	[She nods, looking sad and serious and thoughtful all at once.] Then I will have to simply continue to be your friend and hope that is enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's plenty. Thank you. [ Even tho it's mostly his fault for locking himself away, his greatest fear is to be totally alone with this. Knowing he has Aigis around, sweet, accepting Aigis, that means more than he's able to put in words right now. ] It's nice here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[It reminds her of another sick friend long ago, one they could have helped if they'd paid closer attention. She wants to do things better this time.]

Would you like to see my favorite place in the entire dome? [Not waiting for an answer she leads him down a path that's mostly hidden by trees. A short distance later and it ends in a small clearing entirely surrounded by flowers and plants and, naturally, butterflies. There's a bench at the center of it and she takes a seat, leaving room for him beside her.] I think it is very peaceful here.

	[ He follows along, of course, wanting to stick close to her. She makes things feel a bit better, because she's rational without being unemotional and that's all he ever strived to be. The balance is even harder to strike right now. ] It is. [ He sighs softly, sitting down on the bench next to her. ] I don't know why I don't go here more often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She smiles contentedly, taking his hand in her hard, machanical one. It's not a romantic gesture; romance is one of those things like illness that she knows she'll never really understand or feel properly. It's just friendship. She's always felt comfortable with gestures like that, even before she had her emotions.]

There is so much to see and do here I think many people forget about this place. Sometimes I like to have somewhere quiet to go, though.

	[ That's nice too, physical contact that isn't wrapped up in the stressful nature that comes with human interaction. He lets her take his hand, even squeezes it back lightly in appreciation. ] I can understand that. [ He ponders on that for a moment. ] Do you feel like you still have something to do here, Aigis?

Yes, I think I do, even if it is only small things. [She looks around her at the butterflies, the sky, the flowers. None of it is real but maybe that doesn't matter.] There is a great monster we found at home once. Or perhaps more than a monster. An entity. One that can simply bring the earth to an end, but only if people long for that. My friend sacrificed their self to stand as a barrier between it, a great sea between worlds but it is hard to maintain that protection sometimes. If people truly long for Nyx, for an end to all the pain and suffering they think the world brings to them then that seal will not hold. I promised to spend my life fighting that here, reminding people that there is good, that life is worth living, that we should never give up on it. Even if I can only remind the few people here in this place I can be happy with that. It might only be a small drop in the ocean, but I believe it still makes a difference. That will always be my purpose, no matter where I am.

[ Reid sits quiet for a moment, thinking over what she said and it sounds nice and hopeful, something Gideon could've told him when he was a young fresh FBI agent who needed encouragement in the face of evil. That was a long time ago, though. Thirty years. More than half his life and lately, he's struggling to see the point. ]

What about... [ He starts, stops, starts again. ] What about those who are sick, or... or old. Those who are suffering and won't get better. Is it really never okay to give up..? Life isn't just about prolonging vital signs.

	Being ready for and at peace death is one thing. It is natural and, I think, important. It is dispair that resonates with Nyx, the thought that the whole world is beyond saving, that there is too much pain and darkness to redeem it. That it should just end. [Strega found too many people willing to listen to that message all those years ago.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He nods, solemnly. That's better, then. Makes him think of something else, though. ] Aigis... are you immortal? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I am not entirely sure. [There is no one else to ask. She's never met any of her sisters. They were all gone before she was created.] Functionally I suppose I am. I can always be repaired, and the Plume of Dusk which powers me will not run out of power. I do not know if I can ever be destroyed completely so I have accepted the fact that even if I dedicate my life to protecting people I care about one way or another I will still eventually fail. Even if they live a long and safe life I will still have to say goodbye to them.

	[ Physical contact isn't something he engages in much anymore, for many reasons, but this seems to be the right time for an exception. He turns to her, awkwardly pulling her in for a hug. ] That's awful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	orgia_mode 2017-02-05 02:00 pm UTC (link)
	[That surprises her, because she knows he doesn't do hugs. But she returns it readily, even smiling despite the subject.] It is alright. A longer life means more opportunities to help people and to keep them safe. I like to think about that part. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're a really good person, Aigis. [ He believes this truly and fully. She may be the best person he's ever met. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	orgia_mode 2017-02-06 03:55 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you. [Not for being called good. For being called a person.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
