderThat said, your room's a mess now.不过洛贝拉的房间倒是都被弄得乱七八糟了。

RobellaNo biggie, I don't mind tidying up my room.没关系，我并不讨厌收拾房间。

RobellaAnd besides, things like these have happened more than once when going on missions with Soppo.而且，和索普一起执行任务时，类似的事情也不是第一次发生了。

RobellaSo this is nothing worth worrying about, Commander.所以，指挥官不必担心。

(Just as she finishes speaking, Robella notices that I've started clearing away the junk on the ground.)（话音刚落，洛贝拉就注意到我已经整理起了散落在地上的杂物。）

RobellaAh, of course, I'm very happy to have you help me out. Still, are you really not busy right now, Commander?啊，当然，指挥官愿意帮忙，我也很开心。不过，指挥官真的不忙吗？

CommanderIt's fine. I was actually planning to look you up today.没关系的，我今天原本就打算来找你的。

RobellaW-what?什……什么？

(A look of surprise appears on Robella's hitherto-calm face.)（洛贝拉向来镇定的脸上，露出了一丝惊讶的表情。）

CommanderI say, you're still the same Robella as always.我是说，洛贝拉还是熟悉的样子。

(I don't answer Robella's question, only handing the organized collection of toku series tapes to her.)（我没有回答她的疑惑，只是将手中整理好的特摄剧录像带交给洛贝拉。）

RobellaAh... um, yeah, my preferences definitely haven't changed, yes.啊……嗯，爱好上的话，确实没什么变化呢。

CommanderI'm glad I can see the Robella I know so well even after we've been separated for so long.明明分别了那么久，却还能看到熟悉的洛贝拉，我很高兴。

RobellaYou too, Commander. You haven't changed much.指挥官也是，没什么变化。

CommanderHow so, may I ask?你说哪方面？

RobellaLike, say, when you helped capture the Berserk Unicorn Charger Type III just now?比如刚才帮忙抓冲刺Ⅲ型狂暴独角兽这方面？

(I can't help but wonder exactly what kind of mental image they have of me.)（我不由得开始怀疑起自己在她们眼里的形象了。）

CommanderShould I take that as a form of praise?我应该把这理解为夸奖吗？

RobellaEh? No, I wasn't making fun of you.诶？不，我没有调侃您的意思。

RobellaI just wanted to say... I'm very happy to see someone familiar like you again.我是想说……见到熟悉的您很高兴。

RobellaThat, and the fact that you allowed us to stay here and have our own rooms aboard the Elmo.而且您允许了我们留在这里，还让我们在艾莫号上拥有了自己的房间。

CommanderAre things going well at NOMFA?非军事管理局那边没问题吗？

RobellaActually, Director Kryuger has quietly allowed us to be stationed on the Elmo due to the current circumstances.其实，由于现在的情势，克鲁格局长已经默许了我们在艾莫号上暂驻。

(Robella pauses, then looks at me.)（洛贝拉停顿了一下，看向我。）

(I don't say anything, only smile and encourage her to continue.)（我没说什么，只是对她笑了笑，鼓励她说下去。）

RobellaSo you need not worry.所以，您可以放心。

RobellaHowever, we're still under NOMFA, at least on paper, so we'll need to head out to complete certain missions from time to time.只是，名义上我们还是归属于非军事管理局，偶尔需要去执行一些特别指派的任务。

(Robella's voice is as calm as ever, but I can hear undercurrents of uneasiness in it.)（洛贝拉的声音一如既往地冷静，但我却从中听出了些许不安。）

CommanderI understand.我明白。

(Robella and I clean up her room as we chat. Before we know it, the junk-strewn room has steadily cleared up.)（一边和洛贝拉闲聊，我们一边整理着房间，不知不觉中，刚才还杂物遍地的房间，逐渐变得整洁。）

CommanderWhat's this?这是什么？

(A carefully preserved picture frame suddenly catches my eye.)（突然，一个被精心保存好的相框吸引了我的目光。）

(While the room is still a little messy due to the prior chaos, the absolutely spotless frame is a clear sign that Robella deeply cherishes it.)（尽管房间里因为刚才的事有些乱，但这个相框的一尘不染与显眼的摆放位置，足以证明洛贝拉十分珍惜它。）

(I pick up the picture frame, and faces both familiar and foreign come into view—)（我拿起相框，熟悉而又陌生的人影倏地映入了我的眼帘——）

CommanderM4...M4……

(This is a group picture I've never seen before.)（那是一张我从未见过的合照。）

(Robella, Soppo, ST AR-15, M16A1, and M4A1 are there, all dressed up from their AR Team days, huddled close together, with smiles on their faces that I haven't seen in a long time.)（洛贝拉、索普、AR15、M16A1、M4A1，大家都穿着AR小队时期的装扮，正亲密地靠在一起，脸上是我许久都未曾见过的笑容。）

CommanderThis picture...这张照片是……？

CommanderYou took one together?你们还拍过合照？

(I'm quite surprised by this. To my knowledge, they've never had a chance to take a photograph together.)（我有些意外，印象中，她们似乎没有一起合照的机会。）

(Robella hesitates for a moment. She seems a little torn over how to answer or explain this spectacle.)（洛贝拉却犹豫了一下，看上去有些犯难，她似乎不知道该如何解释这件事。）

(In the end, she simply shakes her head.)（最后，她只是摇了摇头。）

RobellaNo, it's not... it isn't a picture we took together. It's... a gift from M4.不……它不是，我们过去拍下的合照。它是……M4送给我的礼物。

(I study the picture again, not quite sure what to make of it.)（我又仔细审视了一下照片，感到有些不解。）

CommanderA gift? So you've made contact with one another after that incident?礼物？难道你们在那之后有所接触吗？

Robella...Soppo and I have been searching for M4 all this time.……我和索普确实一直在寻找M4。

RobellaHowever, we can't initiate contact with M4, and we've never truly seen her either.可是，我们并不能主动联系到M4，也从未真正见到过M4。

RobellaStill, we can't deny that M4 has always been with us.但是不可否认，M4始终和我们在一起。

RobellaThis photo is the proof of that. It's a precious gift from M4.而这张照片，就是证明，而且是M4送给我的珍贵礼物。

(The contradiction in her statement only confuses me more.)（前后矛盾的话只会让我更加困惑。）

(However, the answer feels almost within reach as I look at the picture in my hands.)（不过，当我看向手中这张相片时，却又觉得似乎答案已经呼之欲出。）

Communications TerminalBeep—嘀嘀——

(Just as I'm about to inquire further, an untimely ringtone interrupts my train of thought. After checking my terminal, I find that it's not coming from mine.)（正当我打算继续追问时，一阵不合时宜的提示音打断了我的思绪。检查通讯终端后，我却发现这提示音并非来源于我。）

RobellaKalina?格琳娜？

(Robella picks up quickly.)（洛贝拉迅速接通了通讯。）

KalinaIs this a good time?现在方便通讯吗？

RobellaYes, I'm with the Commander.嗯，我和指挥官在一起。

Kalina...Alright.……好。

RobellaWant to say something to him?你们想说两句吗？

(Robella looks away from the terminal at me.)（洛贝拉的目光从通讯终端中移开，看向了我。）

Kalina...It's okay, I just wanted to have a quick word with you.……没关系，就两句话。

KalinaWe've got an urgent mission here. I need to borrow you and Soppo to help out.这边有个紧急任务，需要临时借调你和索普进行协助。

(Robella looks at me again and gives me a questioning look.)（洛贝拉再次看向我，露出向我询问的神色。）

(After seeing me nod, she replies to Kalina on the other side of the line.)（见我点了点头，她回复了通讯另一端的格琳娜。）

RobellaNo problem. Leave it to us.没问题，交给我们吧。

KalinaI'll send you the location and the mission info. Make sure you check it.我把集合地点和任务情报发到你的终端上，记得检查。

(After that, Kalina hangs up.)（说完，格琳娜便切断了通讯。）

CommanderGo on, then. Go prepare for the mission.去吧，先去准备任务。

RobellaSorry about that, Commander.抱歉，指挥官。

CommanderIt's not like you can quickly explain it anyway, I understand.本来也不是什么一时半会就能说清楚的事情，我明白的。

CommanderBut you'll tell me everything when you get back, right?任务回来，你会告诉我一切的，对吧？

(Robella appears to relax a little.)（洛贝拉看上去放松了一些。）

RobellaYes. I promise. I'll tell you everything when I get back.嗯，我保证，等任务结束后，我就说清楚一切。

(I put the picture frame back in its original position and pat Robella on the shoulder, hoping that she can relax a little. After all, going into a mission with something weighing on her mind isn't a good thing.)（我将手中的相框放回原位，拍了拍洛贝拉的肩膀，希望她可以更放松些，毕竟，带着心事去执行任务可不是什么好事。）

CommanderSally forth, with the wind in your sails.走吧，一路顺风。

Pixelated Feelings 2 像素心事2

(Now that the day's work is over, I'm about to head over to the lounge for a cuppa. However, right as I exit the ops room, I run into a Doll I haven't seen in several days.)（今天的工作刚告一段落，就在我打算去休息区喝一小杯时，却在指挥室门口，撞到了一名数天不见的人形。）

RobellaCommander? Are you done with the day's work?指挥官？今天的工作已经完成了吗？

CommanderWhy are you asking that too...怎么连你也这么问……

(After all, several workaholic Dolls had just badgered me with that question, so there was no way I could give any kind of positive response to it.)（毕竟刚被数个热爱工作的人形催促过这个问题，我对这样的问候实在无法提供什么正向的反馈。）

RobellaAh, no, it just came to mind because I saw that you were about to leave the ops room...啊，不，我只是看到您正打算离开指挥室，所以才想到的……

CommanderThink of this as an intermission of sorts. What about you? Just finished a mission on your end?中场休息一下。你呢？刚结束那边的任务？

RobellaYes, so I wanted to report to you.是的，所以想先向您进行汇报。

CommanderWhere's Soppo?怎么没见索普过来？

Robella...She's still in the repair bay, but Mayling said it won't take much longer.……索普还在检修，不过，美玲说待会就可以完成。

RobellaShe said she'd come find you on her own, so she'll probably track you down afterwards.她一定要自己来找指挥官，所以，她稍后就会来和您说她的见闻了吧。

(It sounds like just another ordinary mission, but for some reason, Robella seems really tied up in knots about something.)（听上去只是一次普通的任务，但不知道是不是我的错觉，洛贝拉看上去像是在纠结什么似的。）

CommanderDid Soppo cause trouble again?是索普闯什么祸了吗？

(I attempt to probe Robella, and sure enough, I see her composure wavering.)（我试探着问了一下，果然，洛贝拉的神情出现了些许动摇。）

CommanderLook, I'm going to sit down for a drink. Want to join me for a cup of coffee in the lounge?我刚好要休息一下，要不要去休息区喝一杯？

RobellaNo, it's okay!不用了！

RobellaSoppo was a good girl this time round... I was the one who endangered her again...索普这次很老实，是我，我险些……又让她独自承担了风险。

CommanderWait... "again"?“又”？

RobellaEr, no... it's nothing!呃，不……没什么！

(My instincts tell me that perhaps this is related to that picture from earlier.)（我直觉地感到，这件事，或许和那张相片有所关联。）

(As the thought crosses my mind, my urge to get a drink fades away.)（想到这里，我也没什么心情再去喝点什么了。）

CommanderHave a seat, Robella. Let's talk.坐下聊吧，洛贝拉。

(I sit down on the ops room sofa first, and Robella takes a seat opposite me.)（我率先坐到了指挥室的沙发上，洛贝拉也随之坐到了我的对面。）

RobellaStill... don't you think bringing this up now is a little sudden?不过……突然说这个会不会有些太突兀了？

CommanderDoes this have anything to do with that picture?这和那张相片有关吧？

RobellaUm... To some extent, yes.嗯……一定程度上来说，是的。

CommanderThen there's no problem. After all, we promised to discuss everything after you came back.那就没关系，毕竟我们约好了的，等你回来后，要把一切都说清楚。

(Robella thinks. Then she takes a deep breath and speaks.)（洛贝拉稍加思考，深吸一口气后，郑重地开口。）

RobellaThere's a special region in my neural cloud that probably isn't a common thing for normal Dolls.我的心智中，有一处特别的空间，我想，这对于一般的人形来说应该并不常见。

RobellaIt was originally blank, but now I've placed a lot of things in there.那里原本是一片空白的，但现在，它已经被我存放的东西丰富了不少。

RobellaAnd... I asked Persica to install a projector plugin for it. If you're interested, I can show it to you next time, Commander.而且……我请帕斯卡为这个空间添加了投影插件，指挥官如果感兴趣的话，下次我可以给指挥官展示一下。

CommanderI'd like to see it now.我现在就想看。

(My interest instantly maxes out.)（我立刻表达了高度的兴趣。）

RobellaEh? Now... I... my heart's not ready for that yet...诶？现在……我、我还没准备好。

CommanderWhat a shame. So, what did you put in there?真遗憾，那你在里面都存放了些什么？

RobellaI have a habit of storing data that moves me there in a concrete form.我习惯性地会把触动到我的信息片段，以具象化的形式存放在里面。

RobellaInitially, I was hoping to use that to help me get closer to the human mindset.最初，我只是希望这样能够让我离人类的思维更近一些。

RobellaBut as more data accumulated there, it began to severely affect my judgment.但是随着里面的数据越来越多，这个空间，逐渐开始严重影响我的判断。

CommanderYou might not be used to it, but that's definitely brought you closer to the human mode of thinking.或许你不习惯，但这的确让你更接近人类的思维模式了。

RobellaAre humans so easily changed?难道人类也这么容易就改变吗？

(Robella shakes her head. This seems to be bothering her.)（洛贝拉摇了摇头，她的表情看上去有些懊恼。）

RobellaAt first, the things I put in there were all related to the AR Team, but after I encountered more humans, the data in there became more and more complex.最初，这里存放的东西，都是有关AR小队的，但随着我接触到了更多的人类，这里的信息变得越来越复杂了。

RobellaAs a result, I—who had always placed my friends and finding M4 as my top priority—made a mistake for the first time.以至于原本永远把伙伴、把寻找M4放在第一优先级的我，第一次，判断失误了。

(She falls silent.)（她沉默了一下。）

RobellaI didn't go with her.我失约了。

(Lost in her memories, Robella droops her head.)（沉浸在回忆中的洛贝拉轻轻垂下了头。）

(After going silent for a while, she seems to have recovered enough to continue speaking.)（沉默了一阵，似乎终于平复了心情，她才再次开始讲述。）

RobellaBack then, Soppo and I were obsessed with finding M4.那时，我和索普还在执着地寻找M4。

RobellaAfter going through a lot of hardship, we found our one and only clue—我们历经困难，才找到了唯一的一条线索——

RobellaWe picked up M4's signal, and despite how weak it was, Soppo wanted us to go after it.我们监测到了M4的信号，尽管那很微弱，索普仍旧希望我们能一同前往追查。

RobellaBut... but because of various reasons... I... I didn't go with her.但是……因为一些原因，我……我失约了。

(Robella pauses again. Her brows furrow in agony as she tries to get her emotions under control.)（洛贝拉停顿了一下，眉毛痛苦地拧了起来，似乎在努力平稳自己的情绪。）

RobellaSoppo got tired of waiting for me and went after the signal by herself.最后，没有等到我的索普单独去追踪了那个信号。

RobellaAs I thought, all we found was a shoulder-mounted signal transmitter. Soppo didn't want to abandon it since it was related to M4, and so she took the risk of installing it on her frame.而和我猜测的一样，她果然找了一只肩载式信号发射器，因为事关M4，索普不想放过这个线索，就冒险将这东西装在了自己的素体上。

RobellaThat was when the nightmare started—然后，噩梦就开始了——

RobellaAnd I mean that literally.字面意思的。

CommanderDid it have an effect on Soppo?这东西影响了索普？

(Robella nods.)（洛贝拉点了点头。）

RobellaAfter that, Soppo's neural cloud began developing abnormalities. She was haunted by strange dreams at all hours of the day and night, and she couldn't escape them.从那以后，索普的心智就陷入了异常，她被奇异的“梦境”所纠缠，日日夜夜都不能摆脱。

RobellaHer neural cloud activity was still high even when she was sleeping, and I could hear her talking to the people in her dreams.休眠时，她的心智仍旧在高频率活动着，我能听到她在和“梦境”中的人对话……

