cloth sings across metal, lightly dampened with the choji oil he used to keep rust from taking the blade’s integrity. the cleaning of his blade was something of a ritual performed after every mission - both to preserve the blade, and calm its wielder. ( his right hand would shake, if it were still flesh. even now, he can hear the pounding of his heart in his ears. so many years of training, yet the crash of adrenaline still took him a few moments to process. )
“ it is likely not the last time you will see it, dr. ziegler. ”
the mask that covers his face turns his voice almost robotic, the same as the omnic people that walked the streets of the cities they worked so tirelessly to protect. it feels as though someone else speaks with his voice, marred words in a tone that almost sounds like him - but with one foot in the uncanny valley. ( he holds his words so he himself does not hear them. )
“ i hope that you do not find it too disturbing. ”
