It's...

[ It'd be Wrong. On one hand, there's the weird cultural aspect of being the Witness to others dying, both family and friends, sometimes even being the one who has to kill them yourselves. On the other, 'you were seeing each other'. Not even. It feels like an understatement of the worst kind. He can't name anything he hasn't given up for Them, that wouldn't be given up still, but to even try putting it into words is impossible. Devotion doesn't scratch the surface.

The narrative is laughing about Shinjiro samedogging so hard he has to itch at his neck, especially considering all that happens on Will's end is taking off a necklace usually hidden. Let Shinjiro get mad about it. It's my job. He does it so no one else has to. It's the same weird presence of trying to stay calm, like how people with anger management problems count from one to ten then back down, and in that time either calm down or go entirely off the rails. It's the same exercise in practice. Jon Rognvaldsson. Katharina Henot. Johannes Junius. It's grounding. By the time the words answer, even the despair is as nothing. ]


It's an arm, Aragaki. Cleaned up worse than that. There still a ring on it?
