#also first and only reigen pov chapter oo wow look at that

[quirkle2]

“Still kickin’?” the spirit calls, gentler than Reigen has ever heard him speak, “Hey, Shigeo, look at me.” Reigen still has his hands cupping the kid’s face, and even though Shigeo blinks through the agony in his eyes and moves his gaze around to look for Dimple, he can’t find it in himself to remove his hold. They stay there and Shigeo seems fine with that, even leans into the touch as he sees Dimple and attempts to keep his wobbly attention on him. Something in Dimple’s face cracks. “You have to tell him, kid.” Heart hammering in his throat, Reigen looks between them both, feeling miles away. Shigeo, still breathing hard and still looking unsteady in terms of consciousness, takes a moment to register the words, but when they drill through his head his glazed over eyes widen just a little. The no that eeks across the room makes Reigen want to cry, it’s so small.
