Nothing right now. Don't kill anybody, like I asked.
[she might have Words Later about the will thing but she doesn't know about it yet!! and then he got eaten by a crow so i guess she'll never know...
but - her emotions are easy and not mad, at least.]
And think about what I'm telling you and try to do it. [she pulls back, and puts her hands on either side of his face. runs her thumbs under his eyes carefully, just a gentle little swiping motion.] Try real hard.
[ ... He's trying, but the only thought that comes is "kill somebody when Nimona says to" and he would do that in a heartbeat. That gentle touch under his eyes makes him want to cry again, so he brings his own hands up to rub the heels of his hands against his eyes, to make them stop. ]
...Okay.
[ it's an empty okay, because he has to try hard to try, and even if he wants nothing more than to understand what Nimona's saying and be who she wants him to be, he doesn't know where to start. It's frustrating, and it's nerve-wracking, and most of that is directed at himself because ghosts don't change easily. He's still the same way he was when he was 13 all those years ago. ]
Come on, like I'm gonna tell you to behave and then leave you out to dry, Hanako. Ugh.
[she hates that she has to tell him to behave because honestly she'd really just let him do whatever he wants, but unfortunately ace, reigen, datz and temenos have given her a single desire to have some morals, so. they can figure it out together.]
Which means you're going to lead by example, right?
[ be a little goody two shoes Nimona. he bets she wouldn't even last a day before she cracks, which Hanako will just take as permission to do whatever the hell ]
Yeah, I won't kill random people because they made me mad. That's the example. [he can play pranks and be a goblin she doesn't care about that part, but she has not, in fact, killed random people so she's justified in this!!!]
[ no!!! he looks like a normal boy without his hat and it's unsettling, he's going to climb Nimona like a tree if that's what it takes to get his hat back ]
Ryuki says we can go live with him for a bit, if you want. I don't know how happy he is at the police, so... Do you think he'll be mad if we kidnap him?
Oh, what was it that he said...? I think it was that we can do whatever we want, as long as it's not something he'd have to arrest us for, or something that'd get him in trouble with his workplace.
[ So petty crimes might be okay. Major crimes as long as Ryuki doesn't see. ]
Maybe. [she's not sure she wants to go to ryuki's world - it'd be better than where she's from, so at least there's that.] But even if I don't, I think you should.

no subject
this amuses her, actually, and she hops down to his shoulder.] He'd probably get really mad, yeah. We'd have to bring Tama, too.
Where'd you wanna kidnap him to?

Maybe we just visit him and make sure he takes a break. Or I guess we could do crimes and have him come catch us, do you think he'd think that's fun?
