There is a grating of metal on metal as locks outside Hitori's cell slide, then the sturdy metal door swings outward. Standing in the hallway Hitori sees a storm in the shape of a woman with the heart shaped face and the appearance of high cheek bones that Silvia Costa had as a human. There is no semblance of hair, however, instead wisps of gray clouds roll a few inches from her crown. She still retains her one emerald green eye, though now it is a lazing beacon of lightning twisting and curling in on itself until it is a solid illuminating light. There is a mirror it now, instead of an empty socked, but this eyes is white. She still wears the dark clothes she had as a human woman, minus the form fitting body armor, including a calf length black long coat that moves as though on a breeze. In her left hand she holds Mayotta tomo, sheathed, near at the sheathed blade near to the guard.
"
Do you require rest? Praetor Null has placed you in my care, and under my command, when you are ready we will discuss what this means and you may ask any questions you may have concerning recent events."
Silvia watches the monster in front of her, listening for a response. Once Hitori expressing either his readiness to proceed, or a need for some personal time, the living storm before him responds in a voice that sounds like the wind.
"
I have been informed that you are able to alter your appearance. If you are able to do so now, please take a more mundane form."
She wait for Hitori to comply. After she has done so she raises the sheathed sword, holding it horizontal in one hand, and offers it up to Hitori.
"
The Sword of Null should not be seen without his blade. The rest of your equipment is in the armory, and what personal effects we could find have been stored in your room here. Unless the situation warrants it, you will carry no other weapons on this base other than your katana."

Concerning what form Hitori can assume, he's just eaten some new people. You may choose what he looks like. If you want to randomize it you may roll some dice for gender, hair and eye color, age, ethnicity, and so forth.
"
Were you not here the blunt force instruments Null has gathered to themselves likely would have run amuck unchecked. A little mess is acceptable as long as you clean up after yourself."
There is a note of distaste in Dr. Sokolov's voice when he talks about Null's and their followers, which roils around notes of reassurance of praise when he touches on Iona's holding a numerically superior force of uncertain danger at bay.
As he talks Dr. Sokolov's hands move through the air and his finger wiggle like some arcane spellcaster performing a prolong ritual. Machinery in the room seems to operate under unspoken command feeding materials and power into the sophisticated suit of armor while machine limbs perform labors that seem more like surgery than engineering.
While the exterior of the suit is sleek metallic armor, the interior see appears to alive, but still synthetic. Instead of servos and gears there are gray bundles of fibers that look like muscle tissue. Instead of circuitry, there is a fine crystalline lattice work that looks like a nervous system. There are veins of luminous white that pulse with power, like blood veins, and coating everything is a clear gel.
"
Now will do. I anticipate Null will arrive sometime in the near future to scold me about some perceived slight or other. I want to ensure my armor is in top form before then."
