You do. You're trying to protect him, but also teach him the things he needs to know.

[stillnot]

Heh. [ a very weak laugh... ]

That's the hard part. There's a lot of stuff he shouldn't have to know. [ but he does need to. ]

[exercisms]

It sounds like it.

[. . .]

It's nothing like that, but. I've wanted to be able to protect my brother from that. From what I can turn into.

But I haven't been able to do a good job.

[stillnot]

From what you can turn into?

[exercisms]

There's something that comes out sometimes. Not my power - something else that uses my power. Once, it hurt Ritsu.

[stillnot]

That must be scary. Not being in control, sometimes.

[exercisms]

[stillnot]

So what do you do about it? To stop it from happening or - once it's happened?
