[Neku sits there, thinking. He's never been good at expressing his own feelings. How to tell what he means when... Cam took the only human option? Especially considering it was his girlfriend in danger? He's not MAD... but anger is easier to show.

The memory of Cam almost telling him something during the excursion he had led floats up as well. He has to be honest with his reasoning if he WANTS honesty, he supposes. His words come out in a tumble]

Look... a few years ago... a friend of mine got killed. [Not 'died', or 'was killed'. GOT killed, like he GOT milk from the store. Just something that happened]

He was... walking to met up with me somewhere and just.... wham, gone. Like... he just stopped existing. I was a wreck for along time after that. Blamed myself for a lot of things that weren't really anyone's fault. Stuff that was just shitty luck. HE didn't care if I blamed myself, or if people were sad when he was gone. He was dead.

I didn't see it at the time, cuz... well I was pretty in love with my own misery... but his parents, his sister... then were all in a bad way too. Just one kid dead and all these people fucked up in the aftermath. Do you get what I'm saying?

You... did the right thing, and I'm glad you're okay. Just... please be careful.
