Fess up, do you love Roland?
Where was this coming from?
The Library Director stares at the direction of the voice, wondering for a brief moment if she should dignify that with a response.
"I don't know what it's like to love without hate." She responds flatly. "I still love Ayin and I still hate him... what good would it do to point that complicated sense of 'love' towards another person?"
She shrugs lightly,
"Roland... I appreciate him. He's the first real friend I've made. I understand the idea of platonic love, so perhaps I could apply that thought here. I'm not sure yet."
And then a smile. A warm, knowing smile.
"And Roland loves Angelica. I'm certain he always will. If I cannot forget my love for Ayin which was programmed into me, how could Roland move on from his soulmate who he came to love by choice? I believe it's more than enough to accept each other as we are, as friends."
