He won't speak up, at first, expression neutral and eyes travelling in lieu of words. What sort of state are you in up there, kiddo?]
[Gabimaru is sitting up, so there’s that at least! He’s also not bleeding out on the floor, so someone must have slapped some first aid on him in transport.
He’s still dressed in his bloody ninja outfit though, and flatly staring towards the floor when Solomon approaches. He doesn’t so much as twitch at the footsteps.
Humanity can be tossed away, when the goal demands it. [he grits his teeth before continuing] What happens after will just have to be another burden carried.

no subject
Do you think that little of yourself? Of whatever it is you want?
no subject
It’s because I want it that I’m willing to go through with whatever I have to.
Killing to me is more familiar than my own name—- one more body of someone who doesn’t deserve it is a weight I can bear if I can go back to her.
no subject
And why do you think he didnt deserve it?
Poor placement in the dead of night? That's a pretty flimsy excuse.
no subject
[No hard feelings, Lavi, but Gabimaru was ready to kill whoever and you just walked in at a bad time.]
