i still dont like this bt
ur my friend
and
tryin 2 get home on my own or with others usin our own power
no gods backing us
well
a bunch of them r gone now

ill watch ur back
i dont like the idea of
mayb having 2 fite u
if things go bad
ive had enuf of havin 2 fite my friends

We are all someone's kid. Being called a kid doesn't make one a child. I don't think we are dealing with a child at all. If we were, I imagine our situation would be much, much worse.

In order to return home and return to not being cannibalistic monsters, I think we're going to have to capture and possibly break the Fog God. Doing so on our own may be impossible, especially since our own power is ordinary human.. our powers as monsters aren't our own.

I want to go home too, Crow. I really do.

If you have to fight me, use silver. Holy water does nothing. And if I'm under the influence at the time, don't feel bad about it. Sometimes the only thing you can do for someone who's possessed is put them out of their misery even if they seem to be happy about it. I trust your judgment in that.

Well usually. I do think that one of these gods may be directly messing with you right now, but aside from that, if you can't trust the police, who can you trust?

It's not ideal. But I do think it's the only way any of us will ever be human again, since Day and Night don't seem to want to get involved.

[There's a long pause before Crow's response comes back.]

no
no u dont
dont tell me how 2 feel if i hav 2 kill u
dont tell me that
dont
i already kno wat its like fighting against some1 possessed
that doesnt make it better
it doesnt
it rly doesnt
and if i kill u and u come back
still possessed??
will i hav 2 kill u over and over again
until u dont remember who u r
wat bout ur brother huh
wat does he think of this

[Though it's kind of hard to ask him when the guy's been sleeping like a cat in a box.]

I also know what it's like. I made a living out of it. That's how I know that it's better to shoot them than let them stay that way.

Rin trusts me.

[Face in hands.]

were they ur friends

[Deep breath.]

y would

[Yeah nope.]

wat kind of teacher r u???

Sometimes. Sometimes they were instructors, sometimes they were strangers. One such possessed was my father. I was not there when he died, by the time we arrived it was too late.

I taught anti-demon pharmacology. I was an exorcist, I taught other exorcists; my specializations as an exorcist were in ranged weaponry and healing the damage demons do to humans. These specializations are called 'Doctor' and 'Dragoon'.

[His username is super, super uncreative.]

xdrxdrxdr.

[That's what slamming your hands on a keyboard looks like apparently.]

thats messed up
sorry bout ur dad
i dont know what most of wat u do means bt
just
that stuff happens often??

[Yukio still hadn't forgiven Rin exactly for what happened, even though he knew his brother wasn't precisely at fault. Their adopted father had set them both on a path.

Though the response is fairly quick, Yukio's mood's gone from determined to pensive. Things had been easier, when Shiro was alive. Better.]

It's alright. I like to think he's in Heaven now, watching over us and yelling angrily about it all..

It only seems like it happens often because we have to get involved. Like how first responders see accidents all the time but an average person only sees them very rarely.

Honestly it never gets easier to deal with. But if we don't, who would?

On the dubious bright side, it means I'm used to dealing with the sort of potential bullshit I'll have to contend with, with these so-called "Gods". Where I'm from they'd only rate as high level demons, and that I've handled before.

[With help and the backup of the True Cross Academy, but here.. here he had to do it himself. Nobody else should have to take the risk.]

ha
ha ha ha
only a high lvl demon huh
ur rly
ur rly something

[He's never felt so out of his depth before.]

im just an ordinary guy u kno
that sorta stuff
weaponry? shooting ppl?
ive nvr handled a gun in my life
kulens pop guns dont count
its not like that back home

Edited 2016-06-20 15:43 (UTC)

[wat.]

You were a cop, weren't you? What did you use to enforce the law, nice words and good cheer?

i was highway patrol
traffic
and we dont point guns at ppl 2 enforce the law!!
duels is the usual way
just like everything else

You shouldn't have to for normal people, but not everyone obeys the law!

