[This feels like some kind of trick or cruel joke. Like he'll follow this man and find out he was going to be killed after all. Or that someone sedated him and put him outside for this man to find and then a droid will come and take him away and it'll be his fault. His eyes start to prickle and grow hot, and he seems to be struggling not to let his expression crumble.]

[It's all he's able to manage. His throat sounds like it's all but closing around that word, and what he wants to do is run away. Run until he ends up in some deserted place so he can starve to death there and be finished with it. After spending so long internalizing the idea that he's worthless and dangerous and unfit to be around people at large while being too young to really understand any of it, it's overwhelming to be told suddenly that none of that matters anymore. Maybe this person is lying. Maybe he does work for the facility and is about to kill him, but isn't telling him the truth because he was warned that Kagari might struggle.
When he thinks of it like that, he seems to calm down.]
