Once. A long time ago.

[that_cost]

Can I ask what happened?

[useofcuriosity]

She fed on the souls of a village, and was trapped in a stone.

[that_cost]

At least she was trapped.

[ Guess what? Charlie's definitely not sleeping tonight. This sounds nightmarish. ]

[useofcuriosity]

[Charlie, you ASKED.]

She's probably dead. With stones, there's usually a magical hammer.

[that_cost]

[Yes, well she regrets it.]

What happens to people whose souls have been eaten?


[And she's not a fan of shutting up, apparently. In for a penny....]

[useofcuriosity]

[Oh, that gets him looking at her with a strange look.]

They die, kasei.

[that_cost]

[...her eyebrows raise a bit.]

A soul is really that vital?

[useofcuriosity]

Your soul is your lifeforce.

[that_cost]

Huh.

[ Charlie doesn't believe in God, so she hasn't given much thought to a soul or whether it mattered. ]

[useofcuriosity]

It's nothing to worry about here.

[that_cost]

Because we don't have a ghost fox. Right?

[useofcuriosity]

Not that I'm aware of.

[that_cost]

You mentioned regret hurting you. What would you regret by respecting Joel and keeping away from his kid?

[useofcuriosity]

He hasn't earned my loyalty. Or my respect.

[that_cost]

He's trying to protect his family. That should be something, at the very least.

[useofcuriosity]

Why?

[that_cost]

[Charlie just raises both eyebrows, mildly shocked that he'd even ask. Especially after her rant at Joel on his behalf.]

Isn't that what Nogitsune and Kitsune do?

[useofcuriosity]

Then he should be better at it. I promised that I would try, and I will.

[that_cost]

[Immediately defensive.] If my dad shows up, you gonna say something like that about him, too?

[useofcuriosity]

Would I have cause to?

[that_cost]

Not in my opinion, but probably his.

If you want someone's respect, you'll have to show it first in some cases. Especially when it concerns a father and his daughter.

[useofcuriosity]

You're alive. I doubt that I'd have cause.

I've made my promise, kasei. What more do you want?

[that_cost]

Stiles. You said soon. Where is he?

[useofcuriosity]

[Woman, you have taken him aback by changing the subject so completely.]

What?
