Aaaahhh! You want me to stay by your side? I can barely keep my heart in my chest!

Fascinating...

Don't mind me, just continue with your work.

Hmm? What am I looking at? Why, you, of course!

If that's what you ask, Doctor, I will do what it takes to become stronger.

Heheh... You don't need to worry about any ambushes or assassination attempts. Because I'll aaalways be here with you.

Are you finally... a little bit interested in me now? Well, I've always been a big bit interested in you.

Thanks for taking such good care of me these days. By my knighthood of Kazimierz, I hereby pledge to repay your kindness with my life—huh? You're not used to me talking this way? But I'm an honest-to-goodness knight. Surely I can improvise a speech or two.

Ever since I was taken away to Kazimierz, it's rare for someone to be so kind to me. So, if you don't mind, Doctor... I, Gravel—no, I Senomy, on my honor as a knight, shall serve you always at your side.

When I'm here with you, don't you feel your heart racing?

Mmmwah. Hm? What's wrong? Your face is beet red. That's just how I say hello. Don't think too much about it. Anyway, I'm Gravel, a knight of Kazimierz. It's a pleasure. Heheh.

Are you the one who comes up with all the Rhodes Island's battle tactics, Doctor? Oh~ that's even more intriguing.

You think I'm doing well, Doctor? Yaay!

This means you need me, doesn't it? Heheh.

You want to go together? Hehe...

Oh~ You chose me!

I'll come with you~

Hehehe...

Hmm?

Any orders for me?

This is the place~

Surely a good spot.

I am your shadow.

Hehehe...

You really think you'll get away?

Gather up, my rats!

Of course the Doctor's tactics are flawless~

My blade hasn't even been stained red yet... hehe...

Run all you like, Let's see how far you can get.

Sorry... did I... mess up again...?

Hmm, looks like there's a lot of good hiding places here in this room~

Hehehe...

Yes. I'm right here, always and forever.

Arknights.

Happy New Year, Doctor. Give me your hand—mmmwah—hm? What are you so surprised for? Kissing the hands of those we've sworn to protect is how us knights of Kazimierz celebrate the New Year, you know. You've never heard of it? Sounds like you need to pay a little more attention.

How are you today, Doctor?

Doctor, does it ever keep you up at night... that you might never find any trace of your past again? Whenever I step out onto Rhodes Island's deck, I wonder, would walking away from here bring me any closer to my forgotten memories?... Say, Doctor, don't you know you're supposed to console me, when I bring down the mood like this?
