"...Thank you." Denum murmured as he got up. "...You spoke to Kayen?"

"He stayed here for a few hours," Neko informed, looking down.

"Look at me when you talk about my little brother." Denum said firmly.

Neko lifted his eyes to look at the other once more. He wanted to ask what Denum meant about Kayen being his 'brother', but felt it best not to press the angry teenager.

"...What did you say to him?" Denum asked evenly. "What did he tell you?"

"I tried to tell him that Silvers aren't horrible," Neko informed. "He thought that I meant that humans are his enemy."

"For what they've done...they are." Denum said stiffly. "But specific humans. I never thought he could do it."

"He wasn't in his right mind, that much I can tell you," Neko whispered. "There was a difference between the little boy that was in my church and the boy who hurt those people..."

"It was the same person!" Denum snapped. "Just with your misdirection!"

Shotaro reached out and grabbed Domino's hand, a frown on his features.

"What?" He frowned back at Shotaro. "You know how that conversation probably went."

Shotaro frowned at him and shook his head.

Denum huffed and laid off Neko.

Giving Neko a sad look, Shotaro stood up and grabbed Denum's hand, pulling him back into the room where LiSen was laying.

Denum didn't fight as he was led off. He looked over at the boy lying on the bed before hurrying past Shotaro and over to the prone boy.

"Li?" He called softly.

"Mmm... yeah?" LiSen asked, rubbing his eyes and turning to look at Denum.
