Can I read any of the books here? I can read all of them? Oh, thank you! I'll be careful! I won't mess them up!
Ah, sorry, please don't go touching my book. It might bite your hand if you do. No, really, I'm not joking, I'm serious. Look! I even have to tie it shut like this.
Doctor, do you know where the library is? I asked someone just now, but they were talking too fast. It was hard to understand.
Skyfire, um, Skyfire, wait for me! Uwwhh, please don't walk so fast... I promise I won't run off halfway this time, I promise!
I like reading, but I like hanging out with everyone too! It makes me so happy when I can be with the people I like. Also, don't be fooled. I'm really good at sporty stuff! Especially climbing trees. I can climb super high!
I got some new inspiration after talking to Miss Eyjafjalla today! She's very well-researched on environmental geology. Thank goodness my group's research wasn't stopped because of my accident. Heheh! If I get results this time, I can reapply to the Institution to resume my studies.
Skyfire is an alumna from my university. She graduated soon after I entered since she skipped a year, but even still, she did look after me... Oh, speaking of! She's also the one who introduced me to Rhodes Island! It's thanks to her I'm receiving treatment here.
Um, I suppose I've been following you around, haven't I? I mean, I feel really at ease when I'm around you, so I just unconsciously... A-Am I annoying you, Doctor? Do you want me to go away?
Doctor, this is for you. I found it on the way back, and so many more pretty-looking stones just like it! But, well... that was before I realized I'd gotten separated from the others. Mm? The ore chunk on your desk from before? I put that there too, yes. Did you like it, Doctor?
Nnh... mmmmnnh... there! Ah, Doctor! Sorry! Did I wake you up? There was a bug on your head, so I just, um—did it hurt? I can shush it better!
Thank you for helping me move all these books! Just leave them here, please. Oh, my codename is Mint. What's yours? Doctor? Wait, so you're the Doctor? Skyfire was telling me about you!
Wow... incredible! Everyone's so incredible!
Mint likes hiding in her secret bases and reading in silence, and she likes fooling around together with her friends. She likes to climb trees. She likes adventures. She likes every last new and novel thing. She might tiptoe as she follows behind her friends, and she might suddenly get distracted by something and go bounding off instead. Should you ever receive a small present from her, be it as little as a misshapen piece of ore with mud still stuck to it, take it. Accept it. Without a doubt, it's something she's fond of, and regardless of how, she'd like for you to share in it too.
With her backgroundin the Victorian Institution for Higher Studies, and being introduced to Rhodes Island by Operator Skyfire, many Operators who had not yet met Mint could not help but have certain preconceptions about her. Regardless, once they met the new Victorian for themselves, they quickly realized she was not an elite in the vein of Operator Skyfire. This isn't to say Operator Mint isn't outstanding; rather, she and Skyfire are two completely separate sorts. She looks quiet and proper at first glance, but in truth she bursts with a curious spirit and a lively step. Compared to her senior Skyfire, a cream-of-the-crop Caster who gained her qualifications from school and promptly graduated, Mint values her research in geological fields much more. It's no surprise that when the time came to decide where she wanted to go, Mint chose to stick around and further her studies, continuing her pursuit of cutting-edge geological research. It was on such a pivotal field investigation that she came to contract Oripathy.
The new Feline girl has a book that'll bite you. Once Mint came to Rhodes Island, the rumor swiftly followed, spreading like wildfire amongst the younger Operators. Mint does indeed hold an Arts unit, one fashioned into the form of a book, that together with her staff helps her to make full, free use of her Originium Arts. Mint usually has the 'book' bound with a specially made tie, so as not to cause any accidents. It's as the rumors say—the book will bite people. If someone randomly flips its pages, they'll very likely set off its built-in retaliative mechanisms. It won't cause any life-threatening harm, but according to Mint, 'Its bites hurt so much. It's even worse than stubbing your little toe.' Mint says she happened upon the book at an old marketplace near school, where all the shops sold old books and worn knick-knacks that had probably traded hands countless times, and where no shortage of questionably-legal goods moved around under wraps. 'Don't go in there expecting anything. People who treat it as one great treasure hunt by and large end up buying complete useless rubbish, ' stated Operator Skyfire on this topic. 'If you honest-to-God know how to find something nice, you'll find it. If you can't see a thing's true worth, tough. That's the only way. '

Doctor, come sit down here. How is it? The sun feels really nice, right? Eheheh. This is my secret base. I love it here more than anywhere. Don't tell anyone else about it, okay?
