[Pardon Rashid while he's enjoying the music a little -too- much. And it seems he's found some new threads while he's at it.]

This is much better than a few days ago. I feel like a million bucks!

[And speaking of bucks, there's a large oryx behind him. He sort of nudges Rashid and demands pets.]

Oh, and don't mind my new buddy here. He's really cool. Just showed up after this weird sound and wanted attention. This is normal around here, right?

[Please say yes.]

[Rin fantasizes about traveling the world and saving people for a moment. Oh, how he would be adored. It'd be so cool!]

Man, that's so neat! I'm jealous!

Yea, I guess it's kind of like the movies? But, creepy possession doesn't happen a lot. They kind of walk around and show up wherever and we go to help people and stop the demons from destroying everything.

[Of course, one of the first ones he saw was a possession. And there's Satan. But that seems to be reserved for more powerful demons.]

[It is a pretty sweet life, at least in Rashid's mind. He got to learn from the great Dhalsim and fight the legendary Ryu. Both of them kicked his ass, but still!]

That sounds like it would be a pain after a while. I bet they like to show up more than once in a year or so, right?

[Rin looks thoughtful for a moment.]

Uhh... It's pretty regular actually.

[Probably because Rin's a demon magnet, but he's not going to say that here.]

Sometimes several times a week. They're all pretty easy to deal with, though.

[Rin grins at the last part. Most demons he faces are a breeze. Most.]

[turbulentwind]

A world with demons everywhere? That's got to suck, even if they are easy to handle.

[He imagines having to chase a demon around the first thing in the morning.]

[heartintheflames]

I like it. Being able to save people is really cool! And field experience is way easier than studying!

[Rin scrunches his face in disapproval]

Reading passages sucks way more... Yukio always says, "It's so important."

[He quotes Yukio mockingly.]

But he just doesn't get it. I learn way better hands on!

[turbulentwind]

I can't argue with that. I've learned a lot more going hand-to-hand with other fighters as opposed to reading about them online.

Sure, reading about getting better is important, but how can you improve unless you put it to use?

[Even if it is about fighting demons.]

[heartintheflames]

Right? It's the only way to learn!

[Rin would rather not read at all, unless it's a manga.]

So, you train alot, huh? That's pretty cool! How many fights have you won?

[turbulentwind]

I've won a couple here and there. Not too shabby for a new guy, I think.

[Less than he wants to admit, but being a hero isn't about winning, right? It's about training and getting better!]
