((here works lol))

Once inside the research lab again, Shinu looked at Faina. She seemed ready enough to encounter a GF that wasn't tamed yet.

We're going to get Diablos. It's a GF that has to be summoned from the depths of hell itself. It's a wizard in the dark magic arts. One mistake and someone could lose their life. Are you ready to help me with this?

Faina's heart pounded. Monster from hell? Was he kidding? She'd wanted to go after something reasonably tame- like Siren. For god's sake, she couldn't even summon Quenzacotl on command!

Shinu... I don't know. There's so much you need to teach me first! I'm a novice, and a bad one at that. Do you really think I'd be ready for something this... Disasterous?

You have to be there Faina. If you don't watch me, there's no way you can actually do it yourself. We will spend countless hours together perfecting your summons, but I need your help in this endeavor. My body can't hold every GF you know!

Shinu laughed a little, trying to lighten the mood, probably failing at it though.

It's not a matter of you being ready. You know they say the only way to truly learn to walk is to put one foot in front of the other. There's no better time than now.

Faina looked at her feet, wringing her hands. This just didn't feel right to her. But Shinu said it would be okay... Still.

Steeling her nerves, she looked Shinu straight in the eye and smiled softly. Okay. When are we doing this?

((As soon as we finish the rescue mission LOL))

We'll do it when the time is right. I have to make peace with my soul first. I don't just defeat these Guardian Forces... I fuse with them. Make sure you do a lot of training with your body to be in great shape. Fusing is tough business.

Faina nodded enthusiastically.

Alright.
