Emilia smiled as she slid onto the older girl's lap, snuggling affectionately. "It's because I both trust and like Noelle that I'm so intimate. I wouldn't be like this with those who I don't consider worth it."

Emilia looked away shyly. "W-Well, there's more to it than that. But I guess it all comes down to how I feel about someone?"
