[Had Yukio ever referred to Shiro as dad in front of her before? She can't recall a time he had, not even when they first met. Her heart aches at the word, the way his voice cracks.]

I know he killed him. An' now I know that Shiro was supposed to be designed to be possessed by a high class demon. [Her hands clench in his shirt, as if clinging to that would be enough to keep him from Satan or the Illuminati's claws.]

Shiro was stronger than anyone. That's why I can't leave you to fight it alone.

[She must be tired herself, she thinks, to be as close to verbally acknowledging her feelings in front of him.]
