[Shit. Shit. What the hell is Chloe doing here? Why? How? Is this some sort of test? Maybe it's related to the symbol they're adorned with. Maybe it's not really her?
Whatever the case, it doesn't change anything. It can't change anything. He still has a question, and pretending that hearing this particular voice bothers him in any way won't solve his problem. Steeling himself, he calms his spinning red LED to blue with an effort, and ensures that his voice is flat and rock steady when he speaks again, but seeing her striking blue eyes through that disturbing mask almost weakens his resolve. Almost. Does she remember what he nearly did to her? Is this even the same Chloe? Does she hate him as much as he hates himself?]
I was wondering if you could help me remove this mask.
[There, his voice didn't waver, and there was no emotion behind it. A simple request, that was all.]
