→ ・And those were probably the words that made Finch think the most after they were used against him. But at least they helped him create a character. He doesn’t even notice… that his tone was more reflective than complaining…
It sounded more like self-criticism.・

→ I think it’s unfair… them calling themselves heroes with so much pride… when they don’t even know what it’s like to live a normal life.

They don’t deserve that title.
↘︎

→ They isolate themselves… kill monsters…
But they don’t even know how to talk to people!

・Finch, for example… who just seemed like he was cutting up different stories and gluing them into one.・

AND I’M NOT SHY!

・He says it out of nowhere, accusatory. Only now does it hit him.・

A-anyway- ↘︎

→ bars and nightclubs just for forgetting to go without his uniform.・

Ah…
Well…

I just think they’re all way too full of themselves.

They think they’re heroes!
But… I’ve never seen any of them, uh… actually protecting people! Never.

I’m wheezing here because now Finch is literally going to have to invent a tragic backstory for him 😭😭😭😭

Pffft

→ He wasn’t going to wake Jiyuu over this… Not at all. He’d leave his jinki there… and keep up the act of being a harmless boy.・

You’re really close, huh???

・He squinted, cheeks lightly flushed as he finally felt Jabber’s warmth. Finch’s vision was poor, but his other senses were sharp.・

・His voice came out as if his lungs had shrunk, Finch already getting breathless, his heart racing in his throat. He knew Jabber. Knew his jinki… He had been briefed on the Raiders. And now he was probably realizing that next time, it would just be easier to ignore the guy and keep moving.↘︎

→ Just thinking about the blades made his stomach twist with fear.・

Ah! I-I’m not good at fighting… Like—
Why would I be good?!
I’m just some guy wandering around… H-hating cleaners.

I—

→ He lifted his head slightly, trying to avoid Jabber’s mouth brushing his skin, and hunched his shoulders a little, palms pressed against the wall, his gaze immediately checking Jabber’s rings to see if Mankira would activate.↘︎

→ Of course, his jinki was trembling, ready to be activated at any second—but he couldn’t give himself away. He had to keep pretending he was just some random NPC guy.✮

Hmph.

✮ Finch mimicked him and shrugged, just mirroring the distaste.✮

Goodbye, smiling weirdo!

✮ He said it, analyzing him, then walked away as if he already had somewhere to be.....
or was just taking a stroll! Who knows. ✮

>> Tamsy just locked him up! But sometimes he escapes… That’s when Finch awakens!

MUPPY

NOOOO!
You’re totally right!!! Tamsy made it!!! That’s why the cage is yellow! It would be pink if it were Finch’s!

But Finch inside doesn’t see the cage! He just doesn’t know why he isn’t being heard or why he can’t leave. 🙂‍↕️✨ Since inner Finch is hard to tame… >>
