[USEC_OFFICER]

-snip-

Hakim is in his combat armour, of course, so he turns to face the source of the eyes. He settles into his combat stance and activates his Booster so that he hovers slightly above the ground, fists up and ready for anything. As he waits for something to happen, Hakim sets up Support Defend on Winry, just in case.

"Any particular reason?" he hesitated as he remembered his duties "I could get you something"

"Because I'm a horrible monster? Because everybody would be better off without me? I dunno... There's a bunch of different reasons why I'm down here. Take your pick." Dalia ignores his offer to get her anything. It's pretty obvious that she just wants to be alone to mope, and so she doesn't want anything at the moment.

((Sorry about that, muscle memory. Definitely not the first time it's happened, that's for sure.))

[Kansa]

Elliot studied the girl,
"You don't really seem like a monster."

[USEC_OFFICER]

"Only on the outside. On the inside I'm definitely a monster," Dalia counters. "Plus I leak misfortune and hurt everybody around me... That's pretty monsterous too."

[Kansa]

"You don't do it on purpose do you?"

[USEC_OFFICER]

"I dunno. I try not to... Though that doesn't change anything. I'm still a monster."

[PrivateNomad]

Winry technomances a 100-statbase turret.
"Erecting a sentry!"

[Kansa]

Elliot tilted his head slightly,
"Not really, if you try not to."

[USEC_OFFICER]

"Yeah... But that doesn't change what I am in on the inside... I'm still a monster, even if it's not on purpose and junk."

[Kansa]

Elliot crouched down, his eyes still masked under the curtain of hair.
"We all have monstrous things about us, if it's something you can't help you aren't a monster"

[USEC_OFFICER]

Dalia sighs and grumbles, "I know that. But it doesn't make me feel any better about all of the stuff I've caused and what I am. Everybody would be better off without me."

[Kansa]

"It doesn't but I would ask them"

[USEC_OFFICER]

"I already know what their answers would be... And it'll just make me feel worse about myself. So what's the point?"

[Kansa]

Elliot shrugged,
"To know. You have nothing to lose by asking."

[USEC_OFFICER]

Dalia finally looks up at Elliot and asks, "Were you even paying attention? I said that I already know what their answers would be. So I already know. Geez, it's not that complicated..."

[Kansa]

"And what would their answers be?"
