"Actually, I was wrong. There are shinki who don't feel bad about stuff," he offers, zipping the bag closed and holding it out to her. It's all candy, and it's all for her. "They don't feel guilty, or sad, or happy or angry or anything. They're just empty."
If he did just catch her in a lie and she does have shinki... if she really did name all those soulless a couple weeks back... then did she even know what she was doing? He doesn't want to believe that she's been lying all along -- it has to be that she just didn't understand what was happening. "Folks in heaven call them 'soulless'."
