Dana：起床啦。

Dana: Rise and shine.

 

Jill：*呵欠*早上好。

Jill: *yawn* G'mornin'.

Dana：虽然已经是中午11点了。

Dana: It's 11 a.m., though.

 

Jill：对我来说这就是周末……以及每一天的早晨。外面情况如何了？

Jill: That's morning for me on the weekends... and any other day. How's everything outside?

 

Dana：仍然乱哄哄的，但至少城里已经部署了警力，解决了绝大部分问题。

Dana: Still noisy, but forces have been deployed to take care of most of 'em at least.

 

Jill：怎么做到的？

Jill: How so?

 

Dana：Zaibatsu Corp的总裁去请求”任何人”协助制止暴走的白骑士。

Dana: Zaibatsu Corp's President is pleading with "anyone" to stop the rogue White Knights.

 

Dana：邻市的警力得以迅速部署，并压制了大部分造反者。

Dana: Neighboring city forces were deployed quickly and have subdued most of the opposition.

 

Dana：有报道说白骑士们……冻结了。如同莫名其妙地陷入了石化。

Dana: There have also been reports of White Knights just... freezing. Like they were petrified somehow.

 

Jill：听你说的，仿佛是有什么神祗突然决定让一切恢复秩序似的。

Jill: You make it sound like some god suddenly decided to put everything in place.

 

Dana：好吧，我要为已经没有子弹从这栋建筑内外飞来飞去感到高兴。

Dana: Well, I'm just glad no bullets are flying in and out of the whole building.

 

Dana：当然，外面仍然有坏家伙在，而且并不是真有多安全，但总比昨晚要强多了。

Dana: Sure, there're still some bad apples out and it's not really safe yet, but it was worse last night.

 

Dana：说起来，似乎还有市民自发组织武装，到处寻找白骑士并施以私刑。

Dana: There also seems to be a civilian force lynching any White Knight they spot.

 

Dana：于是问题就不只是白骑士了，连普通人也躁动了起来。

Dana: So not only are the White Knights a problem, regular folks are on edge too.

 

Jill：(不知道Sei是否还好……)

Jill: (I wonder if Sei is okay...)

 

Jill：我们是不是该为Gil感到担心？

Jill: Should we be worried about Gil?

 

Dana：那孩子知道怎么照顾自己。

Dana: That kid knows how to take care of himself.

 

Dana：我敢肯定……无论他正在干什么，都不会有性命之忧。

Dana: I'm sure that... whatever it is that he's doing, he's safe.

 

Dana：我甚至敢说无论他现在在哪儿，都要比呆在这里更安全。

Dana: Dare I say even safer wherever he is than here.

 

Jill：但愿如此。

Jill: I sure hope so.

 

Jill：我们今天还营业吗？

Jill: Are we gonna work today?

 

Dana：不，外面闹得太严重了。这周日就休息吧。

Dana: Nah, things are too nasty right now. Let's take the Sunday off.

 

Jill：哦，好吧。

Jill: Oh, alright.

 

Dana：要不要由我护送你回公寓？

Dana: Say, do you want me to help you get to your apartment?

 

Jill：那样再好不过了，实在是感激不尽。

Jill: Actually yeah, I'd appreciate that.

 

Dana：那好，等我把门窗锁好，我们就出发。

Dana: Okay then. Let me lock things up and we'll go.

 

Dana：顺便在路上把午饭买好。

Dana: We'll grab something for lunch on the way.

 

Jill：好主意。

Jill: Sounds good.

 

Dana：好——吧，我们到了。

Dana: Aaaaaaaaand here we are.

Jill：家啊，甜蜜的家。多谢了。

Jill: Home sweet home. Thanks a lot.

 

Jill：嘿，Boss，要一起消磨点时间吗？

Jill: Hey Boss, wanna hang out for a bit?

 

Dana：嗯？

Dana: Hm?

 

Jill：就是说，来罐啤酒，放松一下……主要是为了感谢你保护我。

Jill: Yeah, grab a Beer, chill out for a bit... Mostly to thank you for helping me.

 

Dana：好啊，反正我也没什么事可做。那就来吧。

Dana: Well, I don't have much to do anyway. So yeah, sure.

 

Dana：我之前跟你说过，你该找时间邀请我来你的公寓做客，对吧？

Dana: I did tell you you should invite me to your apartment sometime, didn't I?

 

Jill：哦，对，你说过。

Jill: Oh, yeah. You did.

 

Dana：我有点担心啤酒会导致什么别的事情。

Dana: What worries me a bit is that Beer always leads to something else.

 

Jill：导致喝更多啤酒？

Jill: To more Beer?

 

Dana：我本打算说，"导致我们中有人挨一记碎桌摔"。

Dana: I was gonna say, "To one of us going through the Spanish announcers' table."

 

Dana：但我们在这儿应该没问题的。

Dana: But I think we're safe here.

 

Jill：那就进来吧。

Jill: Come on in, then.

 

Dana：打扰了……

Dana: Excuse me...

 

Jill：要来一根吗？

Jill: Want one?

Dana：抱歉，我不抽烟，但别在意我，你就抽你的。

Dana: Sorry, I don't smoke. Don't mind me though, smoke if you wanna.

 

Jill：谢了。

Jill: Thanks.

 

Dana：最近天冷，你打算怎么过冬？

Dana: Say, how is the chilly weather treating you?

 

Jill：温度确实越来越低了，但没有什么是被炉和暖气解决不了的。

Jill: It gets cold from time to time but nothing the kotatsu and the heater can't fix.

 

Jill：哦，对了，Boss，你并不喜欢天冷吧？

Jill: Oh right, Boss. You're not very good with the cold, are you?

 

Dana：你了解我的……

Dana: You know it...

 

Jill：你没把夹克穿过来。

Jill: You didn't bring your jacket here either.

 

Dana：嗯，我昨天去酒吧时把夹克脱在家里了。

Dana: Yeah, I left it at home when going to the bar yesterday.

 

Dana：昨天还不算太冷，而且我也没预料到会在酒吧过夜。

Dana: It wasn't that cold and I didn't expect to spend the night at the bar.

