You didn't want to garner loyalty through domination, something in the past you wouldn't have any qualms about being an intimidator. That supernatural charisma and eloquence you carried were worth far more than just an overwhelming fearful aura that forces obedience through submission. No, the unique relationship you saw with Satsuki Kiryuin goes beyond such limiting chains. Camaraderie, parental guidance, perhaps love interest, there were many different aspects that it could fall under. So much that it was hard to put into words.
At the same time, you could vividly describe it as something far more than simple friendship. That's why you were so vehemently pissed at the signs hovering over Satsuki as you pushed her to her mental breaking point. The physical manifestation of Heavenly Subjugation known as Stripped of the will to fight was materializing. To lose the will to fight and be stripped of all strength as well as any resources was an all-encompassing power. Befitting your role as arbiter far more so than the mediator position between humanity and life-fibers you also carry. In normal instances, you would welcome it, but right now it only pissed you off immensely.
Grabbing Satsuki by the collar after ruthlessly punching her firmly into the ground, creating a massive crater in the process, you vehemently glare at Satsuki with an abhorred expression.
"Get up. Get the fuck back up this instance, do you hear me!" You bellow, pulling Satsuki off the ground as her feet dangled pathetically off the ground. Her blank expression lazily glazed over her surroundings as she was on the verge of passing out.
"I will not tolerate such a shameful display Satsuki Kiryuin! How in the hell can you expect to stop your mother if you can't even face me as an equal? I never peg someone as strong as you to just throw in the towel and give up like this! Humanity is nothing without life-fibers, just as we are nearly nothing without humanity. Are you going to continue denying this aspect of yourself, or are you going to wake up and start embracing it as well as accept what you are?" You continued, berating and accosting in an attempt to stir a fire deep in her belly. Seeing her like this made you angry to no end, far more so than when you were betrayed and desecrated by Ragyo. And at this moment it dawns upon you exactly why.
