[Video] It's not filtered, right? feel_nevermore January 23 2011, 23:55:21 UTC
...Where are you, Jr? Are you alright? [A little concern shows in Raven's voice.]

[Video] Nope! He's too shaken up to filter. books_n_battle January 24 2011, 06:15:50 UTC
*He's sitting outside with his back against Quetzalcoatl's side.* I'm behind my house. I...I just need to talk to Ukitake-jiisan.

[Ukitake Jyuushirou. The shinigami captain of the 13th division. She talked to him only once but he seemed fine. She nods.] He'll be there soon, right?

...Do you want to talk a bit with me until he arrives?

Yeah. We live together.

*He absently strokes Quetzalcoatl's feathers.* It's...not something you'd completely understand without meeting Albedo.

...Albedo? [She pauses. No, it's true she has never met Albedo properly. But she's been sensing his presence under the surface on many occasions, especially when she was sparring with Jr.] Well I'm willing to understand, Jr. So maybe it's time your twin and I meet. Why don't you introduce us?

I guess it's better than meeting him when he's looking for trouble... *He closes his eyes and his hair starts to turn white.*

*When all the color is gone, he opens his now purple eyes.* Rather presumptuous to believe you can truly understand us simply by speaking with me.

[Raven doesn't so much as blink as he transforms before her eyes. Two souls in a body. It was only logical that each of them would be able to display their own physical characteristics in complement to their personalities.]

I said I wanted to understand. I never pretended it would be easy. And that that won't stop me from trying either. Being able to support Jr... to support you both is worth the effort.

So you're Albedo? Nice to meet you.

1/2? reconciledtwins January 28 2011, 10:11:32 UTC
I'm not in need of support, much less from someone that knows nothing of Rubedo and myself. But my dearest other half is an entirely different story, of late. Quite annoying, really, watching him driven to depths of despair even I've never seen him to.

He doesn't intend for you to understand, you know. I'm meant to be a mere distraction until the Shinigami arrives, so he'll have to admit weakness to fewer people. But you made a mistake, Rubedo~ I can see your thoughts, and I have the leverage for control over this body. I think you need to stop hiding behind that little façade of yours and face reality.

2/2, apologies for the tl;dr, he's like that sometimes. reconciledtwins January 28 2011, 10:29:18 UTC
He's been keeping things from you. From quite a few people, actually. even when reduced to a blubbering mess, he still has his secrets, the facts he thinks have no bearing on life so long as he keeps them hidden from his so-called friends. It's a rather trite charade that I've never cared to help him maintain, given that doing so would merely facilitate his attempt to hide from what he is.

We're both monsters of a sort, Rubedo and I. Tools of war that developed wills of our own and fought against the creator that so callously refused to allow us the freedom we so richly deserved. Rubedo is perhaps the more dangerous beast, but I'll admit to having played the role far more true to the archetype. Rubedo has come to worry that he's fallen prey to the same follies of fear and hatred that he cites as the reasons for my excursion into madness, despite the obvious reality that I merely touched a power and knowledge not meant for those of flesh.

That's fine :D You're in for a looong reply from Raven, lucky you! XD feel_nevermore January 28 2011, 16:56:55 UTC
[Raven has listened very attentively to everything Albedo said. It's like the two faces of the same coin. He's everything that Jr is not and though he's not really that different from him.]

[A smirk.] Are you done yet? Jr may have a lot of secrets he keeps hidden from his friends, but you however are a lot more talkative than he is. You must be giving him terrible headaches. Which could mean you should come out more often...

[Her eyes narrow and the smirk falters.] But more seriously, whether or not Jr only sees this little meeting as a distraction, I don't really care. I wanted to meet you and that just provided me with the perfect opportunity.

[That's when she decides to put a filter on.]
[Private//unhackable]

Believe me or not, I'm kind of a monster myself. And a tool. And far from being the sanest person either. So I know I can relate to at least part of what Jr and you feel. Also I know he's been keeping things from me. Do you think I was so naive that I wouldn't notice if you didn't tell me? It's his right. He can tell me ( ... )
