Eclipse
Back in Eclipse, Shuna who was incharge of clothing and medical care for the city was now standing on outside of the clothing store and up into the sky.
Shuna sighs.
???: Is something the matter, my dear.
Shuna turns around to see Irene floating over her.
Shuna: Oh! Greetings, Ms. Irene. I was just taking a break from working.
Irene: There is no need for formalities, as we are both subordinates. You can just call me Irene.
Shuna: Okay, Irene.
Irene: You have a sad expression on your face, what seems to be the problem?
Shuna: I-It's nothing!
Irene: Hmmm. Let me take a guess.
Irene: You miss Kagari, don't you.
Shuna blushed
Shuna: N-No! It's not that! Well, I do miss him a little.
Irene: It's okay, Shuna. I miss him too.
Shuna: How do you know that miss him?
Irene: I'm good at reading people, and I know something else...
Shuna: What is that..?
Irene: Shuna...
Irene: You have a crush on our Lord of Shadows, don't you?
Shuna began blushing uncontrollably
Shuna: A-A crush?! I-It's not like that! He's...He's my lord and I...I worry for his safety!
Irene: The fact that your blushing tells me otherwise, my dear. Come sit down.
Shuna sits down with Irene.
Irene: Shuna, I know you have an attraction to him. I see the way you look at him. Tell me, what's stopping you from confessing your feelings.
Shuna: Well....
Shuna: It's that Lord Kagari has a relationship with you, Ms. Albedo, Ms. Kuroka, and Ms. Semiramis. I've heard that Ms. Daki has an attraction to him as well. I'm afraid that...
Shuna: I might get in the way.....
Irene pats Shuna on the back.
Irene: My dear, I can say on his behalf that Kagari would never think of you as an inconvenience if you became another one of his lovers. He loves all of us equally and he doesn't have a favorite. We love him and he loves us.
Irene: Besides, when I became his lover, he told me this.
Kagari: Irene, if I ever do something as terrible as mistreat my lovers. I give you permission to kill me where I stand.
Shuna: He really said that?
Irene: Yes, he did. But, he's shown that he would never mistreat us, so I see no reason to carry that out.
Shuna: Well, if I were to become one of his lovers, would you have a problem with that?
Irene: No. I'd welcome you.
Shuna: You would?
Irene: Yes. I've come to terms with the realization that other women would be attracted towards him through his motivation and actions. It wouldn't surprise me if every woman in Eclipse was in love with him.
Shuna: E-Every woman in Eclipse!!!
Irene: I'm joking, Shuna.
Shuna: Phew, pardon me.
Irene: But in all seriousness, if you were to confess your feelings to him, you need to be more confident in yourself.
Shuna: But, what about the others? Would they be able to accept me?
Irene: You would have no trouble from Kuroka. She's compassionate but she's also very lazy and playful. When Kagari formed his harem, she was very interested sharing him with other girls. She'll like you.
Irene: Semiramis is very attached towards Kagari. If anyone were to cause harm to him, she'd most likely poison them to death. As long as you don't anger her, she'll warm up to you.
Irene: Albedo on the other hand is a different story. She is very devoted to Kagari and she'll do anything he tells her to do. Out of all 4 of us, she is the most infatuated with him. I'd advise not angering her as well, she sees all of us as love rivals and she won't go down without a fight. But she can accept the idea of a harem.
Irene: You should be okay.
Shuna: I feel like I'm going to be in trouble.
Irene: Don't worry I'll protect you.
Irene: I am the strongest in the harem.
Shuna: I see, well...okay then! When Lord Kagari returns...
Shuna: I'll tell him how I feel...
