[Now Playing: Soiree Des Au Revoires II]For whatever reason, Shion never felt comfortable in this corridor. It was small, enclosed, with only doors and lights on the wall with no windows. No way to see what was outside unless you had an appointment. He was lucky he had one, or perhaps not- since if he hadn't scheduled it, he wouldn't have to pass through this uncomfortable place to get there. Shion's voice over the phone lacked the good cheer he always seemed to carry himself with, sounding tired in comparison to the cautious, yet energetic voice Sadako would have heard when scheduling the first meeting. He sounded more like an adult that needed help this time. A hand touched the golden doorknob that was in reach, a feeling of warmth combined with the oily sensation of human skin bothering him. After recent events, it was no surprise that many students needed counseling. The door opened, revealing Shion to be covered in bandages on many parts of his body. Not really a look that others would consider fitting for someone who looked as fragile as he did, especially when the "selling point" he had been told of by teachers was cuteness and innocence. He waited to be asked in, quietly looking towards the table Sadako always sat at with eyes that lacked their usual brightness. A seat of refuge that now only served to fill the youth with discomfort.

Shion blinked; Iphigenia's explanation of his quirk's function bordered on mere technobabble for him. In through one ear, and out the other."Okay."Mental command? He didn't really "order" Toto to do anything per se, they just did what he thought in his head. Manifesting? Subconscious? Erratic brain activity? Shion didn't quite get it, besides the part that this was all taking place within his head.He was never good at biology. Or science in general. Thinking back to high school, how he passed the tests was just memorizing everything then throwing it back up when needed."Uh huh. . . so it's all in my head?"Christmas? Wasn't it a bit early?No, not the time for that yet! Instead of fruit cake, Shion's head appeared to be filled with something else entirely. A specific object that caused him to sweat a little, obviously a decision on how much to say or reveal for this person."Well. . . Toto came in a little late for me. I was like 17 when they first came, and I think sis' had a quirk like mine- but she got it a lot earlier. I think she was 5?"The way he said it obviously came across as a facade of calm to someone as perceptive as the hero Recall. He did a good job of speaking normally, but the beads of sweat from before were still there.

"Oh- okay."Shion's expression appeared understanding, yet at the same time staring right into Farrin's eyes as if he knew the full picture had yet to be revealed.But that was the Time Turner's business and no one else's. He wouldn't pry for now.Toto didn't visibly react to the mention of them and their power, the smoke from the cigarette sticking out from their body slowly getting weaker as the fire burned out."Yeah, Toto's a real MVP! Fast as a motorbike!"The youth turned around, stepping aside to reveal the alien while looking down at them fondly. Lethargically, Toto made the smallest of reactions, moving their eyes to look back up at their companion."Not really good for winning fights though, see these? All from when I got my but kicked!"Shion refocused on Farrin, pointing out the various bandages covering their face and arms.But despite the evidence of these losses, he didn't seem ashamed or even sad about them. The smile on his face showed that he at least held the belief that things. . . or rather his ability to stand on his own, would get better."You know by now why I'm here, right? Your reputation makes you sound like one of the strongest guys on campus! Just wanted to ask about your experiences and stuff, that's all! No training or anything, since I don't wanna' push on some poor knob that didn't sleep well!"A chipper attitude belied the rather serious request. Of the leagues of danger that Farrin had supposedly survived to be so successful. Unlike many others that came to him, the mind than the body appeared to take precedent to this redhead.

Soft flesh surrounded the transformed Antoine's wrist as he turned to leave. As if to say "wait". Gently.It was a dangerous move on the youth's part, since he was well aware of what the man could do to him if he wished. But like a simpleton that knew no fear, Shion's touch was full of trust that the worst would not come to pass."If I approach you in the future without a seed- that's not me. You'll know what to do then."The stark implications covered his words like frost on tender moss. Cold to the touch, piercing the skin like an invisible piece of glass."You'll probably recognize my sister at that point as well. . . but, Goodbye."Comment te dire adieu.As he turned around and let go, walking away, Shion wished he knew a better way to say farewell. Not as one would say to a friend, or even an enemy. What was needed was a "goodbye" just for people who you felt the strongest ambivalence towards.Judging by the looks of it, the orange sun looked like it was about to bid farewell to them both.
But the sky would stay, just as it always has.

