so he has her by the arm and now what? what is the next thing that he wants to do? he, well, the first thing he's going to do is release her arm slowly so that she doesn't feel like he's holding her here.

he's a demon slayer? naru how the FUCK am i supposed to get her killed if even the demon slayers won't kill her for nonhuman crimes!! --is what i was going to write here but then work got busy and i couldn't tag back until after death announcement CRIES ABOUT GIYUU]

no subject
[stop looking at her.................
she's just going to very slowly back away in the hope that if she doesn't move too fast he won't notice until she's gone]
no subject
he's going to notice.
and he's still waiting for her to explain herself. ]
no subject
(and closing her eyes so she doesn't h ave to see him staring at her)]

Is that strange?
[ but honestly, she doesn't raise any "demon" flags but a lot of "inhuman" flags so he has...questions. multiple questions. ]
no subject
[a beat]
Not that I am one, but I know what it must have looked like...!
no subject
[ so, unless flayn is about to confess to eating people—giyuu's will continue to keep his sword by his side. ]
They also do not transform slowly or show compassion to other people.
[ well, there's an exception to that one but he doesn't know that exception. ]
