Come One, Come All For A Taste Of Reality

[Prince Kurtle]

I seem to have the battlezone thing, too.  

[Prince LitLantern]

Okay. Let's have a zanpakutou conversation.

One part of the zanpakutou said, "I'm Jackolantern!" And, the other is showing me a picture of Azazel he swears to be blushing.

Okay. Let's pick up from here. Let's let the guild know my zanpakutou.

Okay.

You need to be able to tell when a red devil is blushing. When a red-blooded, red-skinned devil is blushing. I can tell. Very easily. It comes naturally. Why can't you tell? Are you looking? Are you blind? Are you colorblind? Why can't you tell?

Okay. I'll explain this. There are microexpressions in a person's face, and body. You need to learn to read them. And, in telepathy. Capture it. Learn to read the emotion. Don't be fooled by red blush on red skin. They do blush. And, it does show. You're so shy, Cocuyo, that you can't see it. You make your flirtation partners blush. And, you don't notice. So, you go on questioning if they really like you back, until they get less shy. And, your abuser pushes them to rush back to you, instead of allowing you a slow-lifed romance of a boy that has plenty of time to take to flirt you're way into their heart. You don't need to rush. You can be shy. But, remember you do need to be observant to play the game. If you won't pay attention to all the details, you will miss the forest for the sound of the tree falling.  

[Prince Kurtle]

"Why does he have a picture of Azazel blushing!?" I cry.

crying  

[Cracklenchimes]

It's confirmed. That your zanpakutou is a genius. Like others.
But, why are you being so unaware, and outside of your battlezone?
Where are you?

My spirit joined the conversation. confused  

[Prince LitLantern]

Whispering to self: "Where are you?

Oh, no. Oh, no.

This is... A zanpakutou meditation question. Where am I? He's asking if I see the zanpakutou world. And, where I am in it, if I'm in it. He wants to know how progressed I am in meditation. Okay."



Response From "Jack":



"Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. Know English. This is exactly what I need in a battlezone is a language barrier with my zanpakutou."  

[Prince Kurtle]

First, he shows him Azazel blushing in a photo... Is it a real photo?

Then, he's turning to Spanish.

With a love song.

I'm getting scared.

We've been through some things that this is scary.  

[Cracklenchimes]

Check out the PTSD guard. He might need to retire, and pursue another career.

Or, he's possessed.

Is, maybe, the bad woman that's obsessed with Nightcrawler jealous?

He's pointed out... That Kurtle isn't untouched when he's exactly the group Nightcrawler that she means to target, and is openly so.

And, he pointed out he's got a battlezone, too. So, they're working on his case.  

[Prince LitLantern]

Okay. Zanpakutou... Jack...

"Uh-huh?"

You didn't express that question mark very well.

Okay.

*sigh*

*muteness*

I'm trynna-I'm trynna...

Okay.

I need you.

"You pay me."

You pay me?

"I'm a person. You pay me. I'm not fake. It's another psychopomp job."

Oh!

Okay. Well, I need this zanpakutou thing.

What is it?

Is it a sword? A knife? A bow? A gun?

Do I have a prayer of using it?

"Well, not if your suicidal. Calm down. You're not ready for battle. You don't look at the opponent. You'll strike a friend."

Oooohhh! You!

Uuuuhhh!

You're saying... That I'll mistake a friend for an opponent because I can't see them.

"You're not literally blind. Look!"

I have poor vision.

"It's a hologram. To keep you in the hologram glasses."

Really?

Why would they do that to me? No. I don't believe it. My family can be trusted, and they give me my real... Um... Almost legal blindness.

"In California..." " rofl " "People drive that badly visioned."

Well, they don't do that in Arizona. For obvious reasons.

Now, tell me, how am I supposed to see a red devil blushing with red blood in his veins. Is there a slight pigmentation change?

"Well, sometimes. But, not really noticeably in that photo. That's not how you can see it. It's in his cheek microexpressions. They're demurely softened."

Oh. A softening. Okay. Like... A melting?

"Well, kind of. If you're being stern, it might result in melting into the softness. When demure, or romantic, or bedroomy, or flirty people soften into gentility. At least, in our upper classes, we do."

Oh.

"Azazel s upper class. He softens. Know your enemy. Or, your prize."

Oh. Wow. My bounty?

"Yeah. You need to know..."

So, I need to tell them apart? And, know my enemy?

"Yes. From multiple of my consciouses. You need to know who you're fighting. And, you need to know things like if you're liked back. And, you need to notice possession cues. That is also apart of shinigami work."

Oh.  

[Cracklenchimes]

I think... You also need to learn to tell yourself apart from your possessors. With possession such a big problem in this battlefront, you need to notice it in yourself. Because if you don't, they might puppet you into striking the wrong opponent, or your friend. *gasps* Oh, my! They want me to attack my own friend. Hold on. I gotta work on this.  

[Prince Kurtle]

A photo!? It's a photo!

Why do you have a photo of Azazel blushing!?

Where did you get that?  

[Prince LitLantern]

He is very blatantly possessed by a jealous woman.
Despite that he's a Kurtle.
That's not right.
It's right alright. She's freaking out into his voice.
She heard Orihime, and Benihime mentioned, and she's jumping to crazy, possessive, paranoid, schizophrenic conclusions that "her man" Azazel is not her man. She can't handle the truth that he's not her property.

"Right. He's no one's property. She can't handle it. To her, men are property. They're wallets. She's not a good girl."

Is she a girl?

"No. But, she certainly claims it when targeting the boys, doesn't she?"

For clarification, anyone reading this unaware, this conversation is for real life. It's not for in character. We don't RP the pervert situation. It's a real situation. Those people are really being purged from the games as COVID19, and they're attacking some of their game victims in real life that they got the real contact info. for. Do not give your real life contact info. to random strangers on the internet, including in these virtual reality games. Even adults shouldn't.

Okay. Back to the zanpakutou. Jack.

I need you.

Give me you.

He indicated to just submit, and no words. He's just going to ignore me.  

[Cracklenchimes]

Prince LitLantern

He indicated to just submit, and no words. He's just going to ignore me.

Like a possession communication, it's unclear who really said those last sentences.

"Maybe that was the point? He's possessed, and can't handle a weapon?"

Yeah, but... Maybe he knows now to look at faces.

Oh, no.  

[Cracklenchimes]

crying

Now, I'm crying.  

[Prince Kurtle]

What about my zanpakutou?

"No. I think you're further gone than him."

[Cracklenchimes]

Now, I'm crying.

Oops! I somehow posted a minute before him. Time isn't right here.
