I guess? Demons in my world, they take over people when their emotions are outta control. I've seen it happen a few times. They look for that weakness and jump right in.
I guess it works the same for him, even though 'he' and 'me' are the same person. I know he's come out three times already, and all three times were during emotional moments.
That was when my sword broke, and I think like...all my power coming out at once let him take over? When it happened I thought I was gonna die, my whole body hurt.
I don't even know what he was thinking. Tsuru is my friend, and 'he' and I are the same person. Shouldn't Tsuru be 'his' friend too?
[There's so many unanswered questions from that night, mostly because Rin can't effectively communicate with the demon that likes to laugh in the back of his mind.]
Xie Lian is teaching me how to meditate. That should help, yeah? If my emotions are in check, 'he' shouldn't come out.
You don't like him, and you'd rather shove him aside so he doesn't show up. I don't see why he'd think of your friends as his friends like that. If the body I have right now was still alive, and tried to erase me, I'd be pretty mad too.
[ She doesn't sound judgmental and doesn't care to defend Rin's demon, but. Her sense of morality and perception is way different from everyone else, so. It's easy to see that in the way she just moves on, too, a peace sign in his face. ]
I tried that meditation stuff, it was pretty hard!
[It definitely gives him food for thought. Even if their situations aren't exactly the same, she would know more about a demon's thought process than he would.]
But then why did he...
[He trails off there, and then shakes his head. No, let's not talk about that, he would die of embarrassment.]
Yeah, it is. I've never been able to sit still long. But if it'll help me keep my emotions in check, then I gotta try.
[He sighs and runs a hand through his hair.]
I...know it won't work forever. It's not my body, it's ours. But I...I gotta find a way to keep him from killing my friends, before I can share.
In case you didn't notice, there's no manga or video games here.
And I don't really know what he's like. He talks to me in my head sometimes but I think he's being an ass to me on purpose. I can't see what he does when he's in control either.

And I wasn't using my feathers for anything else! Doesn't being in pain suck? I was helping!

I mean, like, it wasn't a bad idea. You did it to stop 'him', right?

Date: 2021-10-27 04:47 am (UTC)[ She doesn't actually fully understand the logistics of the demon within Rin, though she did see it all happen. ]
I just thought it'd suck if you were really depressed or really mad the start of the new week.
[ It keeping him from being murderous was a tangential idea, still there, but not the main thing, to be honest. ]
no subject
Date: 2021-10-28 12:47 am (UTC)[Murderous might still happen but not yet.]
'He' is the demon in me. You saw him at the execution, didn't you? I know he got control for a little while.

Date: 2021-10-28 12:49 am (UTC)[ She has no idea what it's like to have to fight for rights over your own body and mind, not like that. ]
Can you really stop him with something like that?

Until he decided he was going to kill Snowball, anyway.

What's he like, anyway? Other than 'has murderhands'. Has anyone tried talking to him?
