I thought that too. After Nanamin and Kugisaki, I thought...
[ He frowns, fingers playing idly with the chain. ]
I was a murderer. I was just like Mahito, with a role to just kill curses, over and over again. To keep fighting until there were none left, and I would have, too. I wanted to remove them all and not let there be any others, to protect the people I love more than anything. I think if I didn't have Todo in Shibuya, I would have given up.
[ He frowns as he looks over at Geto, his head tilted. ]
I'm not here to forgive you, whatever you did. I wasn't even a sorcerer then, so that's not my right.
I'm not asking for it. Forgiveness is for other people, and I don't believe the things that I did were unjustifiable. Even given a second chance, I'd probably go the same way.
( He shrugs his shoulders, a rare idleness for the conversation. )
But no one else has to. It's my weight. I wouldn't want it for anyone else. And while we're more alike than either of us would like, I think, I have hope for you.
[ Yuji doesn't think Geto would do the same thing now, but that's because he has people looking out for him. He himself would intervene and do his best to help him, no matter what. ]

Ah... I have my own weights, too, though.

( Gently, carefully. )
You're here, aren't you? That's better than not, Yuji-kun. That's the start of things.
no subject
[ He's sure some people would say otherwise. That it would be better if he was gone. ]
Thanks.

Do you want to get ice cream? We won't tell anyone. Well, we can tell Satoru after, just so he knows we went without him.
( True villainy. )
I've heard they're doing taro now.

[ As if the last few weeks of literal torture didn't rip what little fat he had from his bones. ]
I'll get sensei a takeaway box.

( A rude noise. )
The point was to deprive him.

He has so many of you wrapped around his fingers, tch.
( Also he bit Geto too hard last night, so. He wants to be petty. (*  ̄︿ ̄) )
no subject
If it helps, you're wrapped around my finger, Geto-san, so it evens out.
[ :D ]

Oh, I suppose you're right.

Geto-san, I was kind of joking…

Mm, this is why I keep buying you ice-cream. It's what should be done.