RobellaEveryone in the AR Team was in those dreams... M4, M16, ST AR-15, and me...M4，M16，还有我和AR-15……似乎在那个“梦境”中，AR小队的大家都还在。

RobellaAnd the dreams didn't end when she woke up. She lived while seeing all those things we couldn't.而在醒来后，“梦境”也并不会消失，她始终看着我们所无法看到的东西而生活着。

RobellaAs for me, despite being outside of those dreams, I could meld into those dreamscapes and even speak normally with her.而我作为梦境之外的人，却能够融入她的梦境，甚至于和她“正常”对话。

CommanderThat sounds just like...这简直就像是……

RobellaYes, it's exactly like what you're thinking, Commander. During that time, Soppo couldn't tell her dreams from reality...没错，就是你想的那样，指挥官，那段时间，索普她已经分不清梦境和现实了……

RobellaAnd that was all because of me... It was all my fault.这都是因为我……都是我的错。

(Robella's voice trembles, and I can see her hands balling up into fists.)（洛贝拉的声音有些颤抖，我清晰地看到，洛贝拉握紧了拳头。）

CommanderDon't say that.别这么说。

RobellaIf I had gone along with her that day... she wouldn't have ended up like that.如果不是因为我那天没有去……她就不会变成这样。

RobellaWhy didn't I go with her that day? I don't understand, I don't know what happened to me...为什么我那天没有去呢？我不明白，我不知道这究竟是怎么了……

RobellaI was still thinking about M4; I never once gave up on looking for M4, and I was still filled with my sense of responsibility as the AR Team's leader.明明我仍旧在意M4，明明我从未产生过放弃寻找M4的念头，明明我对AR小队的责任感也从未消减过分毫。

RobellaI thought that I'd be the same as always, denying the results of a rational calculation to continue the search for my friends.我本以为我会和过去一样，会毫不犹豫地否定理性的运算结果，继续去寻找伙伴。

RobellaBut now... I can't stop myself from abiding by rational decisions. It's like I've backslid.而现在……我却无法抑制地遵循着那个理性的决策，简直就像是退化了一样。

(Robella rises from where she's sitting and takes a couple of steps back before turning away from me.)（洛贝拉从我对面的沙发上站起身来，向后走了两步，背对着我站着。）

(Perhaps she just doesn't want me to see the change in her expression, but no matter how hard she tries to control it, the slight shifts in her trembling voice betray her internal guilt and regret.)（或许她只是不想被我发现她的表情变化，但即便她的声音冷静而克制，略显颤动的声音，还是藏不住满心的懊悔和歉疚。）

RobellaIt was my fault.是我的错。

RobellaAfter that, I wanted to delete that neural space countless times...从那之后，我无数次想要删除这个特别的心智空间……

(Seeing her back makes my heart ache a little.)（看着她的背影，我有些于心不忍。）

CommanderRobella, you said that region was meant to make you more human.洛贝拉，你说过，这个空间最初是为了让你更加接近人类的。

(I stand up as well and walk over to Robella before lightly patting her head.)（我同样站起身，缓步走到洛贝拉的身后，轻轻抚摸着她的头发。）

Robella...……

(Her body trembles in response to that action.)（而她也因为这个动作而紧张地轻颤了一下。）

(A warm softness fills my palm. My guess is that thinking about all those things just now has caused her frame temperature to rise.)（一种柔软的触感，伴随着温暖的体温传到我的掌心，我想她刚才一定想了很多事情，以至于素体的温度都有了轻微的升高。）

CommanderAnd now, you know that becoming more like a human being means you have more human flaws.所以，现在你知道了，越接近人类，也会让你拥有更多人类所具有的缺点。

RobellaI—I'm sorry, Commander... I got too worked up and misspoke... Please forget what I said...抱、抱歉……指挥官。是我……说得太激动了，请您忘记吧。

RobellaThis is all in the past for Soppo and me, so you don't have to... I'll be fine...这件事，对于我和索普已经过去了，所以，您不用这样……我没关系的……

(However, Robella's tone tells me that she is anything but fine.)（但是洛贝拉的语气中，我却感觉到了和她口中所说的完全相反的情绪。）

CommanderI understand what you're trying to say. Not a moment has gone by over the past ten years when I haven't worried about all of you.我明白，这十年来，我没有一刻不在担心你们。

(I take another step forward, going around and past Robella until I am standing in front of her.)（我向前跨了一步，越过洛贝拉身侧，站到她的面前。）

(She lowers her head. Her bangs obscure her face and her expression.)（她低着头，垂下的头发挡住了她的脸，让我看不清她的表情。）

CommanderAt the very least, you're not fighting solo anymore. If you need anything, go ahead and ask me.至少，现在的你们并非单独作战了，有任何需要，你们尽管提。

CommanderAlso, Robella, I understand how you feel right now. So you can place your complete faith in me. There is no need to hide anything—还有，洛贝拉，我理解你的心情，所以，你完全可以依赖我，并不需要把什么都藏起来——

CommanderLike so.就像现在这样。

(I gently brush her bangs aside in the hopes of seeing her face.)（我轻轻将她鬓发别到耳后，希望能够看到她的表情。）

Robella...……

RobellaC-Commander! D-don't look at me like that!指，指挥官！不不不用这样看着我的！！

(However, Robella seems even more flustered after raising her head.)（但抬起头后，洛贝拉却更加慌乱了。）

CommanderSee, your face says it all.看吧，你的表情可是什么都说了。

CommanderI know you've done a lot for the AR Team, and you've even placed yourself in harm's way to protect your friends. And for that, you've earned everyone's support and understanding.我知道你为了AR小队已经付出了很多，甚至于为了维护重要的伙伴，甘愿舍弃自我，好在，你的确得到了大家的支持和理解。

CommanderStill, I'm hoping that from now on, you can be a little more selfish... At least, when you're in front of me.但我还是希望你从今往后……至少在我面前，你可以稍微“自私”一些。

CommanderI hope that you'll put your feelings first, and take better care of yourself.以自己的感受为主，照顾好自己。

RobellaCommander...指挥官……

(Robella looks at me, and she doesn't say anything for several seconds. Finally, she smiles for the first time I've seen all day.)（洛贝拉看着我，沉默了数秒，终于，露出了今天第一个笑容。）

(It's much more relaxed than before, like a weight's been lifted off her shoulders.)（仿佛重担被卸下一样，她的笑容变得轻松了不少。）

(Although I didn't manage to ask about the picture, I don't want to drag Robella back into the quagmire of emotions after finally getting her to smile again.)（虽然话题还没有进展到那张照片，但今天，我实在不愿让好不容易露出笑容的洛贝拉再次被拖入情绪的泥沼。）

(Let's just leave things at this for today.)（就到这里为止吧。）

RobellaI'm very happy to hear you say that, Commander.我很开心，能听到指挥官这么说。

RobellaIn that case... will you continue to listen to me talk about these things in the future?那……今后，指挥官还愿意再听我说这些吗？

CommanderAnytime.随时欢迎。

CommanderIn that case, when can you show me the stuff you've stored in that neural space of yours?那么，什么时候可以给我展示一下，那个空间里所存放的东西？

RobellaOf course, anytime is—当然也是随时——

Robella...……

(I don't know what Robella saw, but she freezes just as she was getting all excited about showing me the contents of that neural space.)（不知道洛贝拉看到了什么，在她正要跃跃欲试地为我展示那个小空间时，突然停住了。）

CommanderWhat's wrong?怎么了？

RobellaAh, um, I think there's been a malfunction today, and there's a problem with the projection...啊，嗯，今天好像有些故障，投影有些问题……

RobellaSo, uh, next time... We'll have to leave the projection stuff for next time!下次，呃，展示的事情看来只能等到下次了！

CommanderI'll be looking forward to it.好吧，我会一直期待的。

(Soppo is gawking all around her at the busy flea market. She seems to be looking for something interesting.)（热闹的市集上，索普正在机敏地四处张望着，似乎在寻找着有趣的东西。）

SoppoWow! That looks neat!哇！那个，看上去好有趣啊！！

(With that, Soppo scampers off into the crowd, leaving Robella and me behind.)（说完，索普一溜烟就钻进了人群，只剩下我和洛贝拉还站在原地。）

(We came across a flea market in a nearby settlement. Soppo happened to be free, and so she dragged me and Robella along to explore it together.)（这次难得在临近的居住点遇见了旧物市集，刚好有空闲的索普，便硬拉着我和洛贝拉一起来闲逛。）

(However, Robella doesn't seem to be enjoying this outing as much as Soppo is.)（但与索普相比，洛贝拉就没那么享受这次的闲逛了。）

(After Soppo runs off, Robella looks even more uneasy than before.)（在索普跑开后，本就看上去有些局促的洛贝拉此时显得更加局促了。）

CommanderWhat's wrong? I don't think you've been to many places like this. Want to buy a souvenir?这个怎么样？难得来一次，买点东西作为纪念吧？

(I gesture with a flick of my chin to a stall selling movie merchandise. Sure enough, Robella's attention is drawn to the items on display, which greatly alleviates her awkwardness.)（我抬了抬下巴，指向一个售卖影视周边的摊位，果不其然，洛贝拉的注意立刻便被摊位上的商品吸引了，局促也被缓解了不少。）

Underground BrokerOh wow, you've got a good eye! These pendants are very popular!哎呀，好眼光，这对挂坠人气很高呢！

(As Robella picks up a pair of items from the stall, the underground broker who runs it immediately begins his spiel.)（随着洛贝拉拿起了摊位上的一对周边，作为摊主的暗商马上便开始了推销。）

Underground BrokerThis pair of pendants were made as a set, they're perfect for you and your friend to wear together!这两只吊坠是成对的，很适合和您身边的这位伙伴一起佩戴呢！

Underground BrokerThis is our last pair, and not to toot my own horn here, but it's the only one you'll find among all the surrounding stalls!这可是最后一对了，不是我吹，这附近的摊位，只有我这还有这么一对了！

(After noticing me standing beside Robella, the broker turns up the high-pressure sales tactics.)（注意到了洛贝拉身边的我，暗商推销得更加卖力了。）

(Robella hesitates and studies the paired pendants she's holding—)（洛贝拉却似乎有些犹豫，只是盯着手中的那组周边——）

(The pendants are shaped like two halves of a broken coin. With the halves fitting neatly together, the assembled coin clearly depicts an eagle.)（那是两只半面碎裂硬币的吊坠，两只吊坠刚好可以拼合在一起，拼好的硬币上，鹰的浮雕图案清晰可见。）

CommanderWhy not buy it if you like it?喜欢就买吧？

(Robella shakes her head and reluctantly moves to put the pendants back on the stall counter.)（洛贝拉却摇了摇头，有些不舍地想要将周边放回摊位上。）

CommanderWe'll take them, thanks.就这个了，谢谢。

(I reach out to stop Robella before whipping around to the broker and putting down the money for the pendants.)（我伸手拦住了洛贝拉，与此同时，快速转向暗商，买下了这份周边。）

Underground BrokerOne set of "Shattered Coin-nexion", sold! Thanks for your business!“裂痕硬币”一对！谢谢惠顾！

RobellaCommander—!指挥官——！

CommanderJust think of it as a gift to celebrate our reunion. I know it's a little late, but it's okay as long as you like it.就当是庆祝我们重逢的礼物吧，虽然来得或许晚了些，你能喜欢就好。

(I ignore the shocked look on Robella's face and stuff the pendants into her hands.)（我无视了洛贝拉有些惊讶的表情，将礼物强硬地塞进了她的手中。）

RobellaI... I like them a lot.……我，我很喜欢。

RobellaBut... the pendants actually have a special meaning...不过……这对周边其实有着特别的含义……

(Her voice trails off to the point where I'm having trouble making out what she's saying.)（她的声音越来越小，我几乎快要听不到她在说什么。）

CommanderOh? What meaning?哦？是什么样的含义？

RobellaErm... it's, er, it's kind of memorable. Would you like to watch the show with me, Commander?这个……总之，是很令人难忘的含义，指挥官下次和我一起看这部剧吧？

RobellaBut... the difference is, I won't let the not-so-good parts happen between us.不过……不同的是，不那么圆满的地方，我一定不会让它发生在我们之间的。

RobellaTherefore, I'll take your hand and never let go again, Commander.所以，我绝对会抓住指挥官的手，再也不会放开。

(Her voice is barely audible at the end, but the sincerity in it is beyond question.)（说到最后，她的声音细若蚊蝇，语气却无比认真。）

(Under the setting sun, the corners of her mouth curl up into a smile that she can't hide no matter what she does. The crimson light of sunset shines on her lustrous cheeks, highlighting the joy in her heart.)（夕阳下，她的嘴角带着无论如何克制都无法压平的弧度，一抹上扬的绯红，点缀在她闪耀着光泽的脸颊上，张扬地展示着她喜悦的心情。）

(Everything up till now has been worth it for this moment.)（这一刻让刚才的一切都变得值得。）

Commander...Ahem.……嗯。

RobellaHuh? Ah... a-ahem!诶，啊……咳咳。

RobellaIn any case, I'm very grateful, Commander!总之，我很感谢您，指挥官！

(After thanking me again, Robella and I continue exploring the flea market. She's much less reserved now and seems quite a bit more relaxed.)（洛贝拉再次感谢我之后，我们继续逛起了市集，现在，她终于没那么局促了，看上去轻松了不少。）

RobellaCommander, shall we look at this stall next?指挥官，接下来，要不要去这个摊位看看？

(Robella points to a stall for couple activities.)（洛贝拉伸手指向了一个双人合作的互动摊位。）

RobellaThere's a prize if you win, and it looks pretty good...就是，获胜之后的奖品，好像还挺不错的……

CommanderSure, if you'd like.好啊，你想要的话。

(It's not often that Robella takes the initiative to request something, so I agree without much thought.)（看着洛贝拉为数不多的主动邀约，我没多想便答应了。）

RobellaYup. So, would you like to...嗯。所以，指挥官要不要和我……

???Heeeeeyyyyy—!!哇——！！

(Suddenly, Robella is interrupted by a lively shout. Soppo emerges from the crowd, clutching a double armload of "trophies" as she runs up to Robella and me.)（突然，洛贝拉还未能说完的话被一声活泼的招呼声打断，人群中，索普抱着满怀的“战利品”挤到了我和洛贝拉的面前。）

SoppoWhoa! You two are acting really weird!诶！气氛好奇怪啊，你们两个！

RobellaW-what do you mean, "acting weird"?! What about you? Where did you go just now?哪，哪里奇怪了！倒是你，刚刚跑到哪里去了？

SoppoI was exploring the flea market! You guys were waaaay too slow! I already got tons of loot!就在市集里呀！是指挥官和洛贝拉逛得太慢啦，我已经拿到这么多奖品了哦！

SoppoIf only the rest of the AR Team were here too. Come look, there are five of these adapters here, just enough for all of us!要是AR小队其他的伙伴也在就好了呢，快看快看，这个转接器，有五只不一样的诶，刚好可以一起用！

(A hint of sadness flashes through Robella's eyes as she hears what Soppo said.)（听到索普的话，洛贝拉的眼神中出现了一丝失落。）

(However, she covers it up quickly enough and takes Soppo's spoils from her.)（但她很快地便将这份忧郁掩盖好，接过了索普手中的奖品。）

SoppoRobella, do you want the prize from this stall?洛贝拉想要这个摊位的奖品吗？

RobellaYup.嗯。

SoppoThen let me help you out.那就让我来帮你吧。

SoppoAll the games at these stalls are easy-peasy for me!这些摊位的游戏，对我来说，全部都很轻松哦！

RobellaHuh? Ah, but, but I wanted to...诶，啊，可是我想和……

(Robella directs a pleading look at me.)（洛贝拉看向我，眼神中透露出一丝求助。）

CommanderGo ahead.去吧。

(I nod and smile encouragingly at her.)（我点点头，冲她鼓励地笑了笑。）

SoppoSee! Even the Commander agrees! Let's gogogogo!连指挥官都这么说啦！我们快上吧！

SoppoHonestly, you're usually so decisive. Why are you dragging your feet so much today?真是的，平时不是很果断嘛，洛贝拉最近怎么总是啰里啰唆的。

(And so, Soppo pulls Robella over to the stall for couple activities, where an "intense" battle takes place. Despite a few thrills and scares along the way, they finally end up with the prize Robella wanted.)（就这样，索普拖着洛贝拉，在互动摊位上“激烈”地展开了挑战，尽管过程中有些“惊吓”，但好在，最终还是拿到了洛贝拉想要的奖品。）

