Thread: ✗ ✘ øυϯ øƒ cøηϯяøℓ ✘ ✗ [Viktoff Samson & SoTheySay]

Watching Kana as she recalled her horrifying experience reminded Shin of his current state of affairs. The reality of his situation was that any given fight or exposed flesh could set him off. As she continued her explanation, his eyes on her own, she somehow reminded himself of his first few months of sheer hell after he forced himself to go cold turkey. It would be the same as deactivating the parts of the human brain that controlled anything outside of directing the body to food and obtaining it by any means possible. He's running on raw, pure instincts this whole time. He's just managed to interrupt the process reliably enough that he doesn't shove a bite of human into his mouth on-sight. When she got to the point of referring to her initial desire to revenge consume her captors, Shin narrowed his eyes but wouldn't look away. A careful eye might pick up on the fact that he knew exactly what another ghoul tasted like, and it certainly wasn't an accident either. He wouldn't get his chance to intercept the conversation to add such a useful tidbit, but he imagined that any developing sense of ghoul instincts should direct her straight toward human flesh instead. Her second bow would make him smile as he reflected on what she had to say the moments leading up to her escape to the bathroom to change. He was learning more about her at a steady pace. Just what did this young lady go through? What was she now? Would it only be a matter of time before she was like him? Or would she become the one-eyed ghoul of legend? Shin didn't like to think about this too much, it already hurt to use abstract thought granted that his body was trying to restrict that sort of resource hogging action. It didn't help that the One-Eyed ghoul myth was frequently told to him by his family, and that's where he was given the idea that it'd be a Fudo's seed and a human's egg that would create such a formidable force of duality. Thinking about his family didn't help anything. With her retreat into the bathroom seemingly taking a few minutes longer than he initially estimated, the starving ghoul shambled his way into his bedroom and fetched another brown mug. He didn't want to risk any form of cross contamination. What if fasting the brief contact of his sexy Fudo brand ghoul skin on the rim of her cup sent her into a ghoul devouring frenzy? She clearly wasn't human, and he was confident there was something very different about her. The fantasy that his imagination set forth would further detail itself as he just plopped the rest of the bag of red stuff into the coffee pot before stirring the contents of the coffee pot vigorously. With the intense heat of the coffee maker still heating the contents and all of the empty space from the two missing cups, Shin was free to blend this 5050 coffee and red stuff mixture into a lavish concoction which was smooth and somehow creamy with it's redness. He imagined she'd somehow be created to be an anti-Fudo tool, sent to abuse his hospitality only to catch a bite of his superior and dense RC cells. Unfortunately for his make-believe villains, Shin hasn't been eating and his RC cell supply is inferior to that of an average human's pinky. He smiled in defiance, pouring the concoction into her new mug as his deranged brain continued it's fantasies. He knew this was killing him, but that was his prerogative. With a bit of a chuckle, he set the steaming cup down on the glass table as Kana was making her way out of the bathroom. I showered already today, I just gotta clean up. It shouldn't be all that long. He reassured her before leaving the room. He wouldn't be keeping an ear on the door for any signs of her ruffling through his stuff or whipping out a hidden phone to call in reinforcements. After all, even his unhinged psyche knew the difference between mildly amusing fantasy and the reality of her situation. With a mild smile, he took a clothe from from beside the sink and got it wet before bringing it closer to his chest. After swiping the moist cloth across his chest, he peered down to it to find a smear of blood. Almost as if the room was caving in, a buzzing hit his ears as his mouth would fall open. Gripping the sink's side with his free hand, the red marking's of Shin's Kakugan expanded beyond the barriers of where his eyes ended. His tongue would hang down as saliva dropped down into the sink. His left hand would hold the cloth away from his face as he watched the red mark intently with a haunting facial structure a human would be incapable of imitating. Would this be the moment that his instincts finally blew past his various techniques he's developed to keep him civil in this time of falling apart? Before his body would naturally answer this question, the sounds from Kana's troubled slumber reached him through the haze of his intense hunger and pain. Within a blink, almost as if Shin wasn't quite recording these events the way someone normally would, he had the door open and his face was immediately normal minus his ever-present Kakugan. The cloth was dropped in the sink, even if he didn't remember dropping it. Assessing the situation carefully, Shin remarked at the quick return of his critical faculties just because he feared for this stranger's safety. There was something special about her, that's for sure. His eyes followed her Kagune, a disturbing introduction to this whole scenario. Approaching her to calm her down could easily lead to his death. Any would from her Kagune could lead to his demise granted his lack of RC cells, he wouldn't heal and he wasn't hard to cut through at all. And yet, he couldn't find a single spooked bone in his body. There wasn't an ounce of true fear, and he wouldn't hesitate the moment he decided to approach her. Slipping behind her as he hugged her head, letting her back rest in his lap. He couldn't guide her Kagune away. If this one behaved anything like the red portion of his own, any stimuli would invoke an instant and uncontrolled action. He simply had to hope that his scent would somehow calm her, or his touch. Kana, Kana. Wake up. He spoke to her, not finding the strength to speak urgently.
