[Don't be flustered, that's cute. If it is, that's fine. They both have a habit of quazi-parenting any stray that comes their way, it seems.
That's a very casual choice of posture, and Dazai isn't blind to it. Hm. Well. He did encourage her to relax. He's just doing the right thing here, is all. That's what they're calling it these days. And he's luckily not the type to ever get nervous, unlike poor, poor Atsushi.]
He is. Sweet little thing. He tends to exhaust himself if someone isn't keeping an eye on him, and if you'd so please...but he is my protege. In the end, his pain is shared with my own. [He'd never accept that. But that's when he gets headpats.
As for what he is...]
That, I'm not certain of. What I am certain of is I've disqualified myself from humanity. Perhaps I could be nothing. Or the wind, the sun, the sky. Something in between. But not a human. And I'm not so arrogant as to declare myself a kami, either.
I can't say for certain. Perhaps others will give me an idea, and then I'll know. But until then, I'm myself. A disqualified being, searching for higher purpose and the desire to do good, ever-changing as the world itself goes on. [He chuckles.] Though...that sounds even more arrogant, I suppose.
[He thinks for a second, and then asks-] ...I'm sure you have a differing perspective, too, Miss Satou. Have you ever wondered what it'd be like? To be one of them?