SoppoCommander, come look! We got a full clear! Today's haul was a great success!指挥官，快看快看，大获全胜哦！！今天真是完全的大丰收呢！

(After redeeming the prizes she won, Soppo hops and skips over to me. There is a model Dinergate perched on her head, purchased from some unknown stall.)（兑换完奖品的索普，兴高采烈地跳到了我的面前，头上还顶着不知道从哪个摊位买来的兵蚁模型。）

(Soppo smugly shows off her loot, then runs off again. Then, she looks back and checks to see if Robella and I are following her.)（得意地向我展示了战利品后，索普便蹦蹦跳跳地再次向前跑去，她一边看着周围的摊位，一边转头留意着我和洛贝拉是否有跟上。）

(Meanwhile, Robella seems visibly more relaxed after Soppo's ruckus.)（而一旁的洛贝拉，在这样一番连吵带闹后，似乎也显得更加放松了一些。）

CommanderThis is good.太好了。

RobellaHm? Did you say something?诶？您说的是什么？

(After recalling the melancholy on Robella's face, I decide to be a little more indirect about my answer.)（想到刚刚洛贝拉忧郁的神色，我决定还是委婉一些。）

CommanderSoppo doesn't seem to be affected by that nightmare anymore.索普似乎已经不再受那场噩梦的影响了。

RobellaYeah... After all, the dreams that were bothering Soppo, as well as M4 and all of us from the dreams all vanished afterwards.嗯……毕竟，之前困扰着索普的那个梦境，还有梦境中的M4和大家，后来都消失了。

CommanderWhen did they disappear?是什么时候消失的？

RobellaWhen Soppo's condition was getting worse, Persica ran a full diagnostic on her.之前，随着索普的状况越来越严重，帕斯卡对索普进行了检修。

RobellaBut in truth... There's a limit to what a diagnostic can do, and the signal was still affecting Soppo even through the diagnostic, so Persica couldn't remove the transmitter either.但其实……检修所能做到的事情也是有限的，即便在检修时，那个信号仍旧在影响着索普，于是帕斯卡也没能拆除那个发射器。

RobellaIn the end, we had to reboot Soppo, and I had to help out in Level 2 as well.最终，我们不得不重启索普，甚至重启也需要我在二级平层进行协助才得以实现。

RobellaAfter that, though, Soppo awoke from that dream.但是，在重启后，索普突然从那个“梦境”中醒来了。

(Robella smiles thinly.)（洛贝拉露出了淡淡的笑容。）

RobellaI remember the first thing she did after waking up. She grabbed my hand tightly and said—我记得，刚醒来的她紧紧抓住了我的手，对我说——

RobellaLet's keep looking for M4 and M16 and make your dream come true, RO.“我们一边继续寻找M4和M16，一边，去实现RO的梦想吧。”

CommanderHm...嗯……

CommanderStill, from what you said, it seems like you didn't do anything to her, just rebooted her systems.不过，听上去你们什么都没做，只是重启了她就好了。

RobellaYes, but that was only on the surface.是的，但这只是表面。

RobellaWhen we did a post-startup diagnostic on her, we found that Soppo's base layer logic had been changed.因为，在之后检查时，帕斯卡意外地发现，索普的底层逻辑被改变了。

RobellaHer prime directives to follow and protect M4 were gone.追寻与保护M4这样不可违抗的指令，已经消失了。

CommanderSay what?什么？

CommanderHow could directives like that be erased?那个底层指令，居然可以被抹去？

RobellaSee, you think it's weird too, right? But that's what happened.您也觉得难以置信吧？但事实就是如此。

RobellaThat said, if it turns out that signal really was connected to M4, it would all make sense.但如果那个信标能够连接到M4的话，一切就说得通了。

CommanderSo you're saying—你的意思是说——

(I recall my conversation with Robella from earlier.)（我想起了之前与洛贝拉的对话。）

Robella...Soppo and I have been searching for M4 all this time.……我和索普确实一直在寻找M4。

RobellaHowever, we can't initiate contact with M4, and we've never truly seen her either.可是，我们并不能主动联系到M4，也从未真正见到过M4。

RobellaStill, we can't deny that M4 has always been with us.但是不可否认，M4始终和我们在一起。

RobellaThis photo is the proof of that. It's a precious gift from M4.而这张照片，就是证明，而且是M4送给我的珍贵礼物。

(The contradiction in her statement only confuses me more.)（前后矛盾的话只会让我更加困惑。）

(However, the answer feels almost within reach as I look at the picture in my hands.)（不过，当我看向手中这张相片时，却又觉得似乎答案已经呼之欲出。）

Commander...I get it now.……我明白了。

CommanderPerhaps it's like what you heard, and that signal was connected to M4 all along.或许，就像你们得知的传闻一样，那个信号真的与M4相关。

CommanderAnd the transmitter that Soppo put in herself was a kind of "medium" that was in contact with M4.而被索普装在了身上的发射器，正是与M4接触的“媒介”。

(M4 used this medium to ask Soppo a question without ever revealing herself, and Soppo's answer was—)（M4借助这个“媒介”，在完全不出现的情况下，向索普提出了问题，而索普的回答是——）

(She chose reality.)（她选择了现实。）

(And so, M4 removed Soppo's restrictions.)（因此，M4解除了对索普的限制。）

(In fact, that would also explain the other unexplainable thing—)（甚至，另一件说不通的事情也变得有迹可循了——）

(I think back on that picture, and then look straight at Robella.)（回想着那张相片，我凝视洛贝拉。）

CommanderM4 saw Soppo's choice, and freed her.M4看到了索普的选择，所以释放了她。

CommanderIn that case, what about you?既然如此，那你呢？

RobellaI'm no longer influenced by that matter either.我也已经不再受到那件事的影响了。

RobellaAt the very least, it's not negatively affecting me.至少，不是负面的影响。

CommanderDid you make contact with that medium when running the diagnostic on Soppo and rebooting her?在协助索普进行检修与重启时，你也接触到了那个“媒介”吧？

CommanderLet me be straightforward here—Does that picture have anything to do with this incident?我就直接问了，那张合照……究竟是不是和这件事有关？

Robella...Yes.……是。

RobellaThe full explanation is a little complex, but it looks like you've already guessed it, Commander.解释起来有些复杂，不过，看来指挥官已经猜到了。

RobellaWhile Soppo was undergoing her diagnostic, I was making plans to delete the things in that special neural space.在索普检修的那段时间，我一直都想删掉那个特殊的心智空间中的东西。

CommanderIs it because you thought they would affect your judgment?是因为你觉得它们影响了你的判断？

RobellaAfter seeing everything Soppo went through, I couldn't... I couldn't allow myself to keep it with a clear conscience.看着索普所经历的一切，我没办法……继续这样心安理得地留着那个特殊的空间。

RobellaAnd so, I decided to make a change and delete everything apart from stuff related to the AR Team.所以，我必须做出改变，我想删掉除了AR小队之外的一切。

CommanderDid it work?成功了吗？

(Robella shakes her head.)（洛贝拉摇了摇头。）

RobellaI tried deleting it many times, but none of them succeeded.我删除了很多次，没有一次成功。

RobellaAt first, I thought it was just a malfunction. After considering that I had made contact with that signal as well, I performed a self-diagnostic.起初，我只是以为这是故障，考虑到我也接触过那个信号，我便进行了自我检查。

RobellaThen, I discovered that picture in my neural cloud.然后，我就发现了那张照片，就这样摆在我的心智空间中。

(A picture that should not have existed, describing things that never happened.)（一张不该存在于世的照片，描绘着从未发生过的事情。）

(Robella, Soppo, ST AR-15, M16A1, and M4A1 are there, huddled up close together. The smiles on their faces seem a little distant and unfamiliar for them.)（洛贝拉、索普、AR-15、M16A1、M4A1，正亲密地靠在一起，脸上是对她们而言都有些久远和陌生的笑容。）

CommanderPerhaps, M4 didn't just set Soppo free, but she was trying to free you too.或许，M4不止是释放了索普，也想通过这种方式来释放你吧。

CommanderAfter all, looking back now, only M4 could do something like this.毕竟，现在看来，这件事也只有M4能做得到了。

RobellaThe thought did come to mind before, which was why I stayed with Soppo, bid ST AR-15 goodbye, and started helping NOMFA with their work.我不是没有这样想过，指挥官，所以我才会和索普一起，与AR-15分别，开始协助非军事管理局工作。

RobellaBut as I did this, I felt myself growing further and further away from M4...但与此同时，我却也感觉到与M4越来越远……

CommanderDon't think that way, Robella.不要这样想，洛贝拉。

(Robella looks so forlorn that I can't help reaching out to take her hand.)（洛贝拉的神情实在过于落寞，让我忍不住牵住了她的手。）

(However fleeting my reassurance might be, I still want to give her a shoulder to lean on when she's filled with a depression like what I'm seeing now.)（哪怕只是短暂的支撑，至少这一刻，她的心中升起这样寂寞的情绪时，我仍旧希望她能够有所依靠。）

CommanderYou're still looking for your friends from the AR Team, even without a command binding you, isn't that right?即便没有指令的约束，你们仍旧想要找到AR小队的伙伴，不是吗？

RobellaOf course! M4 is still our precious friend, whether or not she lifted the restrictions on us.这是当然！无论M4是否解除了我们的限制，她都是我们重要的伙伴。

CommanderThat's because the feelings between you are nothing like a command. They can only exist between one friend and another.因为你们对于她的感情，早已和指令完全不同，这是只有伙伴和朋友之间才会有的。

CommanderM4 didn't leave that picture behind as a specter to haunt you. On the contrary, it symbolizes her hope for the team to reunite.M4留下这张照片，也绝不是为了让它成为缠绕你的心魔。恰恰相反，这是小队团聚的未来与希望。

(Robella squeezes my hand without saying a thing.)（洛贝拉无言地回握住我的手。）

RobellaI understand, Commander.我明白的，指挥官。

RobellaI guessed as much too. Or rather, I calculated that result.这也是我的猜测，或者可以说，这也是我的运算结果。

RobellaBut perhaps that neural space truly changed me, and my guilt has been keeping me from selfishly forgiving myself all this time.但或许是这个空间真的改变了我，我的歉疚始终阻止着我一厢情愿的自我原谅。

(She lowers her head, looking down at the memento in her hand. She seems to be thinking about something.)（她低下头，看着手中的纪念品，似乎在思考着什么。）

RobellaIn particular... that feeling's gotten stronger after reuniting with you. Is it really okay to keep going on with you like this, Commander?尤其是和指挥官重逢后……这种心情就更加深刻了，就这样和指挥官一起走下去，真的可以吗？

CommanderAnd why not?为什么不呢？

(I squeeze Robella's hand and lead her forward.)（我握紧洛贝拉的手，牵着她继续向前走。）

CommanderWe're going to lose Soppo if we don't hurry up.再不快点的话，我们就跟不上索普了。

(Soppo's come to a stop a short distance ahead. She looks back and waves at us; apparently, she's urging us to hurry up.)（不远处的索普停下了脚步，转头看向我们，挥了挥手，似乎在喊我们快点跟上。）

(Robella's steps are still hesitant, but she's already begun moving forward, and she's now standing by my side.)（洛贝拉还在犹豫着，但脚下却已经加快了三两步，站在了我的身边。）

SoppoI totally agree, Commander!我同意指挥官的说法哦！

SoppoWhile finding my favorite friends from the AR Team is important, living like this, Robella's dream, and my favorite Commander are important too!虽然找到我最喜欢的AR小队的好朋友们很重要，但现在的生活、洛贝拉的梦想、还有我最喜欢的指挥官也很重要！

(Soppo's yelling at us from a distance.)（索普在不远处对着我们大喊。）

RobellaDon't you have too many "favorites" there?你“最喜欢的”也太多了吧？

(Soppo's nose twitches and then she grins cheekily.)（索普的鼻子动了动，露出了一个机灵的笑容。）

SoppoIt can't be helped! You're all my favorites, after all!没办法嘛，真的是最喜欢！

SoppoI heard everything you said, so don't leave me out.你们说的我都听到了哦，不许把我排除在外。

(Soppo isn't walking ahead of us anymore. This time, she returns to us.)（没有再独自走在前面，这一次，索普走了回来。）

(She puts one arm around Robella, one arm around me, and the three of us head back.)（她一手牵过洛贝拉，一手牵过我，就这样，三个人一同踏上了回程。）

CommanderCan you show me that picture again next time?下次，再给我看看那张照片吧？

RobellaYup, of course!嗯，当然！

CommanderAlso, I'd like to see the rest of the stuff in that little space of yours, like you promised.还有说好的，你的心智小空间里，其他的收藏。

RobellaEh? I... Commander, you still remember that... Please forget it!诶？这个……指挥官怎么还记得啊……请您忘了吧！

Pixelated Feelings 4 像素心事4

CommanderFinished at last...总算是完成了……

(With the day's work finally over, I limber up my tired body and prepare to leave the ops room.)（今天的工作总算是告一段落，我活动着疲惫的身体，准备离开指挥室。）

(Just as I'm about to grab a cuppa at the lounge, I am confronted at the door by an unexpected Doll.)（就在我打算去休息区喝一小杯时，却在开门的一瞬间，撞到了一个意料外的人形。）

RobellaC-Commander, you're finished with work.指、指挥官，您工作结束了啊。

CommanderIs it me, or does this feel a little familiar?怎么感觉这幕有些眼熟？

CommanderWere you waiting for me?你在等我吗？

(Upon closer inspection, Robella seems to be spooked by something. Try as she might, she can't hide her panic.)（但我仔细观察后，却发现洛贝拉像是被吓了一跳一样，无论怎么克制，都难掩她的慌乱。）

RobellaEr, I DID have something to tell you... but...呃，确实有些事情想说……但是……

CommanderYou must have been waiting for a long time. Want to join me for a drink in the lounge?等很久了吧，要不要一起去休息区喝一杯？

RobellaN-no, it's alright! It's nothing, really!不，不用了！其实也没什么事情！

(So is there something or nothing?)（到底是有事还是没事啊？）

(Robella's disjointed words are starting to confuse me.)（洛贝拉支离破碎的话让我有些迷惑。）

RobellaI didn't expect you to suddenly pop out! Thanks for your hard work! I'll be going now!没想到指挥官会突然出来，您工作辛苦了，那我就先走了！

(As I watch Robella scamper off, I shake my head, then look at the ops room behind me.)（看着一溜烟逃走的洛贝拉，我有些无奈地看向身后的指挥室。）

(Did I get in the way of her using the ops room?)（难道是我妨碍她用指挥室了？）

(I head back inside, having thought of other things I have to do. I fill my glass with crushed ice, then open a bottle of mild whiskey.)（我回到指挥室，鉴于还有些事情要想，我在杯子中打满了碎冰，再开了一瓶度数不高的威士忌。）

CommanderDandelion, you're there, right?丹德莱，你在的吧？

DandelionYes? Is it my turn to drink with you now that Robella's fled?怎么？洛贝拉逃走后，轮到我来陪你喝一杯了吗？

DandelionEven though there's a long line of Dolls waiting for you to ask them out?明明那么多人形排着队等着你去邀请呢？

CommanderQuit making fun of me, I just wanted to discuss Robella with you.别揶揄我了，我只是想和你聊聊洛贝拉。

CommanderYou saw her just now, didn't you? She's acting weird, and I'm worried.你都看到了吧，她这反常的反应，我很担心。

DandelionStop pretending you don't know anything. You know it all, don't you?在我面前还是省了装傻的环节吧，你明明什么都知道不是吗？

DandelionOr are you saying you're scared, Lord Commander? Scared to respond to Robella?还是说，指挥官大人怕了？不敢回应洛贝拉？

Dandelion(Sigh) Don't tell me you're hoping for me to lend you a hand.噢~该不会是指望着我能帮忙吧。

CommanderIt's true that I was hoping for you to help, but if I'm not wrong, there's someone who knows Robella better than you, wouldn't you agree?说是指望你倒也没错，不过，我记得好像还有比你更了解洛贝拉的人，你说对吗？

CommanderAll I want is for her to know this.我想要的只是让她知道这些。

DandelionWhat, I'm a speaking tube now?拿我当传声筒吗？

DandelionHehe... You're not the only ones who have a hard time contacting her. She ignores me most of the time, you know.哼哼……联系不到她的可不只是你们，她平常可是对我爱答不理的呢。

DandelionTherefore, even if she does know about this, she probably won't help you. It's hard to tell.所以，就算知道了，她会不会帮你，也很难说。

