He's out here to get away from everything going on at the house, and the peace and quiet has let him think. The sunshine coming in through the leafy canopy that shades him casts his face in mottled light and shadow, and makes his vermillion shirt

Kinda a pretentious name, isn't it?

Nice words. I guess you have to live up to them now.

Which one? Yagami?

It should be no trouble; that's the thing with having no other choice.

'Night,' 'God,' and 'moon'? You tell me. But whatever, you're not the one that chose it.

What makes you think you don't have any other choice?

[killswithapen]

I like it better than say... 'The tree on the hill,' or 'Quiet stream.'

Because, strangely enough, people don't put up with killers for very long once they're aware of them.

Nothing wrong with a sensible name.

[oops, he walked right into that one, didn't he?]

Everyone deserves a second chance though, don't you think?

[killswithapen]

In some cases no, I don't think that. In mine, definitely not. But I've already been killed; punished for what I did in life.

Call it the Christian upbringing talking.

Yet here you are anyway. It doesn't really last here, does it?

[voice]

[killswithapen]

I was killed at home, where I assure you it does last, but no, it doesn't last here.