Duels? Do you use swords or something? That seems worse than guns, more personal risk!

no
not like that
duel as in play duel monsters
a card game
even gods and time travelers played by the games rules
it mite sound strange
bt its better than solving things w/ violence

[What the hell. Card games? Yukio stares disbelievingly at his laptop for a solid ten minutes before he can bring himself to type again.]

You're kidding.

im not kiddin
its just how things r done bck home
if someones doing something wrong
u duel
win or lose
ppl respect the outcome
other than in special circumstances
ppl dont get hurt
n even then
as a duelist
u can still fight back with ur cards
w/o doing violence back

I don't know anyone over the age of 12 that would ever consider such a thing in Japan, and as far as I know those things are very, very popular, along with monster-catching games.

How the heck did your country ever get that sort of thing to actually work?

in my japan every1 is into the cards
from kids 2 old farts
idk the history of it
or how it became our way of life
its been that way long b4 i was born
bt it helps that theres a lot of tech 2 support the game
nothing cooler than watching monsters duke it out
i can show u sum time

a lot of tech develoepd 4 the game also supports our city 2
the same tech makes limitless clean energy
tech like our motorbikes tap in2 that
my bros more in2 this stuff so he could give u details if u rly wanted

[After all, Yusei's dad was the one who really developed a lot of this stuff.]

No, that's alright. I think I'd like to learn at some point but perhaps under different circumstances. The idea that any law enforcement can get by on a child's game seems for lack of a better word really stupid.

But if it works for your people, then it works. It likely results in fewer problems as well, even if I can't fathom relying on such a thing. I don't think it will work here though. I'll have to teach you how to use a pistol, challenging me to a card game if I go crazy isn't going to do much good.

[o no u didn't just call duel monsters stupid, Yukio!! But Crow metaphorically bites his tongue; he doesn't want to pick a fight with Yukio. He's been doing that enough this week.]

i kno tht
im not stupid
ive been here long enough 2 kno
that sometimes we r forced in2 violence
and that ppls response 2 problems here is to hurt each other
dueling only works if it actually means something 2 ppl
and it doesnt mean a damn thing to near everyone here
damn it
i hate this place
fine
ill learn

Find a way to force everyone to comply with the rules of card games, and here too it would likely become the norm. Someone somewhere in your history had to have done it, so there's probably a way.

Hurting each other is a part of human nature. It's not the ONLY part of human nature, or the biggest, but it's there. The little parts of our brains still living in the jungle, existing by nature's laws.

Since my presence is not exactly welcome or pleasant for you it may take a bit for me to get around that little problem. And find a gun that works with webbed fingers. I know what to do about the former but the latter will be difficult.

i think
the game existed b4 it got popular
cause old gods r bound by the rules 2
the mark on my arm isnt just 4 show
well i guess it is here
bt back home it meant something
like everythin else
itd b real gr8
if we could just challenge the fog god 2 a duel

i kno
damn it
im just
no nvm

yukio
wat r u planning

If only the rules of home applied here. You could challenge these 'gods' to duels, I could find the right Fatal Verse and kill them on the spot.

I hate this place.

I'm planning lots of things! Among them a couple ideas of how to possibly make things a little eaiser for you. Incidentally do you still find me hard to deal with if I'm a bat?

that would b nice
then we could go home

me too
i meant more specifically
how r u plannin on fixing this
problem
i dunno
guess we ll hv 2 find out

I think there's other ways. I just don't think we can use her own power against her.

This particular problem, possibly by asking Mana for help. I have a small store of coins saved up, and if I'm not a vampire anymore the problem might vanish!

Don't tell anyone though, please. I don't need a lecture on why she can't be trusted either. I know she means well. Just don't touch her pancakes.

I'd like to give the bat thing a try though if you're willing. If you can tolerate me in that shape I can stand being six inches tall for a while.

h8 2 say it bt
using the fog gods power
seems 2 b working out ok 4 the 4th god

hows mana gonna help
dw i kno shes alrite
she saved my brother
thats good enuf 4 me

yeah ill give it a go
worth a shot