CommanderIf she wasn't willing to help, she wouldn't have freed Robella and Soppo.不会帮的话，就不会释放洛贝拉和索普了。

(The whiskey in the glass has been diluted by the melting ice. I sip it and relax against the back of my chair.)（杯中的酒已经被融化的碎冰所稀释，我浅抿了一口，放松地靠在了沙发背上。）

(Then, I open the comm interface, find Robella, and begin drafting up a message to her.)（打开通讯界面，我找到了洛贝拉，开始编辑消息。）

CommanderDidn't you say you were going to show me that special neural space? I'm interested in seeing it. When can I see it?“之前不是要展示那个特殊的心智空间吗？我很感兴趣，什么时候可以看到？”

DandelionWow, so you're really worried about Robella? You do realize that's only going to make things worse for her, right?哇，你真的在担心她吗？这样只会让洛贝拉更可怜吧？

DandelionThose words are enough to plague her with doubts for a full year.这句话已经足够她在心里纠结一年了呢。

CommanderIs it?会吗？

(I pay it no heed. After seeing that my message has been read, I move on to the next one.)（我不以为意，看着自己的消息被已读后，我继续编辑第二条消息。）

CommanderOh yes, want to look at that picture with me?“对了，还有那张相片，不是要一起看吗？”

DandelionNot bad, Commander, you've grown. I can't believe how sadistic you've become.不错嘛，指挥官也有所成长了，竟然也能变得这么坏心眼。

DandelionRobella isn't as cold or emotionless as she looks, you know. That's only going to throw her neural cloud further into chaos.洛贝拉可不是看上去那么冷淡的人哦，这样只会让她的心智更加混乱的。

CommanderThat's not my intention. I'm simply concerned about her.我可没有这个意思，只是纯粹的关心而已。

CommanderHowever, I've already said what I wanted to say. Are you planning to join me for a drink afterwards?不过，要说的话我已经说完了。接下来你打算和我一起喝一杯吗？

DandelionYou're asking even though you already know the answer. Still, you'd better drink less. Otherwise Robella will have gotten over her issues only to find nothing waiting for her on the other side.明知故问。不过，你还是少喝些吧，可别让好不容易打开心结的洛贝拉扑了个空。

(Soon, the light from the Dinergate dims, and it feels as though I'm the only one left in the room.)（很快，那只兵蚁所发出的光芒就黯淡了下来，房间内仿佛只剩下了我一个人。）

(I pick up my glass, see that both messages have been read, and then I settle in for a hopefully not too long wait.)（我拿起酒杯，看着通讯界面的两条消息都已读，开始了不算漫长的等待。）

(—Beepbeepbeep.)（——嘀嘀嘀。）

It's 2 a.m. at night, and my communicator's alert wakes me up right on time.（深夜两点钟，我准时被通讯装置传来的提示音吵醒。）

(I bring up the comm interface and see Robella's reply.)（我打开通讯界面，就看到了洛贝拉的回信。）

(—"Please open the door, Commander.")（——“指挥官，请开一下门。”）

(I open the door to my room and see Robella's face there, looking somewhat nervous.)（我打开房间的门，就看到了洛贝拉有些紧张的脸。）

RobellaC-Commander, your shirt—指、指挥官，您的衣服——

(I look where she's looking and realize that I haven't buttoned up my shirt yet.)（我顺着她的视线看过去，才发现刚才起床时，衬衫扣子还未能扣好。）

CommanderSorry about that.哦，抱歉。

(I quickly tidy myself up.)（我顺手整理好着装。）

CommanderSo you just asked me to "open up"—What if I was in the ops room?直接一句“开门”，不怕我还在指挥室吗？

RobellaThe ops room... I already checked there, that's why I came to your room.指挥室……我已经去过了，所以才来的指挥官房间。

Commander...Alright, what's wrong now?……好吧，怎么了？

RobellaIt's my neural cloud, something that shouldn't be there showed up again.我的心智空间中，又出现了，原本不存在的东西。

(This is surprising. The sleepiness from being woken up blows away like mist in the wind.)（我心中有些讶异，刚从睡梦中醒来的困倦感也随之一扫而空。）

RobellaJust now, I fell asleep as I was thinking about your words.刚刚，我一直想着指挥官的话，不知不觉就陷入了休眠。

RobellaNo, you probably can't call it sleep. I was conscious enough to realize I was in a dream.不，那或许不能称为休眠，我清醒地意识到，自己正在梦境中。

RobellaIn my dream, there was a blurry but warm figure leading me around and looking through all the newly added items. Finally, we stopped in front of something that shouldn't have existed—梦中，有一个模糊而又温暖的身影，带着我，浏览着最近所增加的那些物件，最终，我们停在了一个原本不存在的东西前——

RobellaIt was a picture of you and me. There was a blossoming white flower beside it, and below the flower was a letter.是我和您的合影，在那旁边，还有一株盛放的纯白花朵，花朵下面，压着一封信件。

CommanderWhat did it say?上面写了什么？

RobellaI picked up the letter, eager to read it, but when I did, I found that it was blank.我拿起信件的那一刻，迫不及待地想要阅读，却发现那上面未着一字。

RobellaHowever, the warmth of the letter made me think of M4's warmth...但是，那封带着温度的信件，却让我感觉到了和M4相同的暖意……

RobellaAnd a sense of being encouraged by someone.还有，某种被鼓励的渴望。

(I realize that this is M4 helping Robella. After learning everything, she chose to help Robella once again.)（我意识到，是M4帮助了洛贝拉。她在得知一切后，还是再次帮助了洛贝拉。）

CommanderWell, now you know that it's not just selfishly forgiving yourself.现在你可以知道了，那并不是你一厢情愿的自我原谅。

CommanderOr rather... M4 never blamed you in the first place.或者说，M4她……根本不会怪你。

Robella...I understand.……我明白了。

RobellaSo... are you willing to view my collection with me?所以，指挥官，还愿意再和我一起看我的藏品吗？

CommanderI've always been willing.一直都很愿意。

RobellaAlright, I'll turn on the projector now—那么，我现在就打开投影——

CommanderHehe, fixed so soon?呵呵，这么快就修好了？

(I tease Robella to try and lighten the mood, but instead, she instantly blushes bright red.)（我调侃了一下洛贝拉，想要活跃一下气氛，却没想到她的脸飞速地变红了。）

RobellaActually... no, Commander, p-please take a look yourself.其实……不，指挥官，请、请您自己看吧。

CommanderWhat, not going to give me a tour?没有解说？

(I'm surprised, but I soon realize why she was blushing—)（我有些意外，但很快，我就明白了她脸红的原因——）

(After the initial row of items is a collection of the AR Team's effects.)（越过了最开始的那些物件后，就是AR小队的藏品。）

(However, everything behind those—from little items I never paid attention to before, to gifts I gave her, even my favorite food and drink—everything there is all related to me. )（但后半部分的藏品，无论是那些我注意不到的小物件，还是我赠予她的礼物，甚至于微小到我喜爱的饮品和食物，全部都是有关于我的。）

(In fact, I see an entire wall of pictures dedicated to me in there.)（甚至，和原本不多的相片相比，我看到了密密麻麻、满满一墙的——关于我的相片。）

CommanderOhh...喔……

(Given the circumstances, despite my facility with teasing Robella, I can't bring myself to say anything to lighten the mood.)（这种情况，无论我平时再怎么擅长和洛贝拉开玩笑，此刻我都无法说出一句能活跃气氛的话。）

(Or no, perhaps the mood doesn't need any lightening after all.)（不，这气氛或许也并不再需要活跃了。）

RobellaCommander, I'm sorry for filling this place up with so many things about you, but I often unconsciously...抱歉，指挥官，擅自放了这么多关于您的东西，但很多时候，我也是无意识的……

RobellaBefore I realized it, you began to take up more and more of my neural cloud.不知道从什么时候开始，您开始越来越多地占据了这个空间。

RobellaYou were kind to me, even though I'm like this, and you even understood all the things I wanted to say but couldn't.就算是这样的我，您还是很温柔地对待我，甚至理解了我那些难以说出口的心思。

RobellaAlthough there are so many things I haven't finished doing or haven't done well, I can't stop myself from hoping that I can travel with you again.明明我还有那么多没有做完、没有做好的事情，但我却不可抑制地开始期待着，与您一起踏上旅途。

RobellaAnd so this little corner of my neural cloud is growing beyond my control, so please... please...这个心智小空间，似乎越来越失控了。请您……请您……

CommanderLet me guess—"Please forget you ever saw this?"你该不会又要说——“请您忘记”吧？

(I can sense that Robella is more nervous than she has ever been in her life. While she's still standing in front of me, she's looking away from me with her eyes closed.)（我能感觉到，洛贝拉此刻正前所未有的紧张。尽管还站在我的面前，头却早已扭向别处，紧闭着双眼。）

(But that's the reason why I won't let her hide her feelings by suppressing them, let alone allow her to run away from them.)（但正因如此，我才不会放任她再次用克制将自己伪装，更不会让她逃离。）

Commander...This isn't something as simple as forgetting by deleting data, you know.……这可不是删除数据就能忘掉那么容易的事情啊。

(I gently pat her head, then slowly pull her face back so she's looking at me.)（我轻抚着她的头发，然后缓缓捧着她的脸，将她的脸再次扭回来，让她看向我。）

CommanderI understand everything.我全部都明白的。

CommanderI will continue going forward with you, and I believe that one day, we will all be together again.我会和你一起前行的，不仅如此，终有一日，我们会一起和她们再相见。

(After that, I take Robella's hand, and we view the last of the pictures. It's the one that's the most distinctive in her neural cloud. I've seen it before in her room, but seeing it in her neural cloud hits differently.)（随后，我牵起洛贝拉的手，看完了最后一张相片，那也是洛贝拉心智中最为显眼的一张，尽管在她的房间看过了，但真正看到它出现在心智空间时，我还是有了更深的触动。）

(Robella, Soppo, ST AR-15, M16A1, and M4A1 are there, huddled close together, with smiles on their faces that I haven't seen in a long time.)（洛贝拉、索普、AR15、M16A1、M4A1，正亲密地靠在一起，脸上是我许久都未曾见过的笑容。）

(We both believe this is a future that will come to pass soon.)（我们都相信着，这就在并不遥远的未来。）

RobellaUm, Commander, I've... I've made up my mind.嗯，指挥官，我也……决定了。

(Robella relaxes her hands, then thrusts her fingers between mine and squeezes tight, so our hands are meshed tightly.)（洛贝拉放松了手中的力道，将手指探入我的指缝间，然后，紧紧地与我十指相扣。）

RobellaI'll be in your care for all the days to come, Commander.指挥官，今后的日子，也请您多指教了。

Covenant 铭契

RobellaCommander... Is it really okay to give this to me?指挥官……这个，真的可以给我吗？

RobellaI'm sorry, I was just... too happy.抱歉，我只是……太开心了。

RobellaI've been thinking about questions like, "Does the Commander know what I'm feeling?" "Will he choose me?" "What should I say when the time comes?"我一直在想这些，比如“指挥官知道我的心意吗？”“指挥官会选择我吗？”“到时候我要说些什么？”之类的问题。

RobellaHuh? You could tell? B-but how?!诶？您都看出来了？怎、怎么会这样！

RobellaStill, after realizing that our hearts are aligned, all those little hangups in the past don't matter anymore.不过，看到您和我心意是相同的，之前的那些小小的纠结，都变得不再重要了。

RobellaFrom now on, please allow me to stay by your side forever and walk together with you. And please, don't ever let go of my hand.今后，也请您允许我，永远站在您的身边，和您共同前进。也请您，永远不要放开我的手。

Focused On You 聚焦于你

(I've just finished the latest Dispatch Room assignments, but just as I'm about to reach for the report, Robella enters the ops room.)（就在我刚结束调度室的安排，正准备拿起报告时，洛贝拉来到了指挥室。）

RobellaCommander... has Soppo told you anything recently?指挥官，索普最近……没有跟您说什么吧？

(I take the coffee she hands me and begin paging through the documents.)（我接过了她递过来的咖啡，随手开始翻阅起文件来。）

CommanderWhy? Did she see you do something that troubles your conscience?你做了什么亏心事被她看到了？

RobellaO—of course not! Still, it's good that she wasn't saying anything inappropriate.当，当然不是！不过，既然她没有乱说就好。

RobellaCommander, I've organized your documents already. Would you like to get an early rest today?指挥官，文件我已经帮您整理好了，今天的话，就早点休息吧？

RobellaNaturally, I've also cleaned up the lounge area, and if you'd like, I can show you the latest cocktail that I learned to mix.当然，休息区我也做好了清洁安排，需要的话，我可以给您试试我新学的调酒。

RobellaDo you have any other difficulties I could help with? Don't worry, I'll make sure I take care of it for you.还有什么其他困难需要我帮您解决吗？请您放心，我一定会帮您处理好的。

(Upon hearing that my upcoming work has already been dealt with, I raise my head and look at Robella.)（听到接下来要做的工作已经完成了，我才抬起头看向洛贝拉。）

CommanderNo, there's nothing. After all, you've helped solve plenty of problems for me.不，没有了，毕竟洛贝拉平时就帮我解决了不少问题。

(As Robella's time on the Elmo grows, her omnicompetence and problem-solving determination have helped me greatly.)（随着洛贝拉在艾莫号的时间越来越长，她全能的工作能力，和解决问题的决心，一直帮助了我不少。）

(But at this moment, Robella seems slightly disappointed to hear me say that.)（但现在，听到我这么说，洛贝拉似乎有着一闪而过的失落。）

CommanderStill, when I think about it, there's a "small problem" that might need handling.不过仔细一想的话，我好像确实还有一些“问题”需要解决。

RobellaThen you can relax and leave it to me.那就请您放心交给我吧。

(I yawn and stretch.)（我伸了个懒腰。）

CommanderI've been feeling a little too exhausted lately. Do you have any ideas on how to deal with it?最近似乎有些过度疲劳了，有什么好的解决办法吗？

(Robella cups her chin and looks to be thinking intently. Then, her face goes bright red, and she walks up to me, as though she's made up her mind to go through with some great effort.)（洛贝拉将手放在下巴下面，似乎陷入了沉思，随即，她红着脸，像是下定了决心一样，走到了我的身前。）

RobellaWell, this is my first time doing this... so I don't know if it'll be effective.我也是第一次这么做……不知道会不会有效果。

(She reaches out and scoops me into her tender embrace.)（她伸出双手，将我拉进她柔软的怀抱中。）

Commander...……

RobellaDoes this help?这样……会有效果吗？

CommanderYou do realize someone is watching, right?有人在看哦？

RobellaEh? W-what?诶？什、什么？

(Robella forces herself to stay calm and looks around, but she doesn't let go of me.)（洛贝拉强装镇静地看了看四周，但却并没有放开我。）

CommanderI was just kidding. Still, I was a little surprised.开玩笑的，我只是有些惊讶。

CommanderSince when were you the kind to do something like this?你是会做这种事的性格吗？

RobellaAh, that's because you were too tired... so... Didn't you like stuff like this a lot in the past?那个，因为指挥官工作太累了……所以……指挥官之前不是也很喜欢……这样吗？

RobellaWhy aren't you saying anything? Am I really not suited for this after all?您怎么沉默了？果然，这样不适合我吗？

RobellaI—I'm sorry, Commander!抱、抱歉，指挥官！

(My silence makes her overthink things. Feeling uneasy, Robella prepares to let go.)（我的沉默让她不自觉有些多想，洛贝拉有些不安地想要放开手。）

CommanderWell, it's not that this doesn't suit you...倒也没有不适合……

(I stand up and hug Robella back. Her tense body slowly relaxes.)（我站起身，反抱回洛贝拉，紧绷的身体也慢慢放松下来。）

(She tries reaching out to pat my head. With the air so relaxed, I can't help but think about what happened earlier today—)（她试探着伸出手，摸了摸我的头发。在这种轻松的气氛下，我不自觉想起了白天的事情——）

CommanderOh yes, I think Soppo DID mention something about you.对了，索普今天好像确实有和我提到你。

RobellaUwah!哇啊！

CommanderShe said you were preparing... a surprise or something?说你在准备什么……惊喜之类的？

RobellaOhhhh, that Soppo! She told you everything—!索普那家伙，这不是全说出来了吗——！！

Food Tasting 1 美食品尝1

The first taste astounds, immediately awakening slumbering taste buds.入口的惊艳，瞬间唤醒沉睡的味蕾。

