[He's still not great at texting, so he had Gintoki give him some guidance on how to do some fancier technological things. He probably wouldn't remember how to do it again, but he manages a video broadcast that is hidden from one specific Lunatian resident-- Hashibira Inosuke. He's quiet at first, sitting with a silly grin on his face. He waves.]
I have a special announcement! It's my friend's birthday-- I'm sure at least some of you have met him. Hashibira Inosuke, the one that runs around without a shirt and wears a boar mask!
[He holds up a sign he's drawn crudely.]
I had someone teach me how to make this post so he can't see it, but it would mean a lot to me if you guys could wish him well today! He really likes food and fighting, so if anybody wants to wrestle a guy I can tell you where to find him. Be careful though, he takes fighting super seriously and is pretty strong! He'll mostly listen if you set rules though. I think. [He frowns.]
...if you find him and wanna fight, maybe tell me so I can make him listen, actually.

Very. I have my reasons. [That he doesn't intend to tell Hisoka.]

And I promised that I wasn't going to dig into what they were... well, so long as you're certain... that's all that matters.
no subject
[ Heh, heh, heh. ]
After all, just because a demon was once human... it doesn't mean that if they never became a demon that they wouldn't have been trash. [ :) ]
no subject
[His smile fades, but his expression is level-- even curious.]
I mean, you could argue that all humans are trash, if you look at it that way. Becoming a demon isn't usually a choice, so it doesn't have much to do with the person's prior actions.
no subject
[ his shoulders give a small shrug. ]
Those humans turned into demons... they had a choice to not kill. It would kill them for doing so but they chose their own lives over everyone else's. That is the kind of people that they turned out to be.
And you feel sorry for them... it makes me a little worried, I guess.
no subject
It's not the demons themselves I blame for that. Most forget their memories as a human and really... Aren't given the choice not to kill, it's just ingrained. Which is why I make the distinction in the first place.
no subject
You did make that distinction. [ A small sigh. ] You blame their nature, then. That nature of theirs that twisted whatever person they could have become, huh?
[ Hisoka has, unfortunately, forgotten what he was trying to do and gone into a mode of wanting Tanjiro to get mad. :T He would think the teenager would have shown some anger about how demons were forced to kill, but he just sounds sad and sympathetic. It's somewhat getting on his nerves.
A person that is capable of killing but having an aura of something soft? He doesn't like it. He wants to see real bloodlust and anger and feral status. Indeed, indeed, he knows that such a state isn't possible for ALL people who kill. But Tanjiro is young....... he can learn it. ]
Doesn't that make you mad?
no subject
[He actually considers the question for a moment, frowning slightly, shaking his head.]
I'm angry with the demon responsible for turning them all. The progenitor. Beyond that, anger at the rest of them would be misplaced.
no subject
The progenitor?
i don't have enough Stern Protagonist Speech icons for this ninny
Kibutsuji Muzan. I'm... not entirely sure how he was first turned, but it's his blood that turns every demon into what they are. He leads them with fear, and he's a wretched, cowardly being. [There's the tiniest spark of anger there, but it reads more like conviction than anything else.]
1/2 LMAO HISOKA IS WINNING SOMETHING...!!
He really thought that he would seem some anger about this Muzan, but there isn't anything. It's rather depressing. This person is exceptionally pure. How is that possible? Hisoka hasn't met an individual like this and actually takes a moment to accept that he's out of his comfort zone.
Everyone has a little bit of darkness and feral nature about them. Even the soft friends that he has, they have flashes of bright anger and tantrums. In short, he could break them at any time by destroying their own morals and hopes. But this person... this person... he's a little troubled by Tanjiro. ]
no subject
Even Kurapika, the man that wanted to revenge against the person that massacred his people had some true and honest purity to him. Dear Kurapika that spoke of justice and honor and refused to yield on these points... but Kurapika let himself be consumed with revenge and slowly blackened. Hisoka didn't have to do anything before the young man isolated himself from everyone and allowed his own corruption.
Gon has some real purity about him, too. But it is more feral, more destructive. That boy will become a real monster later and Hisoka looks forward to one day killing him. But ah, that's neither here nor there nor anywhere. The current issue is that as he stares at Tanjiro's face through the screen .... he realizes that he has not ever encountered a person like this. ]
Is that so? Do you hate him, then? Do you want revenge against him for all the pain that he has caused? [ Or maybe? Tanjiro is just the early stages of what Kurapika was. ]
no subject
[...sorry, Hisoka, this one's a little outside your comfort zone, for sure. He shakes his head.]
No. The revenge for all the pain he has caused isn't mine alone to take.
no subject
The reason for his reaction is mostly because, quite simply, he cannot predict this person. Normally, he is quite amused with the people that he can't predict. He thinks that it's fun, because they're the volatile sort. But if he were to go into a fight with them, if he was to drag them down so that they'd want to kill him, he could anticipate what they would do. In short, he could break their spirits completely and utterly -- he could see their pained faces and smile happily at their ruined selves before he finally lets them taste death.
This boy -- he doesn't think he'd be able to do that. That's the first person he's met that he is certain of that. The strength of the person doesn't matter; this person doesn't necessarily have to be strong, but Hisoka has met someone that he doesn't want to fight. ]
Ah.......... that's really sweet of you.
no subject
[He smiles, shaking his head again.]
I disagree, but I appreciate the sentiment. I have my own battles to fight, and it isn't fair to lay claim selfishly to battles others should be give or allowed to participate in. [Absolutely sickeningly sweet.]
no subject
Right, right...
[ Hey, let's test something. ]
What if someone wanted to kill Inosuke?
no subject
[He laughs-- the sound is a touch strained, but he looks relatively sincerely amused.] It would really depend on the person. He's really skilled, in a lot of ways and a lot of ways people don't expect, so he'd be a challenge to take down. [He looks directly at Hisoka, then, a sugary sweet smile on his face. It's a bit of a farce-- he knows exactly what he's doing asking this question.] And you're his friend, anyway, right? You'd help keep him safe.
1/2
2/3
THIS. IS. FINE. ]
no subject
[ He tosses in a good-natured laugh. ]
I just wanted to make sure that you were prepared in case something like that happens. Sometimes... there are quite dangerous things that spring up. I wouldn't want you to be unaware of them, Tanjiro.
no subject
Oh, definitely not. I mean, you know we slay demons for a living, back home. I might be young, but I'm usually pretty good at knowing what's up. [Except for now. He can't figure this guy out.] You're awful worried about it, though, did someone say something?
no subject
... I guess a few people seemed to wish ill on him. I think it's mostly just because he can be a little loud and that gets on people's nerves. [ TOTALLY. THE. ONLY. REASON. ] I don't know if anyone would feel pushed to actually kill him.
But you never know.
no subject
[He hums, nodding, fiddling with something off-screen that mostly serves to let him look away from the video for a moment.]
Mm-hmm, he does get kind of loud. But I think anyone who would try to hurt a kid just for being loud isn't anything to worry about. [He looks back up.] Especially not since he has friends like us, right?
no subject
Especially not... you're right... we wouldn't allow it.
