[Akira - the fuck? That one?

But it's pragmatic to ease into the unknown, despite familiarity. Palaces and false realities hold unknown dangers. Absorbing a creature in a COMP, into a soul -

It's necessary to be cautious. Akechi types out a retort - deletes it. ]

Understood. I suppose it matters little what you choose to take on when all the shadows are this pathetic and weak. They're all fodder and nothing more.

[arsenist]

We all have to start somewhere.

Would I be correct in assuming that you haven't contracted with any since they're so "weak and pathetic"?

[He would like to be proved wrong, actually, but Akira wouldn't put it past him.]

[Cu Sith exists in his COMP. Irritated. Vicious. Tries to escape when freed, only to be pulled back over and over.

It's so worthless to him it barely registers as an ant. He almost forgets it exists, until it's time to dangle it in front of others.]

I contracted with one to use it as bait for the powerful.

It's worthless to me. Its only use is as a stepping stone to gods or Hereward. Both of which have yet to appear.

[His expectations were wrong!! Akira's delighted.]

Sounds like it might be the wrong type of bait, unless you caught something already. What kind are you using?

[enteloki]

[Don't be delighted Akira he torments the thing.]

Cu Sith.

Unless you have a suggestion to make its life worth my time, I plan to sacrifice it soon and rely on my own means. I don't know how you stand having such a weak being in your presence.

But I suppose you're getting used to it, given the pathetic leech always at your heel.

[Fuck Maruki ♥]

[arsenist]

[Neatly sidestepping that potshot at Maruki-]

I stand it when it comes to Shadows by only sacrificing them when I know I have something stronger to replace them, for starters.

[He could get hit or die for what he's about to say, but it's worth staking his life on.]

Have you tried petting it?
