G wasnt sure what even happened. Last thing he remembered was Elena grabbing him and everything getting dark. The two made their escape, and G mostly followed Elena, he had no idea where they were going and he wasnt keen on asking either. He didnt wanna talk now. And besides, he didnt feel he could.
Eventually, they arrived at some place. Someones home, her home? Again, he didnt question it. Well where ever they were, he saw Hana. He blinked surprised, but due to him kind of using his energy, he didnt really have any strength to talk. But even if he could, he was speechless. He just hugged Hana and held her in his arms for a good bit. After the hug, he looked at Elena. His expression could say one thing. It was uncertainty. He wasnt certain where were they, how were they. What is the nature of their relationship. He knew Elena doesnt like him. She most likely just saved him for Hana's sake. Right he has to talk to her about that one time. If only he gets her alone. Then he could talk it out. Maybe she wont hate him, maybe she will. But at least he can explain his actions.
But now wasnt that time, now was time to just take Hana and go home, right? He looked at Hana, the same look of uncertainty on his face. He wasnt sure what was he supposed to do. He let go of Hana.
G needed to say something. Anything. But there was only one thing he could say. The first thing that came to him. The most honest thing he could say. One that could be aimed at both her an Elena. He soon tried to gather the strength and say it. No matter what fatigue he had. He said it quietly
"I'm sorry"

She had not dared to touch anything. She had basically crashed on the couch in sobs when Elena had managed to get her here and she held her son in her hands. She had finally managed to get the couch pillows to form a sort of crib and not let him roll off while she sat before the couch. For her son, she would do everything. And when she finally had managed to calm down, when she stopped crying because tears were just not possible anymore, Kai had stopped too. And eventually, he had fallen asleep and she sat in front of the couch. Her head against her knees, hands in her hair. She was afraid, deadly afraid but she could not contact anyone, she could not do anything. She had sat there for quite a while and then again it was like another moment that she learned that her legs were frozen together and she heard a noise. She looked up but had no idea what it was, it was so strange. She had already discovered Mikhail had pets, she had not been near them after sneaking a peek. But she heard other noises, a key? She had difficulty with untangling herself from her position and slowly got up. Hanako almost lost her balance, Elena had said Mikhail wouldn't come home, she wasn't even sure if she had asked why not.
She wasn't sure what was going on but managed to go back to the hallway and for the first time switched on the light. There was nothing that she noticed or dared to grab to attack this person with that might come inside. What time was it? She should go back to the living room cuz her baby boy. He wouldn't fall off, she had made a whole construction but still, she should be with him. But when the door opened, she just noticed them.. She had not really anticipated, had not really thought yet about how long it would take for her to see Gil, how long it would be and when and how he would look and she took some quick steps before thinking and burying her face in his chest and she sobbed again. When she was finally done being stressed, scared, relieved, anything really she looked up and checked his bruises for as far as she could by standing in his arms and just turned to Elena with a teary face, "Thank you." were at the moment the only words she managed to say. She would bring him to the living room, again afraid herself so she would if everyone allowed it set G on the ground, she would be able to check him better. She did not listen to his apology, she would simply now kiss him on his cheek. She was so happy that she had him here, alive. She would have to find any first aid stuff that Mikhail must have, at least... she hoped he did. He was a pro, right? So why would he not?

- are you holding your breath again? -
The whole ordeal was miserable, but none more so than the drive back in total, utter silence. Elena dropped the weird techie Fix off back at his little shop and then made a straight shot to Mikhail's apartment. They just sat in silence in the car. Shouldn't he say something? Literally anything? He was half-awake in all fairness and still beat to shit, but nothing? A thanks, an apology, a "you Mexican bitch I can walk"? Well, the latter wouldn't be an improvement on the silence, but the other two might have been something. At the same time she was glad he said nothing, because it meant she didn't have to say anything either. She didn't want to fill the car up with steam today.
Mikhail's apartment was nice. Really nice. It was the third-to-top apartment in the obviously more-luxury-than-normal complex, and the view of Tokyo surrounding it was really something. She pulled into the parking garage beneath it--grateful that her boyfriend didn't have a car to take the spot allocated to him--before quietly stepping out and ushering G along behind her. "Keep your head down and hood up." She spoke quietly and harshly. "If security spots you they might call the cops."
