[ izumo's voice brings him back to the here and now, and kuroh sharply looks up. really, it hadn't been that long...he's guessing totsuka didn't tell kusanagi about their run-in during the bodyswap. after that he'd resolved to wait until it had blown over.
his answer is quiet, but his voice doesn't waver. ] I would have had to. [ in theory it was that simple, but he'd often asked himself the exact same question. being able to kill anyone was something he had often doubted he could bring himself to do.
he comes so close to asking kusanagi more...hopeful determination shows on his face as he considers how to ask who did kill totsuka if it wasn't shiro, and if shiro isn't the colorless king then who is he really, because his friend can't remember anything about himself and his identity crisis is painful to witness, you see...
but at the last second, he selflessly decides not to make that decision for him. but more selfishly, he's also afraid of losing shiro as he is now. kuroh nods his head. ]
That's all, yes...thank you. I apologize for disturbing you. [ then he crosses through the kitchen once again, on his way out. ]
