[He's awake and a monster both, if just for a second, judging from the whited out look of his eyes and the awkward hunch in his shoulders. Snapping his head in Galo's direction, he blinks. His eyes return to normal and he straightens as he gasps weakly.]

Mr. Thymos!

[burningrescue]

. . .

[He looks at Zenitsu for a long second and then says.]

You know, you can call me Galo if you want! No one really calls me Mr. Thymos.

[swordflash]

Isn't that too familiar?

[His gaze drops to the floor in front of him. Not that it matters now, does it?]

[burningrescue]

Nah. We know each other by now, right?

[He's also. From future dystopia America, so it doesn't really apply.]

[swordflash]

[He's too tired to argue. If that's what Galo wants, he'll get it.]

I guess so.

[ . . . ]

Hey. Listen. Ash might do the work, not me, but I'm fighting to save you with everything I've got.

[swordflash]

But Ayabe and Isaac are still . . .

[He trails off.]

Mr. Kim is hurt, too. I hurt him.

[For all of Zenitsu's claims of being a coward, that's what's troubling him more than the possibility of losing his life, huh?]

That's not your fault. Lio and Hunter - and Dazai, and Melt and Nikki, too. All of you - it isn't your fault.

[Intellectually, he knows that. He wouldn't pass up the opportunity to absolve himself of the guilt. At the same time, his stomach won't stop hurting. He feels nauseous, knowing what he's consumed.]

What's going on now? Did we learn anything else about the house since I've been in here?

[Galo's fighting, he said. If he's fighting to save one person, he's fighting for everyone here.]
