Since returning from her initiation into Delta, Rita has had a few shifts observing the Farm. During these periods, she behaves much like the Technicians do, standing stoically to the side, approaching no one, and at times, seemingly occupied with whatever she's looking at through her visor.

It's unclear if Rita catches Gongenzaka's glance, as her own eyes remain hidden, and her hands, motioning as if utilizing a display only she can see, don't stop.

That is, until she feels something peculiar afterward, which does give her pause. At first, she wonders if it's just her imagination, but there's a faint glimmer of hope. Something touching her soul... Like Ignatius. Even as she resumes her observing, showing no outward reaction, she tries focusing, listening, to the source of this connection.
