Ink has been trying to "help" Dust. I honestly think he's in too deep to be saved, but hey, keeps him busy. It's a bit entertaining to find out what colors mean what fake emotions. It helps me memorize and study how people act, so it's an intriguing thing to watch. Apparently, they stopped doing it, I missed what happened because Geno insisted on bringing me back.

They let off on the training a while ago, they trust that I've somehow learned from their attempt at torture, but I still can't harm my host. So off I was, getting more souls to consume. I go on these expeditions once, or maybe even twice a day, and I recently, I feel like someone has been following me. I always feel as though eyes are following me, and my suspicions were confirmed when I saw the small glimpse of someone or something that darted back into the trees. I've caught a couple of glimpses of whatever it is, always disappearing out of my sight before I can get a good look at them.

I didn't have any major suspects, yet. So I'll just have to leave that problem there until further notice.

I think I may be able to manipulate Ink, I just need to push it just a little bit more. I've been helping him out with Error, distracting him, things like that. Despite me not taking up his offer on feeling, I feel like I've built up a good enough friendship to strike soon. I may have to do it somewhere else, no witnesses, Ink has too many connections with powerful monsters. I can't use his body for anything though, with his lack of a soul and all, but he may be useful for something else.

Maybe a few days after the stalking scenario entered my head, I apparently found their "stash" and I think I have a few targets. judging by what they've figured out, they can't go on living with my secrets.
