Andrea stares at her....before returning to sleep, murmuring something about him being more drunk than usual.

[Empiricist]

Silica tries shaking him awake again. "Please! I'm being serious!"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Madmoiselle, I'm not that drunk."

[Empiricist]

"But I really do love them! Please believe me!"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Andrea blinks.
"You're seriously asking me to marry you to a scythe...."

[Empiricist]

"Yes! Please... I love them more than anything else in this accursed world..."

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Yes! Please... I love them more than anything else in this accursed world..."

"Fine. You're married now. There you go. Go kiss it or something. I'm going to go sleep before I see even more crazy things. Andrea stumbles off, muttering "Merde" under his breath.

[Empiricist]

Corvus, was that actually a proper marriage?
Corvus' knowledge should be able to tell him that the potion Silica took to calm down was a military-grade emotion-manipulation substance from Lucinda's world. However, unlike what she thought, it, rather than suppressing emotions, incites a paroxysmal amount of love towards the targeted entity. Hence, its naming as a "Potion of Yandere". Interestingly enough, it generally is used to target weapons, though normally that of an enemy's as the user becomes compelled by their obsession with it to the point of ruthlessly eliminating the hostile possessing it and all nearby enemies so that their "love interest" would e theirs and theirs only. Due to its targeting being willpower-based along with other factors, issues may arise... there was a case where a soldier fled battle due to mistargeting and madly falling in love with a cactus in some sort of desert on the other side of the planet and another where someone became too efficient and killed the enemies long before the effects wore off, resulting in them eloping with a recently stolen rotary pistol. Normally the effects shouldn't last so long, but Silica's specialized body and low willpower seem to be magnifying the duration by a significant quantity.

>Miss Tykki....I believe you are....under the effects of a substance that is affecting your mind.<

[Empiricist]

What do you mean?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

>When did you begin to have feelings for this scythe?<

[Empiricist]

At the end of the concert, when all those people died... it comforted me... made me feel safe... I couldn't help loving it... it's elegant design, the curvature of its blade~

[IamanElfCollaborator]

>Did you imbibe ANYTHING before then? I sense something is interfering with your mental processes.<

[Empiricist]

A solitary petal of a cherry blossom, dyed withering black falls from nowhere upon the scythe, drenching it with theurgical power. Its one-in-six chance of disintegrating itself and the user is now replaced with a situational chance to do something or other pertaining to calling upon Sumizome. Which is to say, generally speaking, either assisting romances, or horribly murdering every living creature within a several kilometer radius and removing all traces of their existence  barring their souls.
I drank a potion to help calm myself down.

>And did you fall in love with the scythe before or after you drank it?<
