[ all of this is A Lot. but starting from the first thing he says, he gets that. There will never be a time when Buzen is perceived as fully human, because on some level he isn't. The difference is maybe that he started as a sword, and became more human as time wore on.

but you know he gets his hand held (its like. weirdly much drier than normal.) and told that's worthy of love and immediately does have to pull his hand back so he can scrub at his face. frogmotions. i don't know if frogs can cry, but you know. maybe. ]
