Hello everyone! My name’s Kotone Shiomi. It's nice to meet you :D


I’m just a second-year student from Gekkoukan High. I like music, and I’m part of the Health Committee at school.


Oh yeah, I have another favor to ask. Would you mind telling me more about your monster affinity and how it’s affecting you? I’ve noticed that I run a lot faster now, and I’ve got these cute pointy ears. They weren’t there before. There are probably tons of things I haven’t noticed yet. I’ve come to accept these changes without much trouble.

I wonder how these things affect your daily life.

[Man, his heart wasn't in that one. Is he becoming bitter?]

I'm Serph. I'm the one with six wings, feathers, and glowing hair and eyes.

[He usually spends mornings sitting on his pickup truck with his wings spread, drying them. He's not hard to spot.]

Travelling with the Convoy changed life more than the transformations, both fluctuating and not.

[xxiis]

It's like these changes just manifest on their own. It could happen overnight or weeks later.

I heard one of my friends changed too. How are you managing?

[xxiis]

You're almost like one of those angels from mythology.

I could see that happening easily. We're always on the road, after all.

i'm part dog now. i can even turn into one. and my senses are stronger.

its weird. i still don't know what to feel about any of it.

[He doesn't like it, but its become familiar.]

I’m Ren Amamiya and I’ll be a third year if I ever go back to school. My blood type is O, and I enjoy cooking and long walks on the beach at sunset.

[Obviously this is a joke, Ren is already very Taken. But bestiiiieeeee we gotta talk!!]

I’m still not sure what I’m supposed to be turning into. All I have so far is some new magic abilities.

[bufudine]

Can you elaborate? I know archangels as a type of demon.

[While that's true, it's more...]

I already underwent a similar transformation before my arrival. The worlds I came from lack plants, yet there's no people here besides us.

[faceguy]

im managing

names leo btw
whats a health committee even do? you a nurse or something?

[xxiis]

That probably comes with its own set of challenges. It can't be easy.

Maybe it'll take some time for you to adjust.

[xxiis]

You're so silly. I know you already, Ren-kun.

You made delicious curry, by the way! Thank you for the meal.

It's the same for me actually. I guess we'll find out sooner or later.

[xxiis]

The angels in mythology are usually depicted with huge wings.

In the legends, angels are known to come from a place called heaven. The archangels are demons in your world. Are they seen as evil?

[bufudine]

[Heaven... There is something about it he feels like he's missing.

Hm. Evil... the answer isn't so straightforward.]

In the world I came from, the sun's rays turn humans into stone. Humans developed the demon virus so they could live beneath the sun. But there is conflict between humans and those turned into demons.

[The demon virus is both humanity's salvation and its destruction.]

The virus was tested on me before this.

[So he is a demon, too.]

[undyingcrow]

You're gaining feline traits as well, Shiomi-san?

I recently uncovered the ability to shift into a more cat-like monster myself, entirely unrelated to my typical chimeric state.

It also seems capable of wielding electricity, whereas my chimera form can manipulate wind, fire, and water.

Granted, as a chimera, I also have the sharpened hearing of a feline, not to mention my legs are more akin to a white tiger's. However, horns and avian traits are hardly comparable to a cat.

[solitarysoul]

yeah. its not always good when i can hear or smell better.

i've gotten used to a lot, but its still...i dunno. i don't know how to explain it.

[xxiis]

Leo!!! You have a cool name. Not really, I'm not a nurse. I just try to make sure people are taking care of themselves.

Back at home, we have this thing called Apathy Syndrome. It makes people say strange things, and they become so numb to the world around them. It's awful.

My school has an infirmary. A lot of students go there for different reasons.

Do you get sick often?

[xxiis]

Living in that kind of world can't be easy. People turn on each other. Even the sun becomes a threat.

Hopefully, you weren't suffering from any side effects.

[xxiis]

It looks that way! I'm not sure what it's supposed to be yet. We'll find out eventually, I guess!!

Cats are nimble, and they're great at seeing in the dark.

Those traits could come to your advantage without you even knowing.

[xxiis]

I get that! Sometimes when you smell something foul it'll hit way harder than it should.

It's okay, you don't have to force yourself to explain how it feels. Just take it easy.

[bufudine]

Some will always fight in any way they can.

What is a student?

[He has only heard of the term from some of the Maribel, but it was the same sort of half remembered information they never experienced that made it difficult for them to elaborate. ]

[faceguy]

pretty sure in my world we just call that depression

me, sick? nah. maybe once a year when dad would pass the flu around

[phantomshow]

[That’s why they call him Joker, he’s just a silly little guy!]

I’m so glad you liked the curry. I’m happy to keep making it for as long as we have the supplies.

Tell me more about your cute pointy ears though?

[undyingcrow]

They do have keen eyesight, hearing, and a strong sense of smell. Some of these traits already manifested in my chimera form.

Though, I can't say I mind retractable claws for tasks that require more dexterity. Even simple tasks with talons took significant adjustment.

[propatriamori]

[Ugh, text. Any replies will take a few moments, because he needs to use the text-to-voice feature.]

I can pick up cues from my environment based on vibrations I feel through my feet or hands. I'm also able to climb walls.

[He recently grew a second pair of arms as well, but he's not going to lead with that one.]

[xxiis]

A student is what we call someone who learns every day.

They're usually young people hoping to learn more about the world.

Have you never seen a school before?

[xxiis]

Depression's a reality that some people can't ignore.

Living is difficult. So that's why we have to make the most of our time here.

What's your home like?