 

Jill：你要穿件毛衣之类的吗？

Jill: Would you like a sweater or something?

 

Dana：哦，别介意这个。

Dana: Oh, don't mind me.

 

Jill：我要让你穿。我以前买过这件连帽衫，但对我来说尺寸太大了。

Jill: I insist. I have this hoodie from some time ago and it was too big for me.

 

Dana：那你为什么还买？

Dana: Why buy it then?

 

Jill：因为它太便宜了！

Jill: It was dirt-cheap!

Dana：好吧……

Dana: Right...

 

Dana：等下……你—你是从哪儿搞到这个的？

Dana: Wait... w-where did you get this one?

 

Jill：忘了。很久以前的跳蚤市场。为什么要问这个？

Jill: Dunno. Some flea market ages ago. Why?

 

Dana：没什么，只是这很像我多年前穿过的那件。

Dana: Nothing. It's just like one I had many years ago.

 

Jill：那件衣服后来怎么了？

Jill: What happened to it?

 

Dana：穿得太久，于是就……扯破了。

Dana: Too much use, it just... ripped.

 

Jill：了解了……

Jill: I see...

 

Jill：你想要的话可以把这件穿走，反正我也用不上了。

Jill: You can keep it if you want, I never use it anyway.

 

Dana：嗯……以后再说吧。

Dana: Um... we'll see.

 

Jill：说起很多年这事，你今年多大了，Boss？

Jill: Come to think of it, how old are you, Boss?

 

Dana：我永远十七岁！

Dana: I'm eternally seventeen!

 

Jill：既然你非要这么说的话。那是十七岁外加多少年？

Jill: Fair enough. Seventeen plus how much?

 

Dana：十七岁外加如果你知道的话，我就会把你的舌头切掉。

Dana: Seventeen plus I'd have to cut your tongue if you knew.

 

Jill：……那算了。

Jill: ...alright.

 

Jill：我们来换个更舒心的话题吧。

Jill: Let me go change into something more comfortable.

 

Dana：慢慢想。

Dana: Take your time.

 

Dana：……

Dana: ...

 

Fore： ……

Fore: ...

Dana：……

Dana: ...

 

Dana：嘿，Jill，我看到那边的黑色毛团儿上有两只蓝色的眼睛在闪啊闪的。

Dana: Say Jill, there's a blue-eyed mass of black fur glaring in my general direction.

 

Jill：嗯？哦，那是Fore，他只是在对来访者保持警觉。猫毕竟是猫嘛。

Jill: Hm? Oh, that's just Fore. He's just wary of any new visitors. Cats will be cats, I guess.

 

Jill：他很快就会和你熟起来的。给他点时间适应就好。

Jill: He'll warm up quickly though. Just give him time.

 

Dana：他长得还真特别，黑猫长着蓝眼睛。一般情况下都是绿的。

Dana: He's unusual-looking. Blue eyes on a black cat. They usually have green.

  

Jill：嗯，多奇怪啊，对吧？

Jill: Yeah, weird, huh?

 

Jill：起初我以为眼睛发蓝是因为他还小，但这颜色一直没变过。

Jill: At first I thought they were like that because he was small but they never changed.

Jill：你养宠物吗，Boss？

Jill: Do you have any pets, Boss?

 

Dana：我在老家养过一头熊。

Dana: Back at home we had a bear.

 

Jill：啊，我知……什么东西？

Jill: Ah, I se-... what?

 

Dana：老Bosco，他赶跑入侵者的本事比狗强多了。

Dana: Good ol' Bosco. He kept intruders away better than any dog.

Jill：知—知道了……

Jill: R-Right...

 

Dana：嗯？这张照片还真是罕见。

Dana: Hm? This picture here isn't something you see everyday.

 

Jill：怎么？我看上去傻呼呼的照片？

Jill: What? Me taking such a sappy pic?

 

Dana：不，我指的是一张在打印纸上的镶框照片。这太……怀旧了。

Dana: No, a framed picture on printed paper. It's so... vintage.

 

Dana：照片上的人是谁？

Dana: Who are these?

 

Jill：那是……呃……

Jill: That's... um...

 

Jill：右边的是Lenore，我的……前女友。左边的是Gabrielle，她的妹妹。

Jill: The one on the right is Lenore, my... ex-girlfriend. The one on the left is Gabrielle, her sister.

Dana：嗯。这是最近拍的还是……？

Dana: Huh. Is this pic recent or...?

 

Jill：事实上，是3—4年前拍的。

Jill: Actually, that one's from 3-4 years ago.

 

Dana：……

Dana: ...

 

Dana：你看起来没什么变化嘛。

Dana: You look exactly the same.

 

Jill：我才27岁而已。你指望能有什么变化？所以人们才说只有小孩才会变老。

Jill: I'm only 27. What did you expect? That's why they say kids are the ones that get old.

 

Dana：我以为是最近才拍的，因为很少有人会这样公开展示前任的照片。

Dana: I thought it was recent because you don't usually see people displaying pictures of their exes so openly.

 

Dana：……更何况还是打印起来镶框装饰的。

Dana: ...let alone a printed and framed one.

 

Dana：也就是说你们是和平分手的吗？你说她是你前女友的时候甚至还犹豫了一下。

Dana: Did you two break up on good terms, then? You even hesitated a bit when calling her your ex.

 

Jill：*叹气*这么说吧，我们都说了一些难听的话，于是关系就这么结束了。

Jill: *sigh* Let's just say that everything ended with both of us saying mean things.

 

Jill：……最后我冲出了她的家，还沿路摔坏了几件东西。

Jill: ...and me storming out of her house, breaking a couple of things on the way out.

 

Jill：我们没有正式分手……而且我对她还有感情。

Jill: We never broke up formally... and I guess I still have feelings for her.

 

Jill：我只是……离开了。从此再没说过一句话。

Jill: I just... went away, haven't said a word since.

 

Dana：真的吗？我……很难想象你能做出这样的事。而且照片里的你看上去很开心。

Dana: Really? It's... hard to picture you doing such a thing. And you look so happy in the pic.

 

Dana：那为什么还要把她的照片摆出来？

Dana: Why have her pic out like this then?

