@HxHexa Pardon me, but I believe this chapter is missing Page 1 with a "portrait" of Eve
Continuing from last chapter, it's such a nice feeling to catch up with the original group again, and see them interact in the absence of our main duo too. It's downright heartwarming to see them all pour out their feelings of love after having their humanity taken away from them.

Judging by what Lou said about her sisters, perhaps Kate's initial belief about Louise's influence is incorrect: that is, Louise's personality isn't based on some hidden aspect of Lou's personality, and is instead Lou's "impression" of/yearning for an older sister she'd like to live with. Wouldn't be surprising, we already kind of had a precedent with Stella being based on Candy's childish circus persona.
In fact, it actually goes some ways to explain the way Louise fawned over Lou. It's like Lou's dream of a doting and commanding older sister, but since Shadows don't have "siblings" as a frame of reference, the feeling is replaced with "loving her Doll/face" instead (ignorance for health care notwithstanding).
So with Louise now having to reckon with Lou not being her "object" and having to figure out their relationship all over again, maybe "siblings" is the path forward?
