Character History

Walpurgisnacht

On the day of Walpurgisnacht, Yuma visits Haruka in her silent room. The Culexus cries into her friends shoulder and confesses the sin she committed, desperate to find peace with herself. Haruka tells her that she did the right thing under the circumstances and assures that she will always accept her.

After the events of Walpurgisnacht, Haruka tries to invite Yuma to have tea with her, but the Culexus locks herself into her room and completely ignores everyone for a long time.

Shortly before a big mission is about to be launched, Yuma bursts into Haruka's silent room. The Culexus tears her helm off and throws herself at her friend, crying into her chest. Haruka whispers soothing words and runs her hand through the young girl's hair until she finally calms down and retrieves her helm. Handling her like a child, wiping away her tears, she wonders what happened to make her friend cry, something she never saw her do before.

The seer is aware of the upcoming mission and the danger involved, but mentions a feeling that something else caused her friend this grief. Yuma decides to confess her sins to her friend, under heavy sobs and hurried to get it out, unable to look at her afterward.

But Haruka tells her that she was right, that she needed to know and that Girl A's promise is no justification for hiding information. She tells her that Malal would want her to verify herself information instead of simply accepting what she is told when lives are at stake.

Admitting that she often forgets just how young Yuma still is, Haruka tells her to share her burdens with her and to let the feelings of guilt go. While hurting Girl A was bad, she is still alive and will recover, unlike those who are dead. Placing a kiss on her forehead, Haruka assures her friend that she will forgive her as many times as necessary even if she can't forgive herself.

Yuma is relieved of the crushing feeling of guilt and returns her friend's smile. Haruka tells her that there will be times when they have to do things that look wrong at first, but she is convinced that the intention matters more.

Admitting that she is more of a burden to the Ninth Officio than a boon, she is glad that she could help her friend. Both of them blushing, they agree to take the kiss earlier as a good luck charm and look forward to drinking tea together once the upcoming mission is over.

Before leaving, Yuma asks if Haruka is still angry at Girl A for murdering her comrades, pointing out the hard edge in her voice when mentioning the name. The seer explains that while she is still angry, she believes that she might forgive her someday. With Haruka's good wishes and prayers, Yuma leaves her alone.

After the events of Walpurgisnacht, Haruka tries to invite Yuma to have tea with her, but the Culexus locks herself into her room and completely ignores everyone for a long time.

NECO Profile

NAME: Amane Haruka
	"*Omegon*-san? What day is it? Is she coming today? Am I going to die today? But it can't be today... the tea isn't ready yet."
OFFICIO: Ninth, in Mitakihara City
RANK: Vanus, Prognosticatrix (that is so fun to write)
BIO: A seer formerly with the Third, the sole survivor of a group that got wiped out by one magical girl on one bloody night a few years ago. It’d be kind of romantic, if it weren’t so traumatic. (Traomantic?) She’s been holed up in a Silent Room ever since then, patiently awaiting her own demise.*
WEAPONRY: Mirrors, but she doesn’t really do weapons.

TRIVIA
- Apparently she scares easily and can’t stand ghost stories. That seems pretty weird for a magical girl, but maybe that’s just what seeing into the future does to you…

- On the other hand, she really really likes Western fairy tales, and black tea. Or she just hates green tea…? It’s really hard to get info on people like her, but there was definitely something about tea.

- She and Omegon have a pretty close relationship. When you’re only allowed to see like, one person, then that person becomes the world to you, right?

*that sounded pretty dramatic, right?
