[Surprisingly, the humans came out of that okay! Relatively speaking. But Yuuri can definitely be forgiven for thinking the worst.]

Of course.... He's why I exist...

[At least, that's how Chikusa is taking it.]

[latebloomingeros]

It's because you're grateful, then?

[Yuuri picks at his food. If he's going to think about it that way, that's an awfully big thing to owe someone for. One that can never really be repayed. It's a new way of approaching the idea, for Yuuri, and a more appealing one in certain ways, but he's not at all sure about the idea of not having any control over who he takes on a debt that substantial with.]

I'm still not sure I'd be much good for things like picking fights with yakuza and so on, but I can at least see trying, in that case.

[Even if he thinks it's more than a little likely that he'd just start stammering apologies or cry or do something else embarrassing.]

[kokuyoyo]

...I guess that's one way to put it....

[But it feels like more than that. As if he needs to have someone to follow, to protect, whose goals are his own. Chikusa, once he had learned the purpose of a shinki, had always thought that perhaps he was meant to be something like this. It made perfect sense, felt so fitting, especially in comparison to the emptiness and lost feeling that had enveloped him before Axel had claimed him.]

[There hadn't been any reason to keep going, then.]

[Yuri's commentary has him shrug a little.]

There are other prayers spoken to the gods as well... It just depends on who it is. That one was to protect the hearth, so... it was sent to my god.

[latebloomingeros]

Different gods hear different prayers, then?

[That makes sense, he guesses. Hopefully his god will be a relatively peaceful sort?]

[kokuyoyo]

I imagine so. You wouldn’t pray to Hestia for war.

[....Probably. Although, now that he thinks about it, one could certainly word it in a way…]
