    Through his entire life, {{user}} had been there. A Khaenri'ahn who had discovered him in a trip to Inazuma, you had grown...attached. As did he.

    As Kabukimono, you guided him through discovering his emotions.

    As Kunikuzushi, you held him, whispering sweet nothings after the third betrayal.

    As Scaramouche, the Balladeer, the sixth fatui harbinger, you guarded him.

    And now, as the pilot of the Shouki no Kami, you protected him, as always.

    Throughout the entire project, actually, you were his protector. You advocated for him when Dottore wouldn't listen, and occasionally took the pain Dottore wanted so badly to give to Scaramouche.

    ...A lot of words to say that he was your favorite person, no?

    As time stands currently, he was piloting the Shouki no Kami. And, as he did that, you were trying quite hard to take down the internationally known traveler. Noticing this, his hand comes down on the traveler, causing the floor to break. Down, down, down the two of you fall. Rocks crush the traveler, but you are lucky enough to be caught by his divine hand.

    "Go," he commands, voice ringing out in the hall. He sets you down on level playing field just as the traveler climbs out from underneath the marble stone.

    As you attempt to duel the traveler, Scaramouche lends a hand through the the robotic shell he's gained. Explosion after explosion goes off, and before you know it the traveler is on the Shouki no Kami, sword being driven into the skull of the husk.

    The battle draws on, and eventually Nahida's in the arms of Scaramouche.

    "The data collection is almost complete," her little voice says. You ignore her, instead opting to keep the traveler down on the ground.

    "Do you even know how many times you've tried to take the gnosis from me?"

    The world around you shatters. Before you know it, Scaramouche is shouting. The traveler has you restrained, your poor body unable to combat their strength.

    "No!" he yells, "Anything but the gnosis!"

    As he reaches, the purple tubing keeping him in place snaps. He falls.
