PINGS

[originalsinner]

ESSAY ONE OF I DON'T KNOW

Here is the bare minimum you holy/demonic/sixth sense need to know about Kira Pings.

Kira can basically ping on a NUMBER OF DIFFERENT LEVELS because Yuki Kaori just LOVES THIS IDENTITY CRISIS STUFF. I'll address each in turn!

Wacky soul stuff would ping Shunsui, and if "evil spirit" = "demonic" he might identify it as such just in terms of being similar to other "demons" he's met, but. He generally doesn't comment/question and he frankly doesn't care about angel/demon-type stuff 'cause neither have anything to do with shinigami/hollows. :D

And Horatio would sense nothing, so. \o/

- How evil are you? Is it, like, raaaaaaaadiating evil? If shielded well, Ben won't sense anything, otherwise he'll go "gawrghgahdfh dark side energy."
- Multiple spiritual presences will give Ben an annoying but unspecific ping that Kira's "accompanied" by something, but he really won't be able to figure out what. Also, if little Sakuya ever really wants to talk, Ben can hear voices/talk to his cannibal boat/whatever.
- Amulet of Kalara mini-quest says Ben will sense wickedness/evil in tacky jewelry, but it's all vague sensations.

Regarding how EVIIIIL he is. Uh. He's not anywhere NEAR as evil as Lucifer? But he's killed several thousand people (when being Wielded by Alexiel) and he doesn't feel bad about it. but he doesnt' really do evil for evil's sake, it's just a natural progression for him. DOES THAT HELP?

... well, if there's no ill-intent or anything, Ben won't feel any ill-intent. No radiation of demonic energy or anything?

[originalsinner]

He doesn't really have ill intent in a general sense. He will fuck people up for certain reasons, like MOST people, but he's not really all HAY I FEEL LIKE KILLING SHIT.

As for demonic energy? Eh, I'm going with no for the moment. It's possible he COULD tap into Lucifer's powers, but no one in AS seems to radiate the abilities of their soul unless they are like USING THEM RIGHT NOW. And Kira never bothers with that. As a spirit, he's more or less harmless in his human body.

Nanatsusaya is a different story and should basically HUM demonic badassery.

[drink_this]

Um...the two souls in one body will probably ping, as well as the spirit being an evil spirit. As for the connection between the sword/spirit/crystal, it probably depends on if it's being actively used at the time? Rest of the YnM cast, help?

Not that Watari would say anything about it, anyway.

...you tell me.

[originalsinner]

I DON'T KNOW. I HAVEN'T READ YOUR CANON IN LIKE SIX YEARS =\

UH. Adam probably won't care to bother to learn anything about Kira. Unless Kira is SUPER COOL and then maybe he'll magic him a bunny. I DUNNO.

Feel free to be pinged by Adam or whatever. I do not care~~~~ and I have the burning urge to call you dad lolololololol

[originalsinner]

Kira actually doesn't get many pings off people. Your typical angel/demon stuff, that's about it >D and about a MILLION SETSUNA PINGS but that's it. He'll probably think Adam is just a kid \o/

Okay, here goes!

Iiiiii think the people who will work out that something weird's going on with Kira are Scarlett and Yulie.

Scarlett's an angel, and really sensitive to this sort of thing. Sooooo I think she's able to sense him?

Yulie can just sense weird shit in general. Exorcist, can sense souls and spirits, marginal empath ... yeah.
