Fifteenth Flame : video; { brother from another mother... ?

[keepsthefire]

[Rin is in the Golden Victory kitchen, though for once his apron is off. His hair is slightly damp, and he's dressed in something a little odd (the one in the center) compared to his usual work uniform. No, there's no costumes this month, but he has a legitimate reason for being in something that looks more like proper host attire.

He also doesn't look too happy, either.]

So I got to start my day off with a damn blender explodin' all over me. But y'know... that ain't what's got me so irritated.

I'm hearin' some odd grumblin' around the club today. What's this crap 'bout "another Okumura"? And why the hell is everyone tellin' this guy shit about me?!

[He'll just wait (im)patiently for your answers, Vatheon.]

How gruesome... I'm glad there are those who get rid of things like that. That's even worse than a cat or a snake...

[Rin can't really relate, not being tiny, but he can still understand how that would be scary and difficult for her to deal with.]

I don't wanna be like 'em either...

[flyingdreams]

No, I understand... you're a sweet boy, after all. I can't imagine you quite like that.

[keepsthefire]

... I can still lose control.

[flyingdreams]

Control? What do you mean?

[keepsthefire]

Demons have power. Mine is locked in that sword I always carry, but... it's broken before. And I almost killed my friends when it happened...

[flyingdreams]

...Oh, I... I see. I see!

[Hey, she has a direct allegory to that!]

Do you have control of where you can put your power? Because maybe you can put it in something that won't break. Or in something that you can keep close, like a necklace.

[keepsthefire]

Uhmm... n-no, not really. I wasn't the one who sealed it there, so I can't really mess with it any.

But the sword got fixed by my friends. It probably won't break again. A-and I've been trainin' to control my power.

I wanna use my flames for a gentler purpose... that's... that's what my dad told me to do...

[flyingdreams]

Yes... yes, I think that's a very noble thing to do, Rin. I hope you pursue that to the end!

[Video]

[keepsthefire]

Heh. Thanks. I plan to!

Good! You'll be a good young man!
