Kanaya seeks counsel from the Knight of Time, who (possibly accidentally) lets slip some good advice...

...and their relationship finally starts to blossom.

You put into motion a cunning plan in your SEVENTH CONVERSATION, in which you have attached a MISSION CRITICAL TEXT DOCUMENT.

We get a treat I didn't expect - a copy of the legendary document, ConversationWithAVeryStupidGirl.Txt!

It's incredible. Kanaya presented it to Rose as a transcript of a future conversation, subtly doctored to trick Rose into following a time loop.

What it actually is is an obviously doctored transcript, where Kanaya Tactically Omits every awkward interaction, and edits Rose's responses with her typing quirk.

Kanaya isn't trying to hide her edits - which makes this document less of a clever trick, and more of a genuine attempt by Kanaya to communicate something to Rose.

TT: i am the queen of books. TT: I Am Also Infuriatingly Aloof TT: And Difficult To Engage With TT: When Maybe All The Other Person Wants To Do Is Maybe To Try To Be My Friend

"I Want To Get To Know You."

TT: it's hard to keep track with all your time nonsense. TT: Am I Being Sincere Here TT: In Retrospect It Will Probably Seem Unlikely To My Current Conversational Partner

"I Am Trying Really Hard To Understand You."

TT: because i am basically in love with him, you are right. TT: It Is At This Point I Admit To Flushed Longings For The Ignoramus Who Likes Terrible Films TT: I Am Doing This Only To Bother You

"When You Joked About Liking John It Bothered Me. You Can Probably Figure Out Why."

TT: Why Would I Even Be Saying Things Like This TT: Of Course TT: I Have Been So Foolish TT: It Is Because I Am Trolling You TT: I Wonder Where I Could Have Possibly Gotten The Idea To Do That In The First Place

"I Know We Got Off On The Wrong Foot, But It Was Mostly Because Of Time Loop Nonsense."

ConversationWithAVeryStupidGirl.Txt is so ironic, it's tipped over into sincerity - and it's asking a very simple question.

"I Like You. Can We Start Again?"

In their next conversation, Rose provides an answer.
