    Summary

    During Akaza's fight with Kyojuro, he manages to bleed into his wounds. However, it's such a small amount, neither of them notice. Weeks later, Shinobu is surprised and concerned by how quickly Kyojuro is recovering, and Akaza is confused by the new mental connection he seems to have.

    It doesn't take him long to realize that not only did he accidentally turn Kyojuro, but for inexplicable reasons, the transformation is so agonizingly slow, the slayer hasn't even realized it's happening yet, leaving Akaza torn between telling him the truth to brace him for it... Or letting him live the human life he so desperately wants for as long as he still can.

    Summary

    It is a common misconception that demons can’t have soulmates.

    Soulmarks do not disappear once a human is turned; in fact, they do not change at all. An active bond remains active, and even a newly-turned demon that is mad with hunger avoids attacking their soulmate. An open bond remains open, waiting for the right person to come along and say the words written upon the demon’s wrist so that it comes alive with color. And a lost bond remains lost, becoming gray and faded once the person it connects to dies.

    Most demons lose their soulmates before ever meeting them. The pain of an unrealized bond’s loss is painful enough that demons lose themselves to their base instincts for several days, but that doesn’t hold a candle to the loss of an active bond. Two linked souls are never meant to be separated, in life or death, and that is why humans typically follow their soulmates into death within days of their parting.

    Demons do not have that luxury.

    Summary

    Akaza had a thing about promises. They were always made with the earnest intent for him to keep them, and in the same vein, he hated liars. Lying was cowardly. Liars were pathetically weak and disgusted him beyond measure. There was no point in saying things he didn't mean.

    That was why he was always painfully honest, even in situations where lies would have benefitted him more. Akaza was a man of his word, and he'd be damned if he let anyone take that from him.

    Kyojuro came to a startling realization because of this. Demons were capable of being terrifyingly human when given the chance, and somehow, Akaza saw past all his barriers and right to the core of who he was. Kyojuro was not able to hide from him like he could from everyone else. This paired with Akaza's staunch defense of him, even from his own kind, got Kyojuro thinking.

    Perhaps even monsters desired a normal life. Perhaps Kyojuro could find it in himself to offer one to this particular monster.
