Chapter Summary: Akira and Goro are... They're... What are they?
In between Akira's fingers is a sheet of star stickers. He waves it around. "You have a lot of these, huh?"
Eyes closed, Goro—Lord Akechi as the Shadows call him—sighs. "I have everything I need here," he says, his voice distorted like television static. Goro gestures to toys he couldn't afford as a child, magazines with his face plastered on them, the delightful, rotting corpse of Shido. "Everything."
"Everything," Akira echoes. "Including me?"
"Yes," Goro murmurs softly, sharply. There's no hesitation. When he opens his eyes again, they glow as yellow as the stars. "I've already earned you."
