“Bullshit.”
Xiao turned back to face us,tears still falling down his face.
“I’m only saying this once,you dolt. Look,being human is...not logical. Not in the faintest. You are fit to be overseer a hell of a lot more than Xion was,and you know as well as Matoi does that she was great and i miss her,but she tried to condemn herself to a role she wasn’t meant to be in. Her purpose was never that of a simple observer. She was meant to change to very world around her. And she did,albeit i suspect not the way she was originally supposed to. And..you aren’t either. You still aren’t fit to be the admin of ARKS,not for your humanity,but because you are just as unsuited for staying on the sidelines as Xion was.”
“I..”
“And by the way,you are damn far from a copy. You’re her brother,not a clone. You introduced yourself as such,after all.”
Xiao sniffled and gave a shaky smile.
“I..thank you,i suppose. I kinda needed that...”
There was a brief silence as Xiao attempted to collect himself.
“Regardless..i’m stepping down after all’s said and done..and we still have work to do before we can save her.”
And that is one of the several reasons the fic this is attached to is an AU. I can get away with making people more out of character,under the pretense of an alternate universe with different characters entirely.
+i also get to bust out fun,weird,revision-needing speeches at 12am to put in my writings. So that’s fun. ..if only that was actually enjoyable when i HAVE to do it.
