((Naoto's head is lowered, a single hand lifted to her neck. When she raises her head, the bandages that have disappeared from Haine's neck are now wrapped around hers. They slip on one side to reveal the metal collar embedded in her flesh. Her eyes are narrowed, cloudy.))

Haine...

If you ever touch me again, I'll slice you to ribbons. And I will

N-Naoto...

You too...

What happened to you?

Voice

[memento_blade]

Just stay away from me.

Voice

[rabies_shot]

What?

What did I do?

How am I supposed to stay away from you when you're obviously...

And what is that thing around your neck?

Voice

[memento_blade]

It doesn't matter what you did, it's what you are.

I mean it. I won't be able to stop myself. Not once it takes over.

[strategistmedic]

Well this is interesting.

[Voice]

[memento_blade]

Why don't you try wearing one for awhile.

[Voice]

[strategistmedic]

What's it for?

[Voice]

[memento_blade]

Killing.

[Cold, but he sounds fleetingly amused.]

Warning duly noted.

[Voice]

[memento_blade]

At least one of you listens. Now, convince my stalker.

[Voice]

[theeyeoftruth]

Surely you're capable of doing so yourself, my lady?

[Voice]

[memento_blade]

Listening isn't his strong point.

And don't call me that. I know what you're after.

[thatmoonchick]

Chibi...

Hurt?

[memento_blade]

((Silence, then her voice is a little softer than before.))

Yes...

[thatmoonchick]

Hurt get better!

[memento_blade]

It'll never get better.

[valetudochamp]

Probably when you stop pulling at it like that.

[memento_blade]

It's not the collar that hurts. It's what's attached to it.
