( As someone who has already killed someone here who asked for him to, as someone who killed a second just to try and feel something— Esikko wonders how Hiyori would feel knowing the potentials he'd just set up. It's not as if he's some ruthless murderer, some psychopath who kills for no reason, right? There's always a reason. It's just that no one understands.

But someone who asks to be hurt, who feels at risk for asking to be killed, huh...

He hums, reaching out with his hand up as if to invite Leo to take it. If he does, he'll find his hand is unnaturally cold in temperature, but Esikko just means to lead them to somewhere they can sit. )

There aren't many people who care about me, so I'm not sure it's the same. I'm someone who might desperately try to create worry in those around me, and grow more desperate when I don't get it.

It's like the opposite side of a coin.

Where is your suit mark, by the way? Can you show me?
