Once again [Calypso/Akira]

"How apathetic of you. I wonder where your Inner Hollow gets it's disregard and penchant for negligence from" Calypso replied, giving him a stare. "You think Zin, Hakai, and Ulv's Hollows just spawned fully matured and happy in their respective bodies? From what Hvit told me, you don't even need to be their friend. Haereticus certainly wasn't Hayden's friend. But they worked together, they had a mutually beneficial arrangement that suited both parties. If all else fails, just kick it's ass and make it know you are the boss.

They don't know anything, other than what they were born with. And that is a whole heap of your baggage and sweet fuck all. The Hollow isn't dismissive because it wants to be obstinate or because they hate you specifically, it is because that is literally all there is to it.

You are predisposed to ignoring a lot of stuff from what I have seen about you, but if you ignore this for too long then you are going to lose your body and be a back-seat driver while you watch it rampage around and then get killed"

"I'm glad you have some motivation, that way" Calypso would say, taking a seat again and exhaling a sigh. "It's dangerous to ignore it. Hvit told me about this city in America that got wiped off the map by a Vizard who ignored his Inner Hollow and then lost control over it. Tens of thousands of innocent civilians lost their lives, tens of thousands more lost their homes. Even if you survive such a thing, it isn't what you want on your conscience going forward. A man doesn't need to be physically broken, to be a husk"

She'd shift some to look over the water, and hold her hands over it. The lakebed rippled gently at her command, the extent of her control over Ao Kuang's inheritance right now. But it was nice, all the same.
