Yeah, probably. I don't remember anything about him, except that he left home when I was really young. Never came back, not even after my mom died.

Hmm, sounds like a jerk, yeah.
So when'd you start livin' on your own?

I was five when she died. Some of the researchers in town brought me food now and then, so I guess I had some help... if you can call it that.

Prob'ly better.
Most of the people who paid attention to me afterward wanted to make me do crap for 'em. Woulda rather've just been me and Pochita on our own.
You have a buddy like that?

They're... sort of like devices used to perform magic. Their cores look like gemstones. Like this.

[no rita that is very sad]
[Denji leans in to takes a look at it]

[and sometimes even nothing is better than the alternative]
Help me carry these back to the apartments.

You look plenty strong, don't worry. I believe in you.
B'sides, all this thinkin' about the past is making my head hot. Helps to focus on somethin' else like carrying some wood around. Smells nice, too.

So what, this is some kind of coping mechanism? Ugh...
Whatever, I guess I'm going that way, anyway.
