"Tcheh. Did you think humans were the only ones pure enough that becoming a beast would be sad irony for them? The truth is, humans are the most depraved race of all. The transformation, for them, is only poetic justice.

But a beast who understands his beasthood from the beginning is a stronger soul than any mortal man! En garde, children of this fallen world!"

...or that's what he would say if he had cheesy, Atma Weapon-ish pre-battle text. And then he'd ink and run.

BUT YES this is me in behemoff form by the amazing  spikievstheworld! I love this piece so much that I'm officially making it the canon interpretation of behemoth!Vikja, aka Chouzen-Vikja because this year's theme was anime and I wanted a cheesy Japanese appellation. (Chouzen roughly meaning "detached, aloof" or "transcendent", and also being a sorta-homophone for "chosen" ha ha I kill me.)

Also beasts that turn into even more beastly beasts are a thing I enjoy.
