>"More or less. And I got my pictures."

>Ranka grins and laughs. "You're gonna be the envy of Honoka if she finds out. She's been hoping to duel Iku-san for years now."

>Ranka sticks her tongue out straight away. "Blech. I've actually met that one. You can keep her. Oh, wait, you were talking about Honoka. Um......" After a moment's thought, Ranka makes another face. "Nah, Honoka can do better than that one."

>"Heh. Let me tell you, Tenshi is no slouch. She may be kind of...well, you know. But she does have something to back it up."

Hello Purvis · « **Reply #556 on:** March 25, 2014, 07:03:07 AM »

>"This also reminds me, did you and Honoka ever face with the Eientei crew? I'm also thinking of a being by the name Fujiwara no Mokou, who appears similair to Honoka in some ways."

>"I'll take what I can get, but go on?"

>"All you can see is the flesh." Ranka explains, brushing her flowing hair back from her face. "But this is just a shell, it's not who I really am. It's pretty, yeah, but someone connected to the winds would be able to see past it, see to the real Ranka behind the skin and hair and stimulating clothes. But you can't. It's just one of the things you've lost, all your people has lost."

>"It is true. It's just a fact." Ranka says simply. "Your people are damaged. It's not your fault you can't see that part of me, but it's the truth."

>'"Why?'" Ranka barks out a laugh. "Because hurts need to be healed. If a human breaks her leg, she doesn't just go on to the orgy down the road, she gets it fixed. The tengu are walking wounded." She pauses. "Wait, was that how Daikuki put it?" After a bit of thought, she nods. "Yeah, that was it."

>"Well of course you are. You've blended being damaged into your identity as a race. And you're so arrogant you can't even acknowledge the possibility that it's really a wound. I don't even know if it can be fixed. I haven't thought about recommendations, since you wouldn't listen to me anyway."
>"But I'm not blaming you." she adds. "I can tell you're young, you've probably never imagined anything else before today." She smiles again, a more friendly smile than the last one. "Maybe that's why you're even talking to me as much as you are."
