[ Click. An audio broadcast was being made in full session. However, there was no sound being heard as the audio cast is being made. For those who have almost perfect hearing will notice a faint sound being heard in the background. What was it? It would seem to be the sound of a low murmur reading while another familiar noise is being made. A more whisking sound? But don’t worry, Asgard, a voice will suddenly be heard after the first few seconds of audio. ]

Ririchiyo-sama? [ A female voice will be heard saying a very familiar name in a familiar way. Well, for those who know Ririchiyo and all. ] What are you working on?

[ Unfortunately for the other, no response will be given - or, at the very least, an instantaneous one. It would seem as though Ririchiyo was currently engrossed in reading the book that was laid out in front of her. “How to make pancakes” the header says, instructions being given in detail on how to go about creating such a thing. As she reads further on, she mutters the instructions to herself as she measures everything with precise precision, making no room for failure. ]

“Sift the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl with a sieve held high above the bowl so the flour gets a airing” … [ More instructions seem to be muttered when finally -- ] “2 tablespoons of the batter mixture” …

[ It would seem as though the first female was being entirely ignored by her master. And by the sound of silence, she did not mind being ignored. If only everyone was able to notice the sparkles and look of happiness on her face. She was finding the other female the most adorable. Without a moment to lose, the other female will get all the more closer to the younger one as she places a hand on either side of her arms from behind. ]

Ahh. It would seem as though you are working on making breakfast for us. If you don’t mind, I’ll stay here a little while longer before feeding our adorable kits. Please, continue the hard work. I’m sure they will be good...

[ She will offer a kiss on her partner’s cheek as her chest brushed against her back without a second thought. ]

… Huh? [ Engrossed as she had been prior to this moment, it would seem as though she had been thrown back into reality as the feeling of something against her back became more noticeable. It was hard at first to remember if she offered that Roromiya stayed the night, for the only female she knew who was this affectionate was no one else but her. But that couldn’t right, could it? Knitting her eyebrows together in thought, she slowly tries to do the maths. The only people who lived here were herself and Miketsu...kami... ]

Mi-Mi-Mi-Mi-Mi-Miketsukami-- [ Wait. ] -san?

Yes? [ The other female will remain in place, but the sound of confusion will not be lost. ]

It’s not “yes”. [ Blunt as ever, that would be good ole’ Ririchiyo. ] Why are you suddenly a girl!?

[ There will be some silence as the other female let’s go of Ririchiyo and begins to smile, very amused by her blunt question ]

What are you now saying, Ririchiyo-sama? I have always been like this -- female, just like you. [ Placing a hand over the younger girl’s cheek, she will give her a simple smile as she gets closer ] Although, I do admit... something odd is happening. All of my clothes are currently missing, and I wanted to know if you knew where it was. [ With a teasing voice, and getting even closer to her. ] Did you happen to hide them again? Just like the last time, I know you asked the kits to hide my clothes, so you can keep me here a little longer~ [ Whispering in her ears. ] You know I am always ready to show you everything, so there is no need to play those sort of tricks.

Spare me that shameless image. [ Remaining as blunt as earlier, she dismisses the other girl’s advances quite speedily. ] I have no reason to hide your clothes from you for, unlike you, I’m not that perverse.

[ Giggles. Why are you so cute? ] That is not what I heard the other night. You were definitely being as perverse as I was~ [ Turning away from the other, she will simply smile and sway back and forth on her feet. ] What a shame. It would only seem as though Ririchiyo-sama only acts like my vixen at night than at day. It isn’t as though someone is listening to us. It is only us girls. Why do you feel so shy?

S-Saying such a thing so early in the day... Th-That type of thing is... U-Ugh! Learn to filter your thoughts a little, will you!? [ Embarrassed, she moves away from the kitchen in a little off a huff as she tries her hardest to ignore the other girl’s presence. ] There’s only one girl here, and that girl isn’t you. H-Hmph! This must be a curse of some kind. That’s right - that’s the only logical explanation to this.

[ The other girls reactions will simply get a mischievous smile out of her. Following after her master, she was getting close in wanting to apologize for teasing her when she was clearly not in the mood for them, but the final part of her master’s speech will stop her in her tracks. Confusion and concern clearly taking over her more mischievous mood. ] Ririchiyo-sama....? [ The concern in her expression was more apparent as she holds her arms back to her side. ] Are you certain you are feeling well? There has always been two girls living in this household. You have never once lived alone here...

