He's still clinging to me, frowning, his voice has a sharp edge to it that doesn't suit him, my dear sweet brother. I realize it's fear, and wonder if that's how I sound when I'm scared. I make up my mind not to ever let Hiromu hear me sounding like that. I'm sure Masato's already heard it, but I don't like it at all.
"Yes, of couse, 'iromu, Youko-chan, Ryuuji-san... But... No, Etienne, mon frere, I mean before. Don't you remember, before Vaglass? Before Messiah? He worked with the Commander, with Youko-chan's mother. You must remember..."
I shake my head and lift a hand to cup his chin, searching his eyes. "Etienne, what is the matter with you? You are not generally like this. So frantic. It's a dream, cher, just a dream. I'll wake up, and you'll rest again. Don't fret. It kills me when you're upset." I know I'm not making sense anymore, that he's just a figment of my own imagination. But he feels awfully real, especially his terrible fear, and it makes my heart ache. I do believe the avatar has been shut off for too long and I'm beginning to develop cabin fever from the inside of my own head.
