Akane watched. Gauged the full development of the fight- from its elevations to the need for debuffs to damage control. To pull Wolf out from the firey maws of its own destruction...once everything was set and done Akane fell back in her digital space, allowing her systems to freeze so that she didn't consume more power then needed.

No family. No friends. If she kept pushing her dad away is that how she would end up? Is that how they ended up- given that Zenkichi always had a pained expression on his face long before she was even aware that she was just a doll for the higher system.

A shaky breath left her lips, jitters in her body that her jewel lowered down to access the shadow.

Then she turned that body to Wolf.

"The shadow's...receded huh?" She couldn't help but comment out loud. "It's funny."

"I have been through dozens of these cognitive spaces and never seen something like this before."
