[It's not him, really.]

I'm doing okay. I can partially transform and I'm learning how to move a little more as a ribbon.

[crs01]

Really? I would...like to see the partial transformation if you would not mind. I was under the impression that bladed weapons could do that.

[bloodinbloom]

It looks a little weird, but sure. [She holds out a hand, letting her arm slip into its ribbon form and back]

If I can partially transform, I can help my Meister if they're in trouble. I think it only takes a touch for... well...

[crs01]

[In truth, any transformation was going to be weird to him. It was also fascinating though. At the mentioning of touch, he knew it still bothered her what she was able to do.]

That is quite an accomplishment to come that far.

[bloodinbloom]

I've been trying to do my best and practice.

[She's super determined even if she doesn't get a partner ever]

[crs01]

I too have been practicing...more with trying to resonate with different people than my own ability.

[He knew what it was basically, but was unsure how to apply it to a battle just yet.]

If you want...we can try again.

[bloodinbloom]

That's good.

[She gives him a smile, but then blinks]

Uh, we can, but are you sure it's okay?

[crs01]

I think it would be a good idea. It is always best to be prepared.

[He paused for a moment, something he did often. He knew of her apprehension.]

It is all right as long as you are okay with it.

[bloodinbloom]

[She nods. Looks like they thought alike.]

[She pauses, thinking, but then nods.]

I'm okay with it.

[crs01]

[He nodded then held out his hand to her.]

Then let's try it again.

[bloodinbloom]

[There's a nod, but a small bit of hesitation as she reaches out for him. She takes a moment, breathing in and out, and then changes into her ribbon form. She wraps around his forearm several times and around his hand, tying into a bow when she was tight enough.]

[crs01]

[After successfully resonating with Psii, he felt a little more confident about being as patient as he needed to be. The first time he and Rosalia had worked together they had done pretty well, but now they would have the chance to try it out without their lives being on the line.

Once the ribbon was wrapped around his arm, he nodded and began to concentrate. He found it was best to clear his mind of anything else, but being able to resonate.]

[bloodinbloom]

[She continued to calm herself, letting her wave reach out to her brother's. Even if he didn't remember, she still felt safe with him. There was nothing to worry about in resonation with him; at least, she couldn't give away too much until he asked.]

[crs01]

[Even though they had gotten this far, he knew it would not be enough. Just as Psii had allowed him to experience parts of his own mind, he was going ot have to see into things Rosalia allowed him to see. That much might end up triggering a memory he was not ready to see.

When would he be ready though if he continued to avoid it?]

It's okay if you want to give me a little more. I...can take it. In order to resonate, I have a feeling that I will have to be subjected to memories I do not recall.

[bloodinbloom]

[Rosalia looked up at her brother, blinking, but then nodded. If he was sure he was ready... or willing to try.]

[She opened up her soul a little more, making sure to contain bad memories and let the good ones go as she tries to resonate.]

[crs01]

[He was a bit uncertain still. Rosalia had told him enough for him to know that there were things about his past that were supposedly good and those that would be difficult to take.

As he reached out to accept what she was allowing him to see, he saw himself when he was much younger. There was something else. He hesitated.]

[bloodinbloom]

[It was one of the better memories of a lab. Young CR indeed, but there was Rosalia younger herself hidden behind a man in a white lab coat. He was trying to usher the little girl forward to say hello.]

[crs01]

[And so that younger version of himself turned to look at that girl with that usual unreadable expression. He looked up at the man then back to the girl.

He said hello to her.]

[bloodinbloom]

[She was pink, embarrassed that she was having so much difficulty. Finally, she manages to peer out from behind the man long enough to whisper a hello back before squeaking and hiding again. The man just chuckles]

[crs01]

[He tilts his head and looks back up at the man when he chuckles. The man told him he had a surprise for him before, so he was ready for anything.

Or anyone in this case.]

[bloodinbloom]

[The man nodded and told him to be a good brother to his new sister. She would eventually come out of hiding, but not yet.]

[crs01]

[CR stood there a moment before taking a step forward and stopping. He was staring at the girl before he held out his hand towards her. His expression did not change.]

[bloodinbloom]

[She peers up at him, fiddling a bit with her hands, but eventually reaches out for his hand.]

Apologies for the wait

[crs01]

[And that is really all CR needs to see for now. It is not confusion that overwhelms him, but a strange calmness.]

It's okay

[bloodinbloom]

[When he felt calm, Rosalia felt calm. It meant something was right.]

Brother?
