49th Detonator [Audio]

[nameofexorcist]

Supplies may be limited during winter, so prepare accordingly.

...If anyone is interested in restarting the Discedo soup kitchen again, contact me.


After speaking with Japan and Heiji, I've decided to assign them to Discedo and Spero respectively. Both individuals will be responsible for keeping track of the cities and the people in them. For future incidents, report to the correct individual based on the city you're in. However, if it's necessary, inform me as well.

I will be keeping watch on Dissimulo.


Squall, I have news regarding the walled city you were intending to explore.


Sora. [And that's all he says right now... until she answers him back.]


...The stuffed animal is completed for you. I can deliver it soon.


[After he's done on the communicator, Kresnik picks up the lion plush and goes to look for Yulie in their house.]

[He looks at her.] ...Cube or another doctor here might be able to remove them.

[dreamsonwings]

[Might?]

And if not?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...I will find a way. [Sora shouldn't have an ARM. It's not right. She's not a gene driver.]

[dreamsonwings]

And I'll say it again: you're not doing it alone.

[Translation: Let me help you.]

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...Don't use your ARM in the mean time. [He doesn't comment about her help.]

[dreamsonwings]

I don't even know how I called it.

[So how can she not use it if she doesn't even know how she summoned the thing?]

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Don't think about attacking anyone.

[dreamsonwings]

[See this face? This is her 'You don't know me well enough, do you?' expression. No words needed.]

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

[...] That includes monsters... and even self-defense.

[dreamsonwings]

[And she takes it the wrong way.]

Wait, even if I don't use or call it, I can't defend myself?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

If you don't call it, you won't experience that pain again.

[dreamsonwings]

...what exactly is it?

Please...I need to know.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

A weapon. [...Just stating the obvious.]

[dreamsonwings]

[Got that.]

Why does it cause pain when it's called?

[Wait, if the machines came from him...then...?]

...has it happened to you?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...Your body is rejecting the nanomachines. [That's the short story.]

[Long pause.] Yes.

[dreamsonwings]

[Rejecting? Uh oh, that's not a good sign at all. And he's felt the pain too? Was the same thing happening to both of them?]

...how long?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...Don't concern yourself over that, Sora.

[dreamsonwings]

Of course I'm going to be concerned; you're hurting too. Friends care about each other, right?

[She brings a hand to her mouth, like if she had said the wrong thing. Were they? Or was she just a burden to him, needing to be saved every time she turned around?]

I mean...if we are...

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

[He notices her expression.] ...We are.

[dreamsonwings]

[Weither it settled her uncertainity, it couldn't be shown physically. Nonetheless, she was glad.]

Then I have a right to care about you.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

.....I can handle the pain, Sora.

[dreamsonwings]

It doesn't matter.

[Maybe you shouldn't have talked to her that day; now you're stuck with her until you leave.]

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

The focus should be on your current predicament.

[dreamsonwings]

[There's a pause on her end for a minute.]

Funny that you should say that because that hasn't been my focus.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

It should be.
