... I didn't think they were real. The good things.
[That's very nearly a whisper, halfway to himself.
It's as faint as the words, but there's confusion there, and a little awe, and something a little lonely, too. He scrubs a hand across his face and turns to face the wall instead.]
That's as far as I got, though. Finding a Fragment and living there for a while... I don't want to go back to the Foundation, and I don't want to go home, so...

It's a lot harder to build things than it is to destroy them, huh?
[He shifts briefly, because he heard that tone -- it crinkles the jacket he's wearing in one big rustle and then he settles again, turned halfway. One bright red eye glances at her for a moment.]
I don't know yet.
[He says that, but judging by earlier... he's already made that decision for himself.
Maybe he just doesn't want to acknowledge it twice in the same conversation. He's dumb like that.]
I still wouldn't mind seeing your place, I think. If most of the ones on your side are like you.
Well, they don't have to be exactly like you. Just a little bit is enough.
[The important parts, he means.
He looks back over at the wall at being called a friend, but at least he doesn't try to contest it. Maybe he's just sort of. Absorbing it. People have called him that here a few times now.
Also, he'd totally want fisticuffs with Godzilla so maybe that's for the best.]

[ There's a tinge of sadness in those words, too, though. ]
I'd invite you to come see my world if you wanted, but...
[ It's already been established that it was not great. ]
Well. Maybe it will turn out better next time.

I can't say they're all much like me... Youkai are very diverse. I'm sure they'd happily accept anyone I called a friend, though.
[ Not necessarily the beasts, but you can only ask so much from Godzilla. ]
