Nyl Phairen The Phoenix moved away from the door, putting a hand on Seph's shoulder. She was far more transparent than Nyl had ever been, but she was solid. "Perhaps next time you should ask before you do something so...drastic. ...And I do not refer to losing your temper. She would have understood why you were angry."He looked up and nodded. "Well.. hopefully she'll be back soon.. I suppose I have a lot to apologize for, ne?" He smiled softly, then looked at her hand. "I can..feel your touch!" He was surprised, it was something completely unexpected.

"Of course you can. I am not a ghost. In fact, I used to exist as a spirit entirely, so I am quite solid. ...I do not think Nyl will hear an apology. She is...afraid."

"She fears things have gone out of control. Powerful enemies come with guns and can defeat her before she has time to defend herself, or one of us has time to help her. She was unable to stop the shot that killed her, unable to save Reeve or call to Nekojiri in time."
The Phoenix sighed.
"And then she lived. That was twice, where we lived when we should have died. So she is afraid that Death will come to claim us before our time. You know we have seen how this body dies, and it is not because of some stray bullet. ...And when she looked at herself, and labeled you responsible for bringing back the memories that send her to the dark places in her mind, she became afraid of you."

You know we have seen how this body dies, and it is not because of some stray bullet. ...And when she looked at herself, and labeled you responsible for bringing back the memories that send her to the dark places in her mind, she became afraid of you." He took a deep breath and nodded slowly. "I see.." He sighed and sat down. "Bullets aren't exactly the easiest things to dodge, especially when they're moving at you at full speed. If I had been in her position, I would have died. I know you of all people don't fear death, Phoenix. Instead of seeing it as a liability, view your survive as a gift. Instead of cheating death, you were dealt a lucky hand and you survived. If you 'cheat death' then whatever death may come will always be before your time.." He sighed softly. "I don't know how to change her views on me.. If she doesn't want to see me, she simply doesn't have to show. I can't force my presence upon her to apologize or to explain my irrational behavior." He looked up at her. "Y'know.. it's funny, but before that night, I had no idea that it scared her that badly.."

"Because she avoids it. Neither she nor I has any wish to walk that road again, and I have been forced to several times. It is a...favorite torture of my enemies. Ask Nyl, sometime when she sees she can trust you again, about the events that led to her wanting to be a ninja. ...No, I don't fear Death. Except for that one. Permanent death--as a bullet through the heart would be, for me, because I would not resurrect as someone else--terrifies me. I never thought I would have to face it, especially not here."
The Phoenix smiled, fading into nothing again but continuing to speak.
"Have you tried calling her to come?"

It seemed as if no one was coming in tonight. He, with a sigh, got up and walked into the kitchen. There he walked to a fridge and retrieved a cold bottle of water. With this in his hand he went to a table and sat quietly. Every now and then he would take a drink from his water.
