[Yeah, it's dark and late. So what? Otoha is standing on top of a roof, letting the camera pan around to take in the city.]

[He doesn't turn the camera towards himself, just faces it towards the coral, glowing softly, before he speaks.]

People can get brought back here. Death doesn't really mean anything, then.

Even at home, though… death wasn't really something that people like me were supposed to fear. Killing didn't really mean anything but the removal of a problem.

[He's quiet for a moment.]

Why do people get so upset about killing or murder? I've never understood it.

[There's another pause, like he's going to say something else, before he shuts off the feed.]

Those are pretty much the only jobs I was given.

Well, I certainly hope you've done a good job with them! I was actually on a job involving something along these lines but it's been put on hold due to some fairly obvious circumstances. If the man I was after happens to show up however, then it's a different story.

Yeah, I have.

[... Hm.]

Are they dangerous? Or are you the one we should be watching out for?

[At least that last part has a little bit of a teasing tone.]

Both.

He's dangerous on the basis that he's killed several people in my world. I'm dangerous on the basis that I've killed thousands with nothing but my own two hands in a matter of months.

_{[Teasing or not, he's totally serious. NO SHAME AT ALL.]}

[Shame? What's that? Is it edible?]

... Impressive. Even I can't work that fast, and at least in the areas of the city I used to be in the most I was well known for making quick work of people.

What can I say? I took pride in my work and strived to make it as beautiful as I could.

Beauty was less important for me than efficiency.