CommanderEvery mouthful tastes like bliss.每一口都是幸福的味道。

RobellaCommander, even a hero who saves the world needs to rest too~指挥官~就算是拯救世界的英雄也需要合理休息哦~

RobellaHmm-hmm!嗯！

Advance! Miss Courier! · 1 前进吧，王牌配送员！·1

SoppoGrrr— No touchie! It's MINE! Get your damn dirty paws off my candy or I'll rip you to shreds—!!呜——不许碰！那些是我的！把你们的脏手从我的糖果上拿开，我要把你们统统撕碎——！！

CommanderWhy is the room a mess? And why is Soppo trying to bodyslam the roomba? What's going on?房间怎么这么乱？索普为什么在抱摔扫地机器人？到底发生什么事了？

DandelionAh, Commander, you're just in time. As you can see, our Sopdog seems to have run into a little... neural cloud trouble.哎呀，指挥官，您来得正好。如您所见，我们的小索普似乎遇到了一点小小的……心智层面的麻烦。

CommanderNeural cloud trouble? It looks like she's conducting a military operation all over the lounge.心智层面的麻烦？她看起来像是要在休息室里发起军事行动。

DandelionHehe... more like an all-out counteroffensive against imaginary candy thieves. I have to say, it's quite the show.呵呵……一场针对“假想糖果大盗”的全面反击战呢。不得不说，观赏性相当不错。

RobellaA show? Well, if you're talking about how she wrecked my carefully-curated sandbox test environment, that was definitely an eye-opener.观赏性？如果你是指她破坏了我精心准备的沙盒测试环境，那确实是让人大开眼界。

CommanderRobella? How are you involved in all this?洛贝拉？这件事和你有关？

RobellaAll I can say is that I was completely blindsided by it. I received an experimental prank virus from Professor Persica a few days ago and I was planning to put it through some security tests in an isolated environment today...简直是飞来横祸。我前几天从帕斯卡博士那里弄来了一份实验性质的恶作剧病毒，本打算今天在隔离环境里做安全测试……

RobellaAnd what do you know, the moment I put the data disc on the table and turned around to make some tea... Soppo mistook the virus disc for one of her tactical modules with the exact same color and jammed it into her body!结果我只不过是把数据盘放在桌上，转身去泡了杯红茶的工夫……索普就把那个外壳颜色相似的病毒盘当成了她的战术模块，直接插进素体里了！

SoppoGaoooooo! It's the XL boss plushie! Don't think you can steal my eyeball gummies from under my nose! And wipe that cocky look off your face!啊呜！出现了！是大号首领玩偶！你休想用那种高高在上的眼神抢走我的眼球软糖！！

Robella(Sigh) Commander, please allow me to perform a kinetic reboot on her. I reckon she'll settle down after a thump to the back of the head.唉……指挥官，请允许我使用物理手段强制重启她，照着后颈来一下应该就老实了。

CommanderHold on! Violence isn't the answer! Since it's a virus, can't we use an antivirus program on her?等等，暴力不能解决问题！既然是病毒，就没有什么正常的杀毒手段吗？

DandelionOf course we can. In fact, I made a few tweaks to this one and gave it a veeeerry in-te-res-ting wrapper... I'm sure you'll recognize it.当然有。我稍微做了点小小的“加工”，用了一种非常有·趣·的方式……而且，您绝对不陌生。

CommanderWho, me?我、我吗？

DandelionSimply put, I performed a visualization of the virus data and ported it into the "Assault Simulation" framework.我已经将索普心智中的病毒具象化数据，完美移植到了“强袭演绎”的框架当中。

DandelionAs you can see, the virus is now represented as a horde of candy-stealing plushies. Kill them on your terminal and our Sopdog will be right as rain.如您所见，病毒现在变成了一群偷糖果的小玩偶，只要在终端上干掉它们，我们的小索普就能恢复如初了。

Robella...So you're saying we need to play this childish candy defense game with her?……也就是说，我们必须陪她玩这场幼稚的保卫糖果过家家游戏？

SoppoCommander!! The thieves... the thieves are breaking through the defense line! Help me headshot them all!!指挥官！！防线……防线要被突破了！快帮我打爆它们的脑袋！！

CommanderLooks like we have no choice. Come on, Robella, let's try to finish this before that roomba's a complete writeoff.看起来只能上了，洛贝拉，我们准备一下就动手吧，趁着那个扫地机器人还没彻底报废。

RobellaHonestly, what am I going to do with her... Just give your orders, Commander. I'll always be here to back you up.真没办法……指挥官，请下达作战指令，我随时支援您。

CommanderNo problem. Now, let me see... Hang in there, Soppo! Help is on the way!没问题，让我看看情况……索普，坚持住，增援马上就到！

A Hero's Tale Ⅰ 属于英雄的故事·Ⅰ

CommanderRobella, you were saying something about the world being under attack? Is it from one of the toku shows you were watching recently?刚刚洛贝拉你说的世界在被入侵是怎么回事？是你最近在看的特摄剧里的内容吗？

RobellaPretty much, it's a line from the opening theme of a toku show I've been really into lately.您猜得差不多，这是我最近热衷的那部特摄剧中片头曲的歌词。

RobellaThe show is great and the song is really catchy, so I ended up making it a catchphrase of mine for reporting sudden emergencies.因为剧情很精彩，歌曲也很燃，我就把这句歌词当作了最近的口头禅，用于突发情况时的汇报。

CommanderI see. So, did you look me up because there was a sudden emergency?原来如此。那刚刚洛贝拉来找我，是有要紧的突发事情吗？

RobellaNot really... Actually, I just wanted to watch a show with you, Commander.倒不是这样……我其实只是想要和指挥官一起看特摄剧而已。

RobellaIt's just that there were people around outside and, uh, telling you the actual reason was kind of difficult, so I thought of doing it this way.刚才外面的人比较多，我……我很难直接将理由说出口，于是就想了个这样的方法。

(Robella sighs and begins twirling a lock of her hair around her index finger.)（洛贝拉叹了口气，食指勾起发梢的尾部焦虑地绕圈。）

RobellaYou've been working really hard recently and I've been heading out for NOMFA missions all the time lately, so there haven't been many opportunities for us to be alone together.最近指挥官一直工作很辛苦，我也因为非军事管理局的任务时常外出，很少有时间能两个人单独相处。

RobellaSince we both happen to have today off, I was thinking of spending it with you... That's okay, right?所以今天难得有休息的时间，就想和指挥官两个人一起度过……不行吗？

CommanderWell, if it's what you want, then I'm glad to oblige, Robella.既然是洛贝拉的愿望，那我当然会奉陪了。

RobellaThat's great. In that case... we'll start with that show I was recommending you.太好了。那……就先从我推荐的剧目开始看起吧。

(Robella and I sit together and watch the show. The story is compelling and the protagonist has a very charming personality.)（我和洛贝拉靠在一起看起了特摄剧。剧情里的故事引人入胜，主角也具有很强的人格魅力。）

(When it ends, I glance to the side and look at Robella. Her eyes have filled up with tears at some point.)（当剧集结束时我侧目看向洛贝拉，发现她的泪水早在不知不觉间盈满了眼眶。）

RobellaMmm... the MC is just so awesome. Even after facing so much despair and setbacks, he kept getting back up again after being knocked down.唔……主人公真是太帅了。明明面对那么多挫折和绝望，却能一次次倒下后爬起。

RobellaHe truly deserves to be the King named Rebellion! I want to be a hero like him too!真是配得上反叛之名的王者！有朝一日，我也要成为像他一样的英雄！

CommanderYup, that was a good show. The fight scenes, special effects and story were all top notch.确实是一部很棒的特摄剧。无论是打斗、特效还是剧情，都是数一数二的佳作。

RobellaYeah, his super move was really cool too!是啊，而且里面的必杀技也很帅啊！

(Robella suddenly jumps onto her bed and strikes the protagonist's trademark pose.)（洛贝拉突然跳上一旁的床铺，顺势摆出了剧中主人公的经典造型。）

RobellaSuper Move! Slicing Flash... Uwaaaaahhhhh!必杀！凌光一闪……唔啊啊啊啊！

CommanderCareful!小心！

(I reach out to pull Robella into my arms. Fortunately, I make it before she loses her balance and falls off the bed.)（我赶忙伸手将洛贝拉抱在怀里。幸好救援及时，失去重心的洛贝拉才不至于跌下床铺。）

RobellaY-you saved me again, Commander... You're just like a hero, always lending me a hand when I'm in danger.又、又一次被指挥官救了啊……您真的就像是英雄一样，总是在危险的时候对我伸出援手。

CommanderI'm just glad you're not hurt. Still, calling me a hero is a bit much... I just kept you from falling down.洛贝拉没有受伤就好。不过，英雄什么的有点太夸张啦……我只是抱住了你避免摔倒而已。

RobellaNo, that's not what I meant... I'm trying to say that you've always reminded me of a hero, Commander.不是的，我指的不单单是这件事……从很久以前，我就觉得指挥官和英雄很像。

RobellaNo matter what anyone might say, in my heart, you'll always be my...无论别人怎么说……您在我的心中，一直都是我的……

Commander...Robella?……洛贝拉？

RobellaAaaahhhhh, it, it's nothing! C-Commander, let's move on to the next episode!没、没什么！什么都没有！指挥官，我们接着刚才的剧目往下看吧！

A Hero's Tale Ⅱ 属于英雄的故事·Ⅱ

CommanderWhy are you still standing up? What part of this dull and boring world deserves to be saved?“为什么还要站起来？这个无聊无趣的世界究竟有哪里值得被拯救了？”

RobellaIt's nothing complicated. I'm doing this because I choose to.“没有那么多复杂的理由，单单只是我想要这么去做而已。”

RobellaAfter all, a hero can't run away when the going gets tough. Transform!“毕竟，英雄可不能临阵脱逃啊。变身！”

(Robella strikes a pose and then happily tackle hugs me.)（洛贝拉摆出剧中角色的帅气动作，随后开心地扑到我的身上抱住我。）

RobellaI've always wanted to act out that scene and today I finally got the chance to do it!从很久以前我就想演一下这部剧里的名场面，这次终于找到机会啦！

RobellaThank you so much for indulging me, my dear Commander!真不愧是我亲爱的指挥官。谢谢你答应我的任性！

CommanderOh, it was nothing... However, could you ease up a little? I'm having a hard time breathing...这倒是没什么关系……不过，洛贝拉你可以先松开我吗？稍微被抱得有点喘不过气了……

(It is only then that RO realizes our current state. Embarrassed, she loosens her grip, but she's still draped all over me.)（洛贝拉这才意识到了我们的现状。她害羞地将手松开，但身体依旧靠在我的身上。）

RobellaI, uh, I'm sorry. Heroes mess up too when they get excited... Oh yeah, that one's from "Passer-By Rider" Episode 53.抱、抱歉。那个，英雄在太兴奋的时候也会犯错啦……对了，这句话在《路过骑士》的五十三话里就有记载。

CommanderYou really do love toku shows, Robella, from as far back as I can remember.一直以来，洛贝拉真是最喜欢特摄剧了呢。

RobellaYup. Heroes make you feel like you can entrust everything to them. I've admired them for a long time and I've always wanted to be like them.是啊，因为英雄总是给人一种帅气可靠的感觉。从以前开始，我就十分憧憬能成为像他们一样的存在。

RobellaAs a result, I've watched many toku shows and copied their famous catchphrases while working towards meeting the standards of being a hero.为此我看了不少特摄剧，模仿里面名台词的同时，也以里面英雄的标准不断要求自己。

CommanderFamous catchphrases?名台词？

RobellaYup. For example, this line left a deep impression on me...是啊，比方说这句我就印象深刻……

Robella“What kind of expression is that? Those eyes... What are those tears?! Do you think you can protect the world and your beloved by crying?”“你那表情和眼泪是什么意思？只在那里哭的话，不论是地球还是你爱的人都无法被拯救！”

RobellaHearing that feels like it would cut through your confusion like a ray of light. It's a really powerful statement.听起来就像是能刺破人的迷惘一样，是很有力的话语呢。

RobellaGranted, it's perfectly natural to cry when you're in pain or in danger, but tears alone won't save you. Only you can save yourself.虽然遇到危险或是痛苦，人都难免会流下眼泪，但眼泪什么都做不到，最终还是需要靠自己的努力去跨越困难。

CommanderThat's true. I think I'm starting to see why you admire heroes so much now.确实是这样，我也开始渐渐理解洛贝拉对英雄的憧憬了。

CommanderBeing a hero is the childhood dream of every human, but that wish slowly fades away as we grow older and in the end we become dull adults.成为英雄是每一个人类在孩童时的梦想，但这份愿望随着长大渐渐被遗忘，最后成为了无趣的大人。

RobellaWhile that does seem to be the case for many people, I don't think you're like that, Commander.虽然这确实是很多人的结局，但我觉得指挥官不一样。

RobellaWhether in Griffin or on the Elmo, you've always walked the path of becoming a hero.无论是格里芬时期还是现在，指挥官您都一直坚定地走在成为英雄的路上。

(Robella slowly lifts up my hand. Her eyes are filled with trust, just as they have always been.)（洛贝拉慢慢牵起我的手，眼神中流露的信赖，从过去到现在未曾改变。）

RobellaYou're as cool as the heroes in my heart. When I see you, I remember why I set out on that path in the first place.您在我的心目中就和英雄一样帅气。只要注视着您，我也会情不自禁地想起自己的初心。

CommanderHehe, I hardly ever hear you say things like that, Robella.呵呵，洛贝拉会说这样的话还真是罕见啊。

RobellaI... uh, I was just influenced by the mood and ended up saying what I was thinking.我……我就只是看气氛合适，顺势说出自己的心理想法而已。

CommanderIs that like what you said just now, about how heroes can't run when the going gets tough?这就是洛贝拉所说的，英雄可不能临阵脱逃？

RobellaYup! I'll face myself... and like a hero, I won't run away when danger strikes.没错！面对自己的心意……我也像英雄一样，绝对不会临阵脱逃。

RobellaI've always thought you were a hero, Commander... but ten years ago, after you left me, I made another decision.我一直都觉得，指挥官是我的英雄……可是……十年前，指挥官离开我之后，我做了另外一个决定。

RobellaLast time, I told you I wanted to back up a hero, right? The truth is, that's not all I want... In the end, I want to be a hero in my own right.上次我说，我想成为英雄的后盾对吧？其实……并不只是这样，我啊，终究是想成为英雄的。

RobellaNot the main character that everyone looks toward, and not the star of a tragedy who bears all the suffering by herself.不是万众瞩目的绝对主角，也不是独自一个人默默承受一切的悲剧角色。

RobellaI want... I want to become your exclusive hero.我想……成为专属于指挥官一个人的英雄。

RobellaJust like how I always admired you and was proud of following you... I wanted you to be proud of me too.就像指挥官是我的憧憬和骄傲一样……我也希望，能让指挥官为我骄傲。

RobellaI want to protect your smile, Commander.我想要守护，指挥官你的幸福。

RobellaDid you know, Commander? To me, tokusatsu shows aren't just for amusement. They're a form of learning for our shared future.知道了吧？指挥官，对我来说，特摄可不是看着有趣而已，这也是为了我和指挥官的未来而做的学习哦。

A Hero's Tale Ⅲ 属于英雄的故事·Ⅲ

CommanderRobella, the two of them look very similar. What's the difference between them?洛贝拉，这个和那个记忆体看上去好像啊，两者有什么区别吗？

(In between episodes, I notice a couple of Blu-rays on the table. I pick one up while asking Robella about them.)（在看特摄剧的间隙，我注意到了桌上的记忆体，顺势拿起向一旁的洛贝拉询问。）

RobellaThey're both for the same show. However, this one is the 10th year anniversary version, with 20 minutes worth of easter eggs and outtakes, so I ended up buying it for my collection.这两者都是一部剧啦。不过这边这个是十周年纪念版，里面多了二十分钟的彩蛋花絮，我就顺势把它买了收藏了。

RobellaThe one over here is the one I usually watch, and the one in the cabinet is the collector's edition for display... So in total I have three copies of it to show my dedication.然后这边的碟片是我平时看的，柜子里放着的是用来珍藏的限定版……加起来一共买了三份，也算是贡献自己的支持吧。

CommanderThat's Robella for you. I'm in awe of how devoted you are to tokusatsu shows.不愧是洛贝拉，这份对特摄剧的热情真是让人羡慕啊。

RobellaAw, it's just an ordinary passion... I support it because I like it. It's just to make me happy.这只是很普通的对兴趣的热爱啦……因为我想要支持所以支持，只是为了自己高兴而已。

