002 ✝ second step [action/video]

[After this fiasco, Nill has removed herself from the house in order to both save herself some embarrassment and come to grips with a few things.]

[One, she somehow had been transformed into Haine. Nobody else had turned into people that were in Luceti (Badou was a cigarette for crying out loud), and yet there she was. In the body of the man who had saved her life. Two, Haine had vocal chords, and she could speak. It felt like cheating, though: using somebody else's voice when she had been born unable to make a sound. She felt so guilty every time she said something.]

[Three, there was someone talking to her. In her head. Something dark and scary and mean.]

[Isn't this fun? You're definitely not him, but we'll get along anyway, won't we? ...Hmmm... you haven't held a gun before. We can change that.]

[Nill drops her journal, starting up the video feed, and she slides down the wall of the alley she's hidden herself in and curls up to cry. How humiliating, how embarrassing... poor Haine, poor Haine...]
