❝ i don't have any reason to lie to you; what good would that do for me? ❞ while he understands the ideaology behind her perspective, he just can't bring himself to agree. something like taking hold of another's body, even with consent can often tempt even the most good natured of individuals into doing something evil. he knows what the human heart is like; he has a closer relationship to it than he'd care to admit. ❝ never mind what i can and can't do. what i can do is take you home, little spirit. are you ready to go? ❞ he thinks she's dwelt long enough in this world; anymore and it might seriously damage not only her spirit, but her ability to return entirely.
it's his sneaking suspicion that the longer a living human spirit lingers in this world, the less likely it is they'll be able to safely return home. too long and they might die, preventing them from ever going back. the swordsman stands, robes billowing out behind him as the wind picks up and whips his white hair around his face. ❝ i told you from the start... this isn't where you belong, this isn't where you should be. you have to go home, and i know the way. are you coming? ❞ his back is already turned to her; he doesn't need her to see what kind of face he's making right now; the sadness of losing company with which he'd grown fond. but it's for the best... he knows that. he can't be selfish and rob the living of what they deserve. to live.
He spoke words that fell on deaf ears; words that applied to her more than they could possibly apply to him. If anyone was undeserving here surely it was Loni. A monster like her never did a thing to earn his kindness, his protection, his honesty. If only he knew all his hopes for her would be for naught. This life of hers was only meant for one thing: revenge. The moment she achieved it death would follow swiftly. For why live when she no longer had a purpose? No longer served any 'good' being a scourge 'pon the Earth?
"I don't think that powers is inherently evil though... Sure in most cases it is. Anyone with ill intention would grasp onto it and never let it go. So much evil could come of it, but for evil to exist so does good." She wasn't sure that made sense, but right now all she wanted was to console this man. His pain was felt so deeply that even she was able to pick up on it. A sixth sense of hers she'd noticed ever since her body was made to match the monster that was her very soul. "If you're lying to me I'm gonna be mad. If someone tells me you could totally take me over I'm going to beat you up the same way I did that azakana the other day. For lying!"

❛ is this really how you want this to end? ❜ give me yone for sess
OF COURSE THIS ISN'T WHAT YONE WANTS. his life as a wandering spirit in the realm of blossoms had been one he was once keen on keeping tranquil. but with the appearance of azakana and the violence upon human spirits they brought, he'd no choice but to raise his swords in the defense of the innocent.
here and now wasn't much different. the two of them were utterly surrounded by demons... as they were called in this world. he didn't fully understand it, Yone still wasn't sure how he'd exited the spirit blossom realm and wound up here, but he'd never been given much time to contemplate it. not when his life was constantly in danger. an alliance, at least, with this particular demon had granted him some small respite, but nothing more. ❝ what other choice do we have? ❞ his words a swell of regret; of frustration. ❝ if you mean to survive this, i'd suggest leaving me behind to fight them. it'll buy you some time to get away. understand? ❞ he's basically not offering an alternative for his companion; Yone believes sacrificing his own life will pave the way to a better outcome.

he truly does appreciate the depth of her sympathy for him, but a part of him believes it's wasted. he died a dishonored man; he failed the one person who meant the entire world to him. he regrets not being able to set his brother onto the right path and believes he rightfully died by his hand. a part of him has always wondered if there was something more he could've done in life; if he'd somehow acted differently, said something differently... it didn't matter anymore now though, did it? everything he thought he'd done right, was done wrong and now he was facing his karma. a spirit trapped between life and death, cursed to wander aimlessly for an eternity with all of his regrets strapped to his back.
❝ i am undeserving of it. ❞ he provides no further context than that, and returns his gaze to her beautiful countenance. she's so lovely and so alive that he wants nothing more than to return her to where she belongs. this world isn't for her; she still has a future to experience out there for her, unlike himself. she can't be trapped in this place forever. ❝ contrary to what you believe, i'm not a ghost or a spirit. ❞ he laughs lightly. ❝ i don't possess the power to invade someone else's body, and i wouldn't want to anyway. those powers are for the evil, like the azakana you see me fight. ❞
As someone who's senses revolved heavily around her nose it hurt to know he didn't have that either. Taste was one thing, but to no longer be able to sit outside during the midst of a summer rainstorm, inhale deeply as the scent of water and wet earth invaded his senses... "Lo siento." She offers quietly before packing the rest of her food away and tucking it into her bag.
Noting his expression she carefully moves to place a hand over his own, giving it a soft squeeze. She wouldn't tell him how badly she wished that wasn't the case; how intense her desire for death was. Loni wouldn't spit on him nor his kindness. That was for certain. "I wish I could share it with you. If it was possible in any way I would." Voice trails off as she forces a smile to her face. "Can you take over my body like a ghost? Maybe then you could smell and taste the way I do?"

