[It's a genuine question; Division 1 has always been his home, the closest to family he's had since he was five years old, but he and Gino lived in different worlds. Kagari doesn't really understand why his lack of antipathy--or truly, his opinion at all--should mean anything to the former Inspector. He was a nobody to him, after all, just another wild beast to handle. It seems weird to Kagari that that should change merely because Gino himself became a latent criminal. Maybe he's lonely, without Kou-chan around, with Akane-chan more busy now. Kagari of all people can relate to that.]
Y'know, this thing's not gonna work if you feel like you gotta apologize for being who you were.
[Kagari had walked into the MWPSB with a giant chip on his shoulder, and Kogami had surprised him. He'd been an Inspector too, once, but he knew how to set Kagari at ease, how to relate to him. They had been equals, for the time Kagari had known him. With Gino, it already seems like he's going to carry around their former difference in power like his own personal sin to bear.]
Anyway. You know what I meant. [He'd never experience the life of a "normal person", after all, no matter how easy Akane tried to make things on them.] But I always had a fun time being an Enforcer, so yeah, I'm staying on board.
:o !!
