"Talk"

'Thought'

「Senketsu and Junketsu Voice」
_____________________________
Ryuko Matoi just stood in the tub and let the water from the showerhead gently fall on her nude body, and while it did feel good to have her body wash away blood, dirt, and soreness from her body, she couldn't help but think about everything that had happened today: fighting an enemy who nearly killed her, being sent to a world that wasn't her own, and being told the truth by the same enemy. She couldn't handle any of it; all she wanted was to forget everything today and just go back home with Mako. But that was something she couldn't even do anymore.

'「I'm sorry that all of this has happened to you, is there anyway I can do to make you feel better, Ryuko?」'

Her sailor suit, Senketsu, that was hanging on the door, tried to offer his sympathy and give her any kind of comfort he could, which wasn't much

"... I can't kill or even hate Satsuki, since she told me that she had nothing to do with my Father death, nor can I continue my act of vengeance, since I'm in another stupid world…"

Ryuko slammed her fist against the wall, cracking it slightly, as she spoke in a trembling voice, trying not to break it.

"I'm left with nothing, having no reason to continue on, and have very little hope and doubt of ever returning home…"

The Goku Uniform couldn't be sure due to the running water, but he thought he saw Ryuko starting to let out some tears

"If you want to make me feel better, then please never leave my side, cause right now, you are all that I have left… Ok Senketsu?"

'「... Ok Ryuko」'

After such a heartfelt moment between the two, Ryuko decided it was time to get out of the shower, turned off the water, dried herself off, and put on a large man-size shirt that she had been given by the person who decided to help them and Satsuki, who also put on the same shirt, even though politely, but still demanded, told Dante to go shopping for supplies soon, to which he sighed and nodded in agreement, when that small matter was settled, both girls decided to go to sleep together in the bedroom, they didn't really trust each other quite yet, but still did so because of safety and knowing each other better than the world they were in, as they rested, both Senketsu and Junketsu were left hanging on the door, the white clothing, although still alive, didn't seem to have any form of intelligence or living consciousness, acting more like a wild animal, which made the black clothing sigh lightly, for not having anyone to talk to about this situation

'「I wonder if sharing some of my threads with you would actually make you talk? Would be nice to have another Kamui to have a conversation with」'

Although before Senketsu could continue with such an idea and do some experiments, he quickly stopped his talking and moving when the door suddenly opened and Ebony, a gun, pointed at his face, was held by no one other than the red-coated man himself

"You may not be a demon, but I experienced enough crazy stuff to know when I see something unusual or abnormal."

What Dante said made the black-eyed Kamui go wide-eyed slightly

'「He knows?」'

Senketsu honestly didn't know how to respond or react to this. He doesn't even know if he could talk to him, if he was able to hear him or not.

"Of course, I also lived long enough to decide whether or not they're friends or foe."

Dante then aimed his gun at the two sleeping girls, which made sailor suit rage instantly and out of instinct, he jumped towards the white-haired figure, who easily caught the living piece of clothing. But that didn't stop him from struggling to aim the gun away from the girls while also trying to hurt the owner of said weapons.

'「If You Do Anything To Them, I Swear To You That I Will Do Everything That I Can To Make You Regret It!」'

Senketsu's glare was filled with so much rage and venom that it made the offending man in question flinch slightly by its intensity, before letting out a light chuckle and aiming the gun away

"And now I know."

Dante put away his gun and then hung the Goku uniform back on the door, which was still angry and was thinking about pouncing on the red-coated man again

"You have my word, nothing will happen to those girls when I'm around, that I can promise."

This made the Black Kamui pause and take a moment to look into the face of Dante, despite always wearing an expression of pure arrogance and cockiness, his eyes told a story of honesty, care, and hidden sadness, which made him calm down and listen to what he was told

'「Thank you, whether or not you can hear me, but still, thank you」'

Senketsu accepted Dante's promise, which earned him a pat on the head. "Head?" Before turning around and walking towards the couch, he simply laid down on it.

"Good night shirt, sweet dreams, don't let the stain monster keep you up all night~..."

'「... Good night, you monster…」'
