A heroic clone

[Following is backdated to before Seta's invitation.]

Major Ingram really was a good guy all along? I had no idea... that Calico guy managed to trick everyone. He seemed just like the real deal!

It just shows that you can't judge someone just because he was made one way or another. Even if the Major was cloned to be a spy, goodness of his own heart prevailed.

[Izuru sits down while pondering loudly. He starts to sketch absent-mindedly.]

I wasn't there to see it, but it must've looked something like this. I'm sure...

You mean, like a robot?

I know he had a mission on Earth but... hmm.

[And now Izuru is deep in thought. That's one way to interrupt his drawing.]

[cloningblues]

He was a clone, created for a specific purpose. Balmarians, Wulgaru, the Lady's Good Men - all of them think that's a good way to get cheap and expendable soldiers.

And not just them.

[herodrawing]

Umm.

We don't really count as expendable, do we?

[cloningblues]

No. But we were made specifically for this. Just like him.

[herodrawing]

Asagi...

You think we don't have a choice in doing this?

[cloningblues]

Technically yes. But what kind of choice is that? "Sorry, I don't want to fight anymore, I'll just sit and watch while everyone else is trying to save Earth from aliens"?

There's no way I can say that.

[herodrawing]

But that's everyone, right?

I mean, I can't see any of our friends just sit back and watch and do nothing. Not just us Team Rabbits.

[cloningblues]

I know. But sometimes I wonder; am I doing this because I want to, or because that's how I was made?

[herodrawing]

I think you do it because you want to, Asagi.

That's because...

[You know what's coming, right?]

[cloningblues]

Yes, I know. You don't have to say it.

[herodrawing]

That's no fun, you know...
