## Synopsis

> Ha! Have all the women in Gustave castle gone mad while I've been away? My foolish sister marching into a man's chambers at the crack of dawn. And a nurse who dares to scold her lord.
>
>

Giovinetta is extremely relieved to see that Johannes has returned back to normal, before they are interrupted by Winfried, who arrived yesterday morning alongside the Indridson's wedding delegates. Memories of yesterday return as a flood, overwhelming her until she faints. Johannes carries her into his room, and dismisses the other two. Griselda protests, but Winfried drags her out into the hallway and kisses her. Rousing from her unconsciousness, Giovinetta asks if Johannes recalls the previous night, which he responds to with an intense, unreadable gaze.

## Summary

Giovinetta almost embraces Johannes in her relief upon finding her brother instead of the devil after the previous night. She timidly asks about last night, before she is interrupted by their younger brother, Winfried, who peeks out from behind Johannes. He ridicules Giovinetta's stuttering and informs her that he arrived alongside Indridson's wedding delegates yesterday morning, congratulating her on her engagement. At this, Giovinetta shakily recalls her hapless prayer to the Ducommun's devil in hopes of preventing her second arranged marriage and her unintentional union with the devil. As she faints, Johannes rushes to grab her from hitting the floor.

Johannes carries Giovinetta into his room with Winfried and Griselda in tow, where he requests to be left alone with his sister. Griselda adamantly protests at this impropriety, but Winfried drags her out of the room with him. In the hallway he reminds her of her position, followed by a prompt kiss. Thinking to himself, he is sure nothing will happen between a stable rock like Johannes and his sister, especially given how there has been no talks of Johannes taking any lovers or fathering illegitimate children in his 20 years, where even their father is surrounded by such rumors.

> With a rock like that, what could possibly happen between those two? They're *twins* after all. They'd have to be out of their minds.
>
> - Winfried musing to himself after leaving Johannes and Giovinetta alone

Giovinetta awakens to Johannes's concerned look, and asks if he recalls the previous night that he shared together with her as the devil. Johannes responds with an intense, unreadable gaze; Looking as if he remembered everything.

## Trivia
