[He still doesn't trust people, not here. Not anywhere, really. But he has to know. In a place this weird, he has to know.]

I'm just wondering... who here is not human? You don't need to tell me who you are if you don't want to, but I just want to get a sense for how many people who are not human are here.

I can't be the only one.

And a second question: is it safe for those who are not human here? I mean, I am definitely not like one of those beast things and I have no plans of attacking people. But human-dominated places tend to be somewhat unsafe for us.

And if you are some kind of mad scientist type reading this? Fuck off. We don't need people like you on our asses.

[Is that enough of a difference from his usual typing? He'll have to be careful about capitalization and punctuation so it sounds different from him, but...]

Yeah, sorry.
Your kind can die?

[hachitaro]

Yeah. We're physical beings so we can get killed and leave behind corpses and everything. Some of the other yokai are more spiritual beings and don't really die the same way. They can fade away if they don't have enough energy but they get that in various ways.

Not my species, though. And if there were people who knew we existed they could uh... well. Let's just say we leave behind things that could be used for supernatural means and not get into the gory details.

[eudaimonikos]

Huh.
That sucks.

I'm immortal, pretty much. We can get retired - not really dying, but about as close as we get - but that's a sort of public execution situation. Not likely to just happen.

[hachitaro]

That sucks too.

Though I don't think I'd like being truly immortal. Seems like you'd get bored and go crazy from watching people you care about die. Though I guess if they're already dead you can hang with them forever.

[eudaimonikos]

Yeah. That does help.

[hachitaro]

... I made it awkward, didn't I? Shit.

[eudaimonikos]

Ah, don't worry about it. We all have our weird shit.
