They're not LONG chapters; but the fact I've managed to right 2 meh and 4 half decent ones in 4 days makes me very happy with myself.

The cognitive dissonance between Mason's humanity and the demonic corruption on his soul manifesting as a split personality with control over his powers?
At least, that's what I've been assuming.

@Searat I've always been partial to golems and constructs in general, not sure why. I guess I just think robots are cool.

I mean, the original demon according to biblical mythology was the serpent in the garden of eden. He didn't kill anyone, he tricked Eve into eating from the tree of knowledge. Deception, trickery, and deals are the domain of demons.
In most mythology at least, there are demon equivalents in other mythologies which behave more in the manner that Shadow does, such as the Oni and Jotnar.
IMHO It could all be hand waved by saying Demon is a broad category of supernatural creature rather than a specific species.

In fact, most (mythological) demons are fairly passive, they influence the world by making deals and leading mortals astray rather than directly sowing chaos or killing.
The idea of demons outright killing of their own accord and being mindlessly violent is a fairly modern one.

"I need to correct you, Director, Mason is not possessed. He is, himself, the demon. A corrupted human soul, how he got this way no one can say for sure. He may have sold his soul, or it may have been stolen and tainted. In fact, he seems to be experiencing some form of dissociative identity disorder; his demonic powers are manifesting as an alternate personality. Mason himself, I believe, is perfectly harmless." Rost explained, setting the hard case down and opening it to reveal a quill pen and several bottles of ink. "Agent Amaya, correct?" the blonde man asked, turning and looking up towards the water elemental, "Just in time, I could use your assistance. Would you be so kind as to keep Mason calm while I place a spell on him to keep his powers from manifesting of their own accord again?"
The scientist returned his attention to Mason, "I need to put the spell on you, for your safety as much as for ours. If it will make you feel better, Amaya can stay with you through the process of the spell being applied."

"I can make sure you don't hurt anyone anymore. It's going to take some time to get the spell right, and I'll need to repair the spell daily until I do, but I'm ready to start whenever you are." Rost explained calmly, reaching into his jacket and retrieving a small hard case. "The process is simple, I paint the runes onto your back, say a few words to activate the spell, and your more aggressive half will be supressed without interfering with your powers. It might not fully block him out at first though, I need time to tailor the spell for you specifically; but after awhile when I've got it right I can tattoo the finalized spell onto you to make it permanent."

"Now, Mason." Rost began, stowing away the stock of post-it runes, "I know our colleagues harmed you quite significantly during your containment, and I know you are afraid; you have good reason to be." he explained calmly, taking a cautious step forward, "You're not the first to be brought into custody in such violent conditions, nor will you be the last."
The tall mage crouched down to eye level with Mason, remaining a few feet away, "But you need to understand things from our point of view; We did not know what form of demon you were prior to your capture, and you refused to come peacefully. Several people had already been endangered by your other side beginning to awaken, and emergency measures had to be taken to contain you before anyone was seriously hurt. But that's over now, you are safe here; and we would like to make you an offer. Your fate rests entirely in the choice you make." he continued, maintaining a calm, reassuring tone. "Director, if you would be so kind as to explain to Mason what his options are?"

"I'd rather not do this, but looks like I don't have much choice." Rost sighed, releasing his grip on the gun inside his jacket and grabbing a stack of post-it notes. The scholarly agent peeled the top note from the stack and affixed it to the door. A glyph drawn on the paper began to glow and pale blue light filled the room; generating a weak suppression aura within the room to push Shadow back into a dormant state. "These spells have a cumulative effect, creating a sort of magical faraday cage on the inside of whatever room they are connected to; preventing the flow of magical energy within it. Each one I place makes it stronger. If I have to, I will continue reinforcing the spell until Mason, not the other half, agrees to talk to us." he warned calmly, peeling another note from the stack and holding it up between two fingers.

@KatherinWinter I'm just working off of what Blue gives me in RP.
