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?
[this really turned into lavi trapping akira in the sexy costume shop so he can ask a million questions,]
...It sounds a lot different from my world, but also kinda the same. The weapon I fight with -- Innocence -- is connected to me, but it's not a part of my body. But I've got friends who have theirs that's a part of them -- one of them has it in his arm and heart, and the other has it in his teeth.
[Fortunately for Lavi, when Lavi starts being more forthcoming about personal similarities, Akira gets more relaxed. He seems to understand.
me: his TEETH?]
Oh. I can change into Devilman when I need to get stronger. Sometimes, it can happen unexpectedly because... demons feed off your emotions. But mostly it's when I need it to happen.

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.

...Your emotions, huh? That must be pretty tough. You seem like a pretty emotionally honest guy too.
