[It's surprising, really and truly, to hear Josuke talk this way about killing. And he could have sworn the boy was going to ask him about how he felt when he killed. Here? Or in Morioh?
Being understood when it comes to what he does and why he needs to do it is not really something he's ever needed in his life but he'd be quite pleased to have it. That's probably the one nice thing about Ryslig. They're all killers and no one has any right to judge anyone else for it. There's no need to hide or be ashamed for what you have to do. Hell, there are some people here that are really into killing.
He's not even sure what to say for a moment. Confirming that he feels the same is probably not going to make Josuke feel better. But... the solidarity that they all feel this way and it's in their natures now to be this way might mean something. Right?
He needs to get out of this apartment. It's been a whirlwind of all sorts of things.]
You described it accurately enough. A radio static... and the relief when that noise finally stops. The clarity of it all... If you stop doing what you're doing that sound will come back. It always comes back. So you have to keep at it. And you either learn to accept yourself for the things you have to do to make it stop. Or... suffer, I suppose.
Despite what I said, during our first encounter here in this world. I truly don't believe it makes you a monster when you do things that you have to do, regardless of what they are. They may not make sense to everyone. And you may scoff comparing what I did in Morioh to what you do here... but I find it one and the same. It's something you have to do so that everything in your head is at peace once more. Having control over that is important. And it's an important step when it comes to living a quiet and peaceful life.
[Kira waves his hand brushing away this clearly uncomfortable subject for the boy. He also doesn't want to get into any kind of argument about how he compared the need to eat here and the killing of woman in Morioh. Josuke doesn't need to see it his way. He knows the feeling and instinct is the same. And that's what's important. What he knows.] But it's Christmas and hardly the appropriate time or place for such conversation. You've given me the information I needed. I will try it at their pulse and hearts and see if that fairs any better for me.