Into the elevator and up they went, and then into the hallway that lead only into the hallway that lead into Mikhail's apartment. There were no others on the same floor. Ritzy. She unlocked the door, pushed it open, and hit the light once G was in first.
Just like that, Hanako was in the door to the entry way, and Elena's stone-cold face faltered. Fuck. She looked so happy to see him. I mean, yes, she was sobbing and a mess but that was good in this context...if it was for anybody but this guy.
Elena's disdain for G was not unknown by him anymore. She'd tried playing nice but after he'd let his summon go nuts on the Shinigawa pier, she'd stopped that right quick. Nobody who let themselves go crazy like that because of a few snide comments should be anybody's husband, let alone a father of, what, three kids? That was messed up. This was all sorts of messed up. But Hanako apparently didn't get it. And Elena was tired of being a sounding board to her relationship ups and downs while hating the guy she was choosing to spend her life with.
But on some level she got it. The part of her with a Quirk that did nothing but harm, that took more than appropriate joy in burning bad guys, that was shut off and angry and wanting attention but fearing disdain...she wanted his approval, because he was the leader of the gang, and respected his ideals as a vigilante, and his attitude toward those "beneath" him. And if somebody like him could get some manner of their shit together and wind up with a wife and kids, maybe she wasn't screwed, too.
If she could only separate G the shitty boyfriend and G the vigilante.
But she couldn't. It didn't work that way. She'd said on that pier that she was done. Gone. No more Storm Knights, no more G, no more Hanako. A clean cut. But then the bastard got up and kidnapped and...
Maldito héroe complejo.
Elena coughed and thumbed in the direction of the door--she didn't respond to his apology or Hanako's thanks. "There's a first aid kit in the kitchen if you want to look at the worst of it. I don't know what treats electrocution but that's probably something to check for." She walked around them into the living room. It was, like the rest of the apartment, bigger than a place in Tokyo had any right to be. It wasn't a mansion but it was ridiculous all the same. Admittedly, the huge couch and huge bed and small-pool-sized bath were because Mikhail was ten feet long and couldn't really relax or sleep or clean himself with "normal" furniture or appliances, so it was more than just luxury. It was necessity. He could probably do without the curtains that were controlled by his phone. Damn rich nonsense, that was.
She smiled at the little sleeping Kai, rested on the absolutely ridiculously sized couch, before making her way to the kitchen and opening cupboards, looking for the first-aid kit. The kitchen was open to the living room, so it wasn't like she was out of the room from them, but the distance was needed right now. She didn't like this at all.
The faster Hanako took take of his injuries, the faster they would go. |

He hugged Hana and Hana hugged him. She buried her face in his chest. And he felt he could just melt there in her arms. He did not want this moment to end. It was a second. But it was a second of pure bliss. That bliss was interrupted by the words 'Thank you'. Oh right, they werent quite home. This wasnt their home. And an... unfriendly face was there. G didnt get to rationalize his thoughts, feelings and opinions yet as he was soon taken to a living room. Hana set him on the ground, he didnt move a muscle. But that kiss on the cheek was lovely, it made him crack a smile. It was very faint, but it was there. The smile though quickly faded in the oblivion at the noise of a cough. She told Hana where the first aid was. But as Hana went to get the first aid, G wondered... was this Elena's home. It was interesting to say the least, but he also knew he wasnt the one to judge. As he looked at his surroundings and this living room, he saw Kai on the... interesting sized couch. He walked over to him and crouched down. He didnt wanna touch or disturb the sleeping Kai. G heard footsteps, probably Elena leaving or Hana arriving. He wasnt sure as he kind of tuned out the girls just to see Kai and all his adorableness.
Sadly, he cant just admire Kai, he had to get the elephant out of the room or whatever. He had to speak to Elena. He looked up to where she was and opened his mouth to speak. He could do this. She needs to hear his perspective of things. He doubted the story would change her opinion, but at least then she can understand his actions and then make proper judgements

Where to begin? What to do? What to say? She just wanted to cry and be held and hold him. She got out of that track of thought by Elena, though her friend did not respond to the thank you, she wasn't sure what to do or say but first aid was indeed important. She took G with her, but like her own nerves, she set him on the ground. She kissed him on his cheek before hurrying off to see where Elena had found the first aid kit.
