[satanslash]

im fine sets

we talked after he got out

there's always gonna be a lot of problems between us that might never get solved but its better and hes not gonna try to hurt me like that again

[chichichi]

He was plucked during a battle with you from Assiah and deposited on Iris in bad condition.

Furthermore, I haven't been preparing you to deal with fraternal issues.

[ It's much bigger, more than that. ]

[satanslash]

you should have to

yukio is my twin i've been dealing with him since we were born

[chichichi]

[ Please hold. She's confused by that wording. Also, they're... twins?? ]

Should?

[satanslash]

shouldnt

typo

if yukio is anyones responsibility here its mine

[chichichi]

You're missing the point.

[ Here he is, trying to take responsibility for Yukio when his actions at the hospital were a breach and detriment and she's having to chase him down not just about his homework, but to talk at all. ]

What things should be and what they are not the same thing.

I'm here.

[satanslash]

[He considers her family, but he also considers his actual biological family to be a mess that no one else should get wrapped up in. He was grateful to his friends for being willing to help him with Yukio at all but he was reluctant from the start to let them do much more than be distractions.

He feels that even more now, after hearing Yuri.

"Be good brothers to each other..."

They weren't. They hadn't been. And Rin feels responsible for that a hundred times over now. He knows he fucked up at the hospital but it's not as if he's had a lot of time to deal with controlling that awful beast inside him.

He doesn't want to be chased down.

He didn't want to be chased down back then.

He just wants to figure out how to get Yukio settled without setting off another painful argument.]

what homework am i missing then

[chichichi]

[ Text isn't good for everything. There are cues she's missing due to a lack of visual and aural accessibility and while Rin is a simple boy, Setsura is the sort of person who prefers to pin it down. It isn't like he hasn't told her, though. His language, what he's thinking -- there's a dimension of distance here and Rin's heels are probably dug in about this.

That won't stop her from moving, but it's something she keeps in mind. For now -- ]

Can you sense him?

[satanslash]

[There are just some things that he's going to be stubborn about.

Yukio is one of those things.

All of her pushing and lectures weren't going to change everything.]

a little

i think that's something leftover from satan

i usually cant sense him at all

[chichichi]

You can't sense your brother normally?

[satanslash]

nope

i mean hes a trained exorcist and the whole thing about possession is demons finding weaknesses in humans so hes probably got himself pretty closed off to begin with

but even after my power came out i didnt really feel other people?
just
what -isnt- human around me

1/2

[chichichi]

2/2

[chichichi]

[ She's literally working through the theory she knows, what she's observed and experienced back home, even here -- ]

What's so special about demons?

[ It's one of many questions running through her head. When humans Awaken in her world, they Awaken to the whole of it and it's a far from easy transition for the majority, coming into such a powerful, encompassing awareness. As a hanyoukai, she herself has always passively sensed not only that which would be considered preternatural, but humans as well -- the whole of the world, the many pieces of it. A fleshy vessel doesn't generally stop her and if she should concentrate, focus -- well, there's a good bit to it.

The concept of sensing nothing isn't unfamiliar, merely foreign to her own experiences. That's the majority of humanity in the age she was born, but this sort of... pickiness... is odd.

What's she missing? She cants her head, quiet, focused. She's missing something even as she gets distracted thinking back to Rin's flame and Leaf's familiars, the demons from Gehenna she has met.

What is it? ]

[satanslash]

you keep asking me things like ive got the answers to them

im not normal sets

even by half breed terms

thats all i got

[chichichi]

Are you really OK with that?

[satanslash]

do i have a fucking choice?

[chichichi]

There is always a choice.

[satanslash]

the only one who can give me answers would rather torment humans and watch the world burn bc they're the reason he even has an ego to begin with and he wasnt satisfied with the children the woman he supposedly loved gave him

everyone else is dead, or doesn't know any more than i do

i HATED going back

i hated watching mom and dad build their lives together just for satan to come along and fuck it up because he was an overpowered child with a god complex

i never wanted to see it in the first place but for yukio's sake i had to

am i okay with it?
no

but im not gonna put myself through more hell for answers that wont change a goddamn thing
