Fuck it. He could wash the bottle off once he was de-blighted. Rather than just dumping the water on his hands Gojyo plugged the sink and poured half the bottle into the basin, immersing both hands fully and roughly scrubbing at the blight until it dissolved away.
"How do I stop it?" He took extra care, checking his nail beds and the spaces between his fingers, making sure that every last trace of purple was gone from his hands. "I'm gonna feel bad about shit, that's just how us humans work--" Robots might not experience blight, but after that conversation with the tree-throwing dude, he'd checked. He was 100% not made of metal. "--so how the hell do I make it so I'm not hurting Ekko when that happens?"
Hands clear, he wiped off the bottle, then examined his face and throat closely in the mirror, just in case he'd touched himself there. There was no sign of blight, thank god... but the face in the mirror was just as unfamiliar as it had been that first day. He ran damp fingers under one eyelid, pulling it down slightly to get a better look at the blood-red pupil there.
Half-youkai bastards have red hair and eyes, he knew (although he had no idea how he knew that). But if he weren't fully human he'd know it. Wouldn't he? "I don't want to hurt anybody."
