His fingers curled against the Badtz-Maru toy and hugged it tight before setting it aside, propped against the pillows. "I won't deny that I'm very possessive. I've worked my ass off in trying to keep my family happy, even when that meant being outside of it for a while. I don't want to lose anyone. I know that maybe they'll just disappear one day, and I don't want that to happen, so I cling to what I can, when I can." He looked down and sighed.
"If my sisters or okasan disappeared, I'd be lost." It was true - they were the only truly important people in his life. Brenda and Torii had always been his safety net, and Sadako was always his mother - as well as the one person who could keep him alive. He adored her.
