Samuel had been eying the impending destruction in the sky when he noticed the newest member of G.E.M.I.N.I (at least that he was personally aware of) had arrived and approached him. In his current, fragile form, Samuel was able to offer the robotic boy a reassuring smile. [color=red]"I'm confident that you'll play an imperative role in the events to come, as we all will in one way or another."[/color] He offered Fable his umbrella and when the boy presumably took it, he retrieved his mask and crushed the middle of it with his hand, prompting his transformation. 

Sporting broader shoulders and a similar height to his own human form, it was clear the Silhouette that had emerged from the shadows that suddenly engulfed Samuel was different than the one from prior operations. Yet despite the shorter stature, the strain on one's mental wellbeing only seemed stronger. 

[color=red]"Thank you,"[/color] he said in a multitude of voices as he took the umbrella back right before the Knight of Tomorrow joined them on the rooftop and prompted them with a rather simple, yet difficult question. 

[color=red]"Admittedly, my experience with beings of such scale is... nonexistent, thanks to that oversized crab appearing at an inopportune time. Perhaps I could've gleamed something useful in such an encounter... but I digress,"[/color] Samuel rubbed his chin. [color=red]"I'm sure an answer will come to light when our group is made whole and we can pool our thoughts together."[/color]

Not even a minute had passed before the rest of their squad had assembled, though things had unfortunately turned sour before any of them could start an honest discussion on how to deal with their main objective. Samuel didn't attempt to stop the young boy's outburst, but that was the only lenience he could yield to Fable right now. [color=red]"Keep that fire in your chest, Agent Timekeeper, and wear the coldest expression you can. Denying him the outrage he wants will strike harder than any words."[/color] 

Of course, Silhouette was more interested in him keeping a firm grip on his emotions so that he didn't compromise the mission. But having seen Arzendale's blatant depravity, Samuel could only imagine Justin as being just as petty. [color=red][i]Not unlike a school bully given too much power, only they can change. I wouldn't expect much from a monster like him.[/i][/color] 

[color=red]"Precisely,"[/color] Silhouette loudly agreed with Ashley, striking an offensive stance and ignoring the crimson that started falling from on high. [color=red]"Keep your composure, work together, and today will end with a past failure being rectified...?"[/color]

Completing his rousing words, Silhouette struggled to keep the confusion from what he was witnessing from invading his tone.
