Fandom: .Hack
Pairing: Helba X Lios
Done For:
1sentence Theme Set: Epsilon
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Characters belong to Bandi
Notes: I tried to keep it as close to canon as much as possible. The relationship they have as it is is pretty fun to work with without making it sexual. (Some sentences are based off of .Hack//Gift and .Hack//Unison, not just the four games.)
Motion:
Lios use to go through the motions of being an administrator till Helba and the .Hackers entered the picture
Cool:
She was his complete opposite, able to keep her head while he would start pointing fingers immediately
Young:
The two floated above the young partiers, a small smile of satisfaction and relief on their faces.
Last:
Lios growled the hacker Helba was at it again, transporting a player character into the Net Slums to talk to him.
Wrong:
"You have it all wrong, Lios," Helba said softly, "we just want to save the game we love, like you."
Gentle:
She watched in awe, Lios never showed a gentle side till now...and all it took was a rag-tag bunch of gamers to make it come out.
One:
"I'll be the one to save The World," he spat to the woman hacker.
Thousand:
"Even a thousand of my men could defeat Sheith, why could one kid do it?"
King:
"Every King needs a Queen," said Helba with a smirk.
Learn:
"So you learn something new every day," he said in defeat.
Blur:
The fight went by in such a flash that it was a blur to Lios, only Helba saw the whole thing.
Wait:
Lios was going to say something to Kite and the others as they parted, but one look from Helba told him he'd better wait.
Change:
Lios' feelings towards hackers had changed especially after he had to spend so much time with Helba while Kite ran loose in the world.
Command:
It annoyed Lios to no end that, even with all the men under his command, that he could not stop one hack and one rough player character.
Hold:
Helba took hold of her staff, ready to fight with Kite, Lios just looked annoyed, as always.
Need:
"You need to pull that oak tree out of your ass, Lios," Helba said with a smile.
Vision:
"How can you see with that hat down around your eyes?" Lios asked out of the blue.
Attention:
"Pay attention, Lios, you may just learn something by them," Helba said.
Soul:
"Aura's the soul of the game, we just protect her and The World," Helba said to the group below her, Lios silently agreeing with her, for once.
Picture:
Lios huffed and dropped his hand, "I'm sure we should take a screen shot of this, as it would never happen again."
Fool:
"I feel like a fool," Lios said after the final fight, Helba just smiled.
Mad:
Lios seethed, Helba had snuck past his firewalls yet again. "How in The World does she do it?"
Child:
"I wonder...what our child would be like should we have one..." Helba said jokingly to an ashen faced Lios.
Now:
"They play in the here and now, we play for the future," Helba said.
Shadow:
"I'm going to shadow you, Helba, your hacking days are over," Lios said to the latest image of the female hacker.
Goodbye:
They didn't need to say anything, the unspoken goodbye hung heavily in the air.
Hide:
"There's no place to hide, Helba, I know how to get into the Net Slums now," Lios said with a smirk.
Fortune:
"Why hacking? For the fortune?" "No, for the truth."
Safe:
"Nowhere is safe anymore, Morganna Mode Gone has seen to that," Helba said, anger in her normally calm voice.
Ghost:
"Helba's like a ghost in the system; she comes in and out as she pleases," Lios said to the new recruits under his unit.
Book:
Helba laughed, "You should pick up a book once in a while, it might do you good."
Eye:
"This game is the apple of my eye, Helba, I'm not going to let anyone destroy it."
Never:
"I never thought I'd be on speaking terms with a hacker," Lios mused, more to himself than to Helba.
Sing:
The two watched the celebration, glad that the other wasn't ruining it by singing.
Sudden:
The sudden, and slightly welcomed, alliance between the hacker and the administrator brought some well needed peace to the administrator's mind.
Stop:
"Helba, by order of the CC Corp. I hereby order you to stop your illegal hacking or we will be forced to delete your character," Lios yelled to the retreating figure.
Time:
"We've ran out of time, we must attack Morganna tonight!" Helba was a much better motivator than Lios would ever admit to.
Wash:
"I really wish I could wash my hands of you, hacker, but with what's going on in The World, I can't," Lios admitted to a slightly shocked Helba.
Torn:
When Helba showed Lios the torn dungeon, he was shocked to see all the tears in the world with the coding flying through the air.
History:
"Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it, Lios," Helba said after the final fight, "We must not let this happen again."
Power:
Lios had to give Helba her dues; she created her own personal 'Root Town' with her hacking powers.
Bother:
"Her brother is a Lost One, Lios, that's why she fights," Helba said, speaking of the pink haired Heavy Blade.
God:
"The God program is protceting us, Lios, she won't let you deleat us."
Wall:
Lios hit a wall, he couldn't delet the .Hackers, but he didn't want to admit he was in the wrong.
Naked:
"Let's make a bet, Lios, if they win, your PC has to spend the day naked, if they lose...well, there wouldn't be a World left for me to go naked in."
Drive:
"What drives you, Lios, to do the job you do?" Helba asked, "Because I'm pretty sure its what drives me too."
Harm:
"You cannot harm them either, Helba. If I can't delete them, then you can't hack them."
Precious:
"The World is precious to all of us who play it, Lios. That's why we do what we do."
Hunger:
"I have a hunger for order, Helba, you know that well enough."
Believe:
Lios and Helba put aside their differences and put all their faith into Kite, Black Rose, and the rest of the .Hackers.
