Summary:
Alicia and Welkin are doing some springtime scouting through the mountains to verify that the path is wide enough for the Edelweiss when Welkin realizes a fast-moving blizzard is coming through. The duo takes shelter in an abandoned cabin, and they get to talking about their families. Alicia reveals that she is an orphan and that her cake boss (I know, I was also surprised that Alicia wasn’t boss) made her wear that red bandanna. Now it reminds Alicia that she is a baker first, and a soldier second. Welkin also talks about how his father took them on many vacations and drove Welkin to love nature.
Girls love talking about feelings, and before you know it, Alicia’s going for Welkin’s crotch. At first Welkin plays hard to get, but when Alicia doesn’t take the bait and spoon him, he gets pretty forceful… because there is an Imperial deserter outside. Mikhail Weber thought he could get ahead in the army, but then got shot while trying to desert. Mikhail’s got an half-armed grenade, and Welkin can’t shoot Mikhail or else the grenade will explode. However, Alicia shows her dere dere side and negotiating skills, caring for Mikhail in his final moments. Before dying, Mikhail reinserts the pin into the grenade, and in return Alicia and Welkin bury his body. Like some kind of anime Haley Joel Osment film, the Imperials thank our Gallian scouts by letting them escape with their lives, and Alicia and Welkin are impressed to see that the faithful Squad 7 waited 16 hours for them to return from their date.
Reaction:
One has to suspect that Welkin knew about the snowstorm and the cabin beforehand, and used it as a date opportunity. Everything was going so well, until that damn Imperial deserter showed up for some Imperial cockblocking! Still, the message of the episode came through loud and clear; when you want to have sexy time with your lady friend, skip the beetles and move straight into hot and heavy discussions about sea slugs. Also, I bet Alicia didn’t need that blanket at all, seeing as how she has Solar Hands.
The best part about this episode is realizing that that cabin owner is going to come back during the summer and find a grave in his front yard, blood all over his favorite blanket, tank tracks through his back yard, and bullet holes all along the walls of his living room. I guess he should have bought himself a No Tresspassing sign after all!

So, why do sea slugs get lonely?
It’s a trick question; they don’t.
Hahaha– small observation Kabitzin– but the first thing I thought when I saw your avatar was “Oh my gosh, Osaka’s holding a Valkyrian shield and lance!”
Then I looked closer. Shame I did. xD It’s still a great and funny pic though. =)
OMFG!!!!!!!!! Hidden powers YES!!!!!!
Nah, even if the Imperial soldier didn’t stumble in, Alicia would still be getting nowhere with Welkin since Welkin is faithful and would never desert his beetles. fishes, lizards, deer poop, and of course sea slugs.
I may disagree with TJ: If the soldier didn’t show up, the situation could have become, how should I put it, more… romantic. You know, hug, kiss, more. And sea slugs wouldn’t stop Alicia.
pssh!! SLUGZ would beat BLOODZ any day! =3
(btw, which subs are you dl-ing now? I think I may convert as well =D)
Edit: btw again, that pic of yours with Welkin’s crotch, the last scene from that pic reminds me of that caption you made along time ago that went something like this: “I scratched my balls with this hand!” Classic!
