Because she's kitsune. Because he saw her, and she is kitsune. Don't you know what people used to do to those who are kitsune? Or did Satomi not bother to tell you?

If you're trying to say that they killed them, then they were idiots.

You beat and you burn the host to force the fox to flee.

So why shouldn't she try to run?

He had no reason to harm her though.

How is she to know that?

As she was fleeing, her husband cried out: "You may be a fox, but I love you still, my heart will always be yours. I still want you to stay with me forever and ever."

Did she go back to him?

Yes. They lived happily ever after.

That's different.

Yes, yes. We all die.

Once upon a time, there was a five hundred year old fox. He was very faithful to Inari, even though he had no mate and no children to call his own yet. He had many tails, but he was not very prosperous and despite being so devout and so faithful he was not very happy.

Why wasn't he happy?

He began to notice, this fox, that Inari benefited very well from the service of the kitsune but only a few select kitsune benefited in return. He did not think that this was right, and so this young fox decided to strike out on his own. He did not find a mate, for she had not yet been born, but he gathered family. Skulk. A child.

Is that what you consider Allison and the others?

[He's not including himself in that.]

That's not where we are in the story, Derek.

The other kitsune did not appreciate this point of view, and so he was dragged back to Inari and to the temple. He was stripped of all of his tails, of his body, of his form. He was thrown to the void, subject to the whims and wishes of anyone who might summon him. Trapped in the darkness. In nothing but nothing, feeling nothing but crushing darkness and the loneliness of absolute nothingness. The pain of having everything that was him stripped away. Screaming to be let out, begging for it. He'd do anything.

The Inari were ignorant.

Inari is one goddess.

He was summoned, he took a host. He did what he promised to do. He did what they asked him to do in the way that his people can, in chaos and pain and in strife. And he went back. Until she summoned him. The kitsune. Summoned him to bring death to those who wronged her and her own. And then changed her mind. As if that's something you can do.

I don't rightly give a damn who Inari was or is. She's fucking ignorant.

[He's not defending you, Thomas, but he doesn't like what Inari did either.]

It doesn't matter if you give a damn about her, she doesn't have anything to do with werewolves.

...maybe Satomi's pack. I don't know about that.

No, she doesn't. Are we done here, fox?

Yes. Whatever. Fine.
