"...no...I've never played a video game..." He says.

the man simply hands him a copy of dark souls for the pc before continuing on making sweet rice balls and going over to delta's room before knocking on the door, leaving solaire with a fourth wall break

Solaire sorta gives it an odd look, and he looks at the back of the case.
"What the...." He starts.

Delta is sitting on her bed, tapping her foot against the floor, and when she sees the man with the food, she smiles a bit.
"Hia." She says.

"hey, you ok?" the man asks evenly, his voice calm as he shuts the door and walks over to sit on the bed next to her, offering a rice ball as he gets ready to speak with her for quite a while

"Y-yea..." She says, taking it and chomping it. "Thanks." She adds, chewing the rice ball. She half liked it, but it wasn't anything special.

"listen, it's obvious that i need to know more about you... but since i know very little i'm going to start with what little i do know. tell me about your curse?" the man asks evenly and despite he's calm tone she could tell her was wary about the subject

Delta points to her right eye.
"After I killed a gorgon, with her last dying breath, she cursed me to turn into a gorgon, so I would forever be alone...." She says. "The pills I take reprogram my cells....reversing the effects." She says.

[supertinyking]

Tsubaki clings to Kishin, sorta snuggling into his chest.

"and i take it you're afraid of that?" the man asks evenly, noting her actions and mannerisms especially surrounding her scales and wishing to be covered up most of the time. the man nibbles at one of the rice balls as he listens to her, lifting his mask just enough to bare his mask while still being able to see

She smiles.
"I missed you." She says, her watch beeps. "Damn it, looks like subject 593 is getting rowdy." She growls.

"Want me to help?" I ask

She looks away, at her feet. She remains silent.
".......y-yes...." She says,tugging at her shirt so it covers more of her.

the man wraps an arm around her shoulders in an attempt to comfort her as he says quietly yet calmly despite being in an odd situation for him "you have nothing to be afraid of. there is no more curse, there is no more "impending doom", the scales are just a part of you now just like your arms or legs and they'll respond to your will if it's strong enough... tell you what, how about i teach you something that i developed myself?" the man adds the last part after a bit of thought, actually offering to teach her something the way most people teach things instead of using the "watch and learn" method like he had been

"That would be wonderful." She says, as she takes his hand and leads him away. She heads up to a vault.
"This is sorta my "Theta-d" of sorts." She says, as she starts to punch a number in.

"Ah." I say "can it absorb dna?"

[supertinyking]

kishin asura said
"Ah." I say "can it absorb dna?"

"No, it assimilates new technology...." She says. She still has trouble punching in the code. "Damn it, I think he switched the pass code." She growls.

"...These..things..they aren't part of me..." she growls. As if to prove it, she rips a few out, and throws them to the ground.

"tell you what, how about i teach you that trick i use for my feathers?" he offers, rubbing her shoulder in a small effort convey that he's here for her as a teacher and a friend if she needs it

"I can see how that would be annoying." I say "and a bit scary."

"Yea...Damn it, stand back." she says, as her robotic arm pulls back for a rather nasty punch.
