[ He was joking. But now he feels bad for saying that, so he just... sort of...
No, he can't bring himself to do it. He ducks his head so Goat's hand brushes the top of his head instead and he can give himself a head pat, this is somehow more tolerable than hugs. ]
[ This is great. Kano is thoroughly embarrassed and it warms him right up. He's going to extract his head after two pats and save them both the grief. ]
...This is still my real body, isn't it, Goat? I didn't, like, leave it floating around back there?
[ It feels solid enough to him. Besides, the Daze swallows up people hole and leaves no body behind in the living world; as far as he's concerned, a lot of what he thought still holds true. ]
... No. I'm sorry. [ a beat. ] But, um, if there's anything you need to be more comfortable, Tiger might be able to provide it for you while they're here...
me about to throw a dozen more audience requests into the wind
'cause... of something we did, all the nova stuff? I still don't get how this works. Nova's, like, other people's memories scattered around that we gotta collect, but why should dead people matter? They're just one person.
Help me, Goat, I'm dumb and don't understand anything.
It's not entirely about the death, as so much as the Realm wasn't originally meant to house life, but had to because it was an emergency. The act of removing such a life--when it first happened, the Realm wasn't fully prepared to handle it.
That is why the deaths that followed afterwards don't have the same impact that Hajime's did.
So the """Realm""" dragged us here to participate and then freaked out because it couldn't handle us being here, nor could it handle us not being here anymore.

[ What a pain. ]
Same goes for you, even if you don't gotta eat or sleep or whatever. If you're in this place, doesn't that mean you're dead too?

[ Those bozos on the other side probably need Goat more than Kano does, even if he's ): about it ]
And... there's no way you can take me with you, this time?

My ability to manifest items isn't unlimited, especially after Virid spilled blood, so would one of that size suffice for now?
no subject
Yeah, one's good! But what's Virid got to do with it? Or do you mean Hajime or the rat being here?

[ but they produce a giant condom from their cloak and hand it out to kano, who will surely use it only for good and benevolent purposes. ]

And... when Soo-won killed? Or Hilda? What about Yona or...
