[This is Amaterasu looking positively ecstatic.]

The boundaries are gone! I am free to roam Nippon again! [Laughs brightly.] And Sakuya managed to contact Oki! I suppose I shall have to hunt down Issun and Waka myself, the troublemakers. But first, of course, I have a curse to dispel in Agata Forest~

[Bounds in place a bit.] Ah, it is so good to be free!

[Smiles.] You'll have to forgive me. I...find it difficult to be sarcastic when it comes to Yami.

[Contemplates the question for a moment.] You carry a small piece of him inside you. But like I have told you, there is the human scent to you as well. [Smiles again.] You shouldn't be so quick to disregard it.

Forgiven. I find it difficult not to be when the topic is about things that go bump in the dark. Or that dark that gets bumped around.

Really. I'm touched. Course, a part of me wonders just what it'd be like, sinking my teeth into the full meal.

[Just smiles at that.]

Would you like me to take the fun out of wondering, then~?

[And a grin at that]

That depends. What's your idea of a cure?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Work, Jackie Estacado. A cure is always work.

And what work did you have in mind?

[She is silent for a moment.] Darkness is most afraid of the light, because the light is what dispels it. Bringing light into you would work to chase it away. [She looks at him, eyes hard.] But light can be just as painful as darkness. Nothing can be hidden in light.

The work would be about making the right choices. About correcting past wrongs and mistakes. About facing it--the darkness, yourself, the things you have done and seen...everything. [She pauses.] It would be very, very difficult, and it would take a long time. But if you think that it will be worth it, then I would help you.