RobellaGiven what you've been doing so far... do you not dream of being a hero, just like me?从指挥官一直在做的事情来看……难不成，指挥官和我一样都梦想成为英雄吗？

Commander...It's not as exaggerated as you say. However, I do desire a peaceful world.……没有你说的那么夸张。但是，希望世界和平的愿望倒是真的。

CommanderIf possible, I'd like there to be no wars in this world.如果可以的话，我希望这个世界可以没有战争。

RobellaIsn't that what a hero always does?那不就是英雄一直在做的事情吗？

RobellaYou might not have realized it, but you just said something really cool.虽然指挥官可能没有意识到，但刚刚你可是说出来了一句超级帅气的台词啊。

CommanderIs that so... However, I think being a hero of justice is very difficult.是吗……不过，我觉得成为一个正义的英雄真的很难。

Robella...Why do you say that?……为什么您这么说？

(As I look at Robella, who doesn't quite seem to get it, I smile and pat her head.)（我看着不解的洛贝拉，微笑着摸了摸她的头。）

CommanderThe more you learn of this world, the more you realize how blurry the boundaries of justice are.经历和了解这个世界越多，越会意识到正义界限的模糊。

CommanderSometimes, people are forced to make cruel choices... That's why I said that it's hard to be a hero who upholds and defends justice.有些时候，人不得不做出残酷的选择……因此我才会说，想成为剧里那样恪守正义的英雄真的很难。

CommanderWhat I'm doing now is right, but I wonder how far this determination of mine can go...现在我在做的事情都是正确的，但这份坚持究竟还能走多远……

CommanderOr if what I'm doing is just treading water.我所做的一切，又是否是在原地踏步呢。

(Robella doesn't answer and only leans in closer to me.)（洛贝拉没有回答，只是把头靠得更近了一些。）

RobellaThe hands of the clock only ever advance.时钟的指针只会不断向前迈进。

RobellaWhile they might look like they're just turning in place, they're still marching forward, step by step, toward the future.虽然看似是在原地转了一圈，但它确实是在一步一步，坚定地迈向未来。

Robella...Yeah, while I might like toku shows, I know that their message is just a wish.……是啊，尽管我很喜欢特摄剧，但我也知道里面的一些美好不过是愿望。

RobellaThe real world is filled with greed and it's much more complex than what the shows portray.真实的世界包裹着利益，远比剧中所描绘的要复杂得多。

RobellaEven so, I still choose to believe that justice exists, and that it's worth fighting for.但即使这样，我还是相信正义是存在的，是值得去为之战斗并守护的。

RobellaSo if one day you find yourself at a loss for what to do next, I'll wake you up with my fists!如果指挥官有朝一日陷入到困境或者是迷茫中，那我就会用我的拳头将你打醒！

Commander...I see. Be gentle, okay?……我知道了，要轻一点哦。

RobellaHeh, you're being funny again. After all... this is you we're talking about, Commander, so I don't need to worry at all, right?哼，指挥官又在说笑了，反正……是指挥官你的话，其实根本不用担心吧？

RobellaI've been watching you all this time, you know. I remember every movement, every expression, every little reaction you made.我可是一直都看着指挥官的，我的记忆里有着你的每一个动作，每一个表情，每一个最微不足道的细微反应。

RobellaThat's why I know, better than anyone else... While someone like that... I mean, while someone like you can be as confused or worried as anyone else, you'll manage to pull yourself together and overcome your difficulties in the end.所以我知道，比谁都知道，这个人……你，虽然也和大家一样会迷惘，会担心，可是你最后一定可以靠自己的力量走出来。

RobellaAs for me... I'll be the one waiting there for you.而我……会做那个在尽头等待着你的人。

CommanderHehehe, I get what you mean now. Alright, if it really does come to that, I hope you'll break me out of my confusion.呵呵呵，我明白洛贝拉你的意思。如果真到那个时候的话，纠正迷茫的事情就拜托你啦。

RobellaYup. Just leave it to me.嗯，就请放心交给我吧。

A Hero's Tale Ⅳ 属于英雄的故事·Ⅳ

RobellaThat's terrible... Why does the hero have to fight alone...好过分……为什么主人公要一个人孤独地战斗……

(Robella watches the protagonist whose body is covered in wounds, and she unconsciously tightens her grip on my sleeve.)（洛贝拉看着剧中独立战斗而遍体鳞伤的主人公，抓住我衣角的手不自觉多握紧了几分。）

CommanderHe struggles up because behind him are all the people he's fighting for.他会站在这里，是因为他的身后有值得守护的万家灯火。

CommanderBut facing the enemy alone was a decision he reached after thinking long and hard.但孤独一人迎战敌人，是他思考良久后做出的决定。

CommanderThe hero can't protect everyone, but he doesn't want to see the people behind him get hurt or die. That's why he's fighting alone.主人公保护不了所有人，他不希望看到自己重要的人在他的面前受伤或是倒下，因此才会决定一个人去战斗。

Robella...Do you think what he's doing is right, Commander? Do you think heroes should be alone?……指挥官觉得他这样做是对的吗？或者说，指挥官觉得英雄就该是孤身一人吗？

RobellaThey say the path of a hero is a lonely one, but this... this is just too much...虽然都说英雄都是孤独的，可是这样……这样太过分了……

CommanderI don't know how to answer this question. But for the hero, this is probably the best choice he can make.这个问题我不知道该如何回答。不过对于主人公来说，这也许是他能做到的最好的选择了吧。

RobellaWhen you made that decision back then... were you in a similar state of mind?当初的指挥官做出选择的时候……也是这样的心情吗？

(She knows I can't answer that question, so she simply snuggles closer to me.)（她知道我没有办法回答这个问题，因此只是让本就靠近的身体贴得更近了一些。）

RobellaI don't think heroes should be alone, and I don't want them to be. People like them, who fight for the happiness of others, should be able to receive happiness in turn.我不觉得，也不希望英雄是孤独的。像他们这样为了大家的幸福而战斗的人，应该要获得属于他们的幸福才对。

CommanderBut this world isn't fair. Not everyone can be a hero, and not all heroes get happy endings.可这个世界并不是公平的。不是每个人都能成为英雄，也不是每个英雄都能获得美好的结局。

CommanderVery often, people don't fight for any lofty cause or ideal, but they take on the world just to protect the ones who are important to them.更多的时候，大家不是为了什么伟大的理由，单单只是为了保护自己的重要之人而和这个世界战斗。

Robella...Yeah, I get that. In the past, I was always the one that you protected and rescued.……嗯，我能理解。在过去，我一直都是被指挥官保护、拯救的那一个角色。

RobellaYou and the others in the AR Team would always lend me a helping hand when I was in danger.指挥官和AR小队的大家，总会在我陷入危险的时候伸出援手。

Robella...But I don't always want to be the one who gets rescued. Commander, I want to be a hero's companion.……但是，我不想一直做个被拯救的人。指挥官，我想成为英雄的同伴。

RobellaWhen the hero's in trouble, I want to fight by his side. When he fails, I want to suffer with him.当英雄陷入危险的时候，和他一起战斗；当英雄失败的时候，和他一起痛苦。

RobellaI want us to cry together, laugh together, lean against each other, and watch my favorite toku shows together.我们一起哭泣，一起欢笑，一起靠在一起看我最喜欢的特摄剧。

RobellaCommander, that's the dream I want to protect.指挥官，这就是我想要守护的梦想。

(Robella leans her head on my shoulder and grabs my hand.)（洛贝拉将头靠在我的肩上，顺势握住了我的手。）

RobellaAfter all, you've got a whole world to take on. What would you do without a partner like me?毕竟指挥官接下来还会和这个世界战斗，少了我这样的帮手怎么行？

CommanderYou're right. Thank you, Robella.你说的没错。谢谢你，洛贝拉。

Robella...You don't have to be so formal about it. I might sound all righteous and stuff, but there's actually an element of selfishness in there.……倒也不用那么正式啦。别看我说的那么光明正大，其实我也是有自己的私心的。

CommanderSelfishness...?私心……？

RobellaYes... I can proudly stay with you forever, because I'm someone who backs heroes up.是啊……毕竟我是英雄的后盾，可以名正言顺地永远和指挥官在一起了啊。

RobellaDon't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually a very gentle girl. I'm sure I'd be the best match for you.别看我这样，其实我很娴淑的，一定能配得上指挥官。

CommanderHaha, gentle doesn't sound like a good description for a hero's partner. You sound more like the female lead.哈哈，娴淑可不太像是英雄后盾的形容啊，更像是女主角的呢。

RobellaIn, in any case, you get what I mean! Quit it! Quit sniggering! I swear I'll do my Ultra Robella Kick on you!总、总之就是那个意思啦！指挥官您就别偷笑啦！再笑的话，我要请你吃必杀踢击了哦。

Stage Performance 1 舞台演出1

RobellaRobella: Commander, we've... returned to the Elmo?洛贝拉：指挥官，我们这是……回到了艾莫号吗？

Commander{}: ...{}：……

RobellaRobella: Hm, No... there's too many oddities...洛贝拉：唔，不对，异常的地方太多了……

RobellaRobella: The Elmo should have been damaged, and Soppo along with the others shouldn't be here either...洛贝拉：艾莫号明明已经遭到了损坏，而且索普她们也不在……

Commander{}: ...Don't be fooled by what you're seeing, Robella.{}：……不要被眼前的景象骗了，洛贝拉。

Commander{}: This is not the real Elmo, just a mirage created by the power of Nirvana.{}：这不是真正的艾莫号，只是希岸力量的投影。

RobellaRobella: So that's it... Did "she" do this?洛贝拉：原来如此……是“她”做到的吗？

RobellaRobella: "She" purposefully simulated the appearance of the Elmo, probably because she wanted you to be well rested... but she only allowed me to accompany you.洛贝拉：“她”特意模拟出了艾莫号的景象，大概是希望您能够好好休息……但却只让我陪您进入了这里。

RobellaRobella: Then in here, there must be something that only I can do.洛贝拉：那么这其中，一定存在着某些只有我才能做到的事情。

Commander{}: ...Robella?{}：……洛贝拉？

RobellaRobella: Allow me to confirm your current condition.洛贝拉：先让我确认一下您的状态吧。

RobellaRobella: ... Please don't misunderstand, I'm not complaining about your caution to me.洛贝拉：……请不要误会，我并没有在抱怨您对我保持警惕。

RobellaRobella: Being in an unknown environment, maintaining suspicion of everything happening in the surroundings is a logical form of self-protection.洛贝拉：身处未知的环境，对周遭的一切保持怀疑，是合理的自我保护机制。

RobellaRobella: I simply believe that compared to words, this method would calm you down faster.洛贝拉：我只是觉得比起语言，用这种方式能让您更快地安下心来。

Commander{}: ...Seems like you are very familiar with these scenarios.{}：……看起来洛贝拉对这种情景很熟悉。

RobellaRobella: I've seen scenes like this in tokusatsu shows before.洛贝拉：我之前看过的特摄剧里，的确有这样的桥段。

RobellaRobella: When a hero meets a strong enemy, just relying on himself is difficult to overcome the sense of unease.洛贝拉：当英雄面对强敌时，单靠他自己是很难摆脱不安的。

RobellaRobella: At this time, there must be a companion beside him whom he trusts completely... That could help him clear the uncertainty, and strengthen his resolve to walk forward.洛贝拉：这个时候，必须有他真心信任的同伴留在身边……才能帮他驱散迷茫，坚定前行的意志。

Go Along附和

Commander{}: In that case, "her" choice of choosing you is correct.{}：如果是这样的话，“她”把你留下是正确的。

Commander{}: As the partner that awakens the hero, Robella is indeed the most fitting choice.{}：作为唤醒英雄的同伴，洛贝拉的确是最合适的人选。

RobellaRobella: Dolls are different from humans. With thorough calculations, we can arrive at a definitive answer.洛贝拉：人形和人类不同，只要经过详尽的演算，就能得到确切的答案。

RobellaRobella: ...That's what I thought in the past.洛贝拉：……我以前是这么认为的。

RobellaRobella: But when I simulated what would happen next, my neural cloud became unstable.洛贝拉：但在推演接下来的状况时，我的心智却出现了紊乱。

RobellaRobella: I'm afraid I'm not strong enough to protect you and everyone else...洛贝拉：我担心自己力量不足，无法保护好您和大家……

Commander{}:...It's precisely because we have compatriots that we want to protect, that one feels unease. On this regard, Robella and I are the same.{}：……正是因为有了想要守护的同伴，才会感到不安。在这一点上，我和洛贝拉是相同的。

Commander{}: So don't shoulder everything yourself, let's share it between us.{}：所以不要把重担都压在自己身上，让我们一起分担吧。

RobellaRobella:...Understood, Commander.洛贝拉：……我明白了，指挥官。

RobellaRobella: I hope that you can feel my sincerity.洛贝拉：希望您能感受到这份真心。

Commander{}:...Thank you, Robella.{}：……谢谢你，洛贝拉。

CommanderLooks like she's pulled out all the stops to obfuscate things... Thanks, I'll be off immediately.看来我是被她的障眼法捉弄了啊……谢谢，我这就去找她。

RobellaCommander, the basic setup for the celebration is done.指挥官，庆典的布置已经基本都完成了。

RobellaHowever, this is no time for us to relax. The following preparations will be critical for this event.不过，眼下还没到松懈的时候，接下来的准备才是这次庆典的重头戏。

RobellaDo you see what I'm holding, Commander?指挥官，你看我手上拿的是什么？

CommanderAre those... maple leaves?这是……枫叶吗？

RobellaHehe, I thought the same thing when I first saw them in the warehouse. It was only on closer inspection that I realized that they were skillfully-designed wishing slips.呵呵，我一开始在仓库看到它们的时候也是这么认为的。直到仔细辨认后，我才意识到这些是精心设计的许愿签。

RobellaI call them Maple Blessings, due to their shape. Since this is a harvest-themed celebration, I decided to use these wishing slips for the event.这叫枫叶祝语。我看它们样子形似枫叶，刚好这次的庆典又是以丰收作为主题，于是就把这些许愿签拿了出来。

RobellaWhen the celebration nears its end, everyone can write their own wishes on these slips.等庆典接近尾声的时候，大家可以在上面写上各自的愿望。

RobellaDon't you think it's a romantic and very appropriate way to cap off a harvest festival?指挥官，您不觉得这个浪漫的行为很适合为我们的丰收庆典收尾吗？

CommanderYou're right. I think everyone's going to like your idea.确实，感觉大家会喜欢你的点子。

RobellaHm, then without further ado, I'll give out these slips to everyone.嗯，那事不宜迟，我现在就把这些许愿签去分发给大家。

CommanderSplit your stack with me. We'll be more efficient if we both hand out slips at once.留一些给我去发吧。我们分开行动，效率也会更高。

RobellaAlright then, I'll give this share of the slips to you.好的，那这部分的许愿签就拜托给您了。

Massage Lounge 3 按摩休闲3

RobellaCommander, I've distributed the wishing slips that were assigned to me.指挥官，我负责的许愿签已经分发好了。

CommanderYes, me too. Now all we have to do is wait for the celebration to begin...嗯，我也是，剩下的就是等待庆典举行了吧……

CommanderSpeaking of which, do you have anything planned for the celebration?说起这个，洛贝拉对庆典有什么计划吗？

RobellaHm... I'd like to gather everyone for a wishing ceremony on the last day of the event.嗯……在庆典的最后一天，我想组织大家参加祈愿仪式。

RobellaI want everyone to have their own wishing slips, with their wishes written on them.我希望大家都准备好各自的许愿签，写下各自的愿望。

CommanderI see. What's your wish then, Robella?原来是这样。那么，洛贝拉你的愿望是什么？

RobellaHm... I'd like to keep it secret for the moment. Perhaps you'll know on the last day of the event.唔……现阶段我希望保密，或许，等到庆典的最后一天您就知道了。

RobellaAlright, let's leave that aside for now. What are you going to do after this? Do you have anything planned?不说这个了。指挥官，您接下来打算做什么呢？有什么安排吗？

CommanderI promised Qiuhua and Sabrina to help them cook and taste-test their dishes.我答应了秋桦和塞布丽娜，要帮她们制作料理和试味。

RobellaReally? You'll be cooking in person? I'm getting more and more excited about this celebration now.是吗？指挥官您也亲自下厨吗？这下庆典越来越让人期待了。

