...yeah. I know. I figured that out when you tried to give my token back when you figured out what it did.
A lot of you here are weird like that.
[ But it's said with a bit of lightness, something there that definitely wasn't when they first met that night in the cul-de-sac. Weird (fond), maybe. Even the people here he doesn't (or didn't) get along with—they still looked at him and saw a person. Maybe because they didn't know the truth of him or his token, but even so... ]
But if she's at the point where she's saying that's her only purpose and that she doesn't want anything... it'll take a lot to pull her out of that.
[ Kaios doesn't have emotions—it's a fact, considering everything he is. But there's something about this moment, about Ludger's comment about being stuck with "us weirdos," about Cantarella's comment he can't forget about his being "part of the group" that... huh. Maybe it's having his token near him; maybe his token is pulling the same sort of bullshit it was during the trial to find Amaya's killer, but Kaios finds he doesn't mind this nearly as much as the pulses of irritation. This "feeling," if it could be called that... it's a kind of nice one.
And Ludger may catch the corner of his mouth quirking up, not quite a smile but not not one, either. ]
I can think of worse things.
[ But anyway, back to Magi. ]
Real names have power. If we knew hers, there's a possibility we'd be able to do something with it. ...we're probably better off working on the current plans, though.

Is Magi her real name?
no subject
Yeah, and you're stuck with us weirdos.
[ :') it's fine. the subject change makes the grin drop, his expression turning thoughtful. ]
As far as I know, yeah. I guess there's Wish Giver, but that seems more like a title than her name... And, well. She does want to feed on souls.
[ is that a promising sign? it doesn't feel like a promising sign to him. ]
