"Yeah, it's pretty fascinating." His discomfort is obvious but maybe it's for that reason she doesn't shift back. Exposure therapy. That kind of idea, anyway.

"Not my kind. But some of us can. Usually the lesser ones. They possess people to do their bidding, keep that negative energy flowing." Without it, yokai wouldn't exist so there's... a reason for it. Rose doesn't like it, or what she is, but can't deny it's a necessity. "I remember the demons, but- Our kind aren't all evil. We can be benevolent too. Like there's guardian wolves."
