With a lot of man power, you can out up a decent fight. Guns, missiles, bombs, things like that. But if there are too many demons, it won’t do much good.
Lavi blinks at the lowered voice, and then the words that follow. He looks surprised, but not shocked. More like thoughtful, as if some things are clicking into place.]
So you've got the best of both worlds, huh? [IS IT? IS IT THE BEST? IT ACTUALLY SOUNDS LIKE IT COULD BE VERY SAD] Is it okay if I ask how that happened? Or were you just born special?

He starts putting some of the pieces over his own clothes just to see what it's like. Curiosity.]
Oh. [Wait.] What kind of job?
no subject
Fighting, mostly. Retrieval too. I fight monsters called Akuma back home.
[he plucks a floppy beach hat from the sexy cabana owner costume and puts it on Akira's head]
no subject
Did you say... akuma?
no subject
Yeah, you recognize it?
[akira is the first...]
no subject
Yeah. [...] I did the same thing. Fight demons.
no subject
Really? [His one eye is all big and round] What kind? And whaddya fight them with?
no subject
They're just demons. They're all different. [You mean your CATEGORIZE YOUR DEMONS, LAVI?] I fought them with...... myself?
[Why is Lavi helping him put on the outfit... He swats at him gently.]
no subject
lavi gets swatted, that's fine,]
Yourself? [(lavi voice) ALLEN?] Were they demons like from the Bible kind of demons?
no subject
Yeah, myself. [Protags. Love them.] They were.
no subject
...Yourself, but with powers?
no subject
I need powers...?
no subject
Can anyone fight demons in your world???
no subject
[Lavi, your technology.]
no subject
Huh, so you can beat them with man-made weapons in your world.
[interesting...]
-- Wait, but... do you use weapons?
no subject
…Nah.
no subject
Woah... Amazing... [he's impressed?]
no subject
He glances up at Lavi, frowns uncertainly.]
There are powers.
[He broke so easily.]
no subject
I've got powers too, but only when I use my weapon. What's yours like?
no subject
Oh, you do? [WOW.] I, um... I'm just really strong. [He... fidgets. He glances around them carefully, and then he lowers his voice.]
I have the strength of a demon, but a human heart.

no subject
I let one of the demons possess me.
no subject
except he blinks at the 'possess me' part,]
And it gave you its strength, but left the rest of you normal? ...What did it get in return?
[AKIRA'S LIFE?]
no subject
I overpowered him, so he didn't get control of me. I got his strength and form when I need it.
no subject
Huh... Are you the only one who's like that?
[because if so... then that's kind of lonely...? what is with teenagers fighting in wars against demons,]
no subject
No, there are... other...
[He hesitates uncertainly.]
...There are other Devilmen.
