The Ironblood and the Reaper (Azur Lane) [Completed]

The Darkness

Every single time. 

I feel like I fuck it up.

How?

Not to mention, my life is probably soon to end anyways.

Reapers are meant to control the cycle of life via death. 

Yet I'm betraying them.

A Reaper is weak once they start to have emotions.

I'm feeling emotion.

I'm feeling weaker as well.

Death will become its own undoing, huh?

Nico wakes up and heads to the cafeteria.

Bismarck: Somethings up. Nico usually isn't like this.

Bismarck follows Nico to the cafeteria.

Nico gets his food and then hears someone behind him.

Nico: Who is it.....oh Bismarck.

Bismarck: Can I sit with you?

Nico: *sigh* sure.

Bismarck went and sat down with Nico.

Bismarck: You look worried.

Nico: It's nothing.

Bismarck: I can tell it is.

Bismarck put on a serious tone in front of Nico for the first time since they were strategizing.

Nico: Follow me.

Bismarck followed Nico into his room.

Bismarck: Tell me, please.

Nico: *sigh* The Reapers are here-were here, to keep the cycle of life in order. Meaning they had to kill without second thought. Hell one Reaper hesitated and that single handedly kept Adolf Hitler alive. We Reapers slowly deteriorate if we feel emotion. We become, how do I say it? Inferior? Outcast? Weak? So we are discarded. Since no one can discard of me, I'll die a slow painful death. Hell the emotions part is why the cubes exist, because we could make new entities without reproduction via Reapers.

Bismarck: So....you're a lost cause.....

Sadness overcame Bismarck.

Nico: *sigh* Yeah.....death being its own undoing.

Bismarck: Yeah.....

Nico: Why does Akagi fight?

Bismarck: She lost her sister Amagi.

*Nico* Idea, a stupid one, but an idea non the less.
