He's never going to sleep again. Which is fine -- he knows from experience that he can go weeks on end with only a few hours of sleep snatched here and there between youkai attacks. It won't kill him. He doesn't even feel all that tired, not really. He more feels like he's asleep and dreaming than anything else -- everything is at a bit of a distance and his reactions are slowed, like the air's gone thicker or something. Like he's a little drunk, even though he hasn't touched a drop since his return. It's weird and unsettling, but he's sure it'll wear off. And even if it doesn't, it's not something to bother anybody with. He's been enough of a bother already.

So during the day, he sticks close to Hakkai -- he's worried the other man enough already by vanishing, so it's the least he can do to stay near (and if that means running errands or sitting quietly in the back of the classroom while school is in session, he supposes that he can manage). And at night, when he wakes after only an hour or two of sleep, he tracks down Asshole and drags the half-man out to the porch with him, for company while he smokes pack after pack and watches the moon.

Sharak tenses slightly as she listens. Remembering what Sanzang told her about the Goku and Nataku of her world... It lines up a little too well. Their Goku had been in Heaven too. He'd known Nataku.

"... The armies of Heaven aren't allowed to kill. The War Prince carries the sin of killing their enemies so that they don't have to."

When the Three Aspects had explained the system to them, Gojyo and Hakkai had pointed out how stupid it was then. Sharak thinks back and tries to remember how Goku had reacted to the talk of Nataku, but she hadn't been focusing on him. But if it really was the same as the two in Sanzang's world then...

"He and Goku were friends, once." They must have been.
