#19: Compassion-Kurama POV-Yusuke and Kurama, friends
Compassion used to mean weakness. Compassion was my sisters lying next to our mother's body, condemning them both to fur traders. Compassion meant telling my partner not to do something and he did so anyway, trying my hardest to ignore my instincts as he died, blood splashing over my face.
...And compassion was pressing my hand onto the cold glass of a mirror, admitting aloud that I was ready to trade my soul. Feeling sick when a stupid boy took the responsibility, certain he could not understand what I had come to be.
