You're very strange.
So okay, I'm a youkai. Nice to meet you.

[stresspoint]

You're a youkai and you can say I'm strange?
That's hypocritical.

[catmemes]

Didn't say I'm not.
You can ask, you know.

[stresspoint]

I know you aren't a curse.
If there's anything else you want me to know, you'll tell me.

I don't need to worry beyond that.

[catmemes]

Fair enough.
But you see why you don't need to worry about me either.

[stresspoint]

Maybe.
But youkai can be exorcised too, can't they?

[catmemes]

There aren't many people around who can anymore. Even that's only temporary.

[stresspoint]

For all youkai or just you?

[catmemes]

You can make a youkai stop possessing something or make it peaceful but you can't really get rid of them completely that way.

[stresspoint]

So you can't die?

[catmemes]

Should I be worried that you want to know how to get rid of me?

[stresspoint]

I just want to know how it works. Should I be worried about you?

[catmemes]

Youkai can stop existing but they can't really 'die'.

[stresspoint]

What's the difference?

[catmemes]

You just...stop. You don't go to Yomi or get reincarnated or anything, you're just gone.

[stresspoint]

I'm not sure that isn't the same as humans.

[catmemes]

Maybe for some. I'm not an expert.
King Yama is definitely real though.

[stresspoint]

Definitely?
So you've seen the afterlife? I thought you just said you don't reincarnate.

[catmemes]

I haven't been there personally but I know people who have.

[stresspoint]

You know people that remember being incarnated?

How do you know they aren't lying?

[catmemes]

Oh they didn't die. Just went there and came back.

[stresspoint]

Can you actually confirm that?

[ What kind of crazy story is this? ]

[catmemes]

I mean I don't see why he'd lie about it.

[ About that part, at least. ]

Is it really so hard to believe? I've met other kami.

[stresspoint]

I don't know. I guess I've never thought that much about kami.

[catmemes]

No I guess people don't really anymore.
I just thought that with what you do, you'd run into spirits more.

[stresspoint]

Anything I've run into was just a type of cursed spirit.
I've never seen other spirits like you.

[catmemes]

Well maybe you have and you didn't know it
But I don't know much about curses.