 

Jill：我只是忘不掉Alma对我说过的一段话。

Jill: I just couldn't get my mind off something that Alma said to me.

 

Jill：她提到了怀念有人依偎着自己时的温暖……

Jill: About missing having the warmth of someone else pressed against your side...

 

Jill：把他们当成枕头，把彼此的香水气味混在一起。

Jill: Using them as a pillow, mixing your perfume with theirs.

 

Jill：把头枕在他们胸口，一边倾听他们的呼吸，一边让他们轻抚你的头。

Jill: Putting your head in their chest, listening to their breathing as they pet your head.

 

Jill：一边感受他们的陪伴，注视，和保护，一边香甜地睡去。

Jill: Dozing off knowing they're there, watching you. Protecting you...

 

Jill：我不知道该怎么表述，我只是感到一阵怀念……然后就只剩痛苦。

Jill: I don't know. I felt nostalgic... then miserable.

 

Jill：……

Jill: ...

 

Dana：我会……把照片放好的。

Dana: I'll... just put this away.

 

Dana：……

Dana: ...

 

Jill：我一直想着道歉，但我总觉得已经太迟了。

Jill: I've been meaning to apologize, but I feel like it's too late now.

 

Jill：我每次出门，都会隐约害怕会在街上遇到她。

Jill: Whenever I go out, there's this fear in the back of my head that I'll meet her in the street.

 

Jill：我根本不知道该如何再次面对她，更别提和她说话了。

Jill: I just don't know if I could face her again. Let alone talk to her.

 

Jill：……我会惊慌失措的。

Jill: ...I'd be a mess.

 

Dana：道歉这件事永远不会太迟的，Jill。

Dana: It's never too late to apologize, Jill.

 

Jill：可能是这样吧。

Jill: Maybe.

 

Dana：嗯？桌子上放着的是什么？

Dana: Hm? What's that on the table?

 

Jill：……！

Jill: ...!

 

Dana：看上去像是个信……

Dana: Looks like an enve-...

 

Jill：什么都不是！别看！现在，请把它给我。

Jill: It's nothing! NOTHING! Now, please give that to me.

 

Dana：……封。好的。

Dana: ...lope. Alright.

 

Dana：我什么都没看到，别担心。

Dana: I saw nothing, don't worry.

Jill：……

Jill: ...

 

Jill：不—不管怎样……咱们去拿啤酒准备开喝吧！

Jill: A-Anyway... Let's grab some Beers!

 

Dana：带路吧。

Dana: Guide me.

 

Dana：天呐，你的啤酒可真不少。

Dana: Damn, you have lots of Beer.

Jill：没办法，BTC给了我一张可以用来购买他们的酒精饮料的点数卡，使用时还有折扣。

Jill: Well, the BTC gives me discounts and a point card I can use every time I buy their alcohol.

 

Jill：这样的话，啤酒就成了我能买到的最便宜的饮料。

Jill: With that, Beer is actually the cheapest drink I can get.

 

Dana：酒吧里的啤酒和这些有什么不同吗？

Dana: Is there any difference between the drinks at the bar and these?

 

Jill：与商店里出售的相比，酒吧里的啤酒更容易上瘾，味道更好，酒劲更足。

Jill: The drinks at the bar are more addictive, flavorful and also stronger than the ones they sell in stores.

 

Jill：此外，酒吧里的啤酒更双倍IPA一些，而现在喝的则更加Pilsner。

Jill: And besides, the one in the bar is more of a Double IPA. This one is more of a Pilsner.

 

Dana：请用我能听懂的语言来讲。

Dana: In English, please.

 

Jill：现在喝的颜色更淡，味道也更淡。

Jill: This one's lighter in color and lighter in flavor.

 

Dana：不懂，这啤酒尝起来并不像蛋。

Dana: Dunno, it doesn't taste like a lighter to me.

 

Jill：*噗*

Jill: *pffffft*

 

Dana：这个啤酒是不是用……呃……你们在酒吧里用的最基本的液体叫什么来着？

Dana: Is this one made with that... um... what was the name of the base liquid you use at the bar again?

 

Jill：Nutriogenic Dichometrical Lydogenol，简称NDL。

Jill: Nutriogenic Dichometrical Lydogenol, or NDL.

Dana：那原本是营养剂之类的东西，对吧？

Dana: It was a supplement or something, right?

 

Jill：那原本是以充当水的替代品为目的而制造的实验性液体，在当年Maiden Kiss污染供水系统之后被提上日程。

Jill: It was an experimental fluid they created to replace water when the Maiden Kiss polluted water supplies.

 

Jill：后来人们发现污染的效果只是暂时性的，因此NDL从未得到大规模生产。

Jill: The effects of pollution turned out to be temporary, so NDL never went into mass production.

 

Jill：但BTC还是将这一原料投入了酒吧的经营中。

Jill: But the BTC still commissioned it for use in bars.

 

Dana：我们现在喝的也是用它做的？

Dana: And is this one made with it?

 

Jill：我看看……没错，就标注在边上：NDL和玉米淀粉。

Jill: Let's see... yup, here it is, near the end: NDL and corn starch.

 

Dana：玉米淀粉？

Dana: Corn starch?

 

Jill：玉米淀粉被用于充当稳定剂，如果我没记错的话。罐装饮料需要这些。

Jill: It serves as a stabilizer, if I remember correctly. They need it for packaged drinks.

 

Dana：知道了。我还突然意识到一件事。

Dana: I see. And I just realized something.

 

Jill：什么事？

Jill: What?

 

Dana：你是个书呆子，Jill。

Dana: You're a nerd, Jill.

 

Jill：罪名成立。

Jill: Guilty as charged.

 【Stella没有来送朗姆酒后的对话】

Jill：如果你想喝点其他的，我还有别的酒类收藏。

Jill: There's my alcohol collection if you feel like getting anything else.

 

Dana：比如那边的酒瓶吗？

Dana: Those bottles over there?

 

Jill：我买不起昂贵的冰箱供着它们，因此只能摆在眼皮底下。

Jill: I can't afford a fancy fridge or whatever for them so I have to put them in plain sight.

