Regret (Angel)

"Then that's the difference between him and I. While he didn't think once there, I did. That's fundamentally what's different in these situations." Maybe it was true that what Rita did appeared sudden, but this was something she had planned out beforehand, not a spontaneous idea that just appeared in her mind. Hyde could have done well to take a moment in order to better understand the situation he was in, and the fact that he didn't made it blow up. In this, Rita had already considered her options to figure out the best path. That's why she asked for a spar, a training match, and not a full-blown fight.

"I wouldn't be surprised at this point. Both of us aren't that big of team players." Rita chuckled after nodding to both Sharaku's words and Angel's. Truthfully, she didn't really know whether Oki would be against this or not... but they said before that they weren't against the Angels either, they were considering their options before coming to a definite conclusion. Besides, Oki being on another Angel's side meant they had more power to defeat the Primordials together. Rita wouldn't discriminate.

"I'm hoping to keep up this alliance until the Primordials are gone... differing views when it comes to Angels aren't my priority, though I still stand by saying that I'll place my trust in Oki-san, regardless of who they're aligned with. If push comes to shove, well... we'll see." Though she frowned slightly at Sharaku's comment, she nodded, afterwards letting herself be grabbed by Angel. This... was interesting. The silvernette closed her eyes, then opened them again, slowly blinking.

"An Angel's power is definitely interesting... you'll have to tell me more about this later."

Rita chuckled lightly, her tone having changed slightly from her usual one. "What were we saying again? Though, I guess there's no harm done. Thank you for calling me out, though, Sharaku. I appreciate it when someone is there to keep me in check." The silvernette smirked, closing her eyes. "What now, then? I have plans for later tonight, but is there something you want to do until then? Both of you, naturally. Angel, is there anything I should do for you?" She seemed to be... grateful, even, for the blessing, but mostly, her disposition changed to a more relaxed one. Without her knowing, even Nero seemed to appear next to her for a moment, smirking before vanishing again. It would be brief, but anyone who was looking at her could see the Persona for that moment. Were both of them affected by this blessing?

''Maybe. But it would also have to count for the rest of the team then. There is no saying how much they think their actions through, compared to you.'', he would state simply. Yes, Rita maybe did, but it wasn't all about her, was it now? If it's a team, then you should consider all members. She wasn't like Hyde. He knew that. But it didn't mean that was enough to avert that kind of problem. Oki..he wasn't sure. But Rin did seem like the more jumpy type. Would she think or not? Either way, it wasn't possible to guess that far into the future, so whatever.

Ah well. ''Can't oppose. I know I don't do the best with teams. Perhaps we are both wrong.'' It was certainly possible that Angel was right. What did he know? He would admit that he wasn't the best at knowing what was the best teamplay. As a matter of fact, he didn't really think there was actually a best way to manage a team. Everyone's style was different, as well as what worked for them. Opinions would differ no matter what you did. He didn't really have much to say towards the next part. ''Hm. Well..Oki is..'', he would simply trail off, letting it be. Eh, whatever. Not the most important matter right now.

That in mind, he would let Angel hold onto his hand, watching casually. Hmm, what? He would stare ahead, a little bit confused. Honestly...''It's..strange? I don't know. Though, not bad, I guess.'' Or maybe he was just crazy. It did feel different, yes, but it was hard to tell what exactly happened. He would smile thinly when Rita spoke up. ''Better get used to it then. I point things out a lot, I suppose.'' And most people were actually annoyed by such. He would blink. ''Not..really? I wasn't planning for anything when I came here, so I don't know.'' He just wanted to know what was going on with Rita after that incident on Malstu, that was all. He didn't really take the time to think the rest of the day through, seeing as he had no idea how long would he spend here to begin with. Doesn't matter either way. And he did notice Rita's Persona out of the corner of his eye..well, a lot of white at least, but he didn't dwell on it much, as he was kind of interrupted anyway. ''Hmm..'', he would frown a little, as he glanced at his arm. Well, as much as he could. Figures there was a reason why something felt off.

''Is that supposed to be some sort of new fashion trend..?''

