Petra
"Monsters? Who are the real monsters really? I place my vote on the humans, they are the thing you should be scared of. Monsters won't hurt you, they just want's friends, right?"
Petra was confused, Alva stood against the humans? Was she some kind of alien or demon. But how could Petra trust the one tormenting her the day before, it is because she was tormenting her the day before, and that was the reason why Petra listened, and would even obey Alva's command. Sure she wanted to get the hell out of the alyssum region of Morus, but that didn't matter to how much Petra yearned for the screaming to stop and it had stop, and Petra would have done anything to mute the screeches all together, even if it meant her life.
"M-monster's good?" Petra questioned glancing into the darkness while shaking and searching for these monsters.
"They ha-haven't come out y-yet. Do I h-have to do some-something?" Sadly, Petra was losing her rationality, she was asking her enemy advice. Her mind was twisted, distorted on who was friend or foe. If things continued the way they are now, it would be best if Petra never saw Mei again, for in fact, Petra no long clung to concern about Mei at every instance. She use to wonder in the boring hours of that blood-stain cell, Where are you Mei? Is she safe? Is she alive? But instead she converses with a berserk madwoman. Not that she has completely forgotten about Mei, she just let the poor girl slip from her mind.
Butch
Yet again, Mei continued that she was a nobody, Butch was convinced she was always clung on not being important, and she wasn't, cruel as it sounds, but it was true- Mei Archer was never remarkable. But its funny, its hard to become a server of the council, you have to have a compassionate temperament, a hard-working ethnic, and a clean record; add the competition with over a million others working at the same occupation. But once you do become a server, there is no celebration or recognition, you're just finally... there. But that job only spat a death wish on Mei.
"What about Vega though? Ever try to mix with her crowd of friends?"
Butch in other words was asking who Vega touched her life with, but of course wording it different and implying its meaning. However Vega was not around the friendliest nor cleanest band of friends. Sure Vega's mother forbid her to communicate with those types of people- the ones with skin covered in tattoos and bodies pressed with varieties of pierces, the ones ending up in jailhouses and some sentenced to execution. Vega rolled with gang members and cop killers, surprisingly enough she didn't ever end up dead.
It was burden Vega felt as she got older- to never be a good example for her younger siblings, at least for Mei. She started believing in karma, thinking it was her fault Mei ended up in prison, thus Vega thought the only way she could forgive herself, find some type of salvation was through saving the last soul she gaze back with concern. Because Vega was a very selfish girl, selfish enough to curse her mother proudly, accusing her own mother of favoritism though her mother already suffered the lost of her husband and son, and this was before Mei was sent to Morus. But when Mei was sent to incarnation, Vega abandoned her mother to loneliness and pure solitude. And she was trying rid herself of her self-center attitude, though she failed to only fall in hypocrisy through judging Petra and undermine Mei. And she wasn't sorry about any of it, even Butch would have apologize and felt conviction over those sins, but Vega, not a chance.