Hanako skittered off to go and see where Elena was looking and waiting for her if she would find the first aid kit. She did not dare to look through the cupboards herself and she was too nervous to say anything, considering her friend had no response for the thank you that was given to her. She had panicked in the chat and when she had seen the familiar names of Hestia and Fix. Oh. "Where is Fix?" She asked softly, trying to show that she could be a decent human being after all and not only selfish. She hoped he was fine and just dropped off at his shop, she always had the feeling he was younger than he pretended to be but she had no idea why... without Scandal, she had also no interest in finding out why.
She got the first aid kit and turned around to see G but he wasn't where she had put him on the ground but in a quick eye scan, she saw he moved closer to Kai and she smiled. She noticed his look to them, or well probably Elena but in their direction and he tried to talk. Should she... should she leave them alone? What kind of disaster would come from that? She would, by all means, yell at the both of them to stop behaving like babies or her personal guard against each other. She loved the both of them alright, but she also needed the both of them.
She moved slowly with the kit in hand and sat on the floor a little away from him, she would scoot over when all was said and done or something alike. She looked in the kit, before getting up and taking the kitchen towel that she had seen, she checked, it looked really clean and she put a little bit of water on it, time to clean up the wounds first, before applying the burn ointment to the burns that the electricity had made and to see what more she could do for his injuries.
She was far from the perfect wife, wasn't she?

- are you holding your breath again? -
"I dropped him back off at his shop. Neither of us got hurt, but he used his Quirk a bit hard, getting G out--" Elena stopped, realizing she'd just answered automatically, not taking into account that she was trying to put more distance between herself and Hanako. But it was hard. She also didn't know how much she wanted to tell her about the conditions G had been in when they got there. It...hadn't been pretty. And wasn't her place to say anything at all. And the things she'd overheard had been..."MIERDA RESIDUOS DE RESPIRACIÓN!! KICK HIS ASS JEFE!!"
Todavía grité eso. Qué demonios estaba pensando? Él no es...no importa.Elena sighed and pulled out a moderately sized plastic box with little flips to keep it closed shut, and handed it to Hanako without looking at her face. "Fix will be fine. He's a smart kid. Dumb as fuck, but smart, too. Speaking of fixing, go fix yours up." She looked past Hanako into the living room, and found G standing there, staring at them with his mouth open. Elena's hand twitched on the first aid kit and pulled back the moment Hanako had it in her own. Her lips pulled into a scowl. "Finally going to say something? After I saved your estúpido cuello? I thought I was getting dead silence for the rest of the night and forever after. Vete a la mierda." Elena clicked her way to the cupboard again and pushed aside some smaller bottles for a larger porcelain one. She wanted to drink hard alcohol, but Mikhail insisted on keeping the house dry. She understood, to some extent. At least there was sake for her cooking. Tonight it was for drinking. Fuck it. She procured a small glass--not a sake glass, since they didn't have any, but she didn't give a shit--from the drying rack and started filling it up. "Dios esto apesta..." |

As Hana wandered off to get first aid, G was with Kai. He was so happy to see his son. Yet he didnt dare to touch Kai. It was a painful thing. He wanted to hold Kai and hug him. But he felt like he was too weak to hold him. And also, Kai was sleeping. It would be selfish to wake him up. Soon he heard the girls. G tried to speak up. Meanwhile Hana sat on the floor and looked at the kit, probably preparing to patch him up
Elena scolded him how he just started to talk after saving his stupid ass. And yes, he understood that part. He's been around her so much that he picked up a few words. Some, not all though "I know you hate me after Shinigawa... and after this fight... and after Kai" he glanced at Kai for a moment befrore turning back to her "But we need to talk... and settle all of that. Hana told you her point of view. I think its fair I told you mine.... Im not saying either is right or wrong and Im not saying this will fix everything. But... I want you to just understand why I am the way I am" he told Elena.
Elena hates him, thats obvious enough. But he just wants to explain things. He's not mad at Hana or anything. She had to vent to a lady friend. But now that lady friend is working for Storm Knights with him. Thinking he's some predator and a killer. And... he wants to try and fix things. Its obvious Hana cant patch it up. G is a big boy and he has to stand up for himself and not hide behind Hana who tries to justify his actions and stuff. He can do this. Hana can finally rest and the two can be friends. Her and Elena that is. He doubts there is anything left to salvage with himself and Elena

She did notice that Elena tried to keep a distance, but she did not want to lose her one and only friend. She knew she shouldn't say that out loud to Elena because she did not want to make the situation worse by guilt-tripping. At moments like this, she would miss Delta a lot. Elena gave her good advice though and was always there for her, she did not want to lose her friend but she knew she ruined it. She nodded when at least Fix was save and she nodded again when Elena told her to go fix G. She moved back to the couch, tried to just look at what she was doing as she sat on the ground and prepared what she could, it was going to be difficult, she went to fetch a glass of water and tried to clean up G while he started talking.
