Raven was meditating. Or, more accurately, she had been, until she sensed something she didn't expect... the presence of a demon. Instantly aware, she was already making her way down the stairs and outside.

There he was.

She watched him carefully, not making any threatening moves at him, waiting to see what he would do. She would not underestimate him, nor would she elicit any unnecessary fights. No, for now, she would only watch him and be ready if he threatened anyone in any way.

"'Just' is mismeaning. Fairy tale is...well...have found truth in all."

Naoki's face was downcast, his eyes shut.

"Have met both of them. So strange to know tale in behind them...see only one side, but other is so overturn."

And how would his old classmates react if they saw him now...?

Could I have been anyone other than me?

[nevarmoar]

Raven blinked in surprise. He'd met them...? They really weren't just fairy tales, then.

"...Sorry," she said, averting her eyes again.

[demonborntwice]

"Is alright."

This conversation really was going ever so well, wasn't it?

"So...ah..."

A laugh. Finding a topic shouldn't be this hard, should it?

"Not so good at small talk," he chuckled, scratching his head awkwardly.

[nevarmoar]

"...Me either," she said, guards instantly going back up.

[demonborntwice]

"...Then...I guess we end talk now."

Getting up slowly, he bowed to her. "I am happy to meet you, Yatagarasu. I hope to talk another time."

He made his way back down the street, a little happier.

So I'm not alone.

A little more perturbed.

So I'm not alone.
