"..." Evelyn-sama gives me a long, lingering kiss, and I just calmly accept it. I know full well this isn't out of real love or interest, or even her giving me a gift.
When Evelyn-sama gets nervous, scared, or paranoid, her narcissism spikes. That usually makes her seek "attention" from her own reflection. Her kissing me, as happy as it makes me, is not a kiss between her and me in her mind; it's a kiss between her and a reflection of herself she can actually touch.
When she kisses me, she doesn't see "Eve." When she kisses me, all she sees is a reflection of herself.
'This is... kind of sad...' I feel bad for her. Seeing someone so obsessed with their own self-image is sad, but it's not something I can fix. And if I ever brought it up, I know our relationship would become too awkward.
