[As the papers' edges charred and turned to ash, burning away little by little, Kit continued to focus on what it was they wanted and who they were asking to provide for them, but he didn't feel any differently. There was no indication that he and Vincent were any more or less protected than before, no way to confirm if attempting to cross the same lines would be permitted or if they would experience the same violent backlash.
He wasn't sure what he expected. For all that he believed in demons, ghosts, and other nonhuman entities, he was quite skeptical with regards to magic. It seemed that if bad things were going to happen, then they were going to happen regardless of the measures of protection someone tried to assemble around them. You could not reroute the storm, but you could weather it.]
A good question.
[Kit frowned at the ofuda. There was only one of it and two of them. Unless they stuck by one another, whatever "protection" it did offer would only benefit the one in possession of the talisman.
As the last of the paper finished burning, Kit's gaze settled on Vincent. He'd decided that, in the event they parted ways, he would leave the ofuda with his companion. But he would not tell him this lest the act be mistaken for pity.]
It's time to test it out. Unless you have any objections, I'll go first.
