Syl cocked its head.
"I'm glad that you're back, Daemon," said Syl, its face falling, "I'm really happy to see you, and I just wish that our friendship can continue as it always has... I'm sorry if I upset you. I'm truly sorry..."
It cocked its head as Daemon asked if Kure was its boyfriend. While Daemon was teasing, Syl didn't realize it and thought that it was a serious question, especially considering how he had glared at it... as if he was displeased with it... It didn't know why, but it made Syl feel bad... what had it done wrong?
"Hmm... odd question, Daemon!" said Syl, giggling happily, "I dunno; what criteria makes a friendship become more than a friendship?"
It went to Kure and tugged on his sleeve, its smile bright and cheerful. Well, if Syl didn’t know about it, perhaps Kure would!
"Kure, Daemon's asking if you're my boyfriend. Do you think it's true?"

Kankure instantaneously blushed once the question came up, quickly frazzling him as he bit his lip and tried to come up with an answer. “U-uhm… well I-I don’t think t-that I could b-be.” he quickly stuttered, flustered at the idea as his heart started to race in his chest at the thought. Dangit, what was he supposed to say?! He had to think of something quick before he embarrassed himself. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, laughing nervously. “I-I mean… Sure I-I uhm… p-perhaps I-I’d maybe… l-like to be…” Kankure stammered, fiddling with his fingers and pressing them together like some teenage girl with a sever crush on the popular guy at school. It was fairly obvious that Kankure liked Syl. He was still blushing as well, unable to control it as he felt the heat in his face.
He looked down as he realized he was embarrassing himself, “B-but! That’s for Syl to decide.” he said, gently pulling Syl in front of him as if to shield of the embarrassment that he was causing himself. But it was hard to hide when you were covered in white and had a pale complexion, the red blushing across his face was easy to see. “A-anyways… I-I thought that S-Syl and you were catching up.” Kankure said to Daemon, trying to change the subject as quickly as possible.

Veronica covered her mouth her her palm as she began to laugh. It was just too cute.

Syl gently broke free of Kure's grasp as it then hugged him tightly. It was well aware of his feelings towards it, and while it didn't really look like it, it shared them as well.
"Kure," it whispered to him in his ear, so softly only he could hear it, "if you want to be my boyfriend, I'll be more than willing to have you as such... although I think that lover is more appropriate as its gender-neutral. I wouldn't want to call myself your 'itfriend,' hmm? It sounds wierd."
It sighed as it gently kissed him on the cheek and let him go, but still stayed close to him, hugging his arm affectionately.
"If you want our relationship to move up to the next level, then I'd be more than willing," said Syl, softly enough that only Kure could understand it. "I'm not forcing you into anything. All I want is for you... to say whether this is what you want. I know we've only been here together for a week or so... but... by now I'm certain that we've encountered each other in the past... that I've really gotten to know you back then."
It then looked at Daemon, and instead of saying anything to him, it just smiled happily as it clung to Kure. It just giggled and looked up at Kure. Its next words were out loud for everyone else to hear.
"You're cute when you blush, you know that, Kure?"

I nodded, realizing that it was I who was wrong all the time: maybe I don't belong here and maybe this is not my home anymore. Personally, I found relationships like Syl's and Kure's inexeptable yet it is only an opinon of the matter.... I am not for that type of love.
Although my appearance here is short, it is time to leave Animus and forget everything here.... I am not needed..... I do not belong. Time has brought inevitable change that I cannot counter so let it be.
"Wow Syl, I just left months ago from a friggen war and now I am back to discover that my gender-bending friend has a boyfriend...my only question is who is the female in the relationship?" Daemon said.

"What's his problem?', Veronica muttered out, asking.

Syl's eyes widened in shock.
"WHAT?! DAEMON!"
It trembled as he left, tears welling up in its eyes. What was this? What was this?! WHAT WAS THIS?! Daemon...
Syl considered him a good friend... but... what had happened to him? He was paranoid, cold, distant... He stared at Kure like an enemy, as if heavily disapproving of Syl's choice of lover. Syl knew it chose well... believed it did... Kure... he was so gentle, and he treated it preciously... he cared for it! What did Daemon ever do when it needed company most?! Take off on business like that, that's what! But he did teach it how to cook some recipes... but…
"Daemon... You're abandoning me?” it whispered. “But we’re… we were… good friends… WHY?! Is this all my fault?! What did I do wrong?!"
Syl then covered its face with its free hand, and began to sob uncontrollably. It was a shock that Syl felt oddly used to, but nonetheless hurt by. Back in the past, it had lost so many friends and companions, either due to outliving them by age, outliving them in battle, betrayal… Oh so many factors… It was only because of its other personality that Syl could continue to be so warm and friendly despite the trauma it had experienced… trauma that could leave most humans (save Asri, of course) incapacitated with madness. But now… due to its stronger emotions, the pain… it was just too much!
“We were friends!” it cried out. “Did you ever think about how I would feel if you returned here, and you treat me as coldly as this?! I’ve been wanting to spend time with you, to taste your cooking again… and you just leave me like this?!”
Syl let go of Kure’s arm, and hugged him tightly, burying its face into his chest, continuing to sob. It wasn’t sure that any of them could understand… but the pain of Daemon’s abrupt and cold departure really stung its heart.