[ Hearing the question on whether she was feeling well was enough of a means for her to stare at the other with a deadpan expression, almost as if to question the other’s sanity. ] That’s my line. Asking me such a ridiculous question... shouldn’t I be the one asking you that?

….I am terribly sorry for offending you. [ Her gaze will lower as she bows before her master. It was clear that she was uncertain in the proper way to handle her master. However, as she was about to rise, she will notice a small light blinking onto her master’s arm. She will begin to blink a couple of times before standing up straight. ] Umm...Ririchiyo-sama, I believe your bracelet is... [ How to say it without scaring her? ] It is glowing...

W-What? [ Glowing...? Slowly, her gaze goes down to her bracelet on her wrist that was, as Miketsukami said, glowing. Which meant... ] Everything we’ve been saying up until now... everyone...

Overheard us? [ All said in a very amused tone of voice. ]

[ And now would be the part where a loud and piercing scream makes itself heard. If this was any indication, it would seem as though Ririchiyo wasn’t quite as amused as Miketsukami. ] AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!! I WANT TO DIE—!!

[ As per usual, Ririchiyo is purple whereas Soushi is silver. In short, Soushi has been placed under a curse where he believes that he is, and always has been, female. Replies will be coming from

onlyacurse from Soushi's end. ]

No point not being at least a little casual about it. Longest I've been in one place for over a year. Got hard shoving my tail into my pants every day and keeping my horns under a hat, especially after one of my messages ended up being accidentally really public.

[Even though she's being sociable, her eyes are more narrowed in suspicion at the revelation that they were or knew another half demon.]

Don't take this the wrong way, but I wouldn't say this is good fortune. I've got a bad record with demonic things. We're not exactly known for being safe or trustworthy.

I see. It would definitely explain it... [Souko could not help feel somewhat relieved her demon blood was currently dormant, so she was unable to transform into her true form. Yet, she was able to keep certain traits like having better nightvision than most humans, she was still somewhat faster and stronger, and is still unable to feel physical pain.] Althought, I am somewhat surprise this world is allowing you to keep your more demonic traits. Upon arrival, I was stripped away most of my abilities and transformations. The little bits I was able to keep for myself are the little bits of skills an Atavist inherited from their ancestors, but in a more downsize matter.

[At her explanation over having a difficult time with demons, she entirely understood her words and nodded her head.]

Yes, it is the same in my homeworld. Atavists, we are neither entirely human or youkai, so we attract the wrong attention from both species. Humans use us as charms of fortune because every family clan with an Atavist mysteriously become prosperous. While for full demons, many of them enjoy to hunt us for our blood, we give off an interesting scent for them. A scent that will motivate them to either cling to us, trap us as pets, or slaughter us into many pieces.

[She will trail off for a moment as pondering on explaining the reason for Maison de Ayakashi now.]

That is the reason behind my job as an SS agent, better known as a Secret Service Agent, it is my duty to protect other Atavists whom are not as powerful as to battle against the many dangers surrounding them. We have a facility which protects those in our position against both humans and full-blooded demons alike from attacking. I am uncertain of the type of person you are, but I will not attack you unless given a reason to do so.

[Then she begins to ponder further about her current words and much earlier words on the subject, but she won't voice her thoughts over it. Not yet, anyway.]

Traits? You mean the tail, claws and the horns? They don't do that much. They're not powers so much as deformities. A succubus, a real one, could keep that sort of thing hidden away. The fact that they're actually body parts for me's a sign I'm just half-blood where I come from. There's not really that much to them, other than window dressing. I think people sort of over-estimate what they can do.

[It was true. She was basically the equivalent of a catgirl, but with a little different look. Her claws could leave a nasty cut, but not much deeper than a cat's claw could.]

My real powers, the ones I got from my bastard of a Dad? Those don't work here at all, and thank god for it. I'm actually a lot more human than I ever remember being back home.

[She considered the other part. Ok, 'Secret Service' was something she understood, but mostly as something vaguely mentioned about protecting US political figures.]

So, the other girl's like you, and someone you protect. Are you actually hooked up with the US Secret Service in your world or is it just the same sort of name? Either way, you don't have to worry about attacking. As long as I'm not crazy at the moment, I really prefer to just live and let live. No point fighting someone who doesn't want to fight.

