Ah. You know, I'll never understand those who thinks its wise to show off a superior being as a show pony is a good idea. I don't think I've ever heard a story where it didn't end in either their eventual death.
[A pause.] Right. Sorry. Why was the initial waking period so much longer?
[He nods.] I assume there are also more like the...partial bat form? [Whatever she may call it.] There are 72 great transformations that few can hope to achieve, where everything can be altered, but bestial demons can usually manage at least a few of those. Though smaller alterations are more common.
For example, I've never managed a full dramatic transformation, but... [He gesture to himself currently with the bull features.] I could look fully human and I could change my age to an extent. And I can express the full range of my gender, but its hard to force it the way I'm not feeling that day.
And to be fair, those who can get into the mind and shadows are quite dangerous. The Lady Bone Demon practically lived to invade your head, and one of the few beings I've ever seen go effectively toe to toe with Sun Wukong properly is the shadow monkey.
I never choose to betray someone. [JUST. HAVE EXTREMELY COMPLICATED FEELINGS ABOUT PEOPLE. And hate himself for it.] The Demon Bull Family will only ever break an alliance with a declaration, not with a knife.
[Erk.]
[He just]
[Puts a lot of rice in his mouth. Give himself a moment.]
....I haven't cooked for many immortals outside of family?