They have a mental link to each other, being able to share vision and hearing freely. Toto is also able to act independently of Shion as long as his quirk is active. Toto is often used as a vehicle and weapon by Shion. This range of control is comparable to a medium-sized town or village. They are able to fly, and can carry a maximum of 3 people at a single time (with reduced speed due to weight). Toto also possesses the durability of steel across their entire body, as they aren't actually a broom but simply a broom-shaped creature that uses the object as a medium.

A final capability is that Toto is able to extend "stingers" out of their legs which are a few extra inches in length, similar to a jellyfish. "Stinging" a target allows them to attack the mind, exposing them to a vision that is considered to be Toto's "origin" as a quirk.

Bright eyes grew dark, slowly widening upon the indirect recollection of events. The feeling of colorless slime covering his entire body as the broomstick he had used for years, broken beside him. While Shion thought then that it had been done out of spite, the event seemed to be a gateway to the end.It was like when you expected a punch to the gut, but it still hurt when it made contact. You could feel what was inside being shaken, the bile, blood, and water within being smashed together as the walls which separated them broke down.A scream wouldn't have been out of the ordinary, far from it. "That's. . . mean. I just met everyone, too."He said in a facsimile of calm, voice shaking harder than trees in a typhoon.It wasn't clear from the outside what this information meant for Shion, and Antoine didn't seem to get an explanation.A silence rested between them. One unlike the one from the fight before. Rather than tension and fire, morosity like rain draped over the youth who was born in bright colors.But like a bowl with a crack in it that had yet to break, it could still hold rice to feed the starving man. The spoon would smack into Ghouligan's mouth, far from a gentle touch."Y-You liar."The hand twisted the spoon, bending it into a smile on Shion's face as he muttered the rebuke. "The way you say that is just like. . . her. I can hear so much behind it, but you won't tell me anything. Why? Is there something you're scared of?"

Surprisingly, there didn't appear to be much conflict in the youth's face at this point. Satisfaction was uncertain, but if he left at the point, he wouldn't return empty-minded."That's easy. I shouldn't outlive even someone like you."Shion's answer was calm, the prospect of dying in place of a murderer not seeming to disturb him.Yes, the chance for influence- perhaps even dominance, was still present. Though at the same time, the power of the body didn't always match that of the mind. Would Ghouligan remember that? Even if there was a fork in the road, one could simply walk off it into the wilderness. A dangerous path to take, but still an option many forget."That's true- though I'm not ready yet. But when I get there, I'll probably get accustomed to it. I know I'll have to make hard decisions."Despite being as far from friendliness as they were from the sky, white feathers of understanding still floated through the airy lake above them both."Living your life like this- it must take a lotta' conviction. Did something happen to you?"

The sun, the air, and even both their breathing seemed to hold completely still. For someone with more than 70 years left to live, youngsters like themselves always rushed head-first into danger.Shion's unflinching eyes squinted, the words seeming to make his theoretical flesh shrivel up like a slug."How about. . . no? Even if I could, you wouldn't be worth killing."The hook with the bait on it had wounded the fish, but the bait itself remained there- untouched. Water would be reddened with the blood of hurtful memory, and the fisherman was still empty handed.Illusion may have made up the distance, but even an illusion was real to the individual in a subjective sense. While obviously seeming hurt by the recalling of events, the youth only continued to look at Antoine."And that's why it's justified for you. To make the world better, you go outside the system and kill those abusing it. Because you can't see any other way."Shion crossed his arms, maintaining a guarded demeanor despite seeming to understand the logic behind Ghouligan's actions."But how do you know you're right? What's keeping people like you in check from killing just about anyone for any reason?"

