You cannot understand..?

[With the aftermath of the recent mission it seems that Interitus has undergone something of a transformation. It was horrifying now to be sure and looked even more monstrous than before. One would shudder to think what this beast is and will be capable of. Volya just managed to pull himself out of his partner and had been stumbling about before turning to regard her in shock.]

'Teritus?

[His voice was almost frightened as she rose slightly. It was more than twice its original size, not counting the wingspan. Even at rest it towered over him... moreso than it did before. Then it gently bumped him over with the snout on its now differently formed head, causing the young Russian to yelp as he fell over. His everything was feeling extremely weak after the both of them completely lost it because of Zeig.]

Ah!



Thhbthhhhtht...

[He lets out a weak chuckle and hugs his partner as well as their differing sizes could allow.]



...'m not scared of you... just a little worried is all... glad you're still the same you.

[2] [Dated to a few days after Universal Care]

[Due to a case of exhaustion, Volya was unable to attend classes. This naturally made more than a few members of the Student's Comparative Defensive Theology Club quite worried as well as curious. So in order to find out more... they stalked Ken from school, to his personal gym in the place they nicknamed the 'abandoned buildings' district right back to Sakihama. Needless to say, this led to a few things. Like Volya having to drag himself out of bed to see his wayward friends who were no doubt caught by someone and need him to confirm their identities.]

"Volya!"
"Alkaev-san!"
"VVV!"



[This face. Just this face.]

[Fortunately, that warmth wasn't going to be accompanied by the discomforting light of that summer morning. That would've put a dampener on things.]

It can. With the awakening of powers can come a different view of the world... and potentially a complete disregard for everything you experienced and believed in prior.

And that's not how you're supposed to do things. I didn't become the person I am overnight, and in the early days I was less a good person and more a bad one trying to be good by doing the opposite of everything I thought I should do.

...Its kind of hard to believe you were ever bad...

But... that kind of makes you better doesn't it?

[empress_without_a_throne]

Not sure about "better", but at the very least genuinely good. No brainwashing or anything like that for me. I doubt even if Solaris had considered that they wouldn't have had the budget to pull something like that off.

[mistaken_for_monster]

I don't think they would have... not if they were the same people who gave you a chance.

[Volya nibbles at his lower lip anxiously though.]

But... people might be worried after seeing her turn into this...