Though, he didn't really mind. Alas, it was a little..unexpected? Ah well. He would look back at Angel afterwards. Speaking of new things...''Mind if I ask one more question? These..blessings as you call them. Can the other Angels tell a person has one on them? Or two people that have it being able to tell the other does as well? Or do we still have to rely on being told and such?'' Well, something like that would be helpful, if nothing else. Though, it could also be bad if the other person decided to go after you because of it. Hm. Either way, he just wanted to know if anything changed in regards to that.

Angel grinned. “Don’t ask me what needs to be done, I am certain you know by now what you have to do. An Angel will know if you are aligned with someone else. Though, you may find that if you meet someone aligned with an Angel, you may feel an odd sensation, like you both are being repelled like magnets.” She explained as best as she could. “However, it won’t be immediate. You have to have at least met with them and begun to form a bond with them. When people get used to one another, they are suddenly drawn to what sets them apart, much like any normal human. That will be no exception when you learn to know them…don’t be afraid of this new sensation….I have been amongst them for a long time, and I don’t think we or they have genuine contempt for Humans. Trust yourself alright? If that is how you feel this world should move forward, then so it shall be. Do your best,” she said with a small smile, and listless eyes.

"Like magnets? That's quite a way to look at things, I suppose. I wonder how others will react to this... it's certainly a useful way of finding out who exactly is with an Angel, even if we don't know which." That's all Rita really had to say. There wasn't much she could address about Sharaku's previous points and, well... she figured neither of them were really up for continuing that discussion.

"That's reassuring." She just chuckled lightly at Sharaku's response, then nodded at the other one. Angel's too, really, as she included both in her understanding. "I suppose I have a plan, then. A certain Fallen Angel has been eluding me for a while now... it's about time I find out what exactly he left behind, if anything. I can't imagine someone could have hastily removed their possessions from a buried school, but it's always possible." Mostly now, she was speaking to herself, trailing off for a bit before shaking her head. No, that was a story for another time, she didn't need to go so into detail right now.

"I know the Primordials are able to somehow sense the Angels in us... but about other Angels, I have no clue. Speaking of that... Angel, I noticed something odd in my encounter with Ananke. He referred to someone I know, Simon Alba, by the moniker of Fallen Angel. I don't suppose you know what he meant?" This was possibly continuing off her banter from before, she simply adopted that name to quickly refer to the man, but there was a possibility that Angel knew something about him too. Who knew? Hearing the nickname, it wouldn't be outlandish for them to at least know of each other, if nothing else. It was... a final question of hers, you could say, she was about ready to leave, at this point, but this bit was something she just wanted to know about at the last second.

Subject: Re: Regret (Angel) Wed Jul 29, 2015 6:18 am

Magnets? Well, that was...an interesting way to describe something. But it answered his question regardless. Even though one would still have to ask to know exactly which Angel, it was still a plus...in certain situations. Some people may not be nice to those that aren't on the same side. Then again..maybe they wouldn't even know they should be able to tell from feeling? Things like these seemed to only be told to you when you asked. ''I see. It makes sense. Though, you speak of feeling the difference...what if the person we meet is under you as well? Is it different? I figure that there were others that joined you before from the way you spoke of your Wish at first.'' He could make a guess, but asking is always a better option. And he liked to be precise when he already began with a subject that he had interest in.

He would frown a little when Rita changed the subject. He wasn't really following her mutterings. Fallen Angel..? He didn't think he heard that before. Though, the name itself. He knew he at least saw that somewhere before, if nothing else. But it didn't enlighten him too much. Eh, well. ''Are you going to try to break into the school..?'', he would inquire towards Rita. That was the only thing he really got from her talks that he understood properly. He figured it was still closed. Even when the major heat problem was gone. Hm. Couldn't they just shovel the sand away? Or was it not possible? It wasn't as if the other side was really a threat anymore, now that Israfel was back to normal. What was the police doing except for guarding everything?

