[VIDEO] ☯ Curiousity.

[amidstreason]

[ The video feed turns on, and it shows a glowing teenager with a bunch of tattoos and yellow eyes. There's a weird pattern of green around the tattoos; that's what's making them glow. He's not wearing a shirt, either. He's quiet for a minute before he works up the courage to speak. Old habits die hard. ]... Seems like people are acting kind of out

Demons don't exist in my world. Neither do trolls, aliens, or what have you. In fact, anything supernatural would just get laughed at where I'm from.

[Except ghosts BUT WHO'S COUNTING THAT. >B) ]

[amidstreason]

[ Cheater. Naoki blinks. ]

Well, I'm right here. Are you going to laugh at me?

[ So boring. He can't help but snark a bit. ] Anyway, sounds like my world before it changed.

[Video]

[theothersissel]

Ah, you're a demon?

[He just smirks.] I would have, but I've seen enough weird things here to last me a lifetime, so my outlook has sort of changed since I got here.

Before it changed? What, did a meteor hit it or something?

[ He turns around slightly so you can see the long horn on his neck. And more of those tattoos. They're all over. And yeah, glowing green? And the fangs. Annnnd the yellow eyes. ]

Yeah, I am. I can use all kind of magic and stuff, too.

[ ... Ffff. He's kind of amused. ] Nah. Just your garden variety apocalypse.

[reveringly]

Huh... Can't say I know much about demons, but! [...] Yeah, I'm not human either.

[As should be apparent by her less than ordinary eyes.]

[amidstreason]

Well... I didn't either, until I became one. I'd be happy to teach you if you want? Demons aren't bad, though. Not in my world, anyway.

[ Have a smile. :D ]

So... if it's okay if I ask, what are you?

[reveringly]

Sure! It's always neat learning about other people.

[Have a smile back~]

I'm a Coralian! Kinda like that giant coral here... except kinda not too!

[amidstreason]

Oh... well, what can I tell you? I'd like to learn about Coralians, too. Maybe we could go one question at a time?

[ Eeee, he is now excited. ]

[thehawks_eye]

I'm just glad we don't seem to have any homunculi here.

[amidstreason]

[ Blinking. o: Now he's curious. ]

Homunculi...?

[thehawks_eye]

Hmmn.

Artificially created humans. Extremely bad news.

[amidstreason]

... They sound like the exact opposite of me, kind of.

[ How strange. ]

But if they're just humans, why would they be so bad?

[busagi]

Oi... You're glowing.

Video LMAO ALICE

[amidstreason]

[ He rolls his eyes. ]

Yeah, I'm aware of that. What about it?

Video IT'S A GIFT

[busagi]

...Why?

Video Naoki is so annoyed already. XD

[amidstreason]

... Uh.

[ He looks taken aback. ]

I never really thought about it, but people keep asking here... is it that weird?

/sob hiatus what is it

[protagonized]

[...]

...I guess...I'm not really human.

[...This is Enjin's fault, and he looks a little bitter about it.]

Dana-hiatus for all!

[amidstreason]

... Kyouriki-san.

[ He pauses, considering. Somehow? He knows that look--it mirrors the one he's had for a long, long time; lamenting over his lost humanity. ]

You don't have to be human to be a person. That's... all that matters. Is that you're you.

...Preeeetty much sob

[protagonized]

[There's a long pause, and then...a sigh.]

Well, that's all I've ever had, anyway, so...yeah, I guess so.

[...well, he hopes so, anyway.]

[1/2] ♥?

[amidstreason]

[ ... Naoki blinks. He can sense Alice? needs to be spoken to about this. ]

... Hey. I'm coming over.
