“WHY ARE YOU running away?” A rhetorical question posed as a barely concealed threat; evident by the way A2 holds her blade towards the android’s neck, silently daring 2B to come closer.

& INITIALLY HE HAD FELT NOTHING BUT PURE, UTTER GUILT ; knees are bleeding red against scorching asphalt & burning — burning — burning. the visor’d lad keeps his head down, refusing to look up. refusing to meet her gaze. fingers flex & textured leather stretches over synthetic muscle, tubes & wires & circuits whirring beneath the thin covering of what was to be called their SKIN.
he felt he violated her. FORCIBLY HACKED INTO HER SPACE, despite the wavering cries of refusal. despite the cries of pure desperation. bright crimson hides behind pressed lids & there was no time to think- no time to hear her out. he had to save her. pure white wall is stained ugly black . . . virus making quick work to r u i n — nines was quicker, however.
there are flashes of orange and purple, patterns of offense recognized by the scanner in his duty to PURGE. virus removal was swift . . . it didn’t spread vast, didn’t travel far. initially he had felt nothing but pure, utter guilt ; personality data HEAVY with sin & self-reproach. he shouldn’t have done it — but he had no choice. he had no choice. right? but yet . . he couldn’t help but release his curiosity so eager, so ACHING. impulsively rummaging through every corner and crevice of twobe’s mind.
how utterly filthy of him to do so.
guilt is only short-lived, however. guilt turns into confusion turns into anger. anger turns to acceptance & right back to confusion. he’s back in his own body now — outside of hers. faced with an ugly truth- one he had long discovered . . . one he had long denied- suddenly he’s feeling everything all at once. the looming presence of his supportive unit, hovering silently o’er his shoulder. HER BREATHS, labored & irregular. unlike the ones he’d been holding all this time.
chest is tight, mind reels. he had known it was only a matter of time he would be killed for what he had done . . . for what he had uncovered in his many illegal attempts to access private bunker servers . . . it was only a waiting game from then, counting every hour every second until his inevitable reset. one he was very much ready for. one he anticipated.
he did not- however- anticipate this. not her. never her.
let’s go back, he whispers. let’s go back. let’s go back. over & over. again & again. he doesn’t even realize he’s saying it until SHE speaks up. ( WE CAN’T GO BACK ). because now he knows. her real designation. her real mission. but she does not know what he harbors. does not know what he carries. knows not what there was to fight for. there’s an irony to this, but nines does not think about the connection. he can’t. there’s a ghost of a chuckle that is released under the breath that finally escapes him. really, it’s funny. it’s so funny- the way they’re so tragically fated to come to THIS conclusion.
it always ends like this.
“ 2B . . . ” her name rolls softly ; full of malice. full of sorrow. “ i’m sorry. ”
A CRUEL OATH IS WEILDED. he no longer hesitates.
@dreamwilt says → 🎵 toya and mizuki? :p ( misc actions. / accepting. )
music is something that’s everywhere in toya’s life, from the better ( familiar beats pulsing through his veins as he sings onstage beside his partner and groupmates ) to the worse ( jamming his headphones on and turning up the volume loud enough to drown out the sounds of piano from across the house ). it’s so present, that for a moment, he doesn’t register the song he can faintly hear from the school hallway as out of place.
the singer’s voice is clear, practiced, and familiar in a way toya can’t quite put a matching name to. curiosity drives him closer to the song, hardly even paying a passing thought to how one likely chooses only to practice after school hours when most of the student population has left or are busy with club activities because they desire that solitude.
though the door to the room has been closed, toya can peer through the window and see mizuki standing there — and oh, no wonder he thought he knew that voice, though he had no idea they could sing like that. now that he thinks about it, he had no idea they came to school today, either. this is his first time seeing them this week.
as quietly as he can, he slides the door open just enough to slip through, but they must have caught his movement from the corner of their eye because there’s not even a beat before their eyes meet his and silence falls over the room.
“ ah, ” toya says awkwardly, wondering immediately if he should have left them alone, “ i’m sorry. i didn’t mean to interrupt you. ”
‘ yeaah, but you didn’t have to do it like 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 ~ !! ‘ now all thoughts point to worm - infested cakes... several sweets? ruined in per rui fashion. ‘ it was a bad rescue, it was 𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦... !! ‘ @dreamwilt
