Calling the Old Man Out
[Goro has barely been seen since getting back from the Fissure, only leaving his room briefly to eat a couple times a day, coffee in hand and looking half asleep. Now, though, he seems to finally be properly awake...at approximately 8PM.]
Good...erm, evening, I suppose. I’m sorry I’ve been so absent lately, that Fissure must have taken more out of me than I thought.
But, now that I’m recovered, there’s something important I need to tell everyone. The last batch of new arrivals included a man named Masayoshi Shido. He’s my father, and a truly despicable man, who has had numerous people killed for his own convenience or benefit. He even had my mother killed to cover up the scandal of my birth.
[Here he holds up a phone, showing a picture of Shido...with what looks like avocado and cheese smeared on his face and a shrimp up his nose, wearing the most tiredly Done expression as he reaches for the offending crustacean.]
I injured him in the forest in retaliation for the things he’s done to me, one of my boyfriends, and countless others, but don’t mistake him for someone who deserves your pity. He’s physically not much of a threat, but he is a skilled schemer and manipulator, and-
[ Which is the moment that the video will shake, and a very brief flash of a familiar face (spoiler: Akira’s) can be seen. Off-screen, he’s gently pressing a kiss to Goro’s cheek, whispering that he loves him. Don’t mind the view of a ceiling for a moment, guys - it’s a nice ceiling, at least?
… He’ll properly make it up to Goro, later, if he can? For now, though, he gently brushes the fingers of one hand through his boyfriend’s hair. Akira’s face can properly be seen, after he takes a quiet breath. He looks… well, how most would remember? Only with a bit more of a tiredness to it, maybe.
Though, that’s not taking away from how serious he looks as he speaks. ]
... and, while Goro is right about all of that, there is one more detail I feel should be taken into account. Shido isn’t a good person, but he’s well-aware of that now. He’s done unforgivable things, but his eyes were opened to all of it after his ass was kicked.
[ JUST SAYING… ]
Anyway, nobody has to worry about him. Besides, he knows if he tried anything, he’d have to answer to all of us from his world, and then some.
[ JUST SAYING... ]
[This is the point where Goro takes his tablet back, looking a bit huffy.]
It’s true, he isn’t likely to be a threat now. But he absolutely doesn’t deserve anyone’s kindness or sympathy.

But forcing him to eat everyone's cooking gone wrong isn't undoing anything negative - it's just prolonging it, isn't it?
[This is like Homura, but with cooking. Cooking]

[Not if you deliberately mess up even worse than normal, Goro...]

[She already knows where this is going.]
As long as you're not just burning everything. Besides, the first and best test taster of one's food is oneself, right? That way you both can try it out while figuring...things out.

[There's a...reason he's not very picky about food.]
no subject
Besides, I'm pretty sure he also has a lot to learn as well. Even if it's not just from cooking.

[She is quiet at this.]
He is already suffering. I know you have good reason to want him to be hurt more. I don't want you to think that I find your pain of what he did to you, less than how he feels now, because I don't.
[This hatred...she knows he feels it. But she can't, despite knowing all about what happened.]
But the truth is, you can't really hurt him anymore than he's hurting now, because no matter what now, because of his change of heart, I think he's lost something very important to him, be it good or bad. It was part of him, it was part of what made him who he was, and now, its no longer there.
Do you know what that is?

Which, whatever, it's my experience that weird old dudes usually can't fucking cook.
