[All that's in this voice clip is Issei screaming in pain for a few seconds.]

I'm aware. If you remember the doppelganger virus, this was a repeat.

[deadly_garden]

I vaguely remember it, yes. ...Then which one are you?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

The normal one. Although I've already acknowledged that I have no proof.

[deadly_garden]

...We'll know for sure when the virus ends, I suppose. [Even though just admitting to the lack of proof makes Kurama feel a little better] Assuming then what you say is true, just what did you do to your opposite to get him to scream like that?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thumbs. Eye sockets.

1/2

[deadly_garden]

[Give Kurama a minute, dear]

[deadly_garden]

Well. Impressive.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Don't be impressed by something like that.

[deadly_garden]

Why not? The eyes are a perfect vulnerable spot, going for those is a fantastic way to disable an opponent.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I know and that's why I did it. I just don't want to hear that you're impressed by something I didn't like doing or want to have to do.

[deadly_garden]

Which confirms for me that you're the, for lack of a better term, real you. Still, I am impressed that you did have it in you to do what had to be done, even if you didn't like it.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

He hurt people last time in ways I don't want to repeat.

[deadly_garden]

I can understand that, Issei-san. You're a natural protector, aren't you?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

You all seem to need it.

[deadly_garden]

There's no need to worry about me, at least, so you can take my name off of any list you happen to have. Everyone else, of course, I have to agree about.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'll worry as I like until you prove yourself invincible to attack, disease, and bad decisions.

[deadly_garden]

I don't quite recall the last time I got sick. While I'm not invincible to attack, I'm very good at defending myself [Although his stomach would like to argue that point], and bad decisions? Whatever could you mean by that? [The grin is very clear in his voice]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Right. I'll keep you on the list.

[deadly_garden]

Oh come now, Issei-san, really I'm not that bad.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

There are worse. You're still on the list.

[deadly_garden]

I've saved my world several times, are you sure you have to keep me on the list?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I am absolutely sure.

[deadly_garden]

Well that's hardly fair, Issei-san. We can't be protective of each other now can we?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

One of us will have to deal with it.
