Code Empress: You don’t have a medical license!

The fact that it’s cut content, Add makes a reference to something that happened prior to updates ( I believe when he was first added?) in his current victory lines in Southern Gates.

I’d like to believe Add is referring to the trailer he had with Eve in a 1v1 but again everyone in that time would’ve recognized him even in Hamel of what he did previously, if they don’t remember his face but they’d definitely remember his attack mostly Eve.

But because again story revamps and such, meaning such story portions of this interaction is cut and I haven’t found this detail at all yet I’m trying hard enough to dig it up.

who knows? I just want my complete Nasod trio to be complete of Add, Raven and Eve’s up to 4th paths.

This will be in safe keeping of my Library.

It's more than plausible that Eve can overload herself emotionally. With negative emotions I would assume that the result would be similar to a breakdown in a person, since people are what she was designed to be like more so than any other Nasod. With positive emotions I feel like it's more similar to having inexplicably heightened energy until she calms down.

I don't think Code: Esencia route Eve has overloaded her emotions before tbh. I think she could come close should something really crazy happen but I think she's pretty neutral and chill most of the time. She seems to me to be able to keep track of her emotions and talk aboug them with someone before it comes close to overloading her. She would just see keeping up with her emotions as necessary maintenance I think??? Like, it's just part of her routine to fill Rena or Elesis or someone in on how she's doing that day. I think she sees it as being a very basic and simple thing without quite realizing JUST how difficult it actually is for some people to do that. Esencia could only overload if something very extreme happened very suddenly.

Code: Ultimate route Eve seems to be very mood based. Like her actions are dictated more by her mood than anything else. Unlike Sariel she's still capable of feeling emotion, but unlike Esencia she appears to lack the ability to keep herself neutral so to speak. She seems very obvious and easy to read when it comes to her emotions while Esencia is better able to set them aside. In a way that would make it seem like Ultimate feels more than the other two. It also makes her less predictable and consistent. Which could be twisted into an advantage in battle, but also likely puts a strain on her relationships. Which would likely fuel her fear of being alone again.

I feel like Ultimate is generally irritable and quick to anger but also very quick to forgive, as a way of keeping her friends with her. I also feel like she's afraid that if her friends change then there will come a time where they stop understanding when she forgives them and judge her solely on her temper. She seems to me to be the type that tries to keep her negative thoughts and insecurities to herself but still lashes out at people. But, being a person that bottles things up until they explode, when Ultimate inevitably does explode, I don't think it'll end well for anyone involved. But I do think it would take a long while of bottling for her to do so.

Sariel of course doesn't feel emotions. My daughter shut them away and then used excess power from the emotion core conflicting with Code: Battle Seraph to destroy her enemies and slowly destroy herself in the process.

After @glimmedible asked about the reasoning behind Doom Bringer route Add's job names, I was reminded of when I looked up Esencia.

Esencia is essence in Spanish. The interesting part of that is that Esencia route Eve is EXACTLY what a Nasod should be. Because with Adrian's Nasods in Elysion, there's a consistent disregard for their autonomy and individuality. But its stated Esencia never "fixed" Oberon or Ophelia or any of her others even though she messed some stuff up because she was still learning how to make them individuals. Because the flaws Eve accidentally created became character quirks. So she sees absolutely nothing wrong with them. She is even shown to treat Moby and Remy as individuals with their own likes/dislikes, opinions, and insecurities. And she sees no problems with them being like that, even though they're technically just drones. She is shown to care for more than just Nasods on multiple occasions. And she sees Elysion and decides that she doesn't want her people to be isolated. She has made friends outside of her own kind and believes every Nasod should have that opportunity. She is an individual and allows the Nasods she creates to be their own individuals. And Nasods being a people made up of multiple unique individuals is exactly what they're supposed to be. But part of building character and a unique/individual worldview is interacting with those who are different.

The white cat let out a low yowling noise. Eve looked at it in surprise. The fur along its back was beginning to rise and its ears turned toward the back of its head. The other three cats responded immediately. Their eyes focused on the bushes. Next to her, Add started to stand.

