二十七 (Text/Voice Post, Japanese)

[onikui_tengu]

There are times when monsters and spirits can be worse than anything that the human race can come up with... and times when just the opposite can be true.

There is no better. But for one to pretend to be the other is just fooling yourself... Yes... I have no reason to change.

Watari, I'll help you. I think I have an idea of where you can go to look for a washing machine. ...Can you or your partner fight at all?

It bothers me... He is clearly not the same as the one we fought, but they both have the same presence.

Hm. Between being forced to tell the truth or lies, one didn't seem any more useful than the other. Not for what I needed to know... and I wonder if I really have the strength to fight it anymore.

I'm afraid that's all too true. Especially the latter part.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Hm.

[7th-warrant.livejournal.com]

Correct.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Is it?

[7th-warrant.livejournal.com]

As it can be, yes.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Maybe I shouldn't be surprised.

[7th-warrant.livejournal.com]

...but that truth doesn't stop me. Futile as it is, I know it is what I must do.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

What is it?

[kan_chyan]

Um....

Is Haruka mad at me again? I'd rather not solve it like men and have to hit you again.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

No more than usual.

[kan_chyan]

No matter how you look at that it's not a good answer.

[cultofthebody.livejournal.com]

You're wrong.

The destruction and mayhem the human race causes cannot ever compare.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

You sound certain about that.

[cultofthebody.livejournal.com]

Because I am.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Then where does that perspective come from?

[cultofthebody.livejournal.com]

A look through history.

[skybound-love.livejournal.com]

Why must there be such a distinction, anyway?

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

You don't think that the two sides create that distinction for themselves?

[skybound-love.livejournal.com]

Only on the outside.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

An optimist?

[sunningwolf.livejournal.com]

You speak with very heavy words.

Are you a mortal or a demon?

[voice // japanese]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

This time. It's something people can tend to forget in a world like this.

Why?

[voice // japanese]

[sunningwolf.livejournal.com]

How unfortunate.

I would like to say mere curiosity.

[voice // japanese]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Maybe...

I'm a tengu.