She felt like she had to leave. Hanako seriously felt that she was in the wrong place right now, after all, everything here was her fault. If she had not told Elena, Elena and G would not have that fight. If she had not gone into Shinagawa's terminal on her own, they would not both have tried to save her, he would not have flipped, he would not have been kidnapped so easily and she wouldn't be Hanako's only option to contact and try to save her husband. Yes... she was a disaster. She did not want to hear his point of view again, she wanted to forget it all happened but people around her did not let it go, for whose best was that? She wasn't a child, she was turning twenty-seven in five months, could someone please let her direct her own life? She bit her lip, dipped a cotton ball in the anti-bacterial stuff and started to pretend that all she knew and all she heard was her dipping it, patting skin, whose skin; no idea? Nothing was around her. She did not want to hear it. She did not want to rip open that wound and cry again.

- are you holding your breath again? -
Elena took a sip of the cooking sake and immediately regretted it, even though she was still sour-faced enough that it didn't change her expression. Ugh. It tasted like salt and vinegar, not like alcohol. Tempting as it was to get plastered tonight it didn't look like fate was going to let her. G's chattering in the back of her mind would have to be acknowledged. Or stopped. But lighting up in Mikhail's home would be...bad.
And did she have the heart to throw them onto the street, while Kai was sleeping and he was injured? She wanted him out of her sight, and Hanako far away as possible. The more this conversation went on the stronger those feelings became. So why not let it go long enough for her to lose her cool, and feel justified in throwing them out rather than guilty? That sounded like a plan. Not a good one, at all, but a plan.
"I want to clarify," she spoke sharply, cutting into whatever spiel G was launching into, "That I'm not hating you over Kai. He has nothing to do with this. She chose to have him, with or without you attached to it. It was everything that you pulled to get him and that puto desastre at the docks that's got me wanting you out of my life. Got it?" Elena turned her head, but not her body, to look at them. Her eye was glowing enough to dye her white bangs blue, lips still a visible, venomous sneer. "I hate that you tricked somebody you supposedly loved to get what you want. I don't care about the reason why you did it. There's no reason or excuse I'd accept, let alone forgive. I hate your true colors--trying to murder people, even criminals, is...hah, I don't even have words for it. Evil? Monstrous? Final line is that I don't work with killers."
"So if you're going to lose it like that and kill folks, we're done. End of story." |

Elena was really pissing off G and making him angry with all the wrong facts. But he remained calm as much as he could. First, he turned to Hana and told her "Dear, can you take Kai to the next room or two please" he asked her gently and assured her all will be fine, with a kiss on the cheek.
If Hana, hopefully left. G would turn to Elena with a deathglare
"Chill out Torch chick. I tricked no one. You obviously dunno the full story and only heard her version when she was under distress. You dont even know my story and what I went through to get to where I am? Trickery? If there was anyone that was screwed over. Thats me. Not by Hana, but by many many maaaaany people before her. So forgive me if Im crass or whatever. And btw, true colours? Bitch. That just shows how much you dont know me. I'm not the crazed killer you think I am." he first had to get that out of his system and crossed his arms
She might have been firey and glowing blue in the eyes and hair. But he returned with an equal glare that would match her venomous sneer. Finally using his age to his 'advantage', he finally talked down to someone and Elena was gonna be the first one
"Listen here you lil teenager. You think you're so hot and so smart, but you know jack fucking shit. You dont get to talk to me like you're a big boy or girl. Because you havent been in my skin and my shoes. You didnt get to be kicked by the hardships of life like I did and you werent brought to the level of despair. Life is so terrifying and the only way to survive is to be as scary as it is. So if theres anyone who's gonna do the talking. Thats gonna be me. I'm gonna be the fucking adult that I am and Im gonna make things right, by letting you see the truth" he said
If he really was a monster, he would've let her have her thoughts. He would've just told her 'fuck you' and let her leave Storm Knights. But he wasnt a monster nor a child. And in his own way, he wanted to make things right. He wanted to tell his part and let Elena have the full picture. So that she can come to a true conclusion. Tolerate him or hate him and go. Because now she has a skewed image and personal bias behind her and none of the fact. And if she doesnt wanna listen, then he can simply tell her. She is not afraid of him, but she is afraid of the truth. She is afraid of being wrong and condemning an innocent.... well... a mild innocent. G knows he aint flawless. But he is slightly more mature then her and he was gonna use that to his fullest. After all.... thats what he had right? Age and experience

- are you holding your breath again? -
There is, unfortunately, a worse thing than Elena being mad enough to go off on you.
