Who: Celeste Blackwell and the fleet
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Can be found sulking around the SS Golden kitchen
When: Feb 6, evening
[The last time this girl appeared on the network, she was in quite a hot rage, so it might be odd to see her looking quiet and pensive now. Sad, despite a slight smile, to those who really look closely.]
I've been away for awhile - don't ask, I don't quite understand it myself - but apparently I've come back just in time for Valentine's Day to be around the corner. And normally I'd be the last person to bring up something like this, but...
[But what? She doesn't say, just asks her question.]
... have you ever been in love? What were they like? What really made you think "My god, this is the one" when there are so many other people out there who might've been just as good? And I mean, if you're in love right now and you still want to answer, it needn't be past tense. I suppose - I just don't quite understand this either, I never have, but that doesn't stop it from happening.
[She appears to be at a loss for a moment, before shaking her head and chuckling to herself.]
My mates would laugh themselves sick if they could hear me now.
[And that's all.]

I don't know if I've felt it or not.

its hard to know sometimes
you could just want something from someone so badly that you assume it must be love
or you could care for them in another way and get your wires crossed
the whole things far too complicated at times

I never said anything.
[This much self-reflection is way too uncomfortable for her to take. Asuka's own motivations make her feel antsy and gross. It's awhile before she says more.]
You really were in love. Right?

but i got it wrong a few times as well
i nearly lost one of the best mates ive ever had that way
id never felt that close to someone and NOT been in love
but you can wind up with a sort of adopted family sometimes when youre very isolated
the feelings are just as strong but not the same sort
