"Don't touch her," said Ian stepping forward and stopping Haley. Ian observed the kid as he came closer to her. Every instinct in him told him that this kid in front of him was ⨊. Like the time when he was Kian, even though he didn't remember her he followed her around. Even though she was in a male form. Even though he couldn't see her appearance due to the scars and she had no energy or atmosphere or any familiarity. He remembered the time when ⨊ was weak and had lost her atmosphere making her appear normal and weak, just like any other being.
When he got close to the kid, it looked up in his direction. Allowing him to see her white eyes, showing him that she was blind. ℥enji had once told him that even if she was weak or didn't remember anything, the one thing that she could always sense was peoples intention towards her. He slowly knelt down to her level, releasing his gentle atmosphere. Revealing to her that he had no malicious intent towards her. He took off his coat and wrapped her with it, carefully picking her up and holding her close to him in a gentle embrace.
(Did I attract a weirdo?) ⨊ was confused by the person's behavior. He didn't run away after seeing her appearance, but instead held her in a gentle manner. Suddenly an image of Ian appeared in her mind. Considering the last thing she thought about was him before leaving that place. (This person...No...impossible.) ⨊ forced herself to see, even if it was just a glance. When she saw the person holding her, she froze. (Even if it is him, I look entirely different and have no atmosphere. It would be impossible for him to realize it's me. I just have to remain ignorant.) ⨊ tried to convince herself to calm down, shutting off her sight again.