Yes, that is correct. [As she listens to the other's explanation over her own form and a reason behind keeping her more demonic traits, she will continue to ponder as she hopes to keep the information in mind.] Are there other half-demons like yourself, Grey-san? Also. Do all half-demons have the difficulty in hiding their traits? I am uncertain if it helps in any way, but young Atavists have difficulty hiding their true form due to their inexperience in keeping their minds focus of their human forms. Do you believe...there might be a way for you to learn to hide your traits and seem more human if someone who is able to fully control their transformations offered you lessons? [It was more a curious question than an offer to help. Souko wished to fully learn more about her and her world because they sounded eerily similiar, but held their uniqueness.]

I am happy to hear it. From the way you are currently expressing yourself, it sounds as though you are happy with this change. Right?

[Then at her own questions, her expression will turn to a more formal smile as she was currently withholding her emotions. The idea of having revealed Ririchiyo along with her did not sit well with her, but she will not show such an expression at all. At the moment, they were having an enlightening conversation.]

Yes, she is someone I serve under. And no, we are in no way associated with any type of government. From my current understanding on the matter, the SS and Maison de Ayakashi, the facility I spoke of, were created for the purpose for Atavists to live in peace with one another while co-existing with the human society. The SS, as I explained beforehand, were created with the purpose to serve as a potential job a fellow Atavist can pursue while keeping certain they do not lose themselves to their more demonic traits as they have in their previous life. Atavist who become ferocious and begin to attack both humans and other Atavists alike must be terminated, but will be placed under a watch list to be certain they will be better raised to be more pacific and use their abilities for good.

[And at the other's words on the subject, she will continue to smile in her formal and professional matter.]

It is wonderful to hear. I will be certain to keep an eye on you nevertheless and follow your example as well. [In other words, she will simply keep an eye on her, so they never end up crossing paths. She did not have any intentions in getting into any fights especially when the other party seems to take precautions in not wishing to harm others.]

Hmmm, bit of a mouthful. Let's go down the line one at a time. As far as I know, there's very few cambions running around. My mom snuck off to the middle of nowhere to have me, but they tended to get killed at birth in my world. No luck on hiding traits. The horns are literally like little black antlers, coming right out of my head and I don't have any magic to reshape my body. Tail's the same way too. If I had a choice, I'd like to be a regular human, but that's just not really an option.

[She nodded at the explanation about their world. It was a lot more structured than hers was as far as that went.]

The last time they tried to set something like that up for people with powers, not just demons, that went over like a lead balloon. Huge fight over it, mostly because the guy that set it up was actually lying, corrupt bastard, but that's beside the point. It doesn't work too well where I come from. Glad it's better for you guys.

As for when to watch, keep an eye out around the new moon. That's my suggestion there.

I see. It is a pity. [Her story was beginning to sound a lot harsher than the life of an Atavist. Ignoring the whole bullying by family relatives, being under total house arrest, and being treated more like an item than a living being -- at least they had a home to live in, where they were protected from full demon attacks for many years. Then again, her life was harsher than the life of most Atavist, in a way.] Even so, I do not believe it will be entirely necessary. At the end of the day, it would seem most people from within this world are aware of your demon linage... [Then she begins to ponder over a thought, but decided to save it. As the other girl has expressed -- go down the line one at a time.]

Yes. We have a very powerful and influencial youkai, who thankfully, do not hold any greed or dark intentions over creating the system to help keep the relationship between two different species from turning hostile. It was all done by the goodness of her heart. [Even though, Souko finds her meddlesome, she knows the kind elderly woman did not mean any harm. The elderly woman only repeated the story heard within Souko's own heart. A story she did not read fully because if she did, then she would have been more discreet over her past in her master's precense.]

Understood. I will do so. [A bow.] Thank you very much for the helpful hint you provided for me. You truly are most kind.

They are. I was unable to hide it after an incident early on in my stay where I briefly was lost to the gray. Further concealment was made meaningless shortly afterwards. Helping to keep people aware of these things makes it simpler in the long run anymore. So, don't sweat it.

I'm just glad at least you guys seem to have a better setup.

Unfortunately, I cannot feel at ease in allowing others to know about our true identities at the moment. [All said in a pondering tone, she cannot help begin to wonder.] For my master and the others to be given the chance to be treated as normal human beings is a great pleasing for them. I would much rather they never speak nor reveal themselves of their true nature to others. You never know when there will be a hunter hiding within the group of Travellors. [She didn't trust humans. Simple as that.]

