[Here's the clown in the kitchen! Kitchen clown! Still dressed in that terrible sweatshirt, though their hat has been placed somewhere on the counter.]
[When Sheila enters, they look up from where they're pouring themselves a cup of tea.]
Oh. No, thank you. [A LITTLE AWKWARDLY... Unsure what to do with this non-murder clown.] ... Okay, I need to ask. Do you have all of the other guy's memories?
Yes, I do. I was awake the whole time, you know. [Basically, they had Clown View 24/7 HBO Max here. Horrible.] If you are concerned regarding your secret...please don't be. I can't and won't judge, anyways.
[And they stop, but their expression grows a little hard.]
Anyways, like I said. I will not judge you whatsoever. [And a sigh.] Um. I'm...the real Ashiya Douman. Its a pleasure to meet you face to face, Sheila.
[And they actually bow their head! What a polite clown.]
That hunger...I understand it, too. But unlike that curse that was controlling me, I don't want to take nothing but delight in it. I know...you're the same way. Sometimes things happen outside of ourselves that we have no control over.
[Like being possessed by a cannibal clown version of yourself.]
[Douman absolutely wins the sad cannibal backstory competition, tbh. Possession is worse than eating cursed clams and dying.]
Oh... [Sympathetically. She pats their arm with her other hand.] Well, let's look at the bright side. You're not possessed anymore, and you can eat regular food. No more man shaped snacks for you, right...?

week 6 thursday
[When Sheila enters, they look up from where they're pouring themselves a cup of tea.]
Ah, hello. Do you want some?

no subject
[More tea for them! Sip.]
[And...oh, right.]
Yes, I do. I was awake the whole time, you know. [Basically, they had Clown View 24/7 HBO Max here. Horrible.] If you are concerned regarding your secret...please don't be. I can't and won't judge, anyways.
no subject
[More tea for them, indeed. This is so awkward for her.]
So... Want to start over now that you're possessed? Or we could just not talk. Whichever you prefer.
no subject
[And they stop, but their expression grows a little hard.]
Anyways, like I said. I will not judge you whatsoever. [And a sigh.] Um. I'm...the real Ashiya Douman. Its a pleasure to meet you face to face, Sheila.
[And they actually bow their head! What a polite clown.]
no subject
Okay... Well, it's nice to meet you, too! [She does not bow, but she does wave a little.] Tell me about yourself. What do you like?
no subject
Um. I like...well, I like quiet places. And my work as an onmyouji, of course. Reading, I suppose.
[They're just....kind of a regular dude?]
no subject
[They are such a regular dude. Sheila is shook.]
That's nice...? You know, you should visit the shrine on Lust's floor. I bet that's more your speed.
no subject
Oh, yes! I should. I saw it on the screens. It looked nice.
no subject
Then grab your tea to go. We can visit it right now!
no subject
[What? GOING? HELLO? But they do grab their cup, looking to Sheila expectantly.]
Alright, lead the way?
no subject
no subject
Is it far from here?
no subject
no subject
[That's nice. As they walk along, Douman hums.]
You know...I'm glad you weren't found out for your secret, Sheila.
no subject
[She looks at them curiously while leading the way to the elevator.]
That's sweet. Though, I thought you would be more grossed out by it...?
[Were they an unwilling participant in vore? It is a mystery.]
no subject
[They look very self-conscious, all of a sudden.]
That hunger...I understand it, too. But unlike that curse that was controlling me, I don't want to take nothing but delight in it. I know...you're the same way. Sometimes things happen outside of ourselves that we have no control over.

Oh... [Sympathetically. She pats their arm with her other hand.] Well, let's look at the bright side. You're not possessed anymore, and you can eat regular food. No more man shaped snacks for you, right...?
no subject
Well, I-I made a mistake after I died, but it...it won't happen again...
no subject
Oh, shit. Did you eat someone in the city?
no subject
N-no, not...someone. Just...a part of someone...
no subject
Oh my god, don't cry! [THE WORST POSSIBLE OUTCOME.] Hey, hey— It's okay. Their body parts grew back, right? No harm done!
no subject
[ITS THE WORST, SHEILA]
Ahh, but...then again, it was Mahito, so...
[They frown. They clearly Do Not Like Mahito.]
no subject
[Immediately changing her tone like, no. Douman did a very good thing.]
I would have eaten him, too. He's a piece of shit who preys on teenagers and totally deserves it.
no subject
[MOM?? MOM YOU SUPPORT CURSE CANNIBALISM?? Sorry, Douman is just going to gape for a moment.]
Uh. I mean. Yes, that's correct, but...
[A pause.]
He goaded me into doing it.
