listen to your heart 😌

"Can You Handle Your Emotions?"
Emotions are... eh. We all have them, whether we want to or not. Some people have control over their emotions, and some people let their emotions control them. Where does your character fall on this spectrum? More importantly, what's their relationship with their emotions like? Do they bury everything deep, deep down inside, or are they the first one to cry over a sappy movie? Do they even know how they feel about what's going on inside? Pretty meta stuff.
  • No blank top-levels.
  • Instead, characters are to respond to the proposed question: can you handle your emotions? / are you in touch with your feelings?
  • Get deep. Look within. Hear, think feel... or don't.

[ Renji isn't the type to pry, so he lets the non-answer slide with nothing more than a dubious look.

Besides, the question serves as a tactical distraction. What would he even get out of getting a firmer handle on his own pesky feelings, anyway? Other than like. Being a better person and living a more peaceful life and all that crap.

He has to really think about it. ]

( And like that's the most natural thing to want out of anything - which, for Kiyoaki, it is - he raises both eyebrows in interest. There's no irony there, no sarcasm, just genuine intrigue. )

Over whom?
