[Hm, well, far be it from him to look a gift horse in the mouth. Most people tended to get rather uncomfortable when he demonstrated qualities that were rather inhuman, despite being forewarned about his actual species. Man, this was why he liked Major Hyou-Kyou, weird fetishes aside. He just took everything in stride.
He set the knife down, and, before Hyoubu could change his mind, gave his hand a little flick. In an instant, his fingers were claws, as if they had always been as such, the surface a deep black and smooth right up to the knuckles. He flexed his claws, the digits bending as easily as normal fingers despite the fact that they lacked any proper joints (demons never obeyed the laws of biology or physics), and then wriggled them, testing to see if he did the minor shapeshifting well enough]
There we go. [He picked up the remaining pieces of onion with his clawed hand - and clenched. Thin slivers of onion dropped onto the chopping board, the claws having sliced through as easily as a hot knife through butter] Much easier.
