At that, Li's smile widened a moment before softening - his circuitry flickering in a visible blush equivalent. His free hand drifted up to touch her face, feeling her smile as his eyes slitted. He shifted to rest his forehead to hers.
"I feel you." He whispered softly - fingertip brushing at her lips before doing the same with his mouth gently. He knew that she didn't understand how she had sustained him in the past...and even he didn't know in many ways. But he knew that since her return - she had definitely done so since she had reunited with him.
He told her as much internally since his mouth was busy. I may not know with true clarity right now the answers you may seek from the past. While you were...gone...but since we have reunited you have sustained me more than I can express. The hand that was loosely resting over hers pressed to his chest stroked lightly.
Taking one's life is an act of ultimate dishonor in my eyes. But even with that belief there were a couple of events in my run time where I wish I didn't have that belief. When I wanted it to just end.
The first time he had felt such a potent feeling was at her death. There were various times during his captivity where he had also felt it. Whenever he was forcefully recompiled for another round in the Games. He just wanted it to end. He wanted it to end when Fire ended up being gone...though how that happened and what had happened after was still lost to him.
And then - when he got attacked by Abraxas, and his eyes nearly destroyed - again he had that feeling of despair and hopelessness. For how was he to function as a basic? How could he protect those he loved? He still had thoughts like that...and he knew Aadi knew.
But now....even during times when I feel like that - I would never want to leave you. That desire had nothing to do with codes of Honor. I told you before that you were my purpose. I live for you, Aadi.