It's fighting back.
Her back stiffened, slowly, pushing her up to her full height. If she still in her heels she'd be the same height as him, counting her hair. Did he not fucking hear her? She said there wasn't an excuse or reason he could spit out that would convince her that he hadn't done his lover--his wife--wrong. Him digging himself a hole with more and more words only served to make the rift between them deeper. "This ain't about you. I don't care how many people you got screwed by before, she's your goddamn wife. I'm sorry you life shit in your meal, but you--you just said it yourself! She never did it to you! And you did! You don't do that to people who care about you! You don't fucking lie to them! Tell me straight-faced that you didn't take advantage of her 'forgetfulness', huh?! You didn't need to do it out of hate, but you still fucking DID!!"
Maybe she was more naive than she let on. And maybe there was a little (a lot) of her projecting into that comeback. But she meant it. She hated lie between partners.
Like she did. Constantly. To hers.
"And you fucking tell me that if she hadn't been there to stop you, you wouldn't have let your isopod-whatsit kill even one of those thugs. C'mon, jeffe, prove me wrong!"
And then he called her a teenager. Elena's eyes went wide, the blue blaze in her left one going bright enough to color that whole side of her face. Steam slipped out with every word she spoke, like a dragon of yore, from the corners of her mouth. "What the FUCK do you know about me?! You think this is my life?!" She gestured to the nice, comfortable apartment around them. "You think I don't know how horrible it is out there?! I was fucking SELLING MYSELF to get by, for four fucking years, just to pay rent! My REAL home is a shitty little hovel on the border of Kabukicho!! Don't you fucking dare tell me I'm sheltered when I've seen the disgusting things I have..." She exhaled a wave of steam as her breathing shook, and her hand gripped too tight on the edge of the counter. Somewhere in that she'd turned to face him.
No es asunto suyo por lo que he pasado. No es asunto mío por lo que ha pasado.
Elena breathed in again, and released her hand from the counter. A black, ashen print of her hand was left there and she shook her hand out, trying to cool it. She couldn't have a meltdown here. "I could have told Hanako to go there instead, but I'd rather her be here at my boyfriend's place where nobody's gonna break through the fucking door to get her or Kai. If he found out about this--" She clenched her hands into fists. "--I'd be back in that shithole. Before you think I'm judging you for any of that shit, why don't you clear up your own assumptions about me." |

She went on and on and god he wanted to strangle her, but for everyones sake he remained calm. The only thing that wasnt calm was his angry and irritated expression, his emotions and his blood pressure that was sky high due to the blood pumping so much anger. And oh god she still went on and on.
"Wouldnt you fucking choke a bitch if they wanted to sell your loved one for sexual activities?!" he asked her angrily. He spoke through his teeth, keeping his voice quiet. But you can hear the urgency and the yell in it, even if it was hushed down.
Why was she so pissy? Is it because she's unloved. Maybe. Maybe she never had love, so thats why she cant understand his raw emotion
Then once he schooled her and called her teenager. Her eyes widened, her left eye had a blue blaze and then god she went ham on him. When he got the chance, he struck back just as hard as her
"Ok first of all Sans. Keep your voice down or you wake the baby and if you arent a bloody teenager then be calm and talk like a fucking adult. Secondly, good fucking question. What the fuck do you know about me?! All you can do is judge me when you just know the bare bones. You dont even have a story. You have a skeleton that Hanako told you. Yet you dont let me speak up and tell you the meat of the matter. Yes, I used her forgetfulness. Aint I a fucking saint?! Nobody's fucking perfect. Deal with it." he spoke to her, still in that hushed tone through his teeth, but you could feel his anger. Sure he didnt spit fire, but the venom and anger he had, he might as well spit plasma
Elena then went to tell him a bit about herself, she sold herself to get by for four years. And her real home is a shitty little hovel on the border of Kabukicho. She told him she could've let Hana go there. But she rather Hana be here then there G would have been more sympathethic if she lets HIM tell her about about himself. He just wants to express himself so she can understand why. Maybe its justification. But... he just wants her to get it why he did it. Its no excuse. But he wants her to get his point of view. And he be damned if he doesnt get a word in there. If she got to tell him, now it was his word. She can plug her fucking ears if she was not gonna listen, but at least he gets to say a few words and at least she gets to hear something
"Tch! If you know how horrible it is out there. Then why not show some fucking sympathy to me?! You have no idea what I've been through!! Being born to a bunch of Quirkless parents who see you as a fucking freak and just wanna destroy you and blame you and stomp on you and hit you whenever something is wrong in their life. You thought you had it hard?! Well at least you had a fucking roof over your fucking head. When I left my hell I called home. I had to sleep under the stars and hope I dont get fucking shanked by a hobo and yes!!!
