"All right, everyone. Sorry, but I'm leaving the rest to you."
"Mm. Goodnight, Commander Big Sister."
"Sleep well, Commander Big Sister. I'll get some rest too once the support work is wrapped up."
"I’ll pull back soon too~"
"Once I hand things over to the local AI, that is!"
"I’ll leave the rest to Olive... Goodnight, Commander Big Sister."

She decided to calm down with something warm to drink before heading to bed.
"Commander Ma’am. Patrol drones are in flight, all sensors are functioning normally, and I’m assisting with monitoring.
Please don’t worry too much."
"I know... but I can’t help it!"
Sighing heavily as she walked, Eve was gently comforted by Ringo, who placed a hand on her back and matched her pace.
