All you can do is try to know who your friends are as you head off to the war
Characters: mock_me_vermin// Raenef and a_r0yal_flush// Shibuya Yuuri
Where: Alley where Rae initially confronted Crane
Rating: Prob at least PG.
Time: August 5th, after Raenef runs into Scarecrow.
Description: After Raenef's post-fear gas post on the network, Yuuri immediately rushes to find his friend to calm him down.
Raenef scowled down at the communicator device, the boy's words echoing through his head like a mantra or chant he couldn't quite shake. "There's nothing wrong with trying to improve yourself so long as you don't forget who you were before. That's what makes us who we are." But he didn't like who he was before. He was weak. Soft. Demon Lords....were not supposed to be like that.
Demon Lords did not have "friends". But why couldn't he shake those sentimental feelings threatening to break through? His foolish past self. It was wrong, that he had been separated, half of the true whole, for so long. That man, Scarecrow, with his fear gas, had only served to highlight the Demon Lord's insecurities, and bring them to surface. Reacting. As an actor in a play, pawns in a chess match, performing to the script admirably, no doubt. As Crane had expected. Reactions. Predicted or otherwise, that was the point of experiments. Of causing chaos as the psychologist did.
And Raenef certainly did just that. The gas bought to mind all his fears. Eclipse leaving him. Failing his Demon. Not being worthy of such devotion. Yuuri and his other new friends finding out what he was really like and abandoning him. Not being a good enough Demon Lord. He wasn't evil enough. So, in turn, he lashed out, aiming to prove it all wrong. Complete 180 of how he previously was. He didn't realize or seem to care how this might shock and confuse the others. All he knew was he had to prove his worth of Eclipse and get the ones in charge to bring his Demon back to him.
He simply sat, lost in thought as he tried to get his bearings, amongst the dropped groceries in the alley, not having moved yet and not caring if Yuuri was coming to find him or not.