I was a fucking Villain! I wanted to be a Pro! But life kicked me and forced me to mug people to survive. And yes I was not above fucking selling myself! Either to a woman or for some thug grunt work! I did what I had to to fucking survive!!! So fucking excuse me for yearning for a fucking family and wanted love!! Yes! I screwed up and did wrong. I did SOoOOOOooooOoo much fucking wrong! I had a fucking dark blot of a period in my life where I was the lowest of low that we put to fucking jail and beat up on the street. But you know what?! I persisted. I fucking persisted. Sometimes I didnt even want to persist. I wanted to fucking end myself so so SO many fucking times, I thought how to end it. And the only thing that kept me going was me not wanting to die by my own hand. If I was to die, it would be me fighting. So fucking sorry for turning my life around and for having Kai. I had a shit life and I am a shit man as a result. I did wrong. But just leave me fucking be woman. Jesus what will calm you down?! Wanna crucify me?!?" he asked rather frustrated
When he started he couldnt stop, he didnt even know if he spoke cohesively. His sentences had no structure. It was just.... what came to mind. Honesty. Whatever point he had, he had no idea if it came across. He knew he did wrong and that he screwed up. But... he just wants her to know why.
Does he regret it? Yes and no. Yes, because thats hindsight. Back then he didnt know if Hana would leave him like the rest, he was scared of losing her. And yet his actions did make him lose her for a while. But no. If he didnt do what he did... he wouldnt have had Kai.
He sighed as he calmed down and got like 80% off his chest. He wasnt sure if she listened or left or plugged her ears or what. He just knew he had enough
"Nobody's perfect.... I was scared she'd leave me just like everyone else before her did. But thats hindsight right. What I did was a dick move that I kept silent. I know that.... Im not perfect...." he sighed "Do what you want. If you want leave the fucking group. I dont care. We'll get out of here and let you stay at your boyfriends fancy ass candy ass home" he said and went in the direction of Hana and Kai

He asked her to leave and she looked from one at the other? How much would be restored if she wasn't there? The last time she let the two handle everything by themselves, nothing good came out of it. He had been so angry at Elena and Elena so heartbroken that Hanako did not dare to move. She wasn't sure who would be the bigger one if any of them. But it was her fault so this was a request, it was an order she had to obey and she softly and slowly picked up her son and pressed him with one hand softly against her shoulder and held him to support and steady to not notice he would be moved. What would happen? Who would tear at whose throat first? Why couldn't they forget it, as she asked? She did not want to be reminded of her mistake or better yet mistakes every time she tried to get her best friend or her husband or anything. She managed to walk, head held high, her feet not tangling, her clumsiness not shining through. She was doing fine. She had practised, she had her shoes off, she couldn't fall over that, she had done fine. She wished Miku was still here but she had dropped the girl off at UA before coming to Mikhail Orlov's place. What a strange idea.
She couldn't get far when she closed the door behind her to get back to the hallway. She leaned against the wall and slowly sank through her knees, through her feet, through everything as she sat on the ground, holding her sleeping baby in her arms. She should sit as quietly as she could, not to eavesdrop but to make sure he did not wake up. She could hear them, muffled but definitely not happy and she cried. She tried to catch her breath as she was holding it, why would she have opened her mouth, why would she say anything? It was just human right? But if she forgave Gil, then why could Elena not do so? Hanako was a freaking adult so let her? But why couldn't Gil treat Elena like an equal? A person that cared about Hanako too, they should agree, they did to come and rescue her at Shinagawa, Elena saved G and look at them now. Nothing was going to change, nothing, they would never ever. She sobbed and buried her face next to her son on her chest. She sobbed, tried to hum his sleepy song while she could find her breath, to distract herself. She swore she would never love again, that she would never tell someone her burden, she would keep it to herself, she would do so, she would keep it that way, she would be the perfect wife, perfect friend, perfect everything. This was going to be all fine and dandy when this was over. She was going home and nothing mattered anymore, nothing but Kai. That's what she decided, it was all or nothing and she had lost; so it was nothing.
