Time: 20th of Feb, before the tsunami
Description: Shibusen agents head out to stop an all-out Kishin Egg attack on the citizens of Norway.

[The country had been bombarded with an influx of Kishin Eggs over the last few weeks, but Shibusen agents have been deployed to help defend Norway! These aren’t your regular Kishin Eggs though. These eggs have been feeding on the helpless human souls throughout the country, and have grown in strength and power! Be careful when going up against these foes or they might just get the better of you!

Those heading through to Norway will find there's a chill on the air. The air is so cold that it felt as though it would cut right through to your bones! So wrap yourselves up warmly.]

The emotional pain was sharp and jarring, and she wrinkled her nose in response to it even if she was aware it wasn't her own pain. She shifted her weight as if to compensate for an injury, and she glanced down at the blade resting at her side. "Yet it pains you all the same."

She moved to continue through the battlefield, aware that the current subject was a painful one for her Weapon. He would no doubt continue to be distraught throughout it, but she was fine with that. He needed his time to cope. "Even in the greatest despair, there is always a reason to smile."

He didn't want Teresa to feel burdened by his emotions, but Yuuri had never been good at hiding them. That lack of talent was made even worse by the fact that they were resonating, and there was no chance that he could hide it even if he had tried.

"I miss him," Yuuri admitted even if that had been obvious. Teresa continued to move through the battlefield unhindered after that first little emotional outburst, and he was glad that she hadn't been too distracted by it. He listened to the words that she spoke and peered up at her with his hollowed eyes. "Why do you always smile, Teresa?"

She didn't mind his show of emotion. In a lot of ways, it was fascinating to be close to someone who wore their emotions so openly. She was almost envious of him, but she still preferred to keep to herself in such regards. She found no fault with his emotional state.

"We all miss those we were once close to. I suppose it's natural," she replied simply as she stepped over logs and red glimmering souls. She paused at his sudden question and lifted the blade up in front of her so that she could peer into the ghost face on the hilt. "Because it's the easiest way to hide," she said honestly.

Yuuri definitely didn't deny that, and he would have been worried if someone didn't find it natural to miss those closest to us. He found some relief in that and knowing that she felt the same way, even if he didn't want her missing anyone. Which was nothing but a fantasy on his end given her loss of Clare. Yuuri wisely didn't bring that up even if the emotional connection between them softened on his end.

The world around him spun until he was face-to-face (so to speak) with Teresa. Her answer had his expression fading, and he looked at her sadly. "You shouldn't have to hide the way that you feel," Yuuri softly murmured to her before offering Teresa a gentle smile. "And never to me."