she really is an odd one, isn't she? rather than inquiring about the conventional things one might eat, she's more focused on the unconventional. ❝ no, nothing. neither taste nor smell. ❞ his response is oddly quiet and he appears... pensive. he's not looking at her anymore, but gazing out into the brilliantly beautiful pastel landscape instead. ❝ people believe when you die you're free, but that's not the case at all. there are plenty of things i wish death had taken from me instead of my taste and smell. ❞ memories, for one. burdens and weights of the world you carried when you were still alive. those never seemed to leave you, no matter how much he tried to be rid of them. ❝ you should be thankful you're somehow still alive despite being trapped in this world. ❞
It's strange, of course, to ask such a thing. However, could anyone blame her? Loni would have died if she lost her ability to taste things, but she'd manage if she could at least taste non-food items. Although in the grand scheme of thing everything was food to something out there ( maybe not here though ). "Well it's a question. You can't taste food so maybe youse can taste other stuff... My next inquiry was going to be blood." Said with a completely straight face as her head tilted sideways. "Can youse taste that, Yone?"

he's always known her to be a little on the strange side, but this is a little unexpected, even from her. bemused, a sigh exits his lips as he descends from the treebranch he'd been perched upon, landing silently on the ground below. he then moves to sit beside her, shaking his head in astonishment. ❝ no. not even that. why you would want me to put that in my mouth though... ❞ there's an arched brow as he stares at her expectantly. ❝ do you eat sticks? ❞
"I don't mind. It's not a huge deal..." She could easily save it for later, which in hindsight was a smart idea, when she was actually starving. Given that she wasn't sure the next time she'd be able to snag food that would be a good plan. "So does that mean taste in general? Or like..." She pauses and glances around before picking up a stick. "Can youse taste this?"

❝ oh... no. ❞ the swordsman turns his gaze upon her, his smile somewhat soft. ❝ you needn't stop on my account. i was just lamenting... i didn't realize i did so out loud. ❞ he's a tiny bit embarrassed about that, but he'll recover well enough. ❝ no, not since i died. i haven't been able to taste any of the foods i used to enjoy. ❞
She pauses mid-bite... "Um should I stop? I didn't realize youse weren't able to eat food, or taste it?" A pause. "Does that mean you can't taste in general then?"

SHE SPEAKS IN HARSH TONES SHARP ENOUGH TO RIVAL THAT OF A KNIFE. sharp enough to cut through his resolve and mentally stumble for a moment. had she somehow misinterpreted what he meant? it was troublesome if so, but Yone isn't entirely certain how he should navigate the thoughts swirling his mind right now. if only she knew how badly he didn't want to get rid of her right now. ❝ i'm not trying to get rid of you Loni, i'm trying to take you home. ❞ i'm trying to preserve your life. wasn't that enough? wasn't that what he should be doing right now? or was he going about this all in the completely wrong way?
did she not actually want to go home? she's walking ahead of him now, and even though he should be the one taking the lead, he's left to helplessly trail behind the woman. wondering how he might go about even trying to explain to her properly what he means to do here. this world is meant for the dead and he knows he's told her that already; the living were in immense danger here. when the dead were slain by Azakana, they simply ceased to exist. but when the living were slain by an Azakana, they went through an unspeakable amount of pain because of it. ❝ you... don't actually want to stay here, do you? ❞
he's hesitant to even delve into that question, but the way she's acting leads him to the suspicion that may actually be the case. ❝ you don't want to go back to the world of the living? ❞ he's much too curious for his own good, and one day it's going to get him in trouble; but he wants to know now. why, if she did want to stay. there was nothing here for her ( he certainly didn't think of himself as a reason to stick around ). a slain && dishonored swordsman would make for a terrible companion anyway.
Her plan of attempting to lighten the mood backfired. How foolish she'd been to think she could manage such a thing. Yone, most likely, was just being kind. He'd mentioned time and time again how he'd find a way to send her back, and alas it seemed like he finally had. He's probably looking forward to having me out of his hair. She'd glad he had turned to face away from her because surely she'd have the most pitiful, pained expression written across her own.
"I told you from the start... this isn't where you belong, this isn't where you should be."
Yes. Yes she knows this. This world was not meant for her ( not yet at least ). She wondered if one day she'd come here, but not as Yone was... rather as the very things he killed. Honestly she hadn't a clue because she still didn't understand where this was or how a person could get sent to this world. He wasn't a ghost nor a spirit so in a way he couldn't be dead ( technically speaking right ), so perhaps there was no way for her ever to come back even if she died? "Fine. Let's go."
In a fit only she was aware of she stands and quickly brushes past him. Back to a world where I have to be cruel, back to a world I have to support on my shoulders, back to a world with her in it, back to a world I just want to die in already. "Then you can be rid of me and go on with your life."
