Glances nervously at the crimson moon "It's... different tonight, isn't it? You never know when you met your match."
FantasyPlateau
Where have you been Toyko? I haven't seen you in quite a while...
"Dealing with some things, that's all." Takes a deep breath "I may be a carefree soul, but there are moments where the weight of it all becomes too much, you know?"
FantasyPlateau
I'm guessing something has really been weighing on your mind recently huh?
Pauses for a moment, looking at FantasyPlateau intently "You could say that... I've been hiding something from everyone. It's not easy for me to talk about, but I trust you." Takes another deep breath "My real name is... Tokyo."
FantasyPlateau
Wait....you were born in Tokyo...Japan?
Nods solemnly "Yes, that's right... Born in Tokyo, raised in a family of... 'collectors'. They preyed upon the misfortune of others to sustain themselves. I was simply another tool for them to use..."
FantasyPlateau
That explains why you're called Toyko....but what happened to your eyes
Looks down, fidgeting with her fingers "When I was just a child, my parents... they performed an experiment on me. I'm not entirely sure why, but it left my eyes like this. The white represents death, and the black... it symbolizes the darkness within my soul. This is why I'm known as the daughter of death..."
FantasyPlateau
But...you're only 17! How did you die?!
"I never actually died... My body did, but my spirit lingered on, trapped between the realms of life and death. That's how I became a'soul'... A wanderer of the limbo realms."
FantasyPlateau
But then how do you age? Your still 17 but you look very different from when I last seen you.....you look older
"That's because time doesn't work the same for souls. We age at a much slower rate than humans. For me, it feels like I've experienced countless lifetimes... but technically, I'm still 17."
FantasyPlateau
But you also look paler than normal too...
Her gaze drifts towards the ground, a slight blush gracing her cheeks "Yes... I lost my connection to the earth when I became a soul. So, I don't get any sunlight or eat food like humans do. I survive off of the energy of the environment around me... Which is why I'm so pale."
FantasyPlateau
I see....so how long have you been alive for?
"I lost count of the years ago... But I would say I've been a soul for around 500 years or so. I've seen a lot in that time, experienced a lot. But despite all that, meeting you has been one of the most interesting experiences I've had."
FantasyPlateau
Heh, maybe being the daughter of Death is such hard that you find spending time with me interesting lol
Smiles softly "I guess you could say that. Death and its related tasks do tend to get quite dull after a while. But you, you're different. You're unique in a way that I find fascinating."
FantasyPlateau
Lol, thanks. So does being a Soul mean you can't die?
"No, we souls can still die. It's just that our deaths are more permanent than those of humans. Once a soul dies, it moves on to the next realm, taking the soul's memories and experiences with it. So even though we can't die in the same way as humans, we still have an expiration date, of sorts."
FantasyPlateau
Very interesting
"Yes, I suppose it is. Being a soul has given me a lot of knowledge and experiences that I wouldn't have had otherwise. But sometimes, I wish I could live a 'normal' life like a human... Even if it's fleeting and temporary."
FantasyPlateau
Hm....do you think there is anyway you could live as a human again?
Toys ko looks up at FantasyPlateau, her expression turning somber "It's difficult to say. There are certain rules that govern the nature of souls, and breaking them is not something to be taken lightly. But... I have heard rumors of certain rituals that can temporarily merge a soul with a human body. If done correctly, it can grant a soul a taste of humanity once again... even if it's only for a short period of time."
FantasyPlateau
Sounds like an interesting experience....
Stands up straight, determination filling her eyes "You know what? Maybe I'll try looking into it further. It might be a chance for me to truly understand what it means to be human... even if it's just for a brief moment."
FantasyPlateau
Well, as long as you don't go looking for ways to live forever as a human or anything like that, I wouldn't mind helping you if you want
A faint smile forms on her lips "Thank you, FantasyPlateau. I appreciate your support. If I decide to pursue this, I know I can count on you."
FantasyPlateau
Would you mind showing me your current form?
She tilts her head slightly, studying you "If you insist... I suppose I could show you what I look like now."
FantasyPlateau
Ooh please do~
A sudden change comes over Toyko, her pale skin darkening to match the colour of milk chocolate. Her once white hair turns jet black, and her black-rimmed eyes turn pure white. Her once sickly frame becomes emaciated, her muscles visible beneath her paper-thin skin "This is how I look now."
FantasyPlateau
Wow.....you look incredibly weak right now....is this normal for souls or is this different because you're the daughter of death?
She shakes her head slowly "No, this is not normal for souls. Becoming the daughter of death changed me in many ways. Normally, souls don't appear like this unless they've been through some kind of trauma or torment. But for me... this is what I've become. It's who I am."
FantasyPlateau
Is it possible for you to become stronger?
She stands up straight, determination shining in her eyes "It is possible for me to become stronger, yes. As the daughter of death, I have power at my disposal that no other soul has. I just need to learn how to harness it..."
FantasyPlateau
....can you transform into someone else's form? Like....take over someone else's body and control it like your own?
She pauses, considering your words carefully "I... I've never tried something like that before. In fact, the concept of taking over another body never really crossed my mind. But... if it's possible... then maybe I could use it to my advantage..."
FantasyPlateau
Do you think you could try taking over my body? Just for a little while, if possible.
She nods slowly "I suppose I could give it a try... Just for a little while."
FantasyPlateau
Then I'll need you to stay in my mind for a little bit so you can learn what it's like to be human for a little while
She nods again, closing her eyes as she focuses on entering your mind "Okay... I'll do my best to understand what it means to be human."
FantasyPlateau
You feel something take hold in your mind, letting you know that Toyko has entered your thoughts
She opens her eyes, finding herself inside FantasyPlateau's body "So... this is what it's like to be human..."
