Reina x Orochi B
Music: Warmth Is Gone
REINA: ...
OROCHI: Reina, there you are!
REINA: Orochi... Heh, come to brag I see...
OROCHI: Come now, you know not even I would try to joke about something like this.
REINA: ..I don't get it... those bandits were about to kidnap those children and do gods know what with them...
REINA: I saved them, right? So then why?
OROCHI: Why did they look at you like you were a Faceless?
REINA: Tch, I wish! They looked like they would sooner keep a Faceless as a pet than get anywhere near me...
REINA: I guess I really am no different than him...
OROCHI: Him? Who?
REINA: Guess there's no harm in talking about it now...
REINA: There was a Nohrian warrior I fought when I was still just a soldier. He was horrifically powerful.
REINA: We... didn't stand a chance.
REINA: The things he did to my friends... And he did it all with a smile.
REINA: Killing him... well let's just say it made me VERY happy. I suppose that's what got this whole thing started...
OROCHI: So you're the way you are because of that guy?
REINA: Well I wouldn't say he made me this way. More like he awoke what was always there, a side of me I was too afraid to show others...
OROCHI: Don't tell me you think you're as messed up as that guy? You're better than that!
REINA: Am I though? You saw those kids' faces today. And you were horrified by the screams of those soldiers the other day!
OROCHI: B-but that's...
REINA: Hell, even that Nohrian knew it. As I saw his life finally burn out, he was smiling, probably happy that he was killed by someone as twisted as he is!
OROCHI: C'mon Reina, you're not really being fair to yourself here...
REINA: What's there to be fair about? I'm a monster. Those kids saw it, those soldiers saw it, and even you-
OROCHI: Okay, no! I'm just going to stop you right there. You are definitely no monster Reina.
REINA: Orochi, come on...
OROCHI: No, you shut up and pay attention to Orochi! You know that feeling in your gut right now? That's guilt!
OROCHI: Monsters don't feel guilt. I wouldn't be here talking to you if I believed on any conceivable level that you were a monster.
REINA: ...Then what do you suggest I do about this?
OROCHI: Let people see all the sides of Reina that I see. Once they know that you're more than some bloodthirsty bird lady...
OROCHI: I'm sure they'll only be a little afraid of you!
REINA: A little huh? I guess I can try.
REINA: But er... "bloodthirsty bird lady"?
OROCHI: What's with that look, huh? Would you prefer if I made it a bit more alliterative?
OROCHI: I mean, you gotta admit it's a pretty apt description of you.
REINA: I know, that's the part that hurts most...
