[Javert has a point, he'll grant that - if not in words, then in the way his lips purse at the monologue. Marco may have a propensity for paranoia, but not for cynicism. It doesn't come naturally to him; it only grows and festers in his wounds. No, despite what some might expect, Marco's paranoia has a way of coexisting with naiveté.

That's why he wanted to believe Kaito could have made it to space. That's why he's still with Elias, no matter whether he wants to admit it or not. And that's why, when he begins to notice the fog seeping into the room, he wonders for a moment if he's imagining it.

But he isn't. Wide and terrified green eyes follow the fog as it coalesces around Javert, then land on the man's intense gaze. Right now, Marco couldn't forget he's speaking to a Priest of the Fog if he tried.

And part of him very much wishes he would try.]
