Wednesday, May 6 // All Day and Dark Hour // Everywhere

[cant_howl_my]

*So, a few days after the Hanged Man fight, things could best be considered 'very bad'. Several of the SEES members are in the hospital or still hurt from the aftermath of the fight. Despite it all, the Dark Hour is still around. If that weren't enough... Ikutsuki managed to get the senior members of SEES to Tartarus, and tried to kill them,

[Is depressed. :|]

((Will be slow! Fair warning and all~))

*Hey, at least you didn't get totally owned like you did in canon.*

[robowife]

Minato-san...

[cant_howl_my]

Aegis... How are you feeling?

[robowife]

... Minato-san... Was it my fault...?

[cant_howl_my]

Of course not.

[robowife]

But I...! If it were not for me...

... Mitsuru-san's father...

[cant_howl_my]

It wasn't your fault at all.

Ikutsuki-san was... responsible for all of this.

[robowife]

But I helped him...! If I were not there, I... I...!

[cant_howl_my]

He would have found another way. It was your resisting his control that kept us alive... If it weren't for you, his plan would have worked.

[robowife]

[Isn't convinced. You gotta EARN that rank up this time, prettyboy!]

... ... Minato-san...

... Why, am I still here...?

[cant_howl_my]

*D8!!*

What do you mean?

[robowife]

I... am a machine. I was created, to destroy Shadows. But...

... Defeating the final Shadow didn't solve anything. It only made things worse. Perhaps... the purpose for which I was created was never possible to accomplish in the first place!

[cant_howl_my]

Even if it's impossible, we have to keep trying.

[robowife]

But if that's true, then what am I here for!? I am a machine! A machine without a purpose is worthless!

[is growing visibly more distressed]

I... If I cannot defeat the Shadows, how... How can I protect everyone...

[robowife]

[looks up at you desperately]

How can I protect you...!?
