Anemone From the Greek anemōnē, "daughter of thew ind." The Anemoi were four wind gods in Greek mythology. Protection against evil or ill wishes. Red: Death or forsaken love
[THIS DOES NOT MAKE IT BETTER WHAT IS GOING ON THERE AHHH it's okay. she's glad he does not look like he wants to murder her but she's sort of gazing at him wondering why this is a thing.]
That feels a lot less like science and more like...something really, really questionable.
They're made with special protections. [Since it's not really practical to walk around everywhere in like. Suits of armor.] Spells or something... and protective materials. Akuma blood is poisonous.
[So it'd be super awkward if it seeped through and fucked them over while they weren't paying attention.]
Lavi told me a little about how the Akuma are made. What the Earl's doing with them, too. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that they're also a little harder to kill when you're Exorcists.
[Normally he bitches about Lavi talking to much but in this one specific instance it is helpful because it means he can be lazy and explain less]
Mm. Normal people can't do anything. [Which is why, back when he'd assumed this was a typical Exorcist issue, he'd been so confident that no one else could do anything useful. It's actually easier here, in a way.
BUT BEFORE WE GET LOST IN THE HAZE OF WEEKEND BETRAYALS you can have your real memshare--the scene shifts again, playing out something else.]
[oh there's. a lot happening here? there's a lot happening here, and for a moment aerith's quiet as she absorbs everything from the memory. even when it's over, she's keeping her silence to give kanda and herself a moment to comprehend what was shown before she asks any questions.]
...did you know at the time that you would make the decision to remain an Exorcist? [or did that confrontation change things?]
[Well, he doesn't love having this one shared either, especially since it's a very personal thing--but it's not the most personal, so he looks unhappy rather than, like, murderous when it ends. It takes him a second to shake the memory off and understand what she's asking.]
Yes. [It's as the old man said--he'd already known. That confrontation wasn't even why he'd returned, though there had been some satisfaction from it nonetheless.] I went back to get Mugen.
Oh. Like...do you two remember things the same? Some people who're from the same place see to have been pulled here from different points in their history.
[me, assuming it's because lavi's in a chair somewhere. knowing nothing about dgm.
aerith, assuming there's a discrepancy but not enough that it bothers the two of them too badly.]
...that's good at least. It always sounds a little jarring when I've heard it from other people. Even if the time isn't that much of a difference. I guess I was just wondering.
Hm...Caelus and Robin, though Caelus and Boothill did, too, I think. And Gojo and Geto but theirs is so small I don't think it matters to them. Robin told me she knows a little more than Caelus, but she's making sure he goes home without knowing things so he can learn them and keep their flow of time right.
Really does make it sound like they have poor planning skills, doesn't it? [she also has been wondering why on earth the cult didn't just pull from the same place.]

...Kanda. Please tell me that's an exception and not a norm. [WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE.]
no subject
Anyway he looks like he wants to murder someone. Not her. Just in general, because of how fucking stupid this whole thing is.]
Those science section weirdos need to be locked up. [IS IT AN EXCEPTION... KIND OF... BUT NOT ENOUGH OF ONE TBH]

[Maybe he will rearrange his priority list to put "kill all of the science section for being insane" at the top actually.
He probably won't. But maybe.]
no subject
Buuut you still need them around anyway?

They make our golems and our coats... and they study Innocence...
[TRAGICALLY... YES... THEY DO NEED THEM...]

What's so special about your coats? [let's start there.]

I don't understand this cult.
