[HE SURE DOESN'T but it's actually refreshing to see someone agree with that sentiment. So much so that he actually pauses for a moment and gives Akira a thoughtful look before answering.]
I stayed there for a while, just watching the moon. Then I ended up behind some store, looking for a way to sneak in and steal some food. Or something like that. It's been like eight years, it's hard to remember that far back. But I do remember the moon that night.
Yeah. There was a group of kids called 'The Sheep'. They tried to claim they were a gang, but really it was a bunch of orphans trying to survive in the slums. They took me in, and I grew up with them.
[Unfortunately those previously-happy memories are no longer happy, for reasons Akira will find out with memory share lolololol]
[Akira's mouth twitches, a bit fond. it took him a while to get there, considering how distorted Sae used to be, but. . . he trusts his Judgment Confidant to do the right thing now. after all, she did so much for him after he was arrested]

[but he thinks of something else, and he can't help but ask. . .]
Where did you go after you woke up?

Did you ever find a place to stay?

I'm glad you managed to find a place to belong, after all of that.

Either way, it sounds like things weren't easy for you growing up.
It does explain a few things.
[like why Chuuya didn't know what a pillow fort was!!]

Yours just leaves me with even more questions though. Is that something you wanna talk about, or are you gonna give me the run-around about it?
[If Akira doesn't want to talk about it, then he won't ask. But he is curious.]
no subject
Date: 2020-03-16 01:48 am (UTC)You can ask.
[at this point, Akira doesn't have anything to hide about his identity as a phantom thief]
I promise I won't be coy.

There are exceptions to every rule.

You got out of that mess, right? You're too young to be rotting in prison.

That prosecutor was the one who helped me escape, actually. I spent some time undercover after that.

Though I had to turn myself in again later.
