seven | never wanted to grow up

Requesting advice... 

About teeth.  [He may be sounding a bit worried.]

Specifically, how do I... reattach one? 


[Oh, the horrors of dental maturation. Slugger doesn't understand and suspects this is some unnatural and cruel act of nature. 

ALSO, if you are one Edward Nigma, there may be something (not a tooth) hidden beneath your pillow. That something would happen to be a sheep's liver stolen from the local butcher shop. Consider it a "welcoming gift" from your new "son". Note that he has been courteous enough to wait only two days before stuffing it under there instead of the intended seven because he just couldn't contain his excitement.]

Assume filtering has been in effect. I forgot.

Outside of here my existence was transient.

I was never human.

A few of my companions were never human either.

A tsukumogami?

No.

Were any of your companions bakemono?

My companions are Wanyūdō, Hone Onna, a tsukumogami named Ren and a Yōkai called Yamawaro.

[And Kukuri but she's not really an assistant and they never say what she is.]

Do you need them?

Need?

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

Yes. Do you think companions are necessary?

Not for everyone.

I can do my duties without them. However they make it much easier and I prefer that they be there.