RobellaLet's do our best to make this event a successful one, Commander.为了让庆典顺利举行，指挥官，我们一起加油吧。

Massage Lounge 4 按摩休闲4

RobellaHm... Is it me, or is the lantern on the left a little crooked...唔……左边的灯笼是不是挂得有点歪……

SoppoSo tilt the one on the right too! That way, it'll all balance out!那就把右边的也歪一点，或许就能刚好！

RobellaWait, don't touch it! Honestly...等等，你别乱动！真是的……

CommanderAre you guys decorating the hallway? Do you need help?你们是在装饰走廊？需要帮忙吗？

RobellaCommander! I'm sure we'll get it done in no time with your help.指挥官，如果您来帮忙一定会事半功倍。

SoppoWe need to hang up all the stuff in that box over there!我们要把那边箱子里的东西都装饰好！

CommanderYou mean that box? What's inside?箱子？那里面放着的是？

RobellaUm... there should be some handmade lanterns for the celebration in there... Assuming Soppo didn't take the wrong ones this time.唔……是我为了庆典亲手制作的灯笼，如果索普这次没拿错的话。

CommanderThe wrong ones?拿错？

SoppoHahaha, I accidentally mixed it up with my collection!哈哈哈，刚才不小心和自己的收藏品搞混了！

RobellaYes, Soppo took the wrong box and when I opened it up, I saw a few scrapped Dinergates inside...是的，索普拿错了东西，当我打开箱子时，发现里面放着的是好几台废弃兵蚁……

SoppoHahaha, don't worry, I'll get it right this time!哈哈哈，抱歉，这次一定不会错了！

RobellaSo yes, we're going to decorate the hallway with lanterns for the celebration.就是这样，我们要用灯笼来装饰庆典。

RobellaI DID suggest the party, after all. I'm afraid of killing the mood if the decorations are too plain.毕竟是我提出的派对，如果装饰得太过简陋，恐怕会扫了大家的兴致。

CommanderThat's an excellent idea. I'll give you guys a hand.很不错的主意，我也来帮忙布置吧。

SoppoYaaaaay! With you around, we won't have to fear anything, even more Dinergates!太好了呢，有指挥官的话就算遇到兵蚁也不可怕了！

RobellaPlease, stop bringing up Dinergates...求求你别再提兵蚁了……

Massage Lounge 5 按摩休闲5

CommanderHmm... We're pretty much done with the lanterns. Robella, how are things on your end?呼……灯笼看上去布置得差不多了。洛贝拉，你那边怎么样？

RobellaThey're going very well. We're pretty much done decorating.很顺利，已经基本都装饰完了。

SoppoMe too!我这边也是！

RobellaNow all that's left is some basic cleanup work. We can start the celebration once that's done.剩下的就是一些基础的收尾工作，等弄完就可以举行庆典了。

CommanderAlright, let's work a little harder, then... Hm?好，那我们再一起加把劲……嗯？

Robella...Commander?……指挥官？

CommanderAh, it's nothing. I just got a message...啊，没什么。突然收到了一条消息……

SoppoLooks like it's from Groza!好像是闪电的消息呢！

CommanderAnd she seems pretty worried, judging by the message's contents.从信息上来看，似乎她还挺着急的。

RobellaPerhaps something happened and she wants to discuss it with you?可能是遇到了一些重要的事情要和您商量吧？

RobellaSoppo and I will handle the rest of the decoration. Go on and meet Groza in the dressing room.剩余装饰就让我和索普来处理。指挥官，您先去衣装间见闪电吧。

SoppoYup! Leave it to us!没错，交给我们就好！

CommanderMm, alright. See you at the celebration.嗯，好。那庆典见。

NemesisThe drizzle wets the gentle breeze, the radiance remains... It seems the issues on your side have been resolved.细雨沐风，辉光存依……看来，您那边的事顺利解决了。

CommanderYes... I guess I managed to grant Groza and OTs-14's wishes.是啊……也算是实现OTs-14和闪电的愿望了。

RobellaMay I make a wish with you too, Commander?指挥官，我们也能和您一起祈愿吗？

CommanderOf course you may. However, I just, made a wish...当然可以，只不过，我刚才已经许过愿了……

RobellaHere. I've got many more of these Maple Blessings.给，我这边还有多余的枫叶祝语。

RobellaYou've been worrying your head off for us all this time. I think you deserve to make a few more wishes.您一直在为我们操劳。如果是您的话，我感觉多许下几个愿望也没关系的。

NemesisYes. My divinations indicate you may wish for more things.嗯，占卜的结果也显示了您可以更多地许愿。

NemesisHowever, can you make a wish alone with me? I would rather disclose the nature of my wish to you alone.不过，您能单独和我进行祈愿吗？关于愿望的内容，我想单独分享给您。

RobellaI feel the same way. Commander, I would like to make my wish with you and nobody else.关于这点我有同样的想法。指挥官，我也希望您能考虑单独和我一起许愿。

RobellaPlease think about which of us you will make your wish with.请您思考一下，选择和我们中的一位进行祈愿吧。

RobellaPlease think about which of us you will make your wish with.请您思考一下，选择和我们中的一位进行祈愿吧。

RobellaCommander, please make a wish with me.指挥官，请和我一起来祈愿吧。

RobellaThat is my and Soppo's wish.这是我和索普共同的愿望。

RobellaHave faith in me, Commander. I will make this wish come true with steady, hard work.请相信我，指挥官。我会脚踏实地，依靠努力去实现这个愿望。

CommanderI also believe that we'll be reunited with them one day. Until then, I'll stay with you and spare no effort in making it come true.我也相信终有一天我们能和她们再度重逢。在那之前，我会一直陪在你的身边，为了实现它而不断努力。

Robella...Thank you. Hearing you say that puts me at ease.……谢谢您。有您这番话，我就安心多了。

RobellaWe'll continue to be in your care from now on.今后也请多多指教，指挥官。

Affinity Records 契合度记录

Record 1Her original name is RO635; the very first third-generation Doll, and a prized creation of Professor Persica. She once fought side by side with the Commander, having taken part in many of the battles against Paradeus 10 years ago. She set herself apart with her great achievements, and served as one of the witnesses of the final fate of "that woman". When the Commander left Griffin, the AR Team lost the shining beacon that lit their way forward. With M4A1 and M16A1 once again being missing during this perilous time, they were bereft of anyone whom they could rally behind. The AR Team thus desperately required a leader who could weather them through this storm. Naturally, the first thing Robella did was take leadership of the rest of the AR Team, and with Kalina's help, they left Griffin together, forming an independent PMC of their own. It was not that they did not wish to pursue the Commander, but the Agreement meant that they were forced to operate independently. Despite this, they never once questioned the Commander's decision; if it had been up to them, they would have made the same choice. "Someday, our paths shall cross once more. We'll tread upon the road together, and continue fighting for our shared goals once more." Robella firmly held that belief within her heart.本名RO635，最初的三代人形，帕斯卡的得意之作。 曾与指挥官一同并肩作战，参与了十年前指挥官与帕拉蒂斯的绝大多数对抗，并立下了赫赫功劳，同时，也是“那位女士”终末的见证人之一。 在指挥官离开格里芬的时候，AR小队失去了追随者，彼时M4A1与M16A1均又一次失去踪迹，彻底失去主心骨的AR小队，迫切地需要身为队长的洛贝拉做出改变。而洛贝拉所做的第一件事，便是带领AR小队的成员，在格琳娜的帮助下，一同脱离了格里芬，并建立了独立的私人P.M.C. 她们并非不想追随指挥官而去，但出于协议，她们不得已只能单独行动。然而自始至终，她们都没有质疑过指挥官的选择，如果可以，她们也愿意做出同样的决定。 “迟早有一天，我们会再一次走在同一条道路上，为同一个目标，继续奋战。” 洛贝拉如此坚定地相信着。

Record 2Robella has many reasons why she enjoys tokusatsu works. For instance, she holds great appreciation for the heroic protagonists who star in such works and their staunch devotion to protecting others whilst vanquishing evildoers. The visual presentation of such works and special effects are also an important part of it; the kaiju, fancy transformations, exciting fight scenes and so on impart awe into their beholders. Robella is also drawn to the imaginative scenarios presented in these shows; her heart had been won over by the varied monsters, powers, futuristic gadgets and other setting details of the medium. But in truth, those concepts are by no means exclusive to tokusatsu movies. Films of other genres are perfectly capable of presenting such elements too. The utmost truth of why Robella is so in love with tokusatsu shows is for one reason and one reason only—because they're cool. Indeed, unlike the self that she usually presents to others, Robella is madly in love with the unique characterization and showiness in tokusatsu media, be it the transformation sequences which others wave off as "ridiculous", the "unnecessary" pre-battle banter, or even the "seemingly pointless" multi-stage battle forms the characters take... She hides this passion of hers deep within her heart, and only ever shows it when she has to. These "childish" fantasies are one of the few solaces she can afford for herself, who must be constantly calm and centered.洛贝拉非常喜欢特摄片，原因有很多。例如说向往特摄作品中塑造的英雄形象，以及他们为了保护他人、战胜邪恶而奋斗的精神；例如说视觉奇观和特效，特摄作品中常见的巨大怪兽、华丽变身、精彩打斗等场面，能够带给观众强烈的视觉冲击和感官刺激；例如说天马行空的想象力：各种各样的怪兽、超能力、未来科技等设定，都勾动着洛贝拉的心绪。 但实际上，只是这些优点，不止是特摄，其他类型的片子也可以做到面面俱到。而洛贝拉之所以独独钟爱特摄的理由，只有一点——帅气。 是的，与洛贝拉平日给人的印象不同，她其实十分沉迷于特摄片独有的那种人物塑造以及耍帅的方式，不论是那些在外人看来“莫名其妙”的变身姿势，还是战斗前“多余”的处刑台词，以及“意味不明”的新增形态…… 她将自己的爱好深藏于心，只在必要的时候展现出来，对时刻都要保持冷静和严肃的她，这些显得有些“幼稚”的幻想，是她不可多得的调剂。

Record 3As the leader of the AR Team, Robella must put up with an extraordinary amount of stress. While the only remaining members are Soppo and ST AR-15, Robella cannot partake in her daily life with them whilst keeping in her role as an impersonal leader. After leaving Griffin, Soppo and ST AR-15 kept trying to find the missing M4A1 and M16A1, and while Robella was also worried about their friends who had vanished after their last battle, she also had to take into consideration how they would continue surviving in the chaotic world they found themselves in. Robella was not only the team's leader, but also the legal representative of their newly founded PMC. Thus, she had to take on many commissions in order to keep it running and to acquire the funds required for their operations. Under normal circumstances, Soppo and ST AR-15 would help her in completing these commissions, at least until they found new "clues" pertaining to M4A1's whereabouts. When that would happen, Soppo and ST AR-15 would drop everything they were doing to follow those leads, leaving Robella to clean up the mess by herself. However, Robella did not complain about this. After all, she would have gone with them to search for her friends if she could, not because it was an imperative programmed into her base layer, but out of genuine friendship. That said, there were simply far too many things for her to consider.作为AR小队的队长，洛贝拉一直承受着非凡的压力。尽管如今的AR小队已经只剩下索普与AR15两名成员，但洛贝拉始终无法以领导的身份与她们相处。 在离开格里芬后，索普与AR15依然不放弃地试图寻找失去踪影的M4A1与M16A1，尽管洛贝拉也同样关心在最后一战后消失的战友，但同时，她也不得不考虑如何让她们在这混乱的世界继续生存下去。 如今的洛贝拉不仅是小队的队长，同时也是她们新成立的P.M.C.的法人代表，为了维持运营，也为了给她们的行动赚取资金，她接下了很多委托。在一般情况下，索普与AR15依然会与她一同完成这些委托，直到她们发现新的，关于M4A1下落的“线索”。 这时，索普与AR15会不顾一切地放弃当前所有的任务前往追查，只留下洛贝拉一人面对剩下的烂摊子。 她并不会为此而抱怨，如果可以，她也愿意一起去寻找伙伴，不是出于烙印在底层的命令，而是真挚的情感。 但她要考虑的事情，实在太多了。

Record 4Robella had been rolled out 10 years ago, when third-generation Dolls only existed on paper. Even after those self-proclaimed "third-generation Dolls" began to take part in various conflicts, Robella still drew much curiosity from her new friends as the very first of her kind. "Hey Robella, Robella! Can you fly?" "No..." "Hey Robella, Robella! Can you shoot laser beams from your eyes?" "I can't do that either..." "Hey Robella, Robella! Can you move things with telekinesis? Maybe bend spoons with your mind?" "I can bend them with my hands..." Robella found herself rather at a loss for how to deal with all these imaginative questions from curious onlookers. Logically speaking, even those new friends of hers who never worked at Griffin ought to have seen third-generation Dolls before. Yet, for some reason, such a misunderstanding had come up... Hmm, maybe it's precisely because they've seen other third-generation Dolls? Still, as the original third-generation Doll, Robella did not possess any special abilities. The only thing that set her apart from other Dolls was her completely blank base layer. However, that explanation did not seem like it would satisfy all those who sought their curiosity sated. And so, in order not to disappoint all the hopeful eyes upon her, Robella began training to bend spoons with telekinesis.在十年前，三代人形还只存在于纸面上时，洛贝拉便已经存在于世，尽管在如今，自称“三代人形”的人形们已经出现在了纷争的舞台上，但作为最初的三代人形，洛贝拉还是引起了很多新朋友们的好奇心。 “洛贝拉洛贝拉，你会飞吗？” “不会……” “洛贝拉洛贝拉，你的眼睛可以发射镭射光吗？” “也不行……” “洛贝拉洛贝拉，你可以靠念动力控制东西吗？比如说把汤勺弄弯？” “我可以用手掰弯……” 面对一些好奇宝宝们天马行空的疑问，洛贝拉非常无奈。 按理来说，就算是那些没有在格里芬工作过的新朋友，也基本上都见过三代人形，不知道究竟为什么会有这样的误解……嗯，也许就是因为见过其他的三代人形？ 但作为最初的三代人形，洛贝拉并没有任何的特异功能，她与寻常人形的差别，仅在于完全空白的底层。 但是，仅仅是这样，似乎不能满足那些好奇宝宝们…… 苦恼而从不愿让人失望的洛贝拉，开始练习用念力弄弯汤勺。

Record 5Robella HATES Dinergates. That's obviously because once upon a time, she was stuck in a Dinergate body due to injuries. The experience has left a lifelong trauma in her heart, and seeing Dinergates twitching on the ground after being taken out makes her wince in unconscious sympathy. Every Doll who had once served with Griffin knows this, and after Robella boarded the Elmo, everyone aboard soon learned about it too. Out of kindness, they did not go out of their way to inquire about it but instead took the initiative to get any Dinergates out of Robella's way during missions without bringing up the subject. Robella can even tell two seemingly identical Dinergates apart in moments, discerning the differences in their appearances and performance specifications down to the most minute parameters. With a single glance, she can tell what mission profiles any given Dinergate is most suitable for and the types of terrain it can traverse. Eventually, someone asked Robella why she had gained so much insight into Dinergates despite her utter loathing of them. Her embarrassed answer was: "That's because... I find myself unconsciously wondering what would happen if I were stuck inside a Dinergate again..." Clearly, the shadow that experience cast upon her heart will follow her for a long time yet.洛贝拉讨厌兵蚁。 原因自然不需要多问，是由于过去曾不幸受困于兵蚁素体的经历，在她的心中留下了很深的阴影。甚至在看到被击倒然后倒在地上扑腾腿的兵蚁时，她也会产生感同身受的同理心。 出自格里芬的每个人都知道这一点，而在洛贝拉登上艾莫号之后，艾莫号上的人也都很快知晓了这段过去，温柔的大家并没有刻意去询问，而是自发地在任务中帮助洛贝拉清理那些挡路的兵蚁。 但很快，大家就发现，在讨厌兵蚁的同时，洛贝拉竟然对兵蚁还有着非同一般的了解。 即便是两只一模一样的兵蚁，洛贝拉也能迅速分辨出两者外形和性能上的差别，对于具体的参数也是了如指掌，只需要看一眼，就知道这只兵蚁适合执行什么样的任务，并且能够出入什么样的地形。 但终于有人忍不住去问洛贝拉为什么明明很讨厌兵蚁却如此了解它们之后，洛贝拉才不好意思地给出了答案。 “因为……时不时，我总会下意识开始考虑，如果又被困进去该怎么办……” 显然，这段黑历史还要再跟随她很长的一段时间。

