I'm not a ghost I'm a God. There's a difference. I was never human, kiddo. Try and remember the facts, it'll get you far in life.
[ He smirks faintly and clears his throat, gesturing vaguely before putting a hand in the natural dip of Kaoru's back to guide him on his walk. ]
Going easy on you is part of your problems. He's not going easy on you, kid, he just doesn't know any better. His impression of modern times is a bunch of scantily clad barbarians running around and being hateful towards one another, with you being some sort of strange exception. After his little tiff with Rin, he's fairly certain he's going to fail abysmally at this whole thing, but he's still trying. He likes you, and since he does, its my responsibility to be as delicate as necessary with you both, but I'm not interested in doing everything I'm told, all the time. His depression is why I'm here. He can't hardly control me anymore. You know...a less dedicated shikigami would kill him for its freedom. Technically I'm going against the grain. I could eat him, if you'd prefer I behave more like a stereotype. That's your call, kid. I'll do what you want, you've got the choice - this me, or that me.