But if it was nothing and she was just crying here? Than what did it matter if she did not listen to them? When you thought about it, they did not listen to her either and she looked up, in the darkness of the hall her eyes did not see anything, her son was asleep and if he would wake up, she would stay up all night shushing him, but that was worth it... that was much more worth it than shutting up and staying here in the nothing and doing nothing. She got up, pushed herself off the wall and opened the door again to the kitchen and living room space. She looked fiercely at either of them, nothing else mattered. Nothing else registered. "And now shut up!" She had said that before, nothing came from it, but if she could have been a quirker, the imposing statue that she was now showing, the atmosphere she created, might be enough. "I had enough! I had enough of the both of you, for god sake. Do you want this? Do you want to lose me? Because if you do then I will leave right now and I will not return. I want for fuck sake my best friend and my husband to go along, for both your information it is my decision what I do with my life, I am not a baby, I am not a child, I can come up for myself pretty well if you did not know. I want this child, I want that man," She started to point, "And I want that woman, alright? If you want to continue this childish behaviour, I will leave as well, because I decided to spill my thoughts in the moment of weakness, because I did not know what to do with myself but it is up to me if I forgive this man and I did, and I even married him, whether you like it or not and you better start to respect that." She said while staring at Elena but heaved up her hand because she would not tolerate that either of them spoke, "As for you." She turned her attention to G, "She cares, alright, and this is about what we did, not about Elena, not where she lives, what she did, what age she has, so don't you dare bring this up and make it about her. We make a mistake and if she doesn't agree with how you did it, how we did it, then so be it, but for heaven's sake let us just continue and make our decisions about our own, if we came for advice than it makes more sense but I met you both in the way you are and you met me in the same way. Now if you all be a father or a sugar aunt for my little one, I would appreciate that and I would appreciate the respect for each other, it's in the past and I do not ever and I repeat not ever want to think about it again, it makes my heart ache but I decided that I want to be with a man that loves me and my child deserves his father. He deserves to be spoiled after almost dying because he was born a month too early, he deserves to watch his father make all the silly things, sing all the silly songs when he is afraid of the thunderstorm because he is loved and I feel loved. But he also deserves to be spoiled by Elena as she showed before, he loves his toys, he loves seeing her and I refuse to take you both away from him and from me, is that clear?"

- are you holding your breath again? -
Elena was reaching a dangerous point. She was only sort of aware of it, mixed up with all the anger still fanning the literal fire inside of her, but she was. She crossed her arms over her chest to lock her hands from touching anything. If she did, she was certain she'd char it, whatever it was. But G just. Kept. Talking. More and more excuses. She didn't give a damn about his reasons; no matter how horrid his life had been, he had made a promise to somebody to take care of them, and manipulated her to get a child. To "better himself". Kai didn't need to exist for his father to be a better person. She was glad that he did exist, because she wouldn't wish he wasn't, but if that was how G saw his own son then he shouldn't have him in the first place.
She didn't register that he was admitting what he'd done was wrong. She was too far past the point of rational thinking to hear the genuine admission of guilt at the end of his spiel. She wanted to throw a fucking punch. But if she said literally anything--
And that was when Hanako barreled back in, over G's attempt to just leave, and her voice snapped Elena back into the room. Even if she'd said she wanted to distance herself Hanako was still her friend. So when she spoke, Elena listened, even if a part of her still didn't want to. It was a much smaller part than whatever wanted to ignore G for the rest of forever. When she was pointed directly at, Elena flinched and her arms tightened around herself, but her eyes stayed on her friend. Well--yeah--there wasn't anything she said that wasn't true? She was her own person. She was. Just because she was Quirkless or because she was (comparatively) emotionally frail didn't change that. But...but Elena still couldn't understand how she could forgive a person like G for lying to her. Wasn't that something that should have burned that love and trust up? She felt a comeback worm itself up her throat. She shouldn't forgive him.
