Q: "From what I understand, then... You are not interested in science or school itself, but in the projects of other participants in the exhibition. Did I understand correctly?"

Rebecca: "Yes, you understood everything to the letter, at least not what my ex did who was... Well, quite cut off from reality."

Q: "... If I may ask Rebecca, why are you interested in these projects, I understand there may be young geniuses here, but I doubt you'll get anything out of it..."

Rebecca stopped at one booth, it had a device on it that checked the measurement of body oil, so she went over to test it, and so did he, to see what she was checking, but the implication was that she wanted to give him her answer to the question.

Rebecca: "I'm interested in all this because, you see... I'm talentless. My only positive thing is my looks, and there are even better looking girls than me... And I should have at least one talent, coming from an important family, but I don't have it... At all. That's why when my leg was taken away, my parents practically abandoned me, but only in terms of hope for my future, and since I have no talent, I look at the talents of others, looking and dreaming of what it's like to be such a very talented person."

They both fell silent, Rebecca with a calm smile on her face as she watched the Oil measuring machine, and as Q looked at her blankly, he felt perhaps... The same? But not in terms of talent, no. He felt it in terms of... How to put it into words...

Q: "... Emptiness."

Hearing this, Rebecca immediately turned her head towards the man who was standing there looking at him with a blank stare, for a moment she felt cold, no, shivers, even though she had no skin. After a moment though... Seeing that emptiness in his eyes, she knew something was wrong.

Q: "... Apparently we are not that different, we both lack something, and it is filled with emptiness instead of anything that would be useful. You are Talentless, I am Emotionless. You feel a void in your range in terms of intelligence as well as physicality, then I in the emotional range. We are not that different."

The girl widened her eyes looking at the boy who turned his gaze towards the machine measuring Oil, the girl couldn't look away from him, currently, she felt like then. At the campsite, she couldn't take her eyes off him, something terrible and beautiful at the same time. She felt warmth on the visor while blushes appeared on it.

If she was honest, she felt the same as she had then, but this time with a pinch of calm and indeed similarity. It was a similar but also new feeling, a feeling she wanted to have all to herself, just as she had had surprise in her eyes before, now there was recognition, a desire to embrace the feeling.

Rebecca: "... If that's what you think... Do you think that after this date... Will you want to go on another date with me?"

The yellow-eyed man looked towards the blue-haired girl who was looking at him with full hope and expectation, honestly Q didn't know if something like that would happen again in the future, it could, after all it wouldn't hurt him, he was also interested in her, so of course he could agree to it, so he nodded in agreement with a fake everlasting smile.

Q: "Sure Rebecca, as long as you accept me."

The girl giggled and then moved on, dragging Q who followed her, there were many different machines or other interesting things around, even fucking Watermelon, actually the yellow-eyed one wondered what it was supposed to look like, why it looked like that. He would never understand it.
