...He's alright. [A boy, huh? No wonder he's friendly. There were stray cats in Daath in the area he lived - after Van let him out of the basement, anyway - so cats weren't really new to him. He'd just... never owned a pet before, really. Star wasn't his, after all.

It's a weird feeling, being responsible for another life. Like having a kid, only less long-term. Though that does make him consider one thing-]

You still should've said something first. What happens if we get sent home? Or kidnapped? Or it gets hurt in some experiment? This isn't a home, replica.

[And left unspoken is his biggest concern: what if they die? Because he knows that his own death is only a matter of time.]
