What: time for door-to-door lawyer, part deux

(Get lost, nearly starve to death in a cave for almost a week, and sleep for an entire day, and the population explodes. I really have to keep better track.)

My Innocence. . . I don't think I fully understand everything about it. But we have to understand each other, in order to really act as one. It's easier for Exorcists like me, where it's a part of my body, but it's still not quite "me". . .

I feel like we could keep from being broken like this. But it's just a feeling, and that won't really cut it.

. . . if Allen's Innocence were regalia, right now . . . it would be 51%.

. . .[blinkblink]

Huh?

Harmonic synchronization. It's . . . the amount your 'sounds' agree.

. . . it was fifty, but it went up a percent, while we were talking.

. . .You can tell that kind of thing? I remember-- Hebraska told me a number like you just did, when I first joined the Order.

It was higher. . .

I can tell. If it were mechanical, I could fix it, but Allen's innocence . . . it's not something that has washers and screws.

. . .

Aah. . . no, you're right.

It actually got so low once that I couldn't sync up at all. I don't remember what fixed it yet. But I remember what the problem was. . .

What was it?

It was totally broken down. I was completely defeated.

[Looks down at his creaky, cracked hand, turning it over in hers, thumb brushing the skin beside the cross.]

After that . . . was your connection stronger, do you think?

[his hand twitches a bit, but he doesn't pull it away]

. . . After? Yeah. . .

The way it winds together with me, it wasn't like this before. It was just attached at one point, right here. [taps below his deltoids] I think as it is now, it's done evolving. . . I survived it being "destroyed" before, but I don't know if I'd be able to just separate from it again.

Maybe that's why I can still synchronize, even though my will is nothing like I once was and it's all the way down to fifty-one like this.

Your will?

Ah, yeah. It has a lot to do with that. An exorcist's will and heart. . . the Innocence can refuse it.

Or default it.

What does 'default' mean?

Just that. The failure to fulfill the promise you made as an exorcist. Below zero synchronization, probably.

I only saw it once. . .

I hope I never see it again.

If that's the result of failure . . . would success do the opposite?

You mean normal synchronization?

[Shakes her head.]

Keeping your promise.

This little one . . . it's your heart and will, isn't it? That it responds to. If it can refuse . . . isn't 'synchronization' when it accepts?

. . .

Yeah. . .

Though there's still a lot I don't get. . . it's acted completely on its own, too.

Here? Or in your memories?

Both.

So . . . it has its own will, too.

Yeah. Though what it wants the most I think, isn't here.
