Departures - [Takes place before Knight's Message]
1. [After the mission to the abandoned mine, there is a short message from Eva for everyone.]
I'm leaving. Tonight, or maybe tomorrow. I have questions for Edward that need answering, and doing things the "official" way will take years and a mountain of paperwork.
In truth, he has employed me for a long time-longer than the Unity Group. He found me at a very difficult time in my life, and it's thanks to his help that I was able to even join the Unity Group in the first place. Without him, I would probably have taken my own life before ever coming here.
He employed me as a spy, though I wasn't able to find anything particularly amazing. I stopped sending him information shortly before the Albatross was destroyed; he's not someone I trust anymore.
Oh, and keep Edwards out of my personal effects while I'm gone.
[She'll be around the base for a while longer, before it comes time to leave.]
2. [Eva's room is plain and barely furnished; there is a matress in one corner for a bed, a safe in another. But the walls are covered, floor to ceiling, with sketches on paper she's taped up. They're landscapes of the area around various UG bases, and while most are pretty amateurish, there are a few good quality ones.
Eva herself is sitting on a suitcase, cutting up a photo; there's a small locket, spread across her lap.]

2)
[Leos was at the door, walking in slowly to take in the wall to wall sketches.]
I'm actually surprised with what you're doing you know.
Re: 2)
Life's full of surprises.

[Leos claps slowly.]
Eager to start the cycle all over again then? Do you want to breed another generation of rabid psychic terrorists who'll murder and kill in your name? Maybe you'll even get to name yours.
I'm guessing Ren and Ilinka are off the top of your list?
no subject
Leos, I am going to do you a favor, and pretend I did not hear what you just said.
Leave.
[Out of the corner of his eye, it's possible for Leos to see the photo is a group shot from some meet-up, with Ren in the part that's being cut out.]
no subject
[He doesn't leave, simply choosing to look Eva in the eyes.]
I'm sure they'd be proud of what you're doing. Ren for covering for someone you obviously care for. And Ilinka for doing the previous despite him being a complete monster.
Congratulations. I'm sure when you look at that photo of Ren you'd feel great about everything you've done.
no subject
[And more than a bit successful...]
But just now? You crossed a line. So let me be very clear here: I am not going to fight you.
[Before Leos can really get in a word edgewise, she keeps going.]
I'm not going to fight you, because I know what a miserable pile of self-loathing and masochism you've turned into as of late. You've fought and fought for vengeance, and found nothing to give you purpose at its end. You've wound up being the sort of violent monster you hate most, and so you've started playing the villain.
[Eva's earlier calm voice picks up an edge as she keeps talking.]
You're going to be a jerk and an asshole and a violent thug until we're finally called in to stop you, because you want your life to end and don't have the stones to do it yourself.
When that day comes, and we do finally fight each other seriously, you will beg me to kill you, and I will deny your wish.
1/2
[Trying to irritate an empath tends to be a bad idea because of what they can throw back into your face. But right now? He was going to give as good as it gets.]
You got so much right but so much wrong at the same time. But I digress...
At the very least I'm honest to my own nature. But you? What are you? Can you even feel? Oh we can ask anyone else on the base and they say you can. In fact I'm sure that Ren believed that you were a good person. That you're better than you actually are.
2/2
But at the very core of it you're as twisted as your siblings. You're willing to destroy. To murder. To lie. And for what? The sake of someone or something that would keep you on their strings.
You say you want answers but we both know why you're really doing this. Because its instinct. Because you know nothing else except to keep going to McDowell's beck and call.
Maybe that's why you were so close to those two. Ren gave you what you always wanted from the old man while Ilinka was you.
And when that day comes and we fight each other seriously? I'll definitely kill you just so Ren can see how far you've fallen.
no subject
[Eva goes to walk out of her own room. When Leos mentions instinct, she stops for a moment-then quickens her pace out of there.]

Do you... really need to go?
Re: 2
I'll never be satisfied if I don't. The things we learned today...I had suspicions, but I hoped they weren't true. It's completely inexcusable...
I need to find out why he did all this. And my best chance to do that is in person.
no subject
It never ends well, does it?
no subject
...I'll admit, it's not got a great track record...
no subject
A hero is never alone, too! You have friends, right Eva? Friends that can help you.
no subject
[Eva puts a hand on Izuru's shoulder.]
But this'll be easier for me by myself. And you all still have work to do here, you know?
It'll just be a little while, so wait for me.

Hi. Thought I'd drop by before you left.
Re: 2
[Eva sets aside her work.]
Is everything alright?

Re: 2
Be back soon, be careful...And don't do anything that'll hurt yourself, okay?

Re: 1
Depending on his answer, I might kill him. But I'd think It's more likely I'll ruin him, or just...leave.
