It's fine for survivors and hunters to be friends, but not for them to love each other. But all Aesop keeps thinking of are Joseph's blue eyes, while all Joseph keeps thinking of is the kiss he has accidentally had with Aesop, and the moan Aesop gives...
But they have only 'interacted' with each other in Aesop's room at midnight, without any light, on the first night of Aesop's arrival. They haven't said anything, yet they have already fallen in love with each other.
They're in love with someone, but they don't know who they're in love with.
And what happens after they finally know each other? They successfully begin their relationship - but there's always something that gets into their way. Even without Eli being jealous of Joseph.
Aesop gets Joseph a gift - he asks Vera to make him a bottle of Euphoria - for Christmas. He has never thought that a Christmas gift would totally change their lives. As Eli's prediction to the future (predicted in the first few weeks after Aesop's arrival) says:
' ...Joseph acts as if nothing's happened, because he really thinks so, and he's living in his little world happily. Aesop's depressed, he's staying in his room and never communicating with any one of us... '
And it's all the Host's fault.
No matter survivors or hunters, no one can help them. This incident matters with the Host of the manor - and anything that concerns the Host is almost impossible to intervene.
The solution to this only lies in Aesop's, and most importantly, Joseph's hands. But with Joseph forgetting Aesop, and Aesop being banned to go see Joseph, what can help them?
...a selfie, perhaps?
"Look, Joseph, that's Aesop."
Joseph suddenly feels as if something he's lost is returning to his memory. He looks at the selfie, and hears his dialogue with somebody echoing in his head.
'Can I give you a smoochie smoochie?'
'No, Joseph, everyone living in the manor are here, and we'll be seen!'
'How mean! Oh, I don't mean that you're mean, lovely Aesop~'
...Aesop?