Yes. Thank you very much. We are truly blessed to have a peaceful living and enviroment.

[Then she begins to wonder at her idea further, an idea she has been pondering to herself about.]

Grey-san, by any chance, are there other half-demons or full-demons roaming within this world just like you? If it is not too much to ask, I would like to know...

Perfectly reasonable concern. I think you're smarter, but just a heads up. You're not going to be able to stay out of the way of everyone here. People just like to insert themselves into your lives. It'll give you a lot more headache fighting it forever.

[sigh]

Regina's the closest, but she's not the child of a succubus or incubus. I haven't seen any other cambions around here, and there's nobody from my world, for which you can be seriously grateful.

Understood. I will keep your warning in mind.

[She will have to make sure to keep everyone away from her private matters. Luckily, she did not have anyone in such a position because it would seem all of their acquaintances fully understood the importance of their privacy because no one has tried to meddle in their affairs.]

...Regina!? [The other's words will catch her full attention because she knew of someone with such a name. She can't help begin to wonder if it is the same person or not.] Does she have a last name, by any chance? I all ready know someone by the name of Regina Berry. She is a circus star. Are they... [No, rather.] ...is she whom you are thinking of or...? [It would seem by her tone that she was showing genuine concern over another person, who was not her master.]

No, this woman was definitely not the same. She has no connection to the circus, and I think she's from another world entirely, a very old one. I thin it's another Regina honestly. [A curious glance in response to that set of questions.] Are they around here, or in your world?

[At the response to her own question, she could not feel comfort at knowing it was an entirely different person, who was the half-demon. Althought, she could not help feel slightly disappointed at the thought as well.]

...I did not realize there was another young lady with a similiar name to one of my closest aquaintances. I do admit, when I heard you speak her name, it slightly shook me.

[Then shaking her head side to side.] No. She is someone from another world. [Nope. She is not going to admit in having made herself responsible in wishing to look after the other younger Regina. She did not wish to mix a non-demon in a demon conversation, after all.]

Is she only known as Regina? Does she possess a surname?

I only know her as Regina. She... honestly, I'm starting to think she doesn't actually live in the housing around here. Platinum haired woman, a bit on the feral side. She's got a very old, formulaic way of talking. It's hard to understand sometimes, and she's really hung up on demonic things, more than me [Which, by her standards, was saying something.].

I guess it's possible it's the same person, but I don't know for sure. Has she ever had a public ... for lack of a better word 'feeding' issue where she's going a little crazy on the network for lack of blood?

No. By your description of her, she is not the same individual I am speaking of. She sounds entirely different to the young girl I know. [Which is good.]

A platinum haired woman, whom is a bit of the feral side? [Shaking her head.] No, I do not believe I've had the honor to speak with her. Then again, I am not always hovering over the network due to my responsibilities towards my master. And it would seem, as though, my master has never spoken with her either. Nevertheless, I will be keeping an eye out for her throughout the networks.

[Then she wonders:] Do you have any advice on the best way to speak with her? As you have spoken about her possessing a fierce side, she can be quite dangerous, yes?

She's really stubborn and proud. Try not to make it look like you're protecting her. She's growled every time I tried to do that. If she's crazy, just avoid her. Don't look for her, and she'll try to avoid everybody else. If you don't get a choice, just try to knock her unconscious. Don't hold back, but definitely try to knock her out.

[The advice will be recorded, in order, to be used for future use. It was clear that Souko was serious about using the newly learned information to communicate with the other half-demon, who seems to be more wild than Samantha.]

Understood. I will keep your warning in mind whenever I formally get the chance to speak to her.

[Once she spoke those words, a smile will appear on her lips before she offers a formal bow.]

Thank you very much for the warning and information, Grey-san. It is most appreciated. I am uncertain if there is any way to express my deepest of gratitudes towards you and your kindness.

Don't worry about it. I think you're trying to already, honestly. If you come up with something, warn me ahead of time. Random acts of generosity sometimes get their hands slapped around me. Touch paranoid.

You two just take care of yourselves.

All right then. I will warn you ahead of time, if I find a proper way to repay you. To catch you off guard, it is not my intention to do so.

Yes. [Another bow.] Thank you, again. It was a pleasure to meet and speak with you. Do take care of yourself, as well.
