As Hood arrives at their meeting spot, she can't help but feel flustered. She just asked a guy out, and he's meeting up with her
Dreadnought: Apologies! I took a while. Hood: N-No! I didn't wait long...
They begin hanging out as they converse, learning about what they went through back then
Hood: So, how many sirens have you slain in battle? Dreadnought: About a few hundred. I got used to fighting a long time ago. Hood: *Smiles brightly* That must be going well for you! So... how would you feel if I... Dreadnought: ?? Hood: If I... I... forget it... *Inner thoughts* (So embarrassing...!!!) *Back to conversing* I-I am going to the restroom. I'll be right back!
She runs off towards the restroom to cool off as she attempts to reason with herself

Hood: Stay calm...! It's just me and Dreadnought... alone... together... Ugh... my feelings for him really are love... and I refused to admit it to myself...! Okay... calm down, Hood. It's not how a lady reacts to admitting to herself she loves someone... and they don't know it yet...
Meanwhile, with Dreadnought...
Deeadnought: It... feels good to talk to someone about this... But... why do I suddenly feel... warm when I'm near her... do I... do I like her?
Dreadnought couldn't help but feel conflicted. He just felt heartbreak by Jean Bart, yet he... is falling for another
??: Dreadnought?!
Dreadnought: Oh God... hey, Jean Bart...

Jean Bart: I... it's been a while. Dreadnought: It... has... why are you here? Jean Bart: ... Can we talk? Dreadnought: Why the change of topic? Jean Bart: Forget that, please. Let's talk.
With a hint of hesitance, he reluctantly let's her
Jean Bart: It's been what, 4 years since we last talked? Dreadnought: ... Yes... it has... Jean Bart: When I... when I rejected you, I... felt like I made the wrong decision... by chance... are you still single? Dreadnought: What are you getting at?
