UGH! This sucks... I really had plans for once and... it's been raining all day.

Since yesterday.

I know I'm no the only one to complain but... I blame the cat genes...


Maaaaaan, I wonder if other half-animal people end up with these habits. Rain... no... just getting wet in general... Chasing bugs...

I guess since I can't try to build that training dummy I wanted to...
-Sorry Cirno-
Uh... since the Brigade doesn't seem to have any... Is like... [[Grammar fail...]] Are there any other "half-animal" people here. I thought I'd heard about a werewolf once...

[having JUST LEFT the village to trek around for a week or so, Ginko isn't especially happy with the rain either. But that doesn't kill is curiosity. A lazily displeased drawl-- ]

Cat genes, eh?

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Well... I guess that's how it is. In a way I don't really want to find out...

...I hate science...

So I kind of assume that's how Zoanthropes work. We're somehow born with some animal genes or something?

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

Is it a -- natural process? with some people just being born with those genes? [a mushishi isn't quite a scientist, but beware getting the man started on natural selection]

I met a kid, here, whose soul was infused with that of a crow-- but maybe it's not quite the same thing.

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

It's supposed to be... [[yeah, not sounding too happy here...]] But, we're just born this way... and we can turn into half-animals... like... a werewolf but... different animals.

I don't think it's got anything to do with souls though... You'd think after so long being this way, we'd communicate with it or something like that...

"Supposed to"....? [a raised eyebrow. You'll have to fend him off if you don't want prying-- it's his nature]

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Some people were... experimented on...

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

-- is that what caused the changes in the first place?

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

I really don't know... but I doubt it...

Some other people though... they were forced...

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

[avoiding an outright "were you?"]

-- mm. You must have especial reason to hate it here, then.

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Hate it here? It's not home, but, I don't hate it here...

I've thought about it before... the "experiments", but... the ones there are something completely different...

[[And yeah, she was.]]

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

Really? -- are the ones in your world that much worse?

I've seen some pretty heinous things, here.

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

[[She's never been mallynapped so...]] Yeah... testing, injections... dissection...

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

No so different, then...

But you don't seem to have a special hate for humans...

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Why would I hate humans?

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

-- well, aren't the experiments conducted by humans on people that aren't quite human?

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, I guess. But, why should I hate everyone when like... it's only just that one group of jerk scientists that wanted to figure out why we are what we are.

[[And she's remembering Dr. Busuzima... bug-eyed jerk!]]

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

Hn. [a very slight smile] Yeah, you'd think that would be the reasonable way to think about things.

But I think there are a lot of people here who've had similar experiences-- and view humans a little differently, in consequence.

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Makes sense I guess... I mean, I haven't met anyone like that... And well, I haven't met anyone who thinks of me as some kind of freak either. You know, wanting to treat me like a science project instead of a person...

/hderp slow Dx

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm glad it's worked out that way for you.

Some people seem sort of-- resistant, to realizing that. [....] Hatred is a hard thing to let go of, once it's taken hold.

Re: /hderp slow Dx

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I suppose. I've only seen like, personal hatred, but, I guess I get it.

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

[faint, not entirely pleased smile] I guess you haven't come across Yuber, then.

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

I've... heard his name a whole lot.

Yeah, I keep away from fights I don't need to be a part of.

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

Smart.

That's a pretty hard thing to do in this village, all the same.

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

You mean the draft too? Yeah... There's that... but... Well, I'm sure you know what I meant.

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

[a low hum. Not just the draft, sometimes. But he doesn't remark.]

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

[[Well, she can defend herself... but she's not going to go picking fights like she NEEDS to start a fight to keep in straining. That's what trees are for.

But, since he got quiet, she's just going to stare a bit at the little camera thing and... wonder...]]

[Examining the weather outside, looking to see if it's clear enough to trudge along yet-- before remembering basic politeness]

Hey-- I don't think I got your name. [wait, wrong way round....]

[kenpo-kitty.livejournal.com]

[[Wrong way or not, she replies.]]

Huh? Oh, its Uriko.

[one-green-eye.livejournal.com]

Hm. Well, nice to meet you. My name is Ginko.

[smile] Maybe the rain'll clear up soon.