The sight of Syl breaking into tears broke Veronica's heart. Rushing towards it with her arms open, Veronica hugged it tightly and ran her fingers over it's hair, murmuring, "It's gonna be alright, Syl. It's going to be alright.".

Kankure let Syl grip onto him, knowing it was easily hurt from the time they spent together. “It’s alright Syl. I’m sure he’s just a little confused and mad. It’s not your fault.” he said, gently rubbing it’s back. “He didn’t mean to hurt you by leaving. He just needs time alone.” he said reassuringly, trying to keep Syl calm.

Syl continued sobbing for a few minutes, but after a few minutes, gradually stopped. Its sobs became sniffles, which eventually faded into silence. Their little group hug greatly helped it... made it believe that it was needed, wanted, loved... It had always wanted a big family here, ever since it couldn't see its biological family anymore... Syl sighed as it hugged Kure tighter, a small smile coming to its face.
It could feel Veronica nearby, and her compassion... well... Syl came with it all the time, it wanted her to actually show that she loved it, and this time, that was exactly what she did. Perhaps Syl was being too forgiving to a human, but right now, it didn't care about that. Daemon was not human, yet he abandoned it anyway...
"Thank you so much, miss Veronica... and Kure," whispered Syl, "thank you so much... Words fail to express my gratitude. Thank you so much... You're the best... Just promise me..."
Syl trailed off, its voice fading as the last few tears ran down its cheeks. A few moments later, it gathered to will to speak out once again.
"Just promise me, Kure, miss Veronica... that you'll never abandon me..."

Kankure gently wiped the tears from Syl’s face. “Don’t worry. You already know my answer.” he said with a gentle smile, referring to his promise. However, even if it did know, he repeated it just to comfort it with the words. “I promise I’ll always be by your side, and even if we are apart, I’ll find you and take you away for the day.” he hugged it tenderly. “And I do mean that.”

Syl hugged Kure back, smiling gratefully.
"Thank you so much, Kure!" it said to him. "Thank you, thank you thank you! I... just... I don't want to be alone... I don't want to lose my friends, like what happened with Daemon... especially not you. I don't want this city to snatch you away."
Syl meant every word it said. It was strange really... how it could not remember what he looked like in the past, or any event which happened back then, except for his promise. It couldn't help itself... was it falling in love all over again? One one hand, Syl wasn't sure that advancing their relationship to the next step this quickly was a good idea. On other hand, it wasn't surprising. While Syl didn't remember any of them, it could fall in love with people easily, and its case with Kure was rapidly accelerated due to their shared past.
Syl loosened its grip and gently put a hand on his cheek, its expression happy and grateful.
"I'm really glad you mean it, because..."
A slight blush came upon it's face, as it looked at him straight in the eye.
"... I love you."

As strange as it seemed to her, Veronica couldn't help but see the beauty in the romance blossoming before her. Smiling at Kure, Veronica said, "You better treat our little Syl right, ok?".

Kankure blushed as Syl said it loved him, he was so focused on Syl that he didn't take notice to Veronica's words. "I love you too, Syl." he whispered and tenderly kissed it's lips, cought up in the sway of emotions. But after a moment he broke the kiss and wrapped his arms around it, hugging it close. He looked up as he remembered Veronica had said to make sure to take care of Syl. Kankure smiled warmly at her and nodded. "Of course I will."

Syl kissed Kure back, smiling at him. It hugged him back, filled with joy, happier than ever... ever since it arrived in Animus. As with Kure, it was caught up in its emotions, but it felt that... that everything was back to how it used to be... It was strange, this feeling of familiarity... It was so nice... so warm...
"Thank you so much Kure," said Syl, "I'll be glad to have you by my side, and vice versa."
It then lifted its head and looked at him in the eye, still smiling cheerfully, innocently.
"Kure..." it whispered, "so does that means that we're... really lovers, now?"
