There is nothing left in him; she can see it in his eyes.
At first, she doesn't know who he is, but he knows who she is. From afar he has watched her, concentrated on every move she has made, attempted to figure out what words have escaped her lips. He is obsessed with her – she is peculiar. "Peculiar" as in "different". But who is he to talk about what is "different" and what is not?
He is puzzled. She doesn't fight, like she should. He expects her to draw out that horrible blade from her belt and tear human bodies apart. She does not though. Instead she dares herself: sins. She speaks to the enemy. Mingles with them as if they are like her.
If he had had any idea what she was going to be to him then, he would have ran.
He spots her with the Rockbells. A daunting, white mask is across her mouth, shielding herself from causing infection. A terrifying, scarlet liquid is splattered across her clothes, making her look inhumane. She doesn't quiver at all. He pukes. She is unnaturally strong, mentally. He has seen her create ungodly surgeries. He has seen her hold down a patient that fidgets violently, whilst a Rockbell performs his/her betrayal.
She never catches him. She is oblivious to his red eyes boring into her. He is instantly afraid of her and of what she can do. – he begins to wonder what she is, if she is anything.
He strangely respects her.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The commanding ladder was longer than he had anticipated. Somehow, though, he has picked her up and carried her to the furthest step he can reach. Her rank shoots too fast; too sudden. He realises the only reason she has become so far is because of him – and he feels like a tool. Does she not respect him? Did she use him to bring herself higher?
It isn't true.
She had fought her own battles to have him beside her. He has been oblivious to the new found bruises and cuts across her white flesh. She has defended him behind his back, and has received awful, awful remarks in return. But she is like ice. He shivers and feels so terribly sympathetic for her. She shows a cold soul, but inside does she break?
His energy has been drained from him. All he feels is a strong emotion towards her. A family has been absent his whole life, and he wants to reach out and grab her, and make her a part of him.
She has dragged him into this military life, without his opinion. She has given him a life. She had many to pick from – she spots him before the death camp does.
A message she has shown in so many ways is finally read through him. He is her message. He is what makes her so different from any other typical commanding officer.
She is the stupid one.
It is unheard of to have an Ishavalan – half blooded or not – beside an Amestrian. It is vile to have an Ishvalan as a colleague – it makes people sick to know she accepts him as a friend. She places him at her right hand. The chair behind. He is in charge beside her. She has created a sin of her own.