Not knowing made one a fool. But to know that one did not know, made them less of one.The response to his question, followed by the assumption of Shion's immaturity irked him. With the lack of self-preservation that Ghouligan couldn't understand manifesting again, the youth walked closer towards the taller man, forcing him to look directly at him."How stupid do you think I am?! Of course killing is necessary sometimes, I'm not a child! I know that!"Magenta hair, now made red by the rays of the setting sun, blocked the source of it all. His face was darkened by the position of light, but the cracks of frustration were easy to see."And you're not special- I have a line too, everyone does if they have a heart! I just don't know where it is. . . what, do you think I just came here to kill time?!"Shion's eyes stared in defiance, just like on that day weeks ago when they first met. His body hadn't grown any stronger since last time, but his will hasn't crumbled either."I'm not expecting you to give the whole answer I need- but if it's just a small piece of the full picture you got, I'll damn well take it! I'm only beginning to uncover this whole thing, it's dangerous- I know, but I can't stop now!"He wasn't even sure there was a conspiracy, there simply was no way to prove it now. But what he was sure of was that the world wasn't what it seemed to be. And that somehow these "bad" people didn't bother to kill him.
Eventually, Shion realized how loud he was being. And cooled down somewhat, answering the question in a way."But yeah. . . your answer matters. It matters a lot to me."This wasn't normal, none of this was normal. And he was going to find out why.

[Now Playing: Updowncity!]"It's okay to be sad- but ya' can't just stay mopey about your problems forever! The present exists because we also have the past and the future!"I turned my head, only to see a hand similar to mine touching the head of the mother Florician. "Besides, if you wanna be reborn ya' gotta work for it! The wheel doesn't move if you stay in one place!"What were these words? What was this voice full of positivity that was both mine and not mine? And why were they saying these simple platitudes as if they'd fix everything?"So don't think too hard about what you can't do- Try and cheer up about what you can change, and what you could become! Believe it or not, everything's always growing! It never stops!"I peered from underneath the bill of my conductor's hat, only to see a strangely dressed girl who was just like myself in appearance- trying to encourage the struggling mother.
Where did she come from? How did she even get in? This tram was in deep space!"Wha-"I stuttered, bumping against the closed door behind me as I witnessed this development full of conflicting emotions and characters.
The strange girl seemed to notice me, skipping over to my direction with a smile that seemed to keep her feet from touching the ground. She was stepping on thin air, as if she were a fairy.
This embodiment of a puffy, frilly enigma "landed" in front of me, smiling down at my look of confusion with an innocent face and large eyes."Was wondering when you'd come, thought the ol' train conductor was sick because he's a few minutes off!""Huh?!""Speaking of, I'm a lil' confused as to how this is possible- you haven't thought of me as an idea yet!" "What?" "Oooor, maybe you just did! I could have been born when you walked through that door!""Uh-" "But no time to waste, we gotta get to the next cart! Vroom vroom!"Taking my hand, the girl physically yanked me with incredible force, running down the path before her and practically bursting through the next set of doors. I was too bewildered to protest, much less resist.
But at the same time, something told me that I knew her already.

Even if Shion did answer at first, it wasn't likely that Ghouligan would accept it.And how could he forget about what the vigilante put him through? The still-healing cuts and bruises beneath his bandages reminded him every day of his multiple struggles. On that night, Antoine had taken the fragile doll into his hands and squeezed it, squeezed it to the point that cracks were on the torso and flimsy limbs were falling out. Cracks could be mended back together, but some would never truly disappear. A flaw for every prospector and customer to turn their nose at.To say resentment wasn't in the heart would be a lie- only that the curiosity was far greater than it.But in the moment that the second question parted from the lips of the skull, the youth lifted his head as a look of realization conquered what weakness remained prior.Life without knowledge was palpable. But life without wisdom was just cruel."You. . . don't know. That's why you didn't kill me."He could have done it, but he didn't. Shion could feel that he was growing closer to knowing what exactly stayed Ghouligan's hand."But then why did you kill the lawyer? What made it fine to kill him but not me?"Answering a question with a question, one of the oldest ways to show that you didn't have an answer yourself. But there was no fear or shame of this in Shion's eyes. If it allowed him to understand Antoine, he might just accept appearing as a fool.

