...Honestly Battler has no idea what is going on with this relationship or where it is going?? He finds himself very much in love with Beatrice even though he's not entirely sure how he got there from thinking that maybe she's not entirely bad. He's okay with it though '-'a
There's two big issues there, the first of which is Raven! Because obviously he is also very close with Beatrice, and it makes Battler pretty damn jealous, especially since Raven's been there longer in Aather and because he still seems to know something Battler doesn't! But Raven is also a really cool guy and a good friend and even actively helping out with solving Beato's riddle? So there are a lot of conflicting feelings there and no idea how things could get resolved.
The second thing is that obviously Battler still hasn't figured out what Beatrice's deal is. So since he doesn't understand her motives, he has no idea how to reconcile the Beatrice from his memories with the things he's learned about her in Aather and that just makes things extra confusing!
Mostly he's just doing the same thing he has for a while now, which is to go along with what happens and wait for things to make more sense '-' Though recently I've been prioritising memories that motivate him to try and think a little harder about what it all means, so we'll see how that goes!
Look at me cleverly responding after recent developments have happened.
THERE'S STILL PART OF HER THAT WONDERS HOW MUCH HE'S ACTUALLY SOLVED THE MYSTERY since he more alluded to things than actually "proved" anything to her, but she's willing to take that as a sign of discretion from him :x (like "I know what's going on so now I ALSO know why it is a subject you treat delicately, look at me treating it delicately!!") So she is taking on faith the idea that he really does understand her on at least a basic level, and she's 99% sure that he at least recognized his "sin" even if he didn't outright state it, so she's satisfied with that for now .///. At this point she's not even entirely sure how to... respond... Since they've already acknowledged their love for each other and as long as Battler isn't somehow horrified by the revelation, then it's a pleasant surprise, but still sort of... OK SO NOW WHAT?! I NEVER THOUGHT THIS THROUGH THAT FAR?? It's mostly just a great relief to think of him understanding the situation and not having to worry about how he'll accept it. (There are still other things she can and will be concerned about, but this alone is a weight off of her shoulders.) By now she's coasting on being as openly affectionate for him as she feels like being, and fuck the haters!!
Honestly, at this point, Beatrice's feelings for Raven don't influence her feelings for Battler or vice versa, so the fact that it's nevertheless a thing is mostly just uncomfortable for her. IF SHE THINKS ABOUT IT TOO MUCH, she freaks out a little bit, so she generally avoids doing so :') I... I can have everything I want if only I believe!!!! IN THE GOLDEN LAND, EVERYONE CAN LOVE AND COEXIST PEACEFULLY.
How you feelin' about what you did in Erika's heart, Battler
Battler's not really sure how to feel about it?? Because on the other hand he does pity Erika a lot, especially for the way Bern and Lambda treat her, so cutting her away from Bern's influence can only be a good thing, right? Buuuuut then she brought up a lot of points about it in endgame that have him feeling a lot more unsure. Because yeah, he did go ahead and change a thing in her heart with no regard for her wishes, and that's not cool. And maybe impulse decisions like that might have unforeseen consequences who even knows??? But despite the unsurefaces, like he told Erika he doesn't really regret it. What's done is done and hopefully it won't lead to Erika fucking up his heart when she gets a chance :'D
As for what happened in room S THAT WAS NOTHING IT'S NOT LIKE I GOT HURT BY BEING CARELESS AGAIN AND I CERTAINLY DID NOT FREAK OUT AT ALL HAHA NOPE
