[Another memory, the swirling coins -no Cell Medals- surrounding the glowing Cores, laughter and a face like that of a shark's. Grabbing for the chest, for the Cores glittering in the center of that mass, needing, wanting, never whole you will never be whole.
He didn't need this now, instead Ankh rubbed her back, making a strange cooing sound that shouldn't be normal for any human before realizing what he was doing.]
We can't do anything against that now. He's... he's like the King of my dreams. I couldn't stop him either, but the thing with those kind of people is that they will have an opening sooner or later. We have to keep our heads down and keep quiet until they drop their guards.
Don't say that. Never say that. If you say it too many times, then you believe and...
[There was that voice again, the one he sometimes got that seemed to nag at him whenever he was being particularly nasty towards other people. Ankh echoed the words he was hearing.]
If you don't reach out your hand, if you don't even try, then how can you know that you are not able to do anything?
That makes it sound like there's a trigger, doesn't it? That you're getting controlled because if you thought it always, you wouldn't be acting this way now.
Then keep your head down, don't get too out of focus and if anything weird happens - talking in tongues to weird hair color - act like it's something that you did in your spare time.
[Ankh switched languages, going from his sharp English to a guttural harsh language that was a close cousin to German. He hugged her to show he wasn't ignoring her.]
You may know just a snippet or it will get all confusing at first but it will get better and it doesn't get forgotten. Trust your gut about anything you suddenly can do. It's a part of us.
[He hesitates for a moment, turning slightly to look at the small teen curled against him. She wanted... well, she wanted to be loved and cherished. He could taste it and he could feel that it was a strong desire, something that was worthy for something. He couldn't name what it was, but he could hear the phantom calling of those coins again.]
That's because there is something missing. The guy in the silver mask said that we're missing something and it may come back to us.
The less I know, the less someone can force it outta me, you know?
[Not that he expected to get told by the guy anything more then stuff he had guessed. Because he did guess a little, especially when things were seeming too strange just for random dreams from too much work and stress. Especially when the Taka Medal formed above his arm the first time he ran into Silver.]
Bad enough they can make us kill, it would be worse if they took away what little information that can answer what is happening with us.
I think something more than what happened at the party.
[There was a slight huff because she should think of this herself after all. But she was upset and scared and Ankh shouldn't let that ruffle his feathers too much.]

[Yeah no that's a terrible memory Nia is falling apart again.] I'm scared. What if he wants us to kill people again?

I am very afraid Mr. Blanche made it seem like he can.

We'll see just what he can and can't do. Meanwhile, don't draw attention to yourself or we'll find out if he can order us to act that way again.

I don't want to draw attention at all.

I mean in our personal lives.
