[hoo boy, well, she has to consider that!!!

she's never really thought of them that way, but...]

Close enough. [that's really the most honest answer she can give. she cares about them, and they took care of her, so. hangups about the word or no, close enough.]

[piteous]

[ Vash at least can tell it's a bit weird to consider master-disciple as family, then the whole divine enlightened thing... Just worlds apart. ]

That makes sense if people think you're not human since you were raised by them... We pick up habits and mannerisms from people around us.

You seemed a lil' annoyed by it, though.

[bindings]

It's that, and the red ropes. It makes it easy for people to assume.

[she doesn't mind telling him, because he's on her team and he should probably know anyway. a pause.]

I'm not annoyed, I don't think. Or... [hmmm.] The idea of family makes me uncomfortable.

[piteous]

I had meant the mistaken for something else part, but... Sometimes family things, whatever they are, can be complicated.

[ An understanding nod! He won't pry her more on that since it seems like a touchier subject. Uncomfortable is not what they should be.

But. Uh? ]

Are the red ropes not a fashion choice...?

[bindings]

Oh. Well. You're correct, it does annoy me.

[as for the rest, though, she glances at him.] No. They're bindings. They keep my soul contained, and suppress my curse.

[piteous]

That's...

[ SHENHE REALLY SAYS SUCH ALARMING THINGS... He doesn't know if he likes that, but seeing as Shenhe seems okay with it, he should be, too. There's still visible concern. ]

How's your soul feeling?

[ Since he thinks he'd notice the curse if it's at work right now. ]

[bindings]

[help well you know. she kind of has to be fine with it, she does't have much of a choice! probably. maybe. the question gets a little heh.]

Fine. I'm not going to murder anybody.

[piteous]

[ HEH?

DON'T HEH ]

So this is where the homicidal tendencies come in...

[bindings]

[uwu?]

They won't become reality unless it's necessary. [the question as to what she defines as necessary however]

[piteous]

... Necessary, like self-defense?

[ just the anakin and padme star wars meme ]

[bindings]

[looks at him for a long moment]

That could be one of the reasons.

[piteous]

[ Looks at her for a long moment, too. ]

... If you ever feel yourself slipping, you know we're here for you.

[bindings]

[ah. well.

she just doesn't answer that. but it's clear she heard, and even as she changes the subject to something we can fade off on, she'll be thinking about that.]
