You know - if one partner goes, they can stay alive if they find someone else who has been unpartnered. And I know at least one or two of those. So it's not the end.
This is all assuming we even match, anyway.
[she reaches to tap his cheek gently so he'll look at her.]
[she adjusts his shirt for him in a fussy way, and then:]
I don't want either of us to die, either. But - I said I'd help you, yeah? Protect you, make up for the shit the adults in your life didn't do for you.
But I'll do that either way, partner or no, so! Here. I'm an Oni. Up to you to tell me it matches or not, krill.
upon the two of them finding each other, a glow will suddenly emit from both of their bodies. magic will course through them, and they will both feel immediately that a wish is waiting to be granted.
they will also immediately feel their upgraded power: the ability to cast a powerful illusion that can last up to 12 hours ]

It's much better than the last place, that's for sure.
[ Stops to smell flowers!! Wow... how peaceful. ]
no subject
Gods, yeah, I'm so glad to be away from the feeling of being watched constantly. Puts you on edge, like we haven't got enough of that.
[big, deep breath, because she likes the outside air...]
no subject
Which means bathrooms.
[ he cares about this so much ]
no subject
You hoping they've got the good hair stuff in there? [teehee]
no subject
Satoru got some toiletries for us. [ Runs a hand over his hair. ] But yeah, maybe they have something nice.
no subject
[snorts. she looks over some of the flowers absently, tail swaying back and forth.]
Hey - Suguru, I know this is a random question, but it's been on my mind. You looking for your partner at all?
no subject
... Not exactly. I want to find out who it is so that I know, but I haven't decided if I want to do anything about it.
no subject
[things have Changed a bit. sigh.]
Did you ask for a hint?
no subject
[ Turning to face her. ]
You think we're a pair?
no subject
Maybe. You think you're an unexpected troublemaker? [teasing a bit.] We could trade anyway.
no subject
[ troublemaker... wao ]
We'll be locked in if we trade monsters, though.
no subject
Well, I'd hope so.
[at the first part. and then:]
Yeah. We would be, so if you don't want it - you haven't got to. [...] But I wouldn't mind.
no subject
You changed your mind. You want to save yourself?
no subject
... Maybe, yeah. Even if it's just long enough to find a way to save all of you.

no subject
Gale's been trying, but his partner doesn't want to be found.
[a pause, and she exhales.] Both of them got very fucking mad at me at the start when I said I wouldn't.
no subject
Satoru thinks it's too risky too.
[ ... ]
But there's something worth the risk, for me. So I'll trade if you want.
no subject
This is all assuming we even match, anyway.
[she reaches to tap his cheek gently so he'll look at her.]
You want to tell me what that something is?
no subject
Wow... you're gonna move on from me that easily?
no subject
Suguru.
[flicks his nose.]
I mean I'd tell you who to go talk to so you wouldn't die with me, you little terror.
no subject
Oh, okay. I actually didn't know that. Explains whatever happened with Iwatooshi's partner, I guess.
I mean... I still don't want either of us to die, but that's good to know.

He still looks a little surprised when she just tells him, and only hesitates for a second, ]
I'm an oni too.

Probably should've asked you what your wish was going to be before I just said it, huh.
[...]
Don't make me regret it. Please. [tugs his hair.] Partner.
