In which Ion is Colette and Martel's lesbian lovechild

[positiveion]

[Ion touches the crystal in his chest, calmly explorative. It was kind of Zelos to rescue him once again that way, and he really is glad to have met such a nice person. Though now he is left alone with Jade. This doesn't bother Ion in the least, save for the concern he feels at perhaps having done something to trouble the colonel. He hadn't considered the inconvenience to Jade when he'd volunteered to take the place of those less willing. It simply seemed more practical--his 'mana signature' as they'd called it had appeared a good match, and Ion's life was worth considerably less than the lives of the others who had gone free in exchange.]

[It just made sense.]

[But he also realizes that it is something he now must live with, and in that way it is something Jade must live with.]

I'm sorry for being impulsive, Jade.

[Even if he would do it again. It is his nature to be unable to turn a blind eye to those in need.]

Comments

[clinical]

[He takes out something he doesn't get to use all that often: a fonon blood scanner! Sadly, most of his patients don't have fonons. Weirdness.] Excuse me. [Because Jade is super polite as he takes Ion's arm and lets the scanner take a small blood sample.] If it operates in a manner similar to a capacity core, I will be able to set up a monitor for it when we have you test your artes. [It would be better if he had Guy, though. Capacity cores aren't his speciality!]
