Cherry:
Yugure kept herself quiet, unable to really relax with Haruka given the situation. Still, she yearned to simply hear him talk, even if it was a much needed reveal. Giving a signal for Butler-san to go away, they entered the living room. Haruka sat down, she leaned against a chair with arms folded. Waiting for this tale to start... seeing him lost in nerves... the woman couldn't even begin to understand what he had been through. "So uh, I died!" was how the boy started, and the Blasters of Fate proceeded to bash their heads into walls. THAT'S how he starts this?! Bleh... Whatever, they listened to the rest of his story. Yugure had been absent for a time again, so he sounded lonely.

Hearing his down falling health, however, brought surprise and concern to her face. Was he really okay? ... Well, he already died and came back, so...

The Chosen Sword dropped her harsh demeanor. Of course he was lonely. While unable to speak for everyone else, she, as his girlfriend, was missing in action once again, and then forced too much on the war effort to give him the time he deserved.

"I'm sorry", were the first words that came out of her mouth. If it wasn't for Sera... he would've died without them seeing each other. Something to be grateful to the Seed for? ... No, this is probably his fault. Anything to make Sera look like the proper villain he is.

Honestly, the queen just wanted to hug him. But the soldier in her warned that Sera could intervene and stab her in the back. Even so, her hand came down on the chair's arm, motioning herself forward, but stopping. It's because of that warrior mentality she's still alive and kicking for a war she found near-hopeless. So it couldn't just be ignored...

What to do...

Jello:
"No need. You had a good reason, really." He saw her hesitate to walk over to him. No matter how much he rationalized the reason out and knew that it was totally about Sera, someone they were both aware of, he felt.

Alone.

He felt like he did the past week. In the hospital. Even during the Reverse Assault but still scared and alone and if Yukino wouldn't touch him then there probably wasn't much hope for him left. Maybe... No, nope. No easy way outs.

"You don't have to comfort me...  I'm aware too that he's still there. He's been quiet since I left the beach and came over here. He hasn't even tried to stop me coming here. It was just, weird I guess." His hands shook again, forcing him to grab the cup of coffee and finish it off. Placing it down he just stared at his feet, tapping his feet.

"It's hard to desire a monster, you know?" Haruka sort of just said what was on his mind. He was feeling alone. He wasn't, not really anyways. He had Yukino and he had Hana and he had Seifer and Tsubasa and Darren and Rose and he had friends and people who wanted him alive but no matter how much he rationalized it, he just sat there and felt like a half-breed disasterpiece and all he could do was feel alone.

"I'm sorry, dear."

Cherry:
Sera didn't stop him? Hmph, a clever ruse. The invader could simply use this vessel, knowing she loved it to death, and lure the Chosen Sword in. Link Joker would absolutely love to have one of the driving forces for humanity to fall straight into a coffin. Then they'll pull her right out and infect. Yes, this is how a pissed off war general would and did think. At the same time, a girl who had worlds crumbling around, and then putting themselves together, knowing they would just fall apart again was willing to take a risk.

"Don't you dare apologize", Yugure hissed. The woman pushed out the scarred general persona, and approached Haruka. Sitting down next to him, an arm reached over the man's shoulder. "You're not a monster, he is. He is not you." These were her words of reassurance. Despite them being merged into one entity, they were still different people. Haruka was a kind, cute, fumbling treasure while Sera was a fiend. How utterly ironic for the alter ego's name.

The arm pulled a bit closer, just to emphasize that reassurance.

Jello:
Haruka just trembled for a bit, catching his own throat. Sera was indeed him. Before, even he would deny it. But after all that's happened, Sera and Haruka were simply inseparable. Monsters by design.

Despite her best efforts, the war general's embrace only scared the boy a bit more. Its not her fault really. He doesn't want to hurt her but he also just wants to be held and cared for. How contradictory given the circumstances. After a moment, he somewhat moved himself toward her, and allowed her to pull him in a little.

He yearned for a moment. This was a start...

Haruka laid his head in the crevice between her neck and shoulder lighty nuzzling against her, trying to get comfortable.

"Then let me thank you, for having me." He wanted to be nowhere else but within the boundary zones of her arms. He wanted to be nowhere else. Here was just fine with him.

He smiled, even curling his legs up into a ball against himself as he used Yukino as a pillow. He was smiling again. If only more nights were like this. If only they weren't really messed up people. This would be a lot easier, wouldn't it?

Cipher Izanagi:
Completely unrelated to what's happening here, one of the decks that Yukino had picked up recently, Seifer's Kagero deck (which still has one of her copies of Blaster Blade Liberator in it), started to glow a soft pale red light. The light stayed for several minutes before fading away, and there were now four new cards. They were almost similar to the previous cards that were still revealing themselves. However, while this card had no text, skill wise or name wise, there was something interesting in the top left hand corner of the card. The number was higher than three. It showed up as a four.