In a swift motion, one of many spine-like legs grabbed ahold of the cigarette that was only halfway spent. "Ah, Toto-"The alien creature that was Shion's companion "stood" by his feet, rustling his forest of twigs to let the cigarette nestle in a nook they had made. It definitely wasn't where the mouth was located, but it made it appear that Toto had more of a face than before in the way they held it. Smoke went up in a thin line from them, occasionally broken by the cool breeze.Though, Shion had no time to scold his friend before the exact person he was waiting for arrived. The scenery immediately losing the mysticality it carried from a solitary occupant. A different magic would take hold, however.Farrin would see a pale face, Caucasoid in shape and complexion attached to a slim body. The face gave a light smile as it's bearer fully turned around, arms behind their back. Trying to hide Toto behind them."You're finally here! I thought U.A.'s Time-Turner was sick 'cause you didn't show up when ya' always did."Despite never interacting much with what he considered the "upper clique" of U.A., Shion didn't feel all that guarded when speaking with the Irish boxer. Despite having the notoriety of being one of the strongest fighters on campus, Farrin didn't come across as someone too volatile when spoken to.His smile became a look of concern as the man's raspy voice reached his ears, the obvious bags underneath the eyes showing a lack of sleep. Only having slept 6 hours due to waking up at this ungodly hour, Shion didn't expect Farrin out of all people to have lost sleep if he was so used to the early morning."Well, yeah. That's what I'm here for. But I gotta ask, are you okay?"Expecting a straight answer from a sick person was like thinking the ocean wouldn't be salty. Just that unlikely. Moreover, you couldn't put a saltwater fish into freshwater. Though, perhaps a fish like Farrin was simply built different.

[Now Playing: Yoru no Himawari]A cool wind blew through the grass, in the darkly haze of the training grounds, carrying with it a white smoke that soon joined the clouds above. It was 5 in the morning, during which none but a few students would be awake."Fuuh-"The youth looked to the sky, standing atop a certain hill which lacked its most consistent occupant. Rammed into a path-like state below him by the months of constant training, the ground had a certain coldness that reached through Shion's sneakers.Shion sipped on the dew drops from the night before, savoring it like a tea from porcelain. Though he wasn't a morning person, the few times he was able to will himself up this early felt worth it every time. If only it didn't cost him hours of sleep!Sometimes all I need. . .
Is some cigarettes
The sky
And a nice dress! The past month had been nothing short of a disaster for Shion. Losing more fights than he'd like to admit, being in and out of the hospital, and seeing things that felt like they would leave a scar on his brain. His purpose of seeking out a conversation was one of the way he was trying to cope, but a combination of that while treating oneself could have been the apt prescription!Deciding to try a less ambiguous look for once, he had picked out a blue denim jacket with a long white skirt- both being on sale. It wasn't a new combination at all, one that was in style over 50 years ago. Based on some girl in a light novel that was all the rage back then.Waiting patiently for the notorious student to arrive, Shion took a drag from the lit cigarette only to begin coughing frantically."G-Guh! How do people do this in French movies?! This tastes terrible!"Oh well, he could maybe keep trying later. Or just wait for the thing to burn out so he could pocket it. So much for "soothing the nerves," he thought.

A blessing in disguise was that he had already gone cold by the third or fourth impact to his head. However, Laoro did not stop. Shion had decided to be taken seriously as a threat, and arguably got what he wanted. Even if it came at the cost of his life. Blow after blow came to his head, like a smith's hammer shaping hot iron, it bent the alloys that made up the youth's skull. . . No, it was more than simply bent. The red sea that had flowed out from the point of impact was clear enough for that. But before even more damage could be done, a barrier had formed between the criminal's sole and Shion's head. In an act of self-preservation, Toto used what opportunity they had to wrap themselves around the head in a protective fashion, making use of their innate durability to block any further attacks. The alien had formed a stone which Laoro could not break. Not at his current level of power. Toto's eyes faced towards his general direction, emotionless, and without judgement. There was no hate, malice, or any human emotion to be seen in their eyes. Just like on that day when Callisto held him in his arms, that morning where the sky was just as blue as today.
