[ so he had been a little on the quiet side these past few weeks, but here is Shou, looking a bit grumpy and annoyed about something. from what could be seen of his surroundings, it looked a lot less like the usual rich surroundings of videos from before, but thanks to the way there's barely any light around him, it was really hard to tell. it takes him a moment to say anything but when he does, it's pretty much to the point. ]

So. If I try to go for the throat on anyone in the future, just smack me in the nose or something. Or drive me to the nearest bloodbank.

I'm telling you that if I get a pulse where I start going for necks that it won't be something I've done on purpose. It's a warning, not an actually 'I can't control anything I do ever'.

Unless you're talking to an ex of mine.

Heh. I just figured that a slight bit of clarification was not unwarranted.

You would be right. I'm just being dramatic, as usual.

Well, if it has served you well up until now, no reason to quit, yes?

That's what I always say. Dramatic is much better than lying on the floor biting the carpet while screaming 'WRY?'.

[A slight laugh.] Yes, that does not serve much good to anyone, entertainment value aside.

So long as something is accomplished, I suppose approach doesn't matter as much.

Someone's gotta keep up morals and if it comes down to me putting on my sister's old school uniform and singing in bad Korean, I'll do it.

Kidding aside though, I might slide into monster territory if I get the wrong pulse and I wanna tell people if that happens, I'm not attacking them because I can, but because of a bad pulse.

Be careful with giving us mental images like that, lest someone tries to make you believe that'd be a good idea.

It is understood, but... is there some means of mitigating that?

I did it for my school's festival so it wouldn't be that strange.

I... really don't remember even how the fangs came about, only that this guy I knew was one and he was probably the most important person in my other's life.

I do believe photographic evidence is required of that.

Well, then... as that is rather vague, I suppose we shall just have to be on our guard.

[he laughs at that and it takes him a moment to dig out this image.] My sister even sent the recording of the song we did just in case I forgot all about it.

Yah, it is. It's kinda annoying even for me. I hate not having answers.

[Saretha's stare remains unflinching, though inwardly she's deeply amused.

Nice legs, really.]

Well, at least honesty robs her the power of blackmail.

[Saretha is always, if nothing else, pragmatic.]

Our answers have always been sparse, but... That is why I have always believed we must seek those out ourselves, no matter how dangerous that may be.

I've done worse things that she can blackmail on. It's actually pretty tame.

See, I don't mind the danger to myself. I've always been a bit reckless, but if it endanger others, I might have some hesitation in seeking out more answers.

Well, then. One will have to keep that in mind.

...it is good you have that much of a perspective, then. By acting we adopt danger onto ourselves, but collateral damage doesn't help any of us.

I'm pretty sure she's waiting for the perfect moment to spring it on me.

It doesn't but I'm thinking that it's going to be too late for that considering what's been happening.

Smart girl.

Yes, it may well be, but... It shall not be for lack of trying, otherwise.

Yah... I agree. We can't sit on our thumbs and cry that it's painful. We've gotta try something first.

It's either that or accept the inevitable outcome otherwise and... I can't say I'm satisfied to do that.

I'm not a quitter. I might be forgetful and a bit of an ass, but I don't quit. Not moving forward with this would be just giving up.

[She gives a short, satisfied laugh.] At this point, that's one of the most important ideals anyone can have, I think.

That it is.
