We're all here for a reason, whether we really deserve to be or not. I think a lot of that is up for speculation. Let me ask you this -- would you have done the same for me?
[It's a good question, and a relatively straightforward one. But Kaneki has to think about it. He's done--bad things since getting here. Things he isn't particularly proud of. And he'd done things like that before arriving. Would he have helped someone in a cage? Someone he didn't know?
Of course, some part of him whispers. The part Rize would rather see disappear. Of course I'd help you.]
( there are always going to be things we've done that we aren't, can't be proud of, but given their situation and the nature of this place alone, it stands to reason that there are going to be more of those things than there aren't.
but. anyone with a conscience would think that, wouldn't they? )
In that case, I can't believe anyone that would willingly help another person really belongs here, can you?

How are you holding up?

Thank you again for what you did.
no subject
Do you need anything?
No need to thank me, really.
It's what any decent person would have done.

Why did you help me?
no subject
Then again, I guess it is Hell.
Why wouldn't I?
no subject
maybe I deserved to be there.

I like to think that I would.

[He knows it isn't. Tsukiyama pops into his head unbidden. He helped because he wanted something, and that something was a shot at Kaneki.]
