[IT WAS TOTALLY A PROMISE I MADE THAT I NEED TO KEEP IN ORDER TO MOVE ON TO A NEW PROMISE so... OK picking one of the cleared-out, sideways rooms here that's kept for people who need to wait on this side for the portal to open.]
[Nods, stepping back so Darc has space and then breathing for a moment, picturing the change, imagining that feeling of being pulled down into the dark and reminding himself it's not something he can't face...]
[And stopping short of actually hitting him. The air fills with a hissing burbling sound...? Flicks tail and is otherwise still for a moment before leaning forward again, air darkening around them.]
[Well, it's a little hard to tell if he understands, but he seems pleased... Butts nose up under Darc's chin, jaw opening... This form doesn't really have teeth by default but there's the contemplative press of that sharp edge of his mouth.]

become
one?
[...stops, the minute pressure he was putting into the bite easing up without cutting, then he releases Darc completely. Tilts his head, thinking or listening.]
[every inch of Darc's instincts told him to respond, attack, but he refuses to let himself, just once, just this once. When he actually releases him - when he's actually not betrayed in this moment yet - something heady and giddy encourages him. He stands straighter.]
Become one... if that's what you require, you will have my loyalty and power as well. I will always fight at your side!
Playfully wrenches one of Darc's shoulder horns instead of biting again, before the room seems to get engulfed in darkness, or maybe just Darc is--there's the feeling of shadowy liquid surging up around him--]

Re: [Thusia] at some point
A-anyway, I think I've got it! I just wanna make sure there aren't lots of people around in case I'm wrong...

Re: [Thusia] at some point
Hi again...!
S-so.. I guess I've got the change part down...! And I sort of have.. impressions of things that happened... um, sorry if I did anything weird...
Re: [Thusia] at some point
Well done.
Re: [Thusia] at some point
So, if it's like this... Probably I can still work on getting more in sync, but I won't be a burden if you want me around...
