Subaru:  "You gonna do it?"
gpt
Rem:  "No, I just thought it was very impertinent of me. You may be a coworker, but you are also Lady Emilia’s savior, so our positions are different."
human
Subaru:  "That kind of stiff attitude will just crimp my style… Wait, that’s what you think?"
gpt
Subaru:  Her statement, that she couldn’t treat him as a simple coworker because they stood apart, stuck in his ears. Seeing Rem raise her eyebrows at the question, Subaru began roughly tugging on the hair on his head. "To be honest, I’m not good at picking up on stuff like that. Sorry to…make you worry about it."
human
Rem:  "No, I am simply saying it cannot be helped. Please forget about it."
gpt
Subaru:  "I can’t just let that go so easily. People are petty like that. Now, then…" Subaru put a hand to his forehead, lowering his eyes as he looked at Rem.

Subaru:  She seemed not so much regretful about her slip of the tongue as she seemed chastened by Subaru’s admonition. That helped him decide what to say. Subaru lifted a finger as he made a suggestion. "Okay, I’ll give you my one condition. If you’re okay with that, I’ll totally forget what you just said."
gpt
Rem:  Rem closed her eyes briefly before nodding with a look of resignation. "Condition…you say? I understand. I will hear you out."
human
Subaru:  Subaru made a strained smile, not intending to draw out that big a reaction, and then said… "If you fix up my hair and give it a little brushing, I’ll forgive you."
gpt
Rem:  "…"
human
Subaru:  Unable to take Rem’s silence in the face of his counteroffer, Subaru raised his voice. "The silence is kind of painful to me here, you know."
gpt
Rem:  Rem’s pale blue eyes reflected Subaru in them as she sighed a little. "Lady Emilia already pointed this out, but you desire very little, Subaru."
human
Subaru:  "That’s weird. I thought we’d be making up instead of you getting all shocked like that…"
gpt
Rem:  "As I have heard from Sister how you gave her perverted looks when you were alone, I was rather resigned to something less decent."
human
Subaru:  "Slander’s a horrible thing! !" He was scared that Ram’s gossipy statement would make sparks fly with Emilia in short order. He’d have to establish a direct lifeline with Emilia before that could happen. Subaru was still plotting countermeasures against Ram in his head when Rem grasped the hem of her skirt.
gpt
Rem:  "I accept your condition—I shall go along with your idea." And so, with a prim and proper bow, she accepted his suggestion for smoothing things over.
human
Subaru:  Her performance drew a laugh out of Subaru as he looked down at his hands. "Hey, I wrapped up shortening the legs while we were talking. I did it right, huh?" The work complete, Rem took hold of the trousers, acknowledging his work…
gpt
Rem:  "…Yes, you did. You get full marks for sewing. But much like yourself, I do not think it will be of use, Subaru." …then poured cold water all over him.

Subaru:  "Huh?!"
