Event Eleven.

"Four ducks on a pond, A grass-bank beyond, A blue sky of spring, White clouds on the wing; What a little thing To remember for years -- To remember with tears!"

he day is normal. It's a bit chillier than it's been, the nip of fall in the air, but as the new people in the Town settle in... things have gotten peaceful. And yet. When everyone goes out to greet their neighbors, to hug their friends, to shake hands or make eye contact or who knows what -- they'll realize very, very quickly that nothing about today is normal at all, actually. Hopefully nobody minds a little extra sharing today. Welcome to Awash's eleventh event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well. If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

...Yes. So I can see.

[Why does he have... a tail? He said he's not human, so he's apparently not just a person who enjoys dressing up as animals as a recreational hobby.]

What are you, if you don't mind me asking?

[satanslash]

[That's surprisingly popular where he's from, and tends to help him get away with "its cosplay" as an excuse pretty often.

Here, though. Well, no need to be so secretive in Chroma.]

Demon. Half, actually. My mom was human, but she passed away when I was born.

[usedlick]

[Oh, a demon! That makes two that Akira knows now.]

I'm sorry to hear about your mother. [Condolences are a thing you give to a statement like that, right? But he's more interested in the demon part.] But you're a demon? Like Mr. Valvatorez?

[satanslash]

[A shrug.]

Not like I really knew her.

[Unlike Shiro, but... that's a story for another time. Maybe.]

Dunno who that is! There are other demons here?

[usedlick]

He's the only one I've met. He has pointed ears and talks a lot about comrades.

[He's pretty nice for a guy that wants to scare humans.]

[satanslash]

Well pointed ears is right. Dunno anythin' about "comrades".

[Was he an unknown Demon King? Or just a relatively high level with some related kin? Is this a demon Rin even wants to meet? Some weren't exactly happy with his existence...]

I mean, I was raised like I was human for most of my life, so I don't really know how actual uh... Gehenna-born demons work all that well.

[usedlick]

Gehenna-born?

[He isn't sure what that means. His systems weren't really made with anything more than cursory understandings of religions and myths, and without the internet he can't search for anything more.

So he has to rely on old methods of gaining information, like actually asking questions.]

[satanslash]

[Welcome to what life is like for everyone else, buddy.]

Gehenna is basically hell, at least where I'm from. Assiah is Earth, just under another name.
