[Kagari's never really thought about the idea of having kids. For one thing, it was basically impossible for him--even if he managed to find another Enforcer to date him, he never expected to live past thirty in the first place. He always just wanted to have a good time with what he could salvage of his trainwreck of a life before he expired.

So Valjean's advice rings a little hollow, but it does touch on something that's sore in his heart, still...though perhaps, not in the way the older man might expect.]

Then you oughta be extra careful, right? Make sure you're still around for when she wakes up and shit.

[He almost sounds...angry? It's not really Valjean he's angry at, to be fair, but he doesn't know where to direct the sudden surge of it, the excruciating unfairness that the people with the most to lose are always the ones laying themselves and their stupid hearts on the line. Akane watched one of her friends get murdered in front of her because she chose (chose) a job like working for the MWPSB. What will this man lose for his stupid kindness? It frustrates him endlessly, and he doesn't know how to deal with it.]

I mean sure, the Natha can bring us back and all, but dying sucks and there's no need to push our luck. Who knows when they'll need to charge their god-batteries or whatever.
