Week 5, Thursday curfew

[aono]

[hhhhhHHHHHH Rin is looking very anxious and pacing around the whole area. Especially after the doors are locked and there's nowhere to go.]

Well, if he's on one of those things then at least he won't get into any trouble tonight, yeah?

[This does little to comfort him. He's still anxious. But hi Reze, how are you tonight?]

[quiz]

[ Reze is just looking through the gift shop like she hasn't looked through it ten times already.

She pulls out a sweater, canting her head slightly. ]

You talking to yourself?

[aono]

I guess so, a little.

[He seems a bit sheepish now, but he'll smile anyway.]

I've just got a lot on my mind, I guess. It's Thursday and all.

[quiz]

It'll be just fine~

You've got me to protect you! So far, no one that's been alone with me during Thursday sleeps like a baby.

[aono]

But...if they're not sleeping like a baby, doesn't that mean they're staying up worried all night?

[quiz]

That's because they're sleeping like a lover~

'Cause I just take such good care of my darlings. So I'll be sure to take care of you, too.

[aono]

[Like a lover...]

That's kinda...a little much, yeah? A lover is supposed to be extra special and someone you, well, love.

[quiz]

[ ... ]

Your first mistake was believing me.

[aono]

[He. Blinks. And then.]

Wait, so you were just teasing?

[quiz]

Just a little. I thought it'd be a good idea, since I haven't gotten to tease you much at all.

But it's true that nothing's really happened to anyone when they're paired with me. Big groups is where I start losing my luck, apparently.

[aono]

[Teasing...Rin can accept that at least.]

Well, it should be fine then, yeah. I'm always in small groups and it turns out fine.

[Let's not talk about week 3 whoops.]

And if things turn out not-fine, then I'll fight to keep you safe, okay?

[quiz]

...

[ ?????????? ]

Dumbie, you shouldn't be getting in any fights. If anything it's going to be me protecting you.

[aono]

I'm literally the son of Satan, it's fine. I can win a fight.

[quiz]

Hm...

It doesn't matter who you are, but I do appreciate the fact that you'd protect me -- still, I'm not human.

[aono]

...really? Are you a demon? Because if you are, sorry. I would've been able to tell right away if I had my demon powers.

[quiz]

Not really.

Plus, I'm just a hybrid... so you can consider me half-human -- though the people who made me would say otherwise.

[aono]

Well fuck 'em, who cares what they think? Being a half-human is fine anyway, I'm half-human too.

[quiz]

Hehe. [ She laughs, and it's genuine. ]

I'm starting to care less about it! Since coming here, I've realized that I'm less of what they made me and more of who I wanna be.

So we're kinda similar, huh?

[aono]

[That. Gets a laugh out of him. But it's a good laugh.]

Satan pissed me off and I became an exorcist so I could get the chance to kick his ass someday. So yeah, we're definitely similar.

[They'll both be who they want to be.]

[quiz]

I'm envious, though, I wish I could kick the ass of everyone who made me like this.

But they can't stop me from just running off.

[aono]

They sure can't! And you can't kick their asses yet. Who knows what the future will bring.

[quiz]

A piece of me thinks it'd be nice, but...

[ She sighs. ]

It's tiring.

[aono]

It's tiring to think of the future? Or tiring to not be strong now?

[quiz]

The future.

[ She's already strong. So strong, even, that most people don't dare to touch her. ]

... Rin, I'm a little scared, do you mind if I held your hand?

[aono]

Sure, I don't mind.

[He'll even offer his hand out to her. C'mon Reze, time for some gay hand-holding- o wait.]

The future is terrifying to think about sometimes. But there's so many good things to look forward to too.

[quiz]

[ Sometimes I wish it could be gay. Just one of the guys doing gay things —

But she holds his hand, smiling. ]

I think I’ll be fine as long as I’ve got friends around. Waking up knowing that people are looking forward to seeing me as much I’m looking forward to seeing them… that alone has helped me a lot while here.
