Playmaker-san asked a good question about if our powers defined us. It's something I've been thinking about lately.

What if you have a power that goes against even your biology?

If it changes something about you that's always been a requirement?

As a Ghoul, I've always had to eat humans to live. There's no other way, it's how Ghouls are. How our bodies work.

But...the Porter has made it so I can eat human food now.

Before it made me sick. It tasted horrible. But now it's good, it doesn't make me weaker to eat it. If I can eat human food to live now, instead of humans...

Does that change who I am? Does it change what I am?

I have always been a Ghoul. I don't know how to be anything else.

[ 'i don't know if i want to be anything else' goes unsaid, but it's there.

thanks for the existential crisis, kidou. ]

Okay! I'll meet you there!

[ and just like she said, Hinami will be waiting at the porter for Maya, all dressed up and ready to go. ]

[missleadingquestions]

[Hinami gets to witness the pink princess herself driving up to the porter on her scooter. She herself isn't as dressed up as Hinami, but that's okay.

She gets to play big sister today.]

Hina-chaaaan~!

[She calls as she pulls up in front of Hinami, giving her an eager grin.]

C'mon, hop on behind me.

Maya-san!

[ Hinami is on her way as soon as she spots Maya. She's a little nervous, having never ridden on a scooter before. Nonetheless she obediently clamors on behind the medium. ]

Where are we going?

[missleadingquestions]

To commit a crime.

[Maya says without a second thought, reaching back to hold Hinami steady with one hand as she pulls off on the scooter. Once they're going forward she lets Hinami go and starts to laugh]

We're going out for Udon!