"It's not really different. But you'll know." Angel looked to Rita, taken aback noticeably by the phrase "Fallen Angel". Her lip trembled, then turn into an uncharacteristically angered face. She even said the name Simon Alba no less. Angel turned away. "You will learn nothing about that from me. He strayed from a path I thought we would...." she trailed off, losing her glare and gaining an incredibly pained face in exchange. It looked as though she did not want to speak much more about the subject. Her eyes almost glistened with water at the mention of his name. What would be so touchy about the man that it would evoke such a reaction? She shook her head. "It's a subject that I hope should not become necessary to discuss.....but you mentioned it. Find information about it on your own if you would; I don't intend to say anything else about that man." That could only mean one thing to her...she ran a hand over her face to calm herself down. "Anything else?"

Finding Angel's answer to Sharaku's question enough, Rita simply closed her eyes while she continued on. Hm, she certainly didn't expect that. "I see. I'm sorry I asked, but it's been bothering me for a long while. If it makes you so uncomfortable, I won't ask you it again... but Angel, you can trust me. I joined you because I found that our views align quite a bit, and I don't just mean our Reason. We can be friends too, right? If you ever need to talk, I'm not just here to make our Wish come true. You're just like any other friend to me... and I don't usually say that to people who aren't humans." The silvernette chuckled slightly, approaching Angel and putting a hand on her shoulder. Honestly... the blessing she had given them seemed to be helping her at this point. She could stay calm nonetheless even right now. Rita just beamed a smile at Angel, as pure yet still as characteristic of her as a full-blown smirk was...

"Well now... if I'm going to be blunt, basically, yes. I've said why already... and I won't mention it in this room since Angel doesn't want to hear it. If it's anything that needs anyone's attention, I'll come back to it in a meeting later, don't worry. This is just a job better suited for only one person." Letting her hand fall to her side again, Rita shook her head as she turned away from Angel, her smile turning more wry. Was she feeling regret over asking that question? Who knew... probably so. Regardless, she simply headed for the exit, stopping right next to it.

"Well... I'm off for now. I have a long day ahead of me. Angel... be careful. And Sharaku, if you need my help, call me or text me... I'll find time for you." Shaking her head while letting her smile fade, Rita stepped out of the Waiting Room, almost with a frown. Though... she was out. If Sharaku followed her, she wouldn't be there, already having gone off, most likely. She was fast, but now, it wasn't like she was running out on her own. This was preparation for something that she needed to do. Something she... really, seriously needed to do. Though, maybe something else needed to be done too... well, hopefully, Sharaku would exit soon enough.

Know, eh? Well, guess he would have to try. He wasn't particularly planning on hunting down other people that worked with Angel. Not on purpose, at least. Unless he needed them for a reason later on. He would frown a little, at the way Angel reacted to Rita's question. That was...rather unexpected. Was he that big of a deal then? He didn't know much about the guy, aside from the name...and now the nickname. And partially his appearance..? From the fact that Rita said he was around for Ananke..and that Rin mentioned some guy with glasses in regards to it before as well, he'd figure it was the same guy. Then again, glassess weren't exactly the best indicator to follow. Hm. Who was he, however? The way Angel reacted...she knew him, at least. Fallen Angel. Wasn't that a name used for an Angel that fell from grace or something? That almost implied...as if he had been one of them in the past. And then..turned against them or so. Which could explain why was Angel torn like this. And if it was so..then it was probably no good..?

''Well, I suppose we'll deal with that when it comes. Don't worry about it for now if you don't want to.'' Though, as it was, they would probably have to deal with the guy. He sounded like a problem already, depending on what he was up to. Great. Not exactly the curveball they needed. And somehow, he doubted it would be a smooth ride. From what had been said, this Simon..seemed like he wasn't really a human. At least not completely. He would look at Rita. ''Just be careful then. I don't think they'd appreciate someone busting into the school. We don't need you to get arrested or such.'' He knew there would be no way to stop her even if he wanted to. And they admittably needed some information in the end. She better not be too careless though. For all they knew, the police could be quite a pain in these matters.

He would look after her as she left. ''I guess so...'' There was nothing to say, really. ''Well, she left me alone again.'', he would huff slightly, mostly joking, however. Ah well. ''In any case, I suppose I should go find something to do as well. Take care for now, Angel. Perhaps I'll be back to talk later.'', he would say with a thin smile, giving her a nod before getting out himself. Just to see Rita ran off on him again. Did she ever stop for a moment? It wasn't as if he even took long to follow her out. So much for that. Hm...now what..?
