"Want? I am impartial to how you spend your time. I will, however, accompany you. You possess a death note, and in turn, I shall possess you." Kaegira said matter-of-factly. He'd hate for this girl to get the idea that he actually cared. What a dreadful existence he'd have if he went everywhere caring... He shook the thought from his mind quickly as she stepped out the door. She seemed to wait for him to pass through the doorway before closing it and locking it, while polite, it was unnecessary. He was not bound by walls as humans were on this earth. What would people around her think if she was staring into her empty house before finally shutting the door? Yes, he'd definitely picked a crazy one. She'd need to be more careful.

"My favorite place is that market up the street. Earth-grown food is so delicious," he was sure to tell Hanako his favorite thing about the Earth early in the game, humans who bared no ill-will towards someone usually enjoyed giving them what they like. At least, that's what he believed to be true about the humans. He hardly payed too much attention to know if he was right or wrong.

Along their walk around the town, they passed by several people, but the only details he cared to take in about these creatures were there names, after all, humans were the most unappealing creatures to the Shinigami, merely they were a life source for them and that is why they bared to acknowledge their existence. Fuji Saitou, Masako Itou, Kado Nakamura, Aito Suzuki... The list went on and on, but he remembered each name carefully.

They were all short, scrawny, and pale. They were in Japan, after all, so none of their other features had really struck him out of place.

Hanako hadn't seemed to know any of these people herself as she maintained steady eye-contact with the path in front of her, actually, Kaegira wasn't entirely sure that she was paying any attention at all. "Hanako? Are we going anywhere in particular?" He asked her loudly, though no one else around would be able to hear him unless they'd touched Hanako's death note. He expected her to slightly nod or shake her head as to not seem like she was talking to herself, but he's been wrong before. He would probably die of laughter if she actually spoke out loud to him.
