五十 (Video Post, Japanese)

[onikui_tengu]

[The video feed is switched on, displaying one of Haruka's hands as he pulls it away slowly from the switch. The communicator is sitting on the floor a short distance away from him.
Currently, he is sitting down with his shakujou leaning against the wall behind him. Just in case it is ever needed to help deflect Bonten's power.

Oh, and his head is tilted up, staring intently at a glass marble held between the fingers of his other hand.]

My treasure... A glass marble that I used to play with as kid.

[He turns it slowly in his fingers.]

Why would this be here?

[As the light shines through it, you can almost make out a light blush that appears on his face. He's like a little kid himself right now.]

Beautiful... Better not lose it.

[Though... there is something odd about this video. Behind his shoulders, a pair of large, black wings can be seen. They're his. He is a tengu, after all. But because off Yuuko's chip effects, they're clearly being revealed to the inhabitants of the city.]

Huh. Guess it takes all types.

I was going to ask how he feels about it, but if you own him, it doesn't really matter.

[kan_chyan]

What's that suppose to mean?

[wakadannahan.livejournal.com]

If you own him, his opinion doesn't matter, does it? He has to be obedient, doesn't he?

[kan_chyan]

That's a horrible thing to say! We might have a name contract, but that doesn't mean he has no will of his own! I'm his friend... a friend wouldn't do that. He can do what he wants.

[wakadannahan.livejournal.com]

I'm relieved to hear that.

[kan_chyan]

I'm not a monster. Youkai are my friends, I would never treat them badly. And Haruka is an important friend, even more so than anyone else.

[wakadannahan.livejournal.com]

Monsters come in all shapes and sizes. Never hurts to be sure.

Important friend, huh?

[kan_chyan]

I suppose. Though, it is rare to see someone care so much about youkai.

Yes, very important! So many decades, searching everywhere for him.

[wakadannahan.livejournal.com]

Eh. He's a person, isn't he? The youkai thing is secondary.

Searching for tengu, or this one in particular?

[kan_chyan]

I agree, but many don't.

Him.

[wakadannahan.livejournal.com]

There something different about him or something?

[kan_chyan]

Of course, he's legendary, stronger than the strong! The great Onikui Tengu. It's quite amazing, someone who could eat an oni.
