Joscelin's "voice" turns quiet, thoughtful.

I don't plan on dying just yet. He has friends now. People who care about him. It all feels very foreign to him, to be cared about. Especially when...

Are you going to be that kind of god for me, Mistress? It's terrifying, the idea of being so connected to someone. He doesn't know how to respond to it. Even now, with Ayumu bringing him food and then naming him so that she can keep his powers fed, he wonders when the other shoe will drop. It has to be transactional. People are only kind to other people when they expect to get something out of it in the end.

But still, there's a small part of him that hopes he's wrong. Because he's lonely.

Let's cut the sentimentality and find another ayakashi. I want dessert.
