“P-Playmaker…”

No, this wasn’t right. Ai had caused his partner so much pain, and yet… he was offering to help. To put himself on the line again, for the sake of a couple of terabytes of code. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be, this was why the dark Ignis did what he did. He couldn’t bear to watch this cycle repeat, again and again. He couldn’t risk Yusaku dying.

“No… please don’t. This isn’t your responsibility. Just let me sneak off to a corner of the network and live a quiet life, just as you said I should. Just… just forget about me, Playmaker.”  || @cyberseignis​

The other one was right. It originally had been his idea for the Ignis to hide somewhere in the network to be able to have a quiet life. But after everything... Playmaker had found himself in a position where he couldn’t let go of the other one. Couldn’t forget about the other one. His friend. His partner. 

From the moment Ai had turned against them he hadn’t help but wonder about the reason why, buying the reasons the AI had stated not for one second. It wasn’t till their final duel that he learned about the real motivation between the others doings. About Ai’s real feelings. 

And it had caused him to start searching for him for over six months now, leaving behind everything and everyone he had been able to connect to. It was kinda hypocrite how he had talked about bonds so much and then went ahead leaving those that had become his friends. Playmaker wasn’t even sure if they were still waiting for him to come home but... without Ai home wouldn’t be the same anyways. 

“I can’t forget about you Ai.” he replied in the end. Voice quiet as he was rather sure that if he would speak up louder Ai would be able to see right through him. Be able to hear the pain about losing him. The fear of losing him again. 

“I know you’re scared because of those simulations but... we can work on them not becoming reality. They’re nothing more than data. You never once believed the simulations Dr. Kogami or Lightning had felt for so... why are you making the same mistake they did now as well?”
