Jello:
"Ghost works. Let's go with ghost." He finished his last bite of his sandwich and leaned back on in chair, letting out a sigh of relief. Tasty food was always a good way to start off the day.
"So you... You ate the Reverse energy? I'm going to assume you mean consumed it or its essence, either one makes sense, I guess. Erm, why though? Most people don't take kindly to having their heart torn in every which way, especially when invaders are up and about." Sera looked over at the ravengirl with a look of confusion but also just like "what possessed you to possess you."
Not much to do about it really. Hana seemed to be quite content in her current state. She radiated more Reverse energy than most people did anyways, so the fuel was pretty nice to keep him going for the day. Maybe as much as the Generals, just off of her strength alone. If only Sera hadn't felt emotions at all, this would be the best asset to him. However now he simply feels a bit guiltier about the life of his host.
"When was the last time you and Haruka talked? I mean, you know, really talked." Sera twiddled his thumbs a bit, looking at his fingernails.
Hope:
"Ghost? Seems legit." Hana noticed him kooking at his nails. They sure were ugly nails, looking like the kind that hadn't been cut in a while, as if he's been passed out and around or something. Oh, right. "Your nails are ugly." That was all that was ever said about it.
She held onto his hand and looked him in the eye after, trying to keep her hand away from the ugly and disgusting finger nails as she held them. The tendencies of reverse turned her into a bit of a diva about more things than just water bottles and canola oil. If she wasn't reversed, this would also be the part where she would head straight to battle against the enemy who really was Sera. No matter how angry and frustrated she really was, the reverse energy suppressed it, at least against him. Her body acknowledged that whenever it used energy, Sera naturally supplied more as the source. So she was only provide a few words to him as an answer before the reverse energy silenced her.
"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."
Jello:
"Keep your enemies closer..." Sera looked at the hand she was holding, then at her. What a strange feeling. Not only weeks before, Haruka had been feeling this things towards Hana himself, and so many things raced through his head it was impossible to think.
But Sera was thinking clearly. He enjoyed the touch of other people. The nerves sending electric charges through his body. The feeling was something he had never experienced before, not really anyways. Who would have thought a ghost could come to love humanity again?
"I believe in that phrase all too much, you see. I only wish it didn't mean losing your comrades in order to do so." Sera stared at this hand for a moment, slacking his shoulders and staring at down at his feet, biting his lip. This would have been harder to admit than he thought. It was Hana, the only other person besides Yukino who Haruka valued so much as to lay his life down for them. This was a terrifying way to do it, but better here than never.
"Sadly. You lost a comrade earlier this week. Haruka..." Sera looked up at Hana, in the eyes. Honor is key. Even Sera had that much. Despite his intentions, he had this much owed to the comrade of the host he had occupied.
"Haruka Nakahara died in a hospital bed, three days ago. He died in his sleep. Several hours later I awoke from my previous slumber and took control of the host body, in order to complete the mission I had set out. Forcibly reversing a person makes the host body take serious internal damage, and even consumes human matter and energy to do so. He died from internal bleeding..."
Sera's face softened, staring at Hana's eyes. He was never really fond of gazing into the human spectrum, more infatuated with the stars like Haruka. But she had very pretty eyes as well.
Pretty.
Sera had never thought to describe a human with beauty. A first for everyone.
Hope:
"That sucks."
This is where Hana would draw lines and parallels between her and her sister as well as Miyuki with the power taking over their lover's bodies and taking them away. It wasn't only limited to her anymore, and it was now that it affected Yukino more so. Death would be something Hana didn't receive quite well, much less understand. Casualties such as this would tear more so away at her guilt as a Princess and even more so as Hana the person.
Death? Hmmm... Friend is dead? Lost friends to reverse, lost allies on Cray to reverse, many casualties, armies shattering apart, people getting hurt, and a friend died? Well the Princess continued to fail now. More guilt, negative emotions would come. She wasn't allowed to feel them, the void converted it to energy before she could, so now she was basically standing around, a little bit expressionless. People mourn and feel sad over the loss of a love one, Hana wouldn't mind crying right now, but the Reverse just fed off of that as well.
"I see, so that's how you're a ghost." A single teardrop went down her face. At least one got through. "I loved him in ever way. My mind didn't know what to think whenever it saw him. Eventually I just settled that I'd love him and see him like a brother even though there was much more than that for his and Yukino's sake as well as my own with Miyuki. To think that he would go away after things just had just gotten better.."
Lock away your problems Ha-
"No head message, stop that! Anyways..." She sniffled. "That sucks."
Jello:
Sera simply stood there, watching Hana. She seemed guilt stricken as well, or rather less guilty, but simply just tearing apart at the seams. He wanted to reach out to her, to help her.
But the host body didn't move, because Sera couldn't allow it. Weird how no matter how much he actually wanted to help others he found himself destroying the world's around them? Sera had grown tired of the same old routine but alas, he is bound by the duty of his people. The "invaders" people called them. They weren't wrong, really. Discover. Capture. Conquer. That was all it took.
Suddenly people were against them in every which way. Which is fair. They really shouldn't just be forcibly taking everything they want but it was sort of in their domination nature. Not much to do about it now, the infamy has spread too far.
"It is... All my fault. Hana. I do not expect you to forgive me, or the rest of us. The Star-Vaders. We are cruel and corrupt creatures by design, it is our nature to conquer and use everything at our disposal. But please hear me out. Strange for a conquerer to plead to a Princess..."
Sera stood from his seat, still holding onto her hand. His was ice cold, as usual. A corpse, you know.
"Forgive Haruka. Forgive all those you love now while you still can, before they are gone. And one more thing." He breathed in, looking up, not wanting to get her hopes up all of a sudden.
"Haruka can, perhaps, maybe, come back. Overlord's connection to the boy has created a resurrection bond, to keep him alive. Such is gift of The Boy Born in Flames. You remember the house fire right? Well, its, err, something like that. Overlord is protecting him and intends to keep him alive. Just wait. He might be back before you know it."
Sera gave a small smile, albeit creepy because Sera is a creepy guy but it worked for him this time.
