"Yeah, it's kinda dumb. Happens when I panic and stuff. Normally the demon part would be more melted into me sorta, but I ignored it so long that it became more of a second personality." He reached out a hand, idly poking the tips of Cyrus' claws. "When I use my powers it gets really hard for me to ignore it. I get really angry, and murderous. That kinda fun stuff."

(Sorry, back, had to eat dinner)
“I know how that feels,” Cyrus said in response, tone growing a bit more level as he watched Kaz mess with his claws. “Can you control it, when it does happen?”
(I was eating too lol) Kaz shrugged. "I can control it normally. It's kinda…Kinda like an intrusive voice that pops up in the back of my head. It tells me to kill things a lot of the time. But I can keep it away, at least if I don't change. When I change it gets a lot more difficult to control it when I change. Gives me a headache a lot of the time. But sometimes I can't control it, like a few minutes ago. Or when I use my powers for a long time."

Cyrus nodded his head in understanding. He felt the same way. He could control himself sometimes when shifted, and other times he blacked out and woke up once he was shifted back to a human appearance. It mostly varied on how great his hunger was. “Understandable, it’s no fun when you can’t control yourself.”
Kaz shook his head. "Nope. But hey, what can you do when you were born a monster?" he chuckled, walking away for a moment to grab his previously abandoned coffee
(I love how those two are having a casual conversation while everyone else id freaking out over the demon.)
(well Kaz is half demon so this is just another day on the job lol)
(lol)

(And Cyrus just usually had a “whatever” attitude about things, he knows that if it doesn’t include fire then there’s a 75% chance he will bounce back from it lmao)
“I’m with you on that one,” Cyrus said, his nails shrinking back with a crack before he picked up his own coffee, downing about half of the now cold drink.
"You want another coffee? Mine's kinda cold," Kaz said, gesturing to his half-drank chai

“I don’t think I should,” Cyrus started, setting the cup down. “I don’t want to get too hyper.” He chuckled slightly, but slowly stopped, remembering the last time he got too jumpy from things like coffee. It was the first time he had lost control when shifting, and he remembered waking up on the cold, hard floor of a cave, a man’s body layed out in front of him, mutilated, and blood soaking his body.
"Well, I guess that makes sense," Kaz chuckled
pets
Cyrus chuckled and nodded. In the silence, his mind went back to his hunger. He was starving for something, and the close proximity that Kaz was from him really did not help at all. He would go and shift, but he had a feeling that he would black out, and who knows how long his other side could have control for.
Kaz frowned a little, the small amounts of electricity coming from Cyrus tipping him off to something being wrong. "Hey, you ok?"
pets
“Fine, just hungry,” Cyrus responded, foot tapping quickly on the ground.
"Oh. Are you…People hungry?" Kaz asked, struggling for words. "Can you eat stuff that isn't people? Does that help at all?"

Cyrus felt a slight pang of offense in his chest, but he cleared his throat in an awkward manner, shifting his gaze elsewhere. “Meat satisfys it, but I’m a vegitarian.. I’ve eaten meat, but I just feel sick after,” he murmured, not wanting to talk about the ‘eating people’ aspect. As far as he knew, he’s only killed 4.
"Oh, um. Sorry. I've got a turkey sandwich in my bag, and it's got a lot of lettuce?" he offered
pets
Cyrus shook his head slowly, giving a slightly forced smile. “No, I’ll be fine. I’ll get something later,” he said.
//okay u know what
LINDSAY IM MOVING ON PRETEND THE DEMON GUY GOT CALLED AWAY
The demon looked up and seemed to sniff the air, alert. "Is that another demon I smell? Weaker than I'd expect," he mused, turning away from Chandra.
Deley wondered if they were talking about her, but then remembered they already knew she was a shifter.
Chandra flicked the light out, feeling her body begin to contort. She held back noises of pain and transformed, mirroring a usual demon. She hissed “Shoot me or something,” to the nearest kid on her side, and then blended in with the demon’s ranks.
He turned to Kaz. "Well, well. A half-demon. Tell me, what's your father's name?"
//wait
wait what if this is kaz's dad :D
Kaz turned to him, eyes wide. "Unimportant. Who are you?" he bit out (his dad's name is Vos but he's dead)
//oh
cool
"Probably an acquaintance. Possibly a relative," he said, unblinking eyes watching him.
"Well it wouldn't matter, because I killed him," Kaz hissed. He could feel that odd anger creeping into him, and this was one of the few times he would let it do what he wanted
"You killed a full-demon?" He laughed. "Lovely, lovely. You're powerful. I like that. No, I respect that. You rarely see that kind of power."
(Kaz is talking to the demon that broke the roof right?) Kaz scowled, tiny arcs of blue-purple electricity sparking along his arms. "Why do you care?"
//yep
"I take interest in powerful individuals," he said, his own dark magic flaring behind him. "We seem to have gathered quite a group here." He gestured to Deley and Reign outside, Kaz and Cyrus, Chandra in the corner. (sorry if I missed anyone)
"Well take interest somewhere else," Kaz spat. His eyes started to gain color similar to the sparks of lightning, and black began to trace his veins again. I'm the back of his mind he knew reacting this way probably wasn't the best plan, but he wanted to scare the demon off more than anything
