Chương 41: Chapter 41 - [R18](E x N) Trying Things Again

Naia was finding herself more calm about recent events. She wasn't sure if it was just everything Commander Orfea had told her recently that raised her self-esteem... or if it was because of the missions they had been on together without Theia.

She was still worried about the woman's situation as something of a… friend. But besides trying to directly question Command like their Tactician had been doing, there really was nothing to do.

In any case, she didn't find herself thinking as much about how bad things felt between her and Ev because of the woman joining the squad.

If anything, the fact that he hadn't said much to her yet about the strangeness between them left her kind of 'assured'. While he didn't seem to know how his past looks and the sense of drifting distance had been harming Naia's confidence in their relationship, he was also the kind of person who... would just tell her he wanted to end things.