 

Jill：我觉得如果有什么酒类权威在场的话，他肯定会因我的反酒罪或类似的罪名捅我一刀。

Jill: I'm guessing if some authority on alcohol came in here, he'd stab me for crimes against beverages or something.

 

Jill：无论如何，那些瓶子里的酒大多仍然能喝。

Jill: Anyway, many of them are still drinkable.

 

Jill：如果你有兴趣的话，我可以给你倒点带到过酒吧去的苦艾酒。

Jill: I could get you some of the Absinthe I brought to the bar if you want.

 

Dana：遗憾的是，我并不是奥斯卡·王尔德式的角色，请把我想象成少女版的西奥多·罗斯福。

Dana: I'm not an Oscar Wilde kind of person, sadly. I'm more of a Theodore Roosevelt girl.

 

Jill：我的壁橱里倒是有个泰迪熊。但我不觉得你能把它当酒喝。

Jill: I have a teddy bear on my closet. But I don't think you can drink it.

 

Dana：不了，我不喝那个……等等，你把泰迪熊藏在壁橱里？

Dana: Nah, that's what I-... wait, you do?

 

Jill：我并不以绒绒博士为耻，只是我碰巧养着只猫。

Jill: I'm not ashamed of Doctor Fluff but it just so happens that I have a cat.

 

Jill：我不想让泰迪熊的填充物撒得满地都是，所以就塞进壁橱里了。

Jill: And I don't want the bear's fillings spilled all over the place.

 

Dana：哦……

Dana: Oh...

 

Dana：总之，有啤酒就够了，别担心。

Dana: Anyway, Beer's fine. Don't worry.

 

Jill：那就好。

Jill: If you say so.

 

Dana：话说回来，你这些收藏都是怎么来的？

Dana: Where did that collection come from anyways?

 

Jill：把这些称为"收藏"可能有点不太严格，我觉得。

Jill: Calling it a "Collection" is too generous, I think.

 

Jill：我是从爷爷那儿继承下来的。他的遗嘱上只写着由我来继承这些。

Jill: I got it from my grandpa. He made a will where the only thing stipulated was that I got them.

 

Dana：呵，那可真不错。

Dana: Heh, that's sweet.

 

Jill：这几年来我已经喝过不少了。现在有一半的瓶子里装的只是染色的水而不是酒。

Jill: I've already downed some of it over the years though. Half of them have colored water instead of alcohol.

 

Dana：我觉得你得是个专家之类的才能看出其中的区别。

Dana: I guess you'd need to be an expert or something to notice the difference.

 

Jill：差不多吧，毕竟我得确保水的颜色能对得上号。

Jill: Yeah, I make sure the water's the right color though.

 

Jill：如果你想尝下这些酒的味道的话，随时说一声。

Jill: Bottomline, if you wanna taste anything from it, let me know.

 

Dana：你对我太好了。

Dana: You're too kind.

 【Stella送来朗姆酒后的对话】

Jill：我还留着那瓶朗姆酒呢。你要来点吗？

Jill: I still have that bottle of rum somewhere around. Do you want some of it?

Dana：你不陪我喝点吗？

Dana: Will you have some too?

 

Jill：不，我可不想喝。

Jill: Not really, no.

 

Dana：那就别提这事了。我不会让你独自一人喝啤酒的。和朋友一起喝酒可不该那样。

Dana: Then leave it like that. I'm not letting you drink Beer alone. That's not how drinking with friends works.

 

Jill：你把我当朋友吗，Boss？

Jill: Do you consider me a friend then, Boss?

 

Dana：我怎么会不把你当朋友呢？

Dana: Why wouldn't I?

 

Jill：说不清，毕竟你是Boss。我一直不太确定。

Jill: Dunno, what with being my boss and all. I was never too sure.

 

Dana：好吧，如果你还对此有所怀疑的话：没错，我把你当成自己最好的朋友之一。

Dana: Well, in case you had any doubts: Yes, I consider you one of my best friends.

 

Dana：此外，你和Gil一直对工作勤奋负责，我也只不过是个名义上的Boss。

Dana: Besides, you and Gil are always so diligent and responsible that I'm boss in name only anyway.

 

Jill：那真是太好了。

Jill: That's good to know.

 

Dana：顺便，你居然真的把我的海报挂在屋里了，我是真没想到。

Dana: On a side note, it surprises me you kept that poster of me in the room.

 

Dana：你甚至还把它挂在最显眼的位置。

Dana: And even more that you hung it in plain sight.

 

Dana：这张海报我只是当成一个玩笑送给你的，你是知道的吧？

Dana: When I gave it to you, it was more or less a joke, you know?

 

Jill：这没让你感到不适吧？

Jill: Does it make you uncomfortable?

 

Dana：如果这都没让你感到不适的话，我怎么会感到不适呢？毕竟海报上是我的脸啊。

Dana: If it doesn't make you uncomfortable, why would it make ME uncomfortable? It's my own face.

 

Dana：但我仍然不明白你为什么要这么干。

Dana: I'm still wondering why you did it though.

 

Jill：除了能够填充墙面的空白之外，我也说不出什么理由。我也觉得这么挂着很有意思。

Jill: Aside from filling an empty spot in the wall, I don't really know. I thought it was funny too.

 

Jill：我觉得这就像是有人给了你……该怎么说呢。

Jill: I guess it's like if someone gave you... dunno.

 

Jill：就好像有人给了你一个Y 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  具造型的奖杯之类，然后你就会把它摆在那儿，这样它就能打开话匣子。

Jill: A d 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  do-shaped trophy or something and you had it there as a conversation starter.

 

Jill：不过也没什么人来这里做客，所以这么干其实没什么意义。

Jill: Although no one comes here anyways, so it's kinda pointless.

 

Dana：没什么人？没什么激情澎湃的夜晚吗？

Dana: What? No steamy nights of passion?

 

Jill：大概……从一年前就没有过了。我不太想聊后来发生的事。

Jill: Not since... a year ago I think. And I rather not talk about what happened then.

 

Dana：有人伤害了你吗？如果有的话，我可以为你以牙还牙。

Dana: Did someone hurt you? Because if they did, I can go dish out the pain.