...should she?
The comeback got stuck.
She shouldn't forgive him, because people who lie to their partners are scum.
Because they don't deserve second chances, or thirds, or fourths. Whatever. They didn't. He didn't. He didn't deserve it.
...
No lo merezco.
Elena's eyes glued themselves to the floor, the fire in her eye fading from a wild, vivid blue to a weak, pallid white. Shame burned in her chest very differently than anger did. It wasn't her business whether or not Hanako forgave G. But that wasn't the problem. Hanako could forgive him. Hell, he had admitted he had fucked up. There wasn't a bullshit excuse. There were reasons, but not attempts to hide in them. He said it himself, and she'd tried to ignore it. Why, though? Because if somebody like Hanako could forgive him and love him even if he had lied and hurt her, then...Mikhail could do the same. And the thought of that frightened her more than anything else.
He shouldn't forgive her.
Not for lying about being a vigilante. Not for lying about her job, her life, her friends, her everything. She lied so much and it hurt so much and she was ready for when it all came crumbling down. She was a hundred percent ready for when the truth came out and she lost everything. Because that was how it went. Her pride would swallow her up and she wouldn't be able to admit she'd been wrong--she'd admit she'd been a liar, but she had her "reasons" for it. Excuses. And he'd tell her to go, and that would be the end of it. Because she didn't deserve anything other than that.
Not with how she treated people who'd done the same.
But if somebody could forgive someone they loved, even if they'd hurt them, then the same could be true for Elena, too. If fucking G could admit he was wrong and be forgiven then shouldn't she be able to as well? Hell, couldn't she forgive him, too?
Her pride was so hard to swallow.
...realmente soy una adolescente.
She stayed quiet until Hanako finished, semi-aware that the rest of her words had been in her own defense, but not feeling at all deserving of that, either. Though a small, honest (and only slightly manic) giggle did escape when Hanako called her a "sugar aunt". Goddammit. She had to reign in her stupid laughing or she was going to look like an insensitive bitch. Elena brought her hands up to cover her face, white fire still wafting gently up from her shrouded eye, and trails of steam from the corner of the other. Oh. She'd actually teared up from that. It had been a long time since she felt this bad, and it not have been anger that brought her to this point.
"...fuck..."
She didn't know how to apologize. Should she apologize? Her pride told her no but it wasn't being exactly helpful right now. She still didn't know how to forgive him, either. But. That probably didn't have as much to do with G as she'd thought it did.
"Me siento como una perra masiva en este momento. Excelente." Elena grumbled into her own palms. How did people do this. Normal, less proud, less angry people. "...fine. Fine. I don't...no se como hacer esto. I'm. I'm sorry. For this. I'm sorry."
It was a start. |

G went to Hana, but it turned out that she was the one that went to him. G opened his mouth to ask her how come she is here. But even before he uttered a word, a letter... Hana started. And boy did she start. She wants her husband and her bff to get along. And its her decision what she wants. G nodded in agreement. He also raised his hands a bit just to show like he means no harm... or like that he froze.
Then Hana starting pointing... at Elena. She started to tell the fiery blue blaze off that it was HER choice whether she forgives him or not and that she better respect it. Throughout that G just smiled and nodded in agreement at every word Hana said. He even wanted to say PREACH IT!! But he didnt as he did not wanna interrupt her.
But then she turned to G and froze. Still hands up in that surrenduring. He nodded and stopped smiling a bit. But he nodded to every word Hana said. Its about what they did, not about Elena, nor where she lives, what she did, what age or anything. G nodded in agreement as she spoke and looked at her. No he wont make it about her because thats not what he was doing. For a moment he stopped nodding when he didnt agree on a part. And when she continued on a part he agreed upon, he would just keep nodding as she speaks.
Once Hana finished, both of the Vigilantes were speechless. G looked at Elena who was also speechless. Soon Elena spoke and grumbled into her palms... something
"Shit, I think she broke her. She's speaking hebrew" G thought to himself
"A-are you speaking yiddish?" G asked Elena confused when she apologized to him in half japanese and half whatever.
When Elena asked what, G just waved it off "N-nothing. I..erm.. yeah... all is... forgiven?" G said in his confused tone. He was clearly at a loss of what happened. And he was mindblown over what ever just happened happened. He doesnt want bad blood between him and Elena. So yeah, while he SHOULDNT forgive her easily. It was best that he does so.
