[Hm... He thinks that over for a second, placing a hand over his chest where his heart is without really thinking about it. Is it?]
D'you think? ...Maybe it's 'cuz I've seen humans in the worst situations before, but there's still some good even there. The place I came from - it was, um... Mm... If you think of the veeery bottom of the social classes where you're from, think of something underneath even that. Just under the whole system. And everyone on top of that, they'd look at those people like they were lower than dirt, too. The way you'd look at a bug you accidentally stepped on with a nice new pair of shoes, y'know? Except no one even wanted to talk about 'em or acknowledge they were around, 'cuz everyone thought they were super tainted. That's why they got kicked out to the dry riverbeds - nothing grows there. Maybe everyone hoped they'd all just starve.
[Some RETURN SAD FOR HER. did u know kashuu and gyuutaro and daki all came from the same caste, wow]
[ She doesn't know Gyuutaro or Daki, but if she did, she'd say that's proof he takes a kinder perspective since Daki and Gyuutaro became demons, and Kashuu is out here trying to take care of people like they're water bottles he has to look after.
She hates this day, but it's been illuminating in its own way. ]
That only proves it more. It would be so easy to hate when you're treated like that instead of trying to sympathize and acknowledging where you came from.
Kiyomitsu, you've come so far.
[ It's not touch week this thread, but she holds out her arms. She's not Buzen, and these arms are not wide open for everyone. ]
But!! These are things that mean a lot to Kashuu. Both the words she says, and the gesture that accompanies it. There's a little bit of a pause, but of course he's never one to turn down physical comfort and reassurance. It's how he communicates best, anyway.
So he steps forward, sighing out his frustrations with the week and going in for a hug.]
As it is, it seems to have buoyed his mood quite a bit! This is what happens when you're a very tactile creature. He steps back after she lets go, turning on his heel with a bounce to his step. A little distraction for both of them would do well, he thinks. No more considering selfish humans and the things they can do for now.]
I'd like to see just how wild you can get!
[They're gonna take back half of this dingdang closet for real.]

...Thanks. It means a lot, seriously. Hah...

We both deserve to treat ourselves today.
[ How many sad stories is she going to tell today because she refuses to let the Prism make her run? ]
Let's go wild in here.