 

Jill：不，没那种事。只是另一种意义上的糟透了。

Jill: No, nothing of the sort. A different kind of mess.

 

Jill：令人不适到极点的糟糕。"因种种原因无法继续X 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  交"那种程度的糟糕。

Jill: Uncomfortable mess. A 'not being able to have sex for reasons' mess.

 

Jill：但我很高兴有你为我撑腰。

Jill: Glad to know you have my back though.

 

Dana：朋友就该如此。

Dana: That's what friends are for.

 

Dana：等等，你刚才谈到海报的时候，把它比作Y 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  具造型的奖杯……

Dana: Wait, you talk about the poster and compare it to having a di 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  o-shaped trophy...

 

Dana：你是想说我长了张Y 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  具一样的脸吗？

Dana: Did you just call me D 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  ldo Face?

 

Jill：朋友就该如此嘛。

Jill: That's what friends are for.

 

Dana：……

Dana: ...

 【喝了两罐以上啤酒后的对话】

Dana：嘿，Jill。你是从哪儿捡到这个叫Fore的小黑球的？

Dana: Hey, Jill. Where did you get that black Fore ball?

Jill：这个嘛，就和捡到任何黑猫的故事大体相同，他是只流浪猫。

Jill: Well, as with any black cat or house cat in general, he's actually a stray.

 

Jill：搬到这里之后没多久，我就在这栋楼附近的小巷里找到了他。

Jill: I found him in the alleys near the building. Not long after I moved here, I think.

 

Dana：嗯，我知道了。

Dana: Ah, I see.

 

Jill：不过当时的场景还挺壮观的。他被一大群狗 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  逼到了角落里，但还没有狗敢靠近。

Jill: It was quite the sight though. He was cornered by all these dogs but they were keeping their distance.

 

Jill：他坚守着自己的阵地，一边发出嘶嘶的警告声，一边竭尽全力抓挠附近的狗。

Jill: He was holding his ground, hissing and scratching as much as he could.

 

Jill：附近有个装炸鸡的桶里进了不少雨水，于是我就把水泼在了狗身上。

Jill: There was a fried chicken bucket nearby that had some rain water in it, so I threw the water over the dogs.

 

Jill：狗逃开之后，我以为那只猫的母亲应该就在附近，所以就离开了。

Jill: They ran and I figured the cat's mom would be nearby, so I left.

 

Jill：我走着走着就注意到人们都在朝我的方向看，结果发现那只小脏猫一直在跟着我。

Jill: Then I noticed people looking in my direction as I walked. Turns out the little shit started following me.

 

Dana：于是你就把他带回家了。

Dana: So you brought it home.

 

Jill：一开始，我本打算给他找个新家的，但是……

Jill: At first, I wanted to see if I could find him a new home, but...

 

Jill：无论我什么时候回家，他都会来迎接我，这简直让我的心都要化了，所以他就留下来了。

Jill: Having him welcome me whenever I came back was just too much for my heart, so he ended up staying.

 

Dana：这就是命运啊，小姑娘。

Dana: It was destiny, girl.

 

Jill：不过他刚来的时候还很可爱的，和现在这个睡在桌上的肥毛团可不一样。

Jill: When he came, he was so cute though. Not like the fat mass that's sleeping on the table.

 

Fore： 嘿，你也已经不是青春少女了，有点自知之明。

"Fore": Hey, you're not a spring chicken yourself, you know.

Dana：……

Dana: ...

 

Jill：……

Jill: ...

 

Dana：嚯……

Dana: Oho...

 

Jill：……啐，我居然真的在别人面前这么做了。

Jill: ...shit, I actually did that in front of someone else.

 

Dana：嚯嚯嚯嚯……

Dana: Ohohohoho...

 

Jill：那—那个……

Jill: A-Anyway...

 

Dana：别想岔开话题，你经常像那样替你的猫说话吗？

Dana: Don't "anyway" me, do you normally speak for your cat like that?

 

Jill：……差不多吧。

Jill: ...maybe.

 【只喝了一罐后的对话】

Jill：嘿，Boss，跟我说实话吧。

Jill: Hey Boss, be honest with me here.

 

Dana：什么的实话？

Dana: About what?

 

Jill：Gil到底是谁？

Jill: Who's Gil exactly?

 

Dana：你是指什么？

Dana: What do you mean?

 

Jill：你知道我是什么意思。他到底是什么人？

Jill: You know what I mean. Who the fu 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  k is he?

 

Dana：哦，至于那个嘛。

Dana: Oh yeah, that.

 

Dana：我对他的身份有了一些猜想。

Dana: Well, I have a couple of ideas.

 

Dana：我可以肯定Gil曾亲身经历过h 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  k的B 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  动。

Dana: I know for certain that Gil was in the H 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  g  【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  ng riots.

 

Dana：而且他在叛逃之前是防暴部队的一员。

Dana: And he took part in the anti-riot force before defecting.

 

Dana：这个本该是通向他真实身份的线索，但是……

Dana: That should give me a clue as to who he is but...

 

Jill：但是……？

Jill: But...?

 

Dana：迄今为止，我只找到了一个符合这些条件的叛逃者，而那个人至少有4年时间没离开过香港。

Dana: So far, I've only found out about one such defector, and he didn't leave Hong Kong for at least 4 years.

 

Dana：我还发现Gil曾在同一时间段内身处英国和法国。

Dana: I also know for certain that Gil was in England and France during that time frame.

 

Dana：总是这样，每当我认为自己找到了关于他真实身份的线索时……

Dana: And it's always like that, when I think I have a clue as to who he is...

 

Dana：就会有其他信息出现，否定证据的真实性。

Dana: Something else comes up that contradicts the evidence.

 

Dana：那家伙可真是令人头疼。

Dana: That guy's troublesome.

 

Jill：嗯，多少有点吧。

Jill: A bit, yeah.

 

Jill：*叹气*不知道Gil是否还好。

Jill: *sigh* I wonder if Gil's alright.

 

Dana：你担心他吗？

Dana: You worried about him?

 

Jill：你说得好像我是个没感情的机器人一样。

Jill: You make it sound like I'm some emotionless robot.

