I'm just so happy that you're here with me... I'm finally able to meet you. When I was deprived of my senses, all I could do is call out with quantum brainwaves and you were the only one who answered. Because of you, I was able to feel grateful for being alive. Now I can see you with my own eyes; I can speak with you; even touch you. I never thought this day would come... For all this, I thank God, Allelujah
~ Marie Parfacy to Allelujah Haptism on their reunion

Personality[]

Just like Allelujah, Marie has another persona named "Soma Peries" which have very different persona than her, in order to restore her five sense that she loses when she still a child and make her become perfect super-soldier for government.

As Herself (Marie Parfacy)[]

MarieParfacy

Unlike Soma, Marie was gentle-loving, optimism and enough religious

Unlike Soma Persona, Marie is gentle-loving girl, pacifist, optimist and spiritual person. Since she is design baby of HRL Super Human Institute, which mean she is artificial human, Marie believe in god which is very ironic to her. Beside Marie has no stomach to the war or battlefield, she still able to help the other Celestial Being crew in emergency situation. She is not only extremely care with Allelujah, Marie also shown concern or worried about Saji Crossroad who always worried about Louise Halevy.

Even no longer Soma dominate her body, Marie still has memory of her. She even know the event when she have battle with him at Operation Fallen Angels and know that Allelujah destroy the HRL Super human institute and kill their fellow "kin". Marie accept his regret and forgive him, in turn she also regret that she almost kill him when she still as Soma Peries and causing Allelujah suffer heavy injuries and loses Hallelujah persona, even Allelujah know its not her fault.

Marie probably not a type of Vengeful person. Proved when she see Sergei death by his own son,the grief drove Marie to hide in the depths of her psyche and making Soma persona once again dominate her body. But in near the end of Season 2, Marie regain her possession again and decide make a peace toward Andrei, believing if she keep continue her will to kill him, Sergei will never amused with this.

As Soma Peries[]

Scientist put Soma Persona who have a very perfect soldier attitude. Such as like highly intelligent, loyal, emotional, fearless in battle, and also a dreamer, but she still shown her sympathetic toward many people, not only the other soldier, but also the civilian. Making her become more human than a emotionless living weapon. Beside being very perfect Ace pilot and living weapon, Soma never have any interest to do some brutal thing like massacre or killing and only focusing her duty to defeat Gundam. This is proved when she join to assist her fellow A-Laws member to do massacre at Katharon base, she shocked to see many katharon member killed and questioned her status. After touching with Sergei kindness and caring side toward her, and he forgiving at her after know that Soma join the massacre, Soma thanks to Sergei and with heavy feeling and teary eyes, she accept her destiny as super-soldier, who only exists for fight and feel she didn't deserve any happiness.

Like Marie, she still has some soft-side and wanted to get some happiness by living as normal human. Even at the first time she has no idea about Marie and refuses being call "Marie" even finally she know about her, Soma loneliness that she express toward Sergei probably its come from Marie experience when she loses her five sense causing her unable to socialize with her environment.However, she probably only got very few Marie memories or maybe lost several Marie memory after being implanted, proved that she didn't know about Allelujah and keep calling him "Subject E-0057". Even Soma no longer to dominate her body, the two personalities coexisted and Soma was okay with Marie leaving the ESF and taking allegiance to Allelujah Haptism and Celestial Being.Before Soma temporary "leaving" Marie, Soma apologize toward her that she always shut up her because of Soma always thinking about her own happiness. She also tell to Marie, that she finally agree with Sergei offer to adopt her to be his "foster daughter". Soma also wish that Marie will never lose someone important to her life again.

Soma also quiet head-strong and vengeful person. At the season 1, she try to find a revenge toward Allelujah after she hear that he causing for killing their fellow "kin" at HRL Super human institute, even she has no intend to killing him. And at season 2, Soma persona dominate again after seeing Sergei death and wanted to find a chance to avenge his death and try to kill Andrei, Sergei son's and also his killer. However near the end of Season 2, Soma decide abandoned her will to seek a revenge and make a peace with him, though she will never forgive his ruthless action and convince him to try understand Sergei.
