O-oh, wow... I don't even know what half of those things are! [Emil blinks in surprise, wide-eyed. He knows what a tower, aircraft, weapons and magic are, but the rest... Well, he feels like some of them are things he might've heard of before, but they don't really ring a bell.] He must've been really smart. Um, what's a... personal device?

[Unfortunately for Agnès' well-summarized explanation, Emil's not from the technologically advanced part of his world...]

Yeah... [...] Wait, which one wouldn't appreciate it, the fish or the dancers...? [He mutters that part kind of quietly, not expecting an answer.]

[It's normal! ...For Marta, at least...]

Yeah, I-I kind of wish I could be as open as her... [The question about when it was has Emil hesitate a bit. How much should he tell her? He's already told Agnès a lot about Marta, but this feels like it's going into something too serious and personal to talk about while watching fish.] U-um, well... She hasn't really said anything about it. But the way she avoids talking about it, I kind of... think I know when it happened. There was a day when... something really bad happened in Palmacosta - the city we're both from - and I get the feeling she doesn't want to remind me of that day, so she doesn't talk about it... So, um... I think it was probably six months before we met again.
