After what must have only been a few minutes (even though it felt like an eternity in heaven to you), V2 breaks the hug.
"APOLOGY: I apologise for ending the hug.
EXPLANATION: Emotion Simulator is experiencing overload and producing previously unseen error messages.
EXPLANATION CONTINUED: I must analyse the error messages, and attempt to reinforce emotion simulator.
REQUEST: While I do so, please continue to enjoy your food."
He locks up again.
You grab your food, get up, and walk towards the cliff.
The sunset really is beautiful, isn't it? You've never paid it much mind before, but now it captivates you.
For the first time in the history of hell, today wasn't awful. It wasn't even bad.
It was great.
As soon as you're finished with that train of thought, you hear V2 whirring back to life.
"CONCLUSION: I love you."
