Last time I took a really long nap, when I woke up my clothes didn't fit anymore and all of my friends told me they had completely forgotten about me. That was weird. But not the weirdest thing that ever happened to me.

This time, I woke up and was crystal the whole time. Whatever. It's still not the weirdest thing. I've seen some way weirder stuff. And Riku did this crystal thing first.

Anyway, I'm Sora. Don't any of you forget about me!

[After a moment he adds, which a mischevious smile,] Especially you guys who want to.

[Talking skeletons... that's a new one.]

Half, yeah.

[He holds his tail, giving it a waggle.]

Guess I get to be the first then.

[keythatconnects]

Whoa is that a tail! That's so cool!

[satanslash]

Yeah.

[He pushes some hair away from his ear, letting Sora see the slight point to it, then pulls at his upper lip to show the fangs.]

It ain't super obvious unless I use my powers, but I've got a few weird traits.

[keythatconnects]

I bet! So what kind of powers do you have??

[satanslash]

I heal super fast, I'm really strong, I can hear and smell things a lotta things other people can't, and if another demon is smart enough but can't talk like a human I can still understand 'em most of the time.

Oh, and this.

[He lifts his hand again, pale blue flames dancing along his fingertips.]

[keythatconnects]

Oh! Pretty!

I can cast fire too, but not like that. Mines more... a fireball.

Hey! If you can talk to demons does that mean most of them just need someone to listen to them?

[satanslash]

[... did Shiemi call his flames pretty once?

He thinks that happened.

Either way it's making him flush a bit.]

Yeah. My familiar, Kuro, got really upset when the temple he used to be the guardian for got all rundown then demolished. He was hurtin' people because he was angry but Dad went to him and told him he understood why and offered to be his friend.

I had to do the same thing after Dad died, 'cause he didn't understand that Shiro was gone. I think it was probably easier for me 'cause I could actually, y'know. Hear him.

[keythatconnects]

You and your dad sound like good people. I'm glad that Kuro had you there after your dad was gone.

And, that you had him too.

[satanslash]

... he was.

[At least as much as Rin remembers him for.

Yukio seems to have a differing opinion, for some reason.]

I miss him, but I don't think a nekomata is gonna do very well here, heh.

[keythatconnects]

Neko-mata?

What's that?

[satanslash]

Nekomata is a type of demon cat. He's got two tails, little horns and can make himself super big.

[keythatconnects]

Ok. That sounds real cute.

[satanslash]

Heh. Kuro is pretty cute, yeah. I mean he's like over a hundred years old but he's still a cat.

[keythatconnects]

When you said 'super big' how big do you mean? Like, as big as a house?

[satanslash]

Uh. Yeah, about that. He's big enough that I can ride on his back!

[keythatconnects]

Whaat? REALLY? Why don't you ride him everywhere then? I think I would totally ride him everywhere.

Uh, unless he didn't like that, of course.

[satanslash]

Oh, he doesn't take that form all the time. It probably takes a lotta energy. He's usually just like... house-cat sized.

[keythatconnects]

So then... let him ride on your shoulders to make up for riding him when he's big!

[satanslash]

Oh, he doesn't ride on my shoulders. He rides on my head. He's like one'a those plushies with the beans in their feet. I mean, he's not really a plushie, he just lays like that.

[keythatconnects]

Whhhhaaat? That's too cute!! Do you think I'll ever get to meet him?

[satanslash]

Dunno. He never showed up in the other place I was in, so I'm not really gonna expect him to show up here.

I do have a picture with him in it, though.