 

Dana：你有些时候很难被看透。

Dana: You can be hard to read.

 

Dana：但我是不会那么担心Gil的，关于他，有三件事我可以确信。

Dana: I wouldn't worry about Gil so much though. There's three things I know for certain about him.

 

Dana：第一：他能照顾好自己。

Dana: First: He can take care of himself.

 

Dana：第二：你可以真心信任他。

Dana: Second: You can sincerely trust him.

 

Jill：第三呢？

Jill: And third?

 

Dana：他极为憎恶甜椒。

Dana: He absolutely hates bell pepper.

 

Jill：有这种事？

Jill: He does?

 

Dana：我甚至见过他因为接触过甜椒而拒绝掉一整盘菜。

Dana: I've seen him even reject food that has been in contact with it.

 

Jill：哈，像小孩一样……除非是因为过敏之类的。

Jill: Man, what a baby... unless he's allergic or something.

 

Dana：他并不对甜椒过敏。

Dana: He's not.

 

Jill：哈，那纯粹就是孩子气了。

Jill: Man, what a baby.

 

Jill：你是怎么遇到这么奇怪的家伙的？

Jill: How did you meet such a guy?

 

Dana：他……就那么出现在酒吧门口了。

Dana: He... showed up in the door of the bar.

 

Jill：他……怎么着？

Jill: He... what?

 

Dana：好吧，就在Robert与浮空药剂的事故发生之后，还没过多久。

Dana: Well, it was shortly after the whole incident with Robert and the levitation potion.

 

Jill：(嗯……"浮空药剂"。)

Jill: (Right... "Levitation potion".)

 

Dana：那天没什么生意，然后他就……出现在了酒吧门口。

Dana: It was a slow day and he just... showed up at the bar.

 

Dana：我给他倒了一杯，但他说自己没带钱。

Dana: I offered him a drink, but he said he didn't have money on him.

 

Dana：我……不能就那么把他抛下不管，所以就请他喝了几杯。

Dana: I... couldn't leave him alone, so I pretty much gave the drinks for free.

 

Dana：喝了两杯之后，他开始失声痛哭。

Dana: And after a couple, he broke down crying.

 

Jill：他……哭了？

Jill: He... huh?

 

Dana：我不知道他到底做了什么，但他为此非常后悔。

Dana: I don't know what he did, but he was really, REALLY regretting it.

 

Dana：他想要重来一次的机会，而我告诉他只要肯改过自新，我就会给他一份工作。

Dana: He wanted a second chance or whatever and I told him if he could wash himself I'd find him a job.

 

Dana：接下来真是活见鬼，第二天的他看上去就完全不一样了。

Dana: And I'll be damned, he looked totally different the next day.

 

Jill：见鬼……

Jill: Damn...

 

Dana：我尽力了，但是挖不出他的底细。

Dana: I tried and failed to find out anything about him.

 

Dana：因此我决定按表面价值接纳他。根据他作为一位员工的表现来判断他的为人。

Dana: So I decided to take him at face value. I'd judge him from what he did as an employee.

 

Dana：除了那些时不时发生的突然逃班之外，他一直是个表里如一的忠诚员工。

Dana: And aside from the occasional sudden escapade, he's been as loyal as loyal gets.

 

Dana：我以实际行动回报他的努力，时不时为他善后……有些时候还得在字面意思上为他遮住屁股。

Dana: I return the favor in kind, covering his ass from time to time... sometimes literally.

 

Jill：让我感到惊讶的是你居然这么轻易就接纳他了。

Jill: What surprises me is that you took him in so easily.

 

Dana：我能照顾好自己，而且我一直留心盯着他。

Dana: I can take care of myself and I always kept an eye on him.

 

Dana：除此之外，在Robert那件事发生之后，我就再也不能轻易无视掉处于绝望中的人了……

Dana: And besides, after the whole Robert thing I couldn't ignore someone that desperate so easily...

 

Jill：我能理解……

Jill: I see...

 

Dana：你仅凭自己就让酒吧焕发了活力，你察觉到了吗？

Dana: You've made the bar more lively yourself, you know?

 

Jill：有这种事吗？

Jill: How so?

 

Dana：当然，多亏你争取到的那些回头客。

Dana: Well, with the regulars you've earned of course.

 

Dana：比如那个金发巨 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】  R黑客。我总是记不住她的名字。

Dana: Like that blonde titty hacker. I can't remember her name.

 

Jill：Alma？

Jill: Alma?

 

Dana：我本打算说Armitage。

Dana: I was gonna say Armitage.

 【喝了四罐以上后的对话】

Jill：没错，她确实身材火辣，这个不服不行。

Jill: Well, she's hot, I'll give her that much.

 

Jill：总的来说她是个非常善良的人，但是真可恶啊，她太性感了。

Jill: She's also a nice person in general, but damn, she's hot.

Dana：你还好吗，Jill？

Dana: Are you alright, Jill?

 

Jill：我很好，怎么？

ill: Yeah, why?

 

Dana：只是……很少会看到你这么公开地说别人性感。

Dana: It's... weird to see you say so openly that someone's hot.

 

Jill：有什么不能说的？就连你也能看出她身材火辣啊，Boss。

Jill: What? Even you can see she has a hot body, Boss.

 

Dana：……我确实无法反对啦。

Dana: ...you'll find no objections here.

 

Jill：我的意思是，我是真的有过和她开 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】个房间然后……这种想法。

Jill: I mean, I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought about taking her to a room and...

 

Jill：……

Jill: ...

 

Dana：Jill，你是不是喝高了？

Dana: Jill, you sure you aren't drunk?

 

Jill：是的。我是指我确定我没喝高。我是想说……

Jill: I am. I mean I'm sure I'm not. I mean...

 

Jill：*清嗓子*

Jill: *ahem*

 

Jill：但是这种念头我只会留在脑子里。我不认为自己能在恋爱关系中应付得了她。

Jill: But those are thoughts I leave to myself. I don't think I could handle her in a relationship.

 

Jill：她的……标准非常奇怪。

Jill: She has... weird standards.

 

Jill：此外，她的X 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】取向还直到不能行。

Jill: That and she's as straight as straight gets.

