Crusandwich[Maria]

"Right." Get stronger so the slaughter of the spawn of satan and the unforgiven may continue. That's all he was good at and all he'd ever do. Until the end, and by then he will only have Lamina Sanctus by his side. After all, no one else could ever share the same bond him and the angel have. The two have been linked and are the same person now. "You have done nothing wrong, its just who we are." He'd fall silent after that, eventually their food would and arrive and Albrecht... just remained in silence. Unless Maria started a conversation he'd be absorbed in his own thoughts while eating until he was done.

Maria had no words.

How can she, anyway? In the end, they reaffirmed their fears about themselves. They couldn't be people, not for long. They had no answer to this, the only path was paved in blood and steel.

None she can spare for this awkward silence. She wanted this to be a nice meal, but ironically she tore that to shreds from her own inquisitiveness. Just as Albrecht ate silently, Maria also ate quietly. She meekly sat in her seat as the Knight would pay for the check on her behalf. The chair would screech, as she began to leave. But, Maria would stop for a moment.

The meal was great, maybe it helped improve the Knight's mood a bit. Once he had already paid he bill Maria would have spoken again, catching his attention.

"... You are a reliable friend, Maria. My best friend even, without you i'd be much more alone." He would give the nun a weak smile before he stood up.
"And don't beat yourself over this, you have your worriers and... its just who we are, Sister. We should get back home."

"...Thank you, Brother. Maria smiled gently back at his words. She tried her best to not falter with all of this weighing on their shoulders, to try to keep up their chins for the next day. There was only trepidation to herald what was next. She would now leave with Albrecht, but not without saying this before exiting. "...Yes, let's. Let's go back home."