Record 6In the past, the person who filled Groza's current position on my staff, that is to say, my adjutant, was Robella. Now that Robella was back with me, a somewhat awkward set of circumstances had arisen—On the one hand, Robella was an old friend of mine; we'd been through tough times and overcome great difficulties together. But on the other hand, I'd been working with Groza for ten-odd years. From a certain point of view, that was over five times as long as the time I'd spent with Robella. There was also no question that Groza understood the situation aboard the Elmo better too. As such, the working relationship between the two of them had turned particularly peculiar. "Miss Robella," Groza's usual decisiveness was replaced with an uncommon caution. "What do you think about the arrangements for the upcoming mission?" "Ah... well, I have no problems abiding by them. What do you think, Groza?" Robella seemed to have noticed Groza's wariness and was at a bit of a loss for how to respond. —Scenes like this had occurred more than once in the ops room. Perhaps it was to avoid situations like this and also to make her stance clear, but Robella began cutting down heavily on her visits to the ops room and avoided raising her own opinions. She had not come here in order to create division and dissent within the group, and she considered her silence an appropriate price to pay to avoid such an eventuality. And that was also the reason why I now stood in front of Robella's room. "RO... uh, I mean, Robella, are you in?" I said as I knocked on her door. "I'm here. Please come in, Commander." I saw Robella caring for her weapon in her room. Upon seeing me enter, she smiled, something I hadn't seen in a long time. "Still not used to the new name?" "I've called you RO for so long that it'll take a while to get used to calling you Robella." I smiled sheepishly, then found a chair and sat down. "Not going back to the ops room?" "...I think I'll pass," Robella said with a shake of her head. For a moment, I glimpsed a hint of forlorn dejection in her eyes. "My position is a little... sensitive, and I'm afraid that it might interfere with the work there." I fell silent for a while, then sighed. "I'm sorry I couldn't take you with me back then." "No, you don't have to apologize!" Robella put down her weapon and turned to me. Her gaze was firm and certain. "We all understand what you had to go through... After all, if even we didn't understand you, then who could?" "Robella..." For a moment, I was at a loss for words. "I'm very grateful to Miss Groza," Robella smiled with a hint of relief. "She took good care of you when I, Dandelion, Kalina, and Leva weren't around, didn't she?" "Even if I'm not physically by your side, I'm happy enough just being able to help you out in some way." She blinked, then gave me a smile that was as warm as the rising sun. "Well, I do feel a little lonely, but being able to see you again after so long is enough for me." "And besides, I can keep myself busy with my own affairs. I'm not trying to brag here, but I'm my own boss now~" She said, with a rare cheekiness in her grin. It was as though she was back to the RO635 from back then, brimming with both life and vigor. "...Ah, you've done very well, Robella... I'm glad to see you all again too." I nodded as well, and smiled from the bottom of my heart. While we'd both changed a lot and our circumstances were different now, the one thing that had remained the same was the trust and the bond between us.以前在格里芬的时候，承担如今闪电职责的人，其实是洛贝拉，换言之，也就是我的左右手。 如今，洛贝拉回到了我身边，便出现了一些尴尬的情形——从情理上讲，洛贝拉是我的老帮手，我们一起闯过了最艰难的时光，携手战胜了最大的难关。 但另一边，我与闪电已经合作了十年有余，从时间上来看，已经是和洛贝拉合作时长的将近五倍，对于现在的艾莫号来说，她无疑更加熟悉情况。 因此，二人之间的工作关系就变得有些微妙了。 “洛贝拉小姐。”指挥室内，对于向来果决的闪电来说，她认真的征询显得格外谨慎，“关于下次的任务安排，您是怎么想的？” “啊……我服从安排，闪电你怎么看？”洛贝拉也注意到了闪电在顾忌自己的态度，有些不知所措。 ——这样的情景不止一次出现在指挥室里。 也许是为了避免这种情况，同时也为了表达自己的态度，洛贝拉后来很少来指挥室了，也很少主动提出建议。她来这里的初衷，绝不是为了让团队因为她而产生隔阂，为了避免这种情况，她宁愿选择沉默。 这也是现在，我站在洛贝拉的休息室门口的原因。 “RO……啊，洛贝拉，你在吗？”我敲了敲门，轻声问道。 “我在，请进，指挥官。”洛贝拉正在休息室内维护自己的武器，看到我进来，她露出了久违的笑容。“您还不习惯改口吗？” “叫得太多，一时半会不太习惯。”我有些不好意思地笑了笑，找了张椅子坐了下来。“不回指挥室去吗？” “……算了吧。”洛贝拉摇了摇头，眼神中闪过一丝落寞。“我的身份有些敏感，我担心……展开工作会变得不顺利。” 我沉默了一会儿，叹了口气：“很抱歉，当时没能带上你们。” “您不需要向我道歉！”洛贝拉放下手中的武器，转身面向我，她的眼神坚定而执着。“我们都理解您的苦衷……如果连我们都不理解，还有谁能理解呢？” “洛贝拉……”我一时语塞，不知该说些什么。 “我很感谢闪电小姐。”洛贝拉笑了笑，笑容中带着一丝释然。“即便我，丹德莱，格琳娜，莱娅都不在您身边，她也把您照顾得很好，不是吗？” “就算在您身侧的人不是我，只要能为您献上一份力，我就已经很满足了。”她眨了眨眼，瞧着我，笑容灿烂得如同阳光一般。“虽然有些寂寞，但隔了这么久，终于再见到您，我已经很满足了。” “而且，这样，我刚好可以忙自己这边的事啊，不瞒您说，我现在已经自己当老板了呢~”她难得地露出了一丝调皮的神色，仿佛又回到了当年那个充满活力的 RO635。 “……啊，洛贝拉很厉害呢……我也是，能再见到你们，我很开心。”我点了点头，也露出了由衷的笑容。 尽管我们彼此都变了很多，所处的立场也不尽相同，但唯一没有改变的，就是我们之间的默契和羁绊。

Record 7One night, I was passing through the lounge when I saw Robella lying on a couch, seemingly napping. She was curled up like a tired kitten and it tugged on my heartstrings. While Dolls don't catch colds (probably), I had the feeling that sleeping exposed on the couch was probably none too comfortable for her and I made to carry her back to her room. She was sound asleep and didn't react even when I scooped her into my arms. It would seem she had upgraded her frame, because her synthetic skin felt softer to the touch and had a warmth to it that was indistinguishable from a human's. I soon reached Robella's room and entered. It was clean and relatively unadorned apart from some tokusatsu figures on her desk and bedside table, which was very much in keeping with Robella's personality. I helped take off Robella's boots and gently laid her on her bed. After pulling the covers over her, I made to leave. Robella picked this moment to moan in her sleep all of a sudden. "Urgh... aaah..." "Robella?" Panic crept into my heart. While there was ample evidence that Dolls could dream, there was still a very real possibility that there might be a problem with her neural cloud. "Robella? Are you alright, Robella?" "M... M4!" And then, I heard a familiar name from Robella's lips. I froze up, and then Robella's eyes snapped open. "C-Commander...?" "...You were having a nightmare, Robella." I bent down and took her hand in mine. "Are you okay?" "I..." Robella's voice trailed off. "I, I dreamt of M4 again, Commander." "I know." I reached out and gently stroked her hair, hoping to console her a little. "It's not wrong to miss her." "In my dream... I couldn't catch up with her no matter what I did." Robella's grip on my hand relaxed a little. "I ran with all my might, but she got further and further away, until I lost sight of her..." I didn't speak, only watched Robella quietly as that gentle yet determined face came to the forefront of my mind as well. "...Don't let your mind wander. The fact that you're dreaming of her is probably a sign that M4's still watching us from somewhere." I shook my head. It felt like I was saying it for my benefit as much as hers. "You talk like she went to heaven." Robella sniggered, and then she closed her eyes. "Could you stay with me for just a little bit more?" "Yeah, no problem." I pulled a chair over and sat by the head of her bed, her hand in mine. As I looked down at her face, peaceful at last, I couldn't help but smile. I waited until she finally fell asleep before I left.某天夜里，当我路过公共区的时候，我发现洛贝拉靠在沙发上，似乎正在打盹。她蜷缩着身体，像一只疲惫的小猫，让人心生怜爱。 虽然人形大概不会着凉，但我依然觉得她在沙发上睡应该不会太舒服，便准备把她抱回休息室去。 她睡得很熟，即便在我的怀中，也几乎没有任何反应，十年不见，她似乎升级过自己的素体，仿生皮肤碰触起来更加柔软，也有着与人类一般无二的体温。 我并没有花费太多时间，便抵达了洛贝拉的房间，我打开房门走进去，房间内显得很干净，也没有太多装饰，只有一些特摄英雄的手办摆在床头和桌子上，十分符合洛贝拉的性格。 我给洛贝拉脱掉靴子，轻轻地放到床上，替她盖好被子，便准备离开。 而就在这时候，洛贝拉忽然发出了有些痛苦的梦呓声。 “……呃……啊……” “洛贝拉？”我不禁有些担忧，尽管已经有很多实例证明了就算是人形也会做梦，但遇到这种情况，依然说明很可能她们的心智出现了问题。“洛贝拉，你没事吧？洛贝拉？” “M……M4……！” 随即，从洛贝拉的口中，我听见了一个熟悉的名字。 就在我愣住的时候，洛贝拉猛地睁开了双眼。 “指，指挥官……？” “……你做噩梦了，洛贝拉。”我佯装无事，蹲下身来，握住她的手。“没事吗？” “我……”洛贝拉愣了愣。“我，我又梦到M4了，指挥官。” “我知道。”我伸手轻轻抚摸着她的头发，期望能够为她带来一些安抚，“惦念着她本身也不是什么坏事。” “梦里的我……无论如何也追不上她。”洛贝拉握紧了我的手，似乎放松了一些。“我拼命奔跑着，而她却越来越远，直到我看不见……” 我没有说话，只是默默地看着她，脑海中也不禁浮现出那张温柔而坚定的面庞。 “……不要乱想，你能梦到她，或许正意味着M4还在什么地方看着我们吧。”我摇了摇头，既是说给她听，也是说给自己听。 “您说的就好像她升天了一样。” 洛贝拉没忍住噗嗤一笑，随即闭上了眼。 “您能再陪我一会吗……？” “嗯，好啊。” 我直接拉来一张椅子，坐在了她的床头，握着她的手，看着她安心的面庞，我也不禁露出微笑。 一直到她沉沉睡去，我才离开。

Record 8"Commander, want to bake a cake with me?" "Hm?" Before I even realized what was going on, Robella had already dragged me to the kitchen. ...In truth, I thought I knew what brought this on. It was probably because a cake ended up being a critical clue in the toku series episode we had just watched, which piqued Robella's interest, but I hadn't expected her to get so carried away. To be frank, neither Robella nor I was the cooking type, and as I looked at the various ingredients and utensils in front of me, I had my doubts about actually following through on this. "Relax, Commander," Robella chuckled as she pointed at a recipe book. "All we have to do is stick to the instructions and everything will be fine!" "Okay then..." I said, and gathered up my resolve. Everything should be okay if we followed the recipe... ...And as it turned out, I had been far too naive. What ensued could be charitably described as a kitchen nightmare. I did as Robella said and mixed the flour, sugar, butter, and other ingredients together, then used a mixer to churn them up. However, I'd never used anything like that before and accidentally sprayed the flour everywhere, including onto Robella's face. "Sorry, sorry..." I frantically tried to clean the flour off but accidentally dabbed her nose with cream instead. Now she looked like a cat. "Hahaha..." Robella couldn't help but laugh at my messy, flour-coated face. I couldn't help but join in her merry laughter. "Commander?" Robella tilted her head in confusion as she watched me space out. "Ahem... I... er... Well, Robella, you... you look kind of cute." I couldn't stop the words from coming out, but there was a hint of good humor in them. She froze for a moment. Her once-pale face instantly turned bright red as she lowered her head in mild panic and tried to wipe the cream off without meeting my gaze. After much effort, the cake batter was finally done. Next came the baking, and I carefully poured the batter into the tray before loading it into the oven. Robella set the temperature and time, but we only truly relaxed when we took the cake out of the oven. "And now... the final step!" Robella picked up a piping bag filled with cream. "Time to decorate the cake!" "Awesome!" I picked up a piping bag too, eager to put it to use. "So, what are you going to put on it?" "Hm..." Robella mused. "What do you think, Commander?" I remember the toku series episode we just watched and laughed. "Let's go with the face of Mysterious Warrior N!" We finished our artistic culinary endeavor and then sat back to taste this "hard-earned" cake. My somewhat abstract interpretation of the Mysterious Warrior's features meant that the cake wouldn't be winning any awards for looks, but it tasted surprisingly good. "Robella, you're really good at this," I said, meaning every word. "It was all thanks to this recipe," Robella smiled humbly." And besides, this cake wouldn't have been anything special without your help, Commander." "Special? How so?" "What I wanted to try wasn't baking the cake itself, but the experience of making one with you." "I hope that we can do this more often in the future, watching tokusatsu shows together, making cakes together, chatting about meaningless things together, that sort of thing." Robella winked at me. "What do you think, Commander?" "...I think I'd like that too." Our eyes met, and we smiled. Just like Robella said, this somewhat deformed cake that I made with her would probably become one of my most precious memories.“指挥官，要来一起做蛋糕吗？” “欸？” 当我反应过来的时候，洛贝拉已经拉着我来到了厨房。 ……实际上我也理解，大概是因为刚才在一起看特摄片的时候，片中的蛋糕作为主要剧情线索，引起了洛贝拉的兴趣，但没想到她会这样有行动力。 硬要说的话，我和洛贝拉都不算是擅长进厨房的类型，面对眼前摆放的各种食材和工具，我有些不确定是否真的要做。 “放心吧，指挥官。”洛贝拉笑着，指着食谱说，“严格按照这个来，肯定没问题的！” “好吧……”我硬着头皮上了，就算是我，只要按照食谱来做，应该就没问题吧…… ……事实证明，我还是太天真了。接下来的过程，简直可以用“鸡飞狗跳”来形容。 我按照洛贝拉的指示，将面粉、糖、黄油等材料混合在一起，然后用打蛋器搅拌。可是，我从来没用过这玩意儿，一不小心就把面粉洒得到处都是，甚至还弄到了洛贝拉的脸上。 “抱歉抱歉……” 我手忙脚乱地帮她擦拭脸上的面粉，却不小心把奶油也蹭到了她的鼻子上，这下好了，她看起来更像一只花脸猫了。 “哈哈哈……” 洛贝拉看着我满脸面粉的狼狈样，忍不住笑了出来。 看到她这样开朗的表情，连我也忍不住跟着她笑了起来。 “指挥官？”看到我在发呆，洛贝拉歪头疑惑道。 “咳……那个……洛贝拉，你现在的样子……挺可爱的。”我忍不住说道，声音里带着一丝笑意。 她愣了一下，原本白皙的脸颊瞬间就变得通红，洛贝拉有些慌乱地低下头，匆忙地擦去脸上的奶油，不敢看我。 之后，经过一番折腾，面糊总算是做好了。接下来就是烘烤，我小心翼翼地将面糊倒入模具，然后放入烤箱。洛贝拉设定好温度和时间，直到蛋糕成功从烤箱中取出，我们才放下心来。 “接下来……就是最后一步了！” 洛贝拉拿起一个裱花袋，里面装满了奶油。“我们来给蛋糕装饰一下吧！” “好啊！” 我也拿起一个裱花袋，跃跃欲试。“你想做什么样的装饰？” “嗯……” 洛贝拉想了想，“指挥官觉得呢？” 我想起刚才看过的特摄，便笑道：“就画一个蒙面好汉的头像吧！” 作画结束后，我们一起品尝了这个“来之不易”的蛋糕。虽然因为我略显抽象的画作，它的卖相变得不怎么样了，但味道却出奇的好。 “洛贝拉，你的手艺真不错。” 我由衷地赞叹道。 “这都是食谱的功劳。” 洛贝拉谦虚地笑了笑。“而且，如果没有指挥官您的帮忙，这个蛋糕也不会这么特别。” “特别？” “我想体验的，不是蛋糕本身，而是我们一起做的过程。” “我希望，以后，我们还可以像这样，一起看特摄，一起做蛋糕，一起聊些不重要的话题。” 洛贝拉眨了眨眼。 “您怎么想呢？” “……我也一样。” 我们相视一笑。 正如洛贝拉所言，这个与她一起制作的、歪歪扭扭的蛋糕，大概会成为我心中最珍贵的回忆之一。
