The hand remains outstretched for a moment longer, just in case he changed his mind, before it drops gently down at his side. Kit seemed to have a habit of understating his problems in order to be less of a burden, but this time she was inclined to believe that he really was at a manageable pain level. If her intuition proved false she could always sneak a heal in later.

His words bring a soft smile to Reimi's face, but the expression doesn't last for long once the memory unpauses itself. There's no mistaking the reaction that the young Kurama's assailant evokes in his present day self, and while she makes no comment on it she certainly files it away for later.

Clearly this surly little demon had appeared in her companion's memories before. What relationship did they share in their last life, she wondered? And was this Hiei sleeping somewhere in Eddan right now?

Unfortunately she'd never know, because I play both of them.

There's a certain irony in many hands appearing again, even in the life of a completely unrelated person, and she can't help but stare at Yatsude with a particular hardness. The demons of this world really did resemble their personas in many ways. It was intriguing to contemplate the possibility of there being a connection.

By the time that Orias' counterpart was defeated Reimi found herself just as willing as Kit apparently was to leave this dreamworld. There was something immensely dissatisfying, almost wrong feeling, about Maya's fate. Who was Kurama to make such decisions for her? It chafed at her more than she'd expected it to.

None of these thoughts find their way onto her face when she turns to acknowledge her companion's request with a small nod. "Sure, whatever you want. But we should probably walk back a little first, just in case the shadows are still active."