A large dark grey cat with barely visible black stripes on its legs appeared from the bushes. At first Eve didn't understand why the other cats responded to it the way they did but when she scanned the cat, she found injuries. She rose quickly to her feet, "Its hurt." There was a cut oozing blood on the side that wasn't facing her and one of its ears had a small tear. Otherwise it was just bruised.

"Where's the other one?" Add muttered. His eyes scanned the bushes.

"Other one?" Eve repeated.

Add nodded, "Ginger. Dynamo said she had kittens."

Eve frowned. She wasn't aware Dynamo communicated with Add. She didn't need to suggest looking for the cat. Add was already walking away but he paused long enough to pet the injured cat and say something she didn't catch to it. She hesitated but inevitably followed him. If something hurt that cat then the ginger one Add mentioned was no doubt also in danger.

Add seemed to know exactly where he was going. He left the park entirely, skirting down an alleyway. Eve followed him through a second alley. At the end there was another one on the right that led to a busier street. To the left was a small alcove. Boxes were everywhere, mostly in stacks, though some were clearly knocked over. Garbage was strewn about, all leading to a large tipped over bin near where the alcove and alleyway met.

Laughter echoed from behind one of the box stacks of the alcove. With a quick scan Eve identified two boys. One was around Elsword's age, while the other seemed closer to Elesis'. She also recognized the fading life signs of an adult female cat. The younger of the two boys held hit by the scruff of its neck.

"Hey!" Add snarled. He stalked into plain view of the two boys, leaving Eve little choice but to follow. She sighed quietly. This wasn't going to end well for those two boys. She noticed the cat the boys held was ginger, though it didn't appear to be carrying kittens.

"What?" The older boy turned while his companion shrank against the wall.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" If anything, the older boy's cocky sneer only enraged Add more. That confirmed to Eve that the cat the boys clearly tormented was the one they were looking for. Unfortunately, attempting to save the mother cat's life was highly unlikely to succeed. Because of that conclusion, she set dealing with the two boys and finding the cat's kittens as higher priorities.

"Add." Eve skirted around him and placed herself between him and the two boys in front of them. She was certain Rena would prefer it if they didn't get into a back alley fight with a couple boys, even if the odds were clearly in their favor. Not to mention the possible repercussions should Add cause too much damage to them.

Add hissed but stopped moving. He crossed his arms over his chest.

Eve held Add's arm just to be sure he wouldn't go anywhere. She turned to the boys, "What are you two doing?"

"None of your business," the older boy sneered. "You and your friend can run along now."

Eve's eyes narrowed, "Do not assume when you have no knowledge of what you're speaking of." She glanced at the cat, still held up by the scruff in the younger boy's hands. Her gaze returned to the older boy, "That cat has done nothing to you. Why did you torment it?"

"We're just having a bit of fun." The boy's features turned feral and he cracked his knuckles, "Now run along before I rough up that pretty little face of yours."

Eve didn't blink. Add was more of a threat to her than this boy was and he had yet to act in a way that would cause her any damage. "So you're cruel? That cat did nothing to you yet you tormented her to the point of dying when she has kittens to take care of."

"Kittens?" The older boy repeated.

Eve frowned. Why would this human seem so excited at the prospect of kittens? Did he intend to harm them to? Her eyes narrowed, "You're disgusting. Leave here. Now. And don't harm another innocent creature for as long as you live."

"You're trying to tell me what to do?" The older boy scoffed, "That's funny. This isn't any of your business. This is your last warning, princess."

"I am a queen." Eve corrected calmly. "You're warning holds no meaning to me. I've faced down much worse than a spoiled boy." She lifted her head so that she was looking down on him despite being shorter than him. "However. I would suggest you heed my warning and leave immediately."

"What're you gonna do? Talk me to death?"

"I do prefer not to fight those who cannot defend themselves, yes," Eve nodded.

The boy laughed. He stepped forward menacingly, "Cannot defend themselves, huh? We'll have to see about that."