 

Jill：但她终究是个可爱的人，有她成为常客是我的福分。

Jill: She's still a lovely person, though. That she became a regular is a blessing.

 

Dana：对于这一行而言，每一位常客都是福分。

Dana: Any regular is a blessing when you get down to it.

 【喝了三罐后的对话】

Jill：她是个好女孩，你知道吧？

Jill: She's a nice girl, you know?

 

Dana：我不觉得她年轻到了还能被称为"女孩"的程度。

Dana: I don't think she's young enough to be called a "girl".

 

Jill：一位"永远17岁的女孩"做出了这样的评价。

Jill: Says the "Girl Who's Eternally Seventeen."

Jill：不管怎么说，她就是很可爱。

Jill: In any case, she's really lovely.

 

Jill：听她聊起她的家庭时，她的语气中总是充满了爱意。连表情都能绽放出光辉。

Jill: When you hear her speak of her family, she speaks with such love. Her face just brightens up.

 

Jill：说实在的，我多少有点嫉妒她能和家人保持这样亲密的关系。

Jill: It makes me kind of jealous that she has such a close relationship with them, to be honest.

 

Dana：你和家人的关系不好吗？

Dana: You have bad relations with your family?

 

Jill：也没什么不好的，但我和父母，姨妈之外的亲属都很疏远。

Jill: Not bad, but I'm not exactly close to anyone aside from my mom, dad, and aunt.

 

Jill：说起Alma，我真心希望她能找到一个可以平稳度日的好男人。

Jill: But back to Alma, I'm really hoping she finds a nice guy to settle with.

 

Jill：看到他那么渴望找到好男人，我就不由得希望她的愿望能够早日成真。

Jill: I mean, she's so bent into finding one, I can't help but want her to succeed.

 

Dana：嗯，我懂。

Dana: Ah, I see.

 

Dana：你的常客里还包括了那个从事X 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】工作的机器女孩。

Dana: There's also that s 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】x worker robot girl.

 

Jill：啊，Dorothy。

Jill: Ah, Dorothy.

 

Dana：我对她很感兴趣。这些年来我见过不少X 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】工作者了，但她看起来相当轻佻。

Dana: She intrigues me, though. I've seen lots of  【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】ex workers over the years, and she seems pretty giddy.

 

Dana：并不是说她喜欢这份工作，而是她在以一种儿童般的兴奋在对待它。

Dana: It's not that she likes her job, but rather that she takes to it with such childish excitement.

 

Jill：我也多少注意到了这个。但是，Lilim原本就很奇怪。

Jill: I've kinda noticed that too. But then again, Lilim can be weird.

 

Dana：你这么想吗？

Dana: You think?

 

Jill：Lilim以一种非常独特的逻辑运作。

Jill: Lilim operate in some really foreign logic.

 

Jill：比如说，他们并不具备我们对死亡的恐惧。

Jill: I mean, they don't really share our fear of mortality.

 

Jill：即便身体遭到摧毁，他们的意识也早已在一个共同的源头处做好了备份。

Jill: Even if their bodies are destroyed, their minds are already backed up in the collective source.

 

Jill：如果失去了一条手臂，他们可以重新接上或是换条新的。

Jill: If they lose an arm, they can reattach it or replace it.

 

Jill：在某些情况下，他们甚至连疼痛都感受不到。

Jill: Depending on the circumstances, they might not even feel pain at all.

 

Jill：并不是说他们不具备像人类一样的情感，比如恐惧或爱，但他们终究……不太一样。

Jill: It's not like they haven't attained human-like emotions like fear or love, but they are... different.

 

Jill：非要说的话，就是类似于不同的文化。

Jill: Like a different culture, if you must.

 

Dana：嗯……我没这样想过。

Dana: Hm... I didn't see it that way.

 

Jill：除此之外，Dorothy是DFC—72型。这个型号的功能是"社会互动"之类的。

Jill: Aside from that, Dorothy is a DFC-72. It's a "Social Interactions" model or something.

 

Jill：如果Lilim尽到了自己的义务，就能让身体直接获得正向强化。所以……

Jill: Lilim get positive reinforcement straight from their bodies if they're fulfilling their main purpose, so...

 

Jill：我猜每当她处于一段有意义的或“有挑战性的”社会互动之中，她都能获得内在的驱动力。

Jill: I'm guessing she gets a built-in push whenever she's in a meaningful or "challenging" social interaction.

 

Dana：有意思。

Dana: Interesting.

 

Dana：不过，光是"Lilim"这个名字听起来就够奇怪的。

Dana: The name "Lilim" is a bit weird though.

 

Jill：奇怪吗？

Jill: It is?

 

Dana：人们可能会把他们称作"机器"或"玩偶"，毕竟"Lilim"并未传达出机器人的形象。

Dana: You'd expect them to be called "Bots" or "Dolls", but "Lilim" doesn't convey the image of automatons.

 

Jill：友情提示：Lilim把"机器"或"玩偶"的称呼视为侮辱。

Jill: Just a tip. "Bots" and "Dolls" are considered slurs by them.

 

Jill："机器"这个称呼多少像是在骂他们愚蠢，而"玩偶"则相当于骂他们是假货。

Jill: "Bot" is akin to calling them retarded and "Doll" is like calling them fake.

 

Dana：感谢你的建议。

Dana: Thanks for the advice.

 

Dana：先不说这个，你知道他们为什么会被称为Lilim吗？

Dana: That aside, do you know why they're called Lilim?

 

Jill：据我所知，那是因为他们诞生自一个更成熟的人工智能，其名为Lilith。

Jill: As far as I know, because they all come from a bigger AI called Lilith.

 

Jill：在犹太人的民间传说中，Lilim是Lilith的后代。

Jill: And Lilim are Lilith's offspring in Jewish folklore.

 

Dana：哦哦哦，酷。

Dana: Ooooooh, cool.

 

Dana：嘿，说起名字，为什么你不喜欢被人称呼全名？

Dana: Hey, speaking of names, why don't you like being called by your full name?

 

Jill：我不知道你在说什么。

Jill: I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

Dana：别装傻。

Dana: Don't act stupid.

