Hello. Have many of you already forgotten your weekends? How strange, and no good for the upcoming ones. You should all try to prepare. How about rosemary? Or blueberries. Both are very good for thinking.

Or even... blueberry jam and cream in a scone served with rosemary tea. Yes, doesn't that sound very good? I feel brighter already.

Remembering to eat them doesn't count.

[voice]

[underspring]

Why wouldn't it?

[voice]

[holyknights]

Because it can't help you remember things you've already forgotten!

[Not that it really matters anymore. He's already remembered that there's something he needs to try remembering.]

[voice]

[underspring]

Oh, but it could. Instead of one scone, a person should have two. Double the blueberries and double your chance!

[voice]

[holyknights]

[This is some delicious advice... But the strangeness of the conversation and the fact that his servant has taken notice of it irritates him even more. It's not you, Yuyuko, it's him.]

Soon, you'll eat too much to remember anything!

[voice]

[underspring]

[ She knows, for it's never her. ]

How can you say that if it's true?

[voice]

[holyknights]

[Well played, Yuyuko. Well played.]

You'd be too full! It's a fact!

[voice]

[underspring]

Who told you that?

[voice]

[holyknights]

I don't need to be told! It's what happens when you eat too much!

[voice]

[underspring]

My ferocious acquaintance said that it's rude to lead people on. Are you sending me astray?

[voice]

[holyknights]

In your dreams! How can you not know if it's the truth or not?

[voice]

[underspring]

Indeed? How could we ever know? Food can be such a delicious mystery.

[voice]

[holyknights]

Don't you eat anything other than scones?

[voice]

[underspring]

Me? I've never had a scone before.

[voice]

[holyknights]

[WHAT...]

Th-then why do you keep talking about them so much?!

[voice]

[underspring]

Are we not talking about them?

[ ???? ]

[voice]

[holyknights]

You're the one who mentioned them first!

[voice]

[underspring]

There was a tea, too...

[voice]

[holyknights]

But that's not something you eat!

[Of course, Elliot has no idea what this conversation is about anymore... but that's okay. He is Elliot Nightray, he does not need to know.]

[voice]

[underspring]

Can't it be? If it's an ingredient.

[ And Yuyuko, she is perfectly fine with this conversation! It's so. Deep And Thoughtful. ]

[voice]

[holyknights]

[They are the best conversation partners!]

Who would want to eat that? It would taste bad!

[voice]

[underspring]

Oh, would it? Is that your experience with it?

[ The greatest!! Much better than that Leo. ]

[voice]

[holyknights]

[He never did know how to speak to people...]

O-of course not! But tea can taste funny by itself!

[voice]

[underspring]

[ And you know what they say about speaking to the dead...! ]

That's why you add to it - to make it more pleasant.

[voice]

[holyknights]

Like what?

[...scones?!]
