Huh? Not that that of abnormality. But you're still weird, so...

[ ahem. ]

Abnormalities are what we call certain entities created from the human mind. They're not human, but I think there are Abnormalities that used to be human? [ like the magical girls... ] Sometimes we have to suppress these Abnormalities, and if we're lucky, we could get weapon and armor from them.

[cranekin]

(The emotional roller coaster that is

"Not that type of abnormality." !!!

to

"But you're still weird." Hey...

Well,)

Is that it? Then we aren't so different, really. Humans are the ones who create kami by sharing stories that give birth to them.

[wheft]

I guess? But I hear Abnormalities are artificially made and not... God-given or whatever.

[ once again, this is outside of her purview. everyday she wishes faust were here... ]

But the way you're brought into this world doesn't matter, right? Even someone like you deserve to live like everyone else here.

("Even someone like you deserves to live like everyone else."

He doesn't expect that to hit him the way it does. It takes him back to a certain place at the edge of the sea and he balks for a moment,)

You think so?

[wheft]

I think so. I'm probably not the best person to talk to when it comes to who deserves to live or not, but most of us here only have one life to live, right? Why not make the most of it.

[ he probably wouldn't get it as someone who'd lived for so long, but for someone like ishmael who had died and reborn a thousand times over? it does mean a whole lot. ]

Besides, any of us might be dismissed by LILITH at anytime. Better enjoy yourself now before it's too late.

(There are a lot of things he could say but it wouldn't even begin to cover all of the things he's thinking. How many lives has he been responsible for taking? Compared to how long he's truly lived, he's only had this form for a few short years. This form is a gift from his master so he should treat and use it well. At the end of the day, even if he may have a human form, he's still not really human. So how worthy is he compared to a real human?

Instead, he can only smile and agree,)

That's right! Who knows how long I'll have this form? I might as well enjoy it while I can.

(Carrying on,)

The last time I was here, I could only stay still and listen. This will be my first time checking it out for myself.

[wheft]

Is that so...

[ she walks a little ahead from him, still taking in the ruined sights, before turning around with a small smile. ]

In that case, what are you waiting for? Show me around.