 

Dana：你刚调到这里时，我有一次叫你Julianne，当时你瞪我的眼神就像要把我撕成两半。

Dana: Back when you first transferred, I called you Julianne and you almost tore me a new one with your glare.

 

Jill：……

Jill: ...

 

Dana：没错，就是这种眼神。

Dana: See? Like that.

 

Jill：这也不是什么大不了的秘密，只是那种说出来就会觉得太蠢的破事罢了。

Jill: It's no big secret, but it's one of those things that feels silly when you say it out loud.

 

Dana：告诉我吧。

Dana: Try me.

 

Jill：好吧……你有没有看过"模特战士Julianne"？

Jill: Well... did you ever watch "Model Warrior Julianne"?

 

Dana：没看全过，但我妹妹特别痴迷于这次重播。

Dana: Not all of it, but my little sister's a big fan of the reruns.

 

Jill：我上小学的时候，对那部动画喜欢得不得了。

Jill: Back when I was in elementary school I was a HUGE fan of the show.

 

Jill：我收集了所有的周边。从玩偶到服装到饭盒都没放过。

Jill: I had everything. From the dolls to the costumes to the lunch boxes.

 

Jill：就算这部动画出尽了一切能出的周边，我还是把它们集齐了。

Jill: It didn't help that it was one of those shows that got strapped literally everywhere.

 

Dana：我看过其中几集，确实是不错的动画！

Dana: I saw a couple of episodes once. They were really nice!

 

Jill：远远超过了"不错"的水准！那部动画的主角是一位能够变身为装甲魔法骑士的模特。

Jill: It was beyond nice! The show's about a model who can transform into an armor-clad magic knight.

 

Jill：她与诞生于贪婪和虚荣之中的恶魔作战。

Jill: She fights demons born from greed and vanity.

 

Jill：那部动画展示了Jules有多么厌恶自己的工作，因为她的工作会招引敌人。

Jill: How the show presented Jules hating her job because it invited enemies.

 

Jill：但她仍然会尽力成为好的榜样，并从中获得慰藉。

Jill: And yet still found solace in trying to be a role model...

 

Jill：天呐，主角甚至都不是孩子。Julianne是个成人，变身也会让她变年轻。

Jill: Hell, the main character wasn't a kid. Julianne was an adult that became younger when transformed.

 

Jill：作为一部儿童动画，它的野心很不一般。

Jill: I'd say it was a pretty ambitious kid's show.

 

Jill：即便以如今的标准来看仍是如此！

Jill: Even by today's standards!

 

Jill：光是那些敌人设定就已经很有挑战性了，那都是字面意思上关于身体形象的美的标准所面对的问题。

Jill: Just the fact that her enemies were literally issues dealing with beauty standards of body image...

 

Jill：设定的难度简直高得一比。

Jill: Challenging as f 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】ck.

 

Dana：嚄，这下你可兴奋起来了。

Dana: Whoa, you got excited there.

 

Jill：问题就出在这里了。当年我实在是太痴迷于Jules。

Jill: And that is the problem. Back then I was obsessed with Jules.

 

Jill：我唱动画里的歌，穿得和主角一样，甚至能把全剧倒背如流。

Jill: I sang the songs, dressed like her. I could even recite full chapters.

Dana：我总感觉你现在也能做到。

Dana: Something tells me you still can.

 

Jill：……那就跑题了。

Jill: ...that's beside the point.

 

Jill：当我还在上小学的时候，这样没什么不好，但是到了中学之后……

Jill: It was nice while I was in elementary school, but then I went to middle school...

 

Jill：真想不到，十几岁的熊孩子都是一群混 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】球。

Jill: And what a surprise, tweens are jack 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】asses.

 

Jill：他们想方设法为我过去所做的事而嘲笑我。

Jill: They went out of their way to tease me about the things I did back then.

 

Jill：我并不是憎恨Jules，只是对那群小混球的怨恨一直持续至今。

Jill: I don't hold it against Jules. I always hold my grudge against those fu 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】kjobs.

 

Dana：真是艰辛的过去。

Dana: Sounds rough.

 

Jill：你知道那个年龄段的大多数女孩都在为自己的大腿烦恼吗？

Jill: You know how most girls worry about their thighs at that age?

 

Jill：让我烦恼的却是那群小王 【屏～蔽～＿（：з」∠）＿】八蛋通过哼唱动画主题曲来嘲弄我。

Jill: I worried about jerkasses singing the theme tune of the show mocking me.

 

 Jill：就这样，他们每次管我叫Julianne或Jules，我都会本能地做出消极回应。

Jill: Anyways, everytime someone calls me Julianne or Jules, I instinctively react negatively.

 

Jill：巴普洛夫会为我感到骄傲的。

Jill: Pavlov would be proud of me.

 

Jill：我从来不谈这个，只是因为回想起来，这一切简直蠢得要命。

Jill: I never talk about it because I find the whole thing too silly in retrospect.

 

Dana：就算这样，它的影响还是一直残留到了今天。不过这样也没什么不好。

Dana: And yet, it affects you even today. There's nothing wrong with it though.

 

Dana：你这么做其实挺合理的。

Dana: It's actually kinda reasonable.

 

Jill：但愿如此。

Jill: I sure hope so.

 

Jill：说起童年的事，你以前是个什么样的孩子呢，Boss？

Jill: Come to think of it. What kind of kid were you, Boss?

 

Dana：我小的时候，总是在找茬和比我大的孩子打架。

Dana: When I was a toddler, I was the kind to always fight with kids bigger than me.

 

Dana：到了青春期，我就已经成为了韦氏词典定义那般标准的"肤浅的混蛋"

Dana: Then puberty happened and I became the Merriam-Webster definition of "shallow jerkwad".

 

Dana：直到16岁那年，我才意识到自己过去有多蠢，于是我做出了改变，成为了今天的自己。

Dana: Around the time I turned 16, I realized what an idiot I was and went on to become who I am today.

 

Dana：关于从12岁到15岁那段时间的经历，我们还是少谈为妙。

Dana: And the less I talk about those years from 12 to 15, the better.

 

Jill：那好吧。

Jill: Fair enough.
