Geeze...

(shakes her head, then folds her arms)

If you expect her to fade, she won't. If you reject her, she'll keep coming back.

..Perhaps...? Do you need, mmmmmoney?

(Valerian, the weirdo chubby albino guy, looks to Homura, taking a moment to compose his thoughts.)

...Mm, a corpse was being devoured in the kitchen by this thing in the shape of a young female, clad in some sort of military uniform, with long black hair and red eyes. The corpse was... Mm... deteriorated, not very whole. Ground...

Homura: (Ma) And if I embrace it...what was the point?

(V) I see. I suppose the whole situation wasn't particularly approachable in terms of questioning?

Accepting it and letting it take over are two very different things. I can't come up with a good analogy right now, so... remember Archer's twin swords? Kanshou and Bakuya?

Homura: (Ma, nods)

(I) ...I have no assurance that relinquishing the Emerald would actually do anything to address this cannibal.

Yang Sword Kanshou, Yin Sword Bakuya. On their own, they are worthless as Noble Phantasms. Their only ability is to attract the other like a magnet, because Yin and Yang are dependent on the other's existence.

But that is where their strength lies. When Yin and Yang cooperate, they can fell even the most skilled of swordsmen. If you've ever seen Archer's Kakoyoku Sanren technique - that's the driving principle. And the reason he can defeat even a swordswoman like Arturia Pendragon.

...But I digress. You are Bakuya. She is Kanshou. You two are Yin and Yang, strongest when working together, yet you seem intent on destroying each other. You haven't accepted each other - and you both suffer for it.

(Shakes his head at Homura.)

Mm... It could have decided to eat me next, and I wished to continue working uneaten.

(Stares at the card a bit.)

...Mm, is there money on it?

Main Room

Homura: (V) ...Right. Thank you. (Not like she's exactly one to lecture about workplace obsessiveness.)

(Mu) She despises my existence. And there is one issue with your analogy.

(I) ...Let me see what Ms. Robotnik's finished product would be. I understand it's to be quite a masterpiece of engineering.

Yin and Yang are polar opposites. Everything Yin has, Yang does not, and vice versa. Of course they are uneasy towards the other.

But go on. Give me whatever pithy words you want to say to deny her existence.

(Nods to Homura.)

...Mm, then there must not be any money on either. It would work if there was, but there must not be any.

Main Room

Homura: (I) Is that so. (shifts eyesight down to where Infinite's Emerald power source is) Where should I meet her?

(Mu) I am not that foolish to try to deny her. But she can when she knows that, while I may need her, she does not need me.

Gotta go next post

"There is a clearing, in the forest. She had a tent set up there, and I believe she's working on rebuilding her resources."

-That doesn't look quite like the Emerald you have, Homura...the cut is different and whereas your Emerald was translucent, this gem is more opaque-

-The color is also more comparable to a ruby-

If she were to dispose of you now, what would be left? A madwoman chasing a ghost? She might not need you to survive, but she needs you to achieve true fulfillment - not the facsimile she reached at the end of her own journey.

You are the restraint that she lacks, and she is the willpower that you lack. You two are one and the same, your best qualities offsetting the other's worst. You just need to accept that - and that won't start until you do.

(puts a hand on her hip, giving a wry chuckle)

...Geeze. Even that farmboy I gave the Monohoshizao wasn't as stubborn as you are. But he eventually found his enlightenment, both in the physical and spiritual worlds. I heard people started calling him "Kojiro..."

Homura: (Mu) ... (listens to all of the spiel, then turns her head up towards the second floor) I'll say this. You're not the first one to suggest such a thing.

(I) Then I will meet her there.
