twenty-eighth breath ✧ action

[musubi]

[There's a figure walking slowly and aimlessly out of the woods towards town. While it's easily identifiable as Isamu by appearance, his mannerisms and posture will seem completely off to anyone who knows him.

He seems physically fine otherwise, except that his yellow eyes are now completely aglow with the color. They narrow at anyone who might venture near him.

To him, everything is familiar and yet not, as if he's seeing it for the first time through someone else's eyes.

This is in part true, for it's not the mind of Isamu Nitta inhabiting this body currently. This is Noah, an ancient demon nearly forgotten in time, and this isn't where he belongs.]

I still want your word.

[Richard nods, then goes up the stairs and opens the door. Good... it looks like the others are mostly elsewhere for the time being. That will make it easier to help get Noah settled in and fed without him being bombarded with... well, the others. They're not exactly the most quiet housemates.

Then, remembering that Noah probably won't recall this, he adds:]

You'll be sharing a room with me while you're here.

[He stops, frowning.]

[ledbythewind]

Because there are seven people staying in this house and only six bedrooms, meaning that someone has to share. Besides, you seem to remember enough to know that Isamu and I are good friends, so I thought you might remember that much as well.

[He's clearly less than pleased with this.]

[ledbythewind]

Should I promise to behave myself yet again?

[ingrate.livejournal.com]

[ledbythewind]

Then what is it?

[He's honestly curious.]

[ingrate.livejournal.com]

[ledbythewind]

I won't let any of them bother you, if that is what you're concerned about.

[ledbythewind]

You want to experience what it's like to be a human, don't you?

[ledbythewind]

Just consider this a... "crash course," I think they call it? A crash course in human nature.

[ledbythewind]

[Is Richard laughing? Maybe. Just a little.]

[ingrate.livejournal.com]

[Narrowing eyes at you. :|]

[ledbythewind]

But you do have to admit that you will learn a lot more about humans by living with a group of them rather than living on your own.

[ledbythewind]

Now, what would you like to eat?

[ingrate.livejournal.com]

[ledbythewind]

[Think think think... Isamu wasn't really the picky sort, so...]

How about some curry?

[ingrate.livejournal.com]

[ledbythewind]

I think you'll like it, and if you don't, Asbel will take care of any leftovers.

[Speaking of, just where is he? Richard would like to fill him in on this as soon as possible...]