"Very well." Eve stepped out from between Add and the two boys and let him go. She meant it when she said she preferred not to fight those who couldn't defend themselves. Add had no such standards. She turned her attention to locating the kittens. Moby pinpointed a nest like area behind one of the boxes in the back corner of the alcove

I'm like 90% sure Eve has anxiety. The first actual emotion we see from her is doubt. Not only that, its SELF doubt. Then she gets wrapped up in a war where she watches Nasods get turned against each other with the Alterasia plants. Her next actual emotion is loneliness when she wakes up to find all her friends essentially the equivalent of dead. But hey! Theres hope. She brings the core back online and tells it to rebuild her people. She uses all of her power for that and needs a nap but thats okay. Except oops. Adam is bad at communication and fucked all of that up because he didnt tell anyone why he was making this army and he went and hurt people in the process. And now she is well and truly alone. The only Nasod left on Elrios. With a savage looking redhead boy telling her he will be her friend. I also think that her anxiety is very apparent in the Ultimate and Sariel routes. They design themselves into battle Nasods to protect a kingdom they haven't even built yet.

Also, its very interesting that the first solid dynamic we see between her and the El Search Party is her looking after Elsword. Now part of that is learned. Eve doesn't quite have a concept of what friendship really is when they first pick her up. She doesn't even seem to be familiar with the word. Aisha and Elsword are the most obviously close in the El Search Party. Aisha is always going after Elsword and saving his ass and yelling at him for being dumb. Aisha's reasons for that are because she's tsundere. Eve's reasons are because she doesn't have an exact idea of what friendship is and because Elsword is the one it seems she's most likely to lose should something go wrong. Rena and Raven are sensible. Aisha is pretty sensible and only likely to get hurt when she follows Elsword in. It's also stated when the Glitter Vanguard explodes in the palace entrance that Eve was the only reason they made it out of there. She's shown to get after Add when he does something to hurt someone, more so than any other character in the game. When Elsword merges with the El Eve tells him that just because she said she would respect his decision doesn't mean she would accept his sacrifice. She's also shown to be uncomfortable with the idea of sacrifice in general. Unless of course. Its her thats doing it. At which point, its shown that if she deems it necessary she would sacrifice everything she is. She advises certain courses of action throughout the game, that are often designed to minimalize casualty. She prioritizes the safety of those with her, not just the El Search Party, when things go wrong in Velder. In the Sander end scene she crushes Karis under Adam's fist when Add decides it would be a good idea to take her on himself. When Rena collapses in Feita, Eve has knowledge of her condition that would only be possible by being with Rena. She's shown to be concerned about Raven, even when first meeting him, despite his very distinct distrust of her. While she isnt leaping around trying to please him she is also conscious of his triggers and doesn't bring them up.

I've said this before but Eve is shown scolding Elsword and Add on multiple various occasions but its interesting to me that the only time its Eve that scolds them as opposed to Elesis or Aisha or one of the others, is when what they're doing/saying is likely to hurt themselves or someone else. Otherwise she has very little to say about their behavior. With Add, she doesn't just scold him when he's causing harm to Nasods or putting them in danger. She also scolds him in Lanox when he starts shooting rapid fire interrogating questions at Gloria and Darkmoon and making them cry. She also scolds both him and Elsword in the end of dungeon dialogue of Phantasmal Geyser for peeping in the girl's bath. She is ready to execute them. Also, Add and Elsword, who are the two most prone to getting themselves into a situation they can't get out of, are the only two characters she is shown to scold and come to the aid of most often.

All of that being said, since Eve is still learning emotion and all of its complexities, I'm not sure she is completely aware of the source of her anxieties. She knows that when her friends/other people around her are put in danger or hurt in some way, she worries about them and depending on the severity, she may even feel powerless. In order to prevent herself from feeling uncomfortable (or possibly even doing something stupid to protect them), she takes steps to prevent them from getting hurt. She knows she cant keep them out of danger, but she will keep them from getting hurt badly enough that she might lose them.
