Your luck is kinda nuts Kokichi. 18! These people are so depressed they don't even care that he steals their gems. Niel joins him in speedrunning enough games to get all of them not in the green, but at least neutral. Considering some of their debts were nearly maxed, this is some wizardry. It's only a handful of people, but Kokichi has effectively been a superhero for these people. While he's out of rolls, if anyone needs to get any information out of some of the indebted, having Kokichi present will be make them more likely to - haha - tell the truth.
During this whole adventure, Niel REALLY wants to be an ink guy! That's so cool!!! He wants to be blue. Blue is the COOLEST color! Next to purple, because Kokichi is super cool. The coolest! It's plain to see between the playing with his questions and the helping everyone that Niel is endlessly fond of him. Even so, when he asks the question, the smile stays in place before fading slightly. He doesn't want to answer. He knows what'll happen. But the reassurance he won't tell anyone (with another 18, jfc) he caves.
He doesn't want to go home. Mom's not there anymore, and he Dad gets mad when he's around. And-and no one cares if he stays here! The workers buy him food and a place to sleep, so it's fine.
