Cheng turned his head to look back at Koro, his face in a concerned frown. How much energy had he used? When had he last eaten--for a demon, that is? "Okay. Let's get you to your place, alright? You look like a water abyss tried to drown you at least a dozen times."

During the walk, he kept close, his mind awhirl in trying to figure out how to help his friend. His demon friend. Didn't stuff like this happen to Wuxian? Why was it happening to him? And when did he decide it wasn't all that big a deal, either? Nippon, or whatever they liked to call this place...it had changed him. Beyond the physical attributes. Cheng pushed that thought aside to deal with later as that wasn't as important as taking care of Koro. Offering a comforting smile, he helped the other trudge back to his own place. He'd have a plan of action by then, wouldn't he?