Got it. Are you coming with us, Doctor?
Wait! You want me as the leader?
We're off.
Are those our enemies, then?
Mmmm… Whuh? What? Yes, I'm listening!
Yep! Leave it to me.
One, two—whoopsie-daisy.
Please don't get in our way!
Take that!
Please calm down a little!
I've got you now.
Would you like to see some of my magic?
Everything went just like you said it would, Doctor! Amazing...!
Phew... it's over. We can finally head back now.
It doesn't look like any more are coming for us... This is fine for now, right?
We can't, it's too dangerous... Doctor, you need to get away!
Um, to tell the truth, I'd be alright sleeping in the library too.
Yah!
Ah! Doctor, would you like to read with me? It's really comfortable sitting here.
Arknights.
Hm... I'm starting to miss my mum and dad. Skyfire has been away from home for so long. Maybe I should ask her how she manages... Oh, Doctor. Will a Messenger visit Rhodes Island today? I have a letter I'd like to post.
So this is where you were, Doctor! Found you.
Doctor, here's a book as a present. Happy birthday! Look, I illustrated the cover myself. I'm always gathering minerals, and these ones have been recent favorites of mine. I looked for paints with lusters as close as I could get! And I have the actual rocks to give you too, of course. What do you think, Doctor? Go on, it's all for you.
I wish I could participate in more research projects. My instructor and teammates always take such good care of me. They're worried my illness could get worse if I push myself too hard, so they don't let me join them on the surveys... I must get better at Rhodes Island so I can go back and focus on my research.
Operator Mint's sense of curiosity is extremely strong. Most Institution scholars have passion to embrace as they seek the verities of their matters, and Mint is no exception. Though most of the time she comes off simply as polite and sweet, Mint's natural-born curiosity and hunger for knowledge is impossible to hide, and it didn't take long to show once she arrived at Rhodes Island. She spent the first couple of days 'exploring' most areas of the ship provided to Operators, before selecting a few lesser trodden places to act as her own secret bases. She's taken to life at Rhodes Island very quickly. However, her wildly scattering curiosity has definitely invited trouble at times. One thing that worries people is while doing something, Mint is distractable. Of course, this isn't to say she has no sense of priority. When a directly pressing matter is at hand, Mint focuses and spares no detail until it's done, but the moment the most critical part is finished, she loosens up, and it's then that something else can easily steal her attention. For example, after a mission, she might be lured away by some novel ore or Originium-infected creature, and will wander off from her team without realizing it until she's lost in the dead of the wilderness... That has happened more than once. And if this continues without any mediation or regulation, we fear that Operator Skyfire, who already loses her temper whenever it happens, will sooner or later burn the ship out from the inside.
Mint doesn't seem to be too bothered by her own Oripathy. Her infection was completely unforeseen. At the time, a group of scholars had made due preparations and entered a deep fault left by a Catastrophe. Exploration there went without a hitch—only as they withdrew, the ground beneath Mint's footing subsided, and the rest is history. Mint herself cares less about her illness, a lost cause as it is, and much more about if she's obtained some good samples for experimentation, or whether she's onto any breakthrough discoveries. Those are what really matter to her. After all, geological research has always been part and parcel of all sorts of dangerous environments. No matter the stringent safety measures, no one can guarantee an accident will never occur. Mint and all the researchers with her were all aware of this. It was with a fundamental understanding of the risk that they made their choices. Operator Mint has never once been regretful.
