[Kagari just stares at Ninurrta for a minute, and then...he starts laughing out loud again, as if he's just heard the funniest thing of his entire life. He's been doing that a lot, in this conversation -- maybe because laughter is the only thing between him and an actual mental break, at this point.
It actually takes him a minute to catch his breath, and he rakes a hand through his hair, a few final incredulous huffs slipping out. It's surreal, this entire moment. He thinks he sees it right now, the distinction between someone like him and a "good" person. No wonder Sybil said there was no chance for rehabilitation, honestly.]
Wow. Incredible.
[He actually slow claps, like an utter douchebag.]
I take it back. You're not just like Akane-chan, you're even more hopeless.
[A shake of his head]
Really, I wonder what that sentence sounds like in your head. "I want to save universes because otherwise there's no point living. I'm such a selfish, terrible person for caring about literally the entire multiverse. It's not like my own happiness matters, or anything."
You know what happens to me, if I stop being useful, back home? I go to a place like this, except every cell's solitary. The only way I stay out is by putting other people there.
[The smirk sharpens, and he tilts his head challengingly.]
So why don't you tell me more about how we're entirely on the same level.
