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.

( 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?

[ Why isn't he surprised that Kiyoaki's perked up all of a sudden... This guy always does the opposite of what he expects. ]

Over the poor sensitive bastards out there.

No offense.

It's all right. ( He smiles, innocently. ) Are you going to gloat over yourself, too?

[ Cheeky little... ]

Yeah, sure. Why the hell not. If you ain't gloating over your past self, you ain't growing.

( The smile fades. He swallows hard. )

Do you really think everyone has that potential?

( To grow, it means. And by his tone, it's obvious he isn't questioning Renji, but someone else. )
