[he listens to all of that and it isn't so surprising. he knew a bit from knowing gojou's history, but it still feels a little more appropriate to head it from him than know second hand. and while those things are terrible and it's possible that some people would have repressed trauma from such things, greed seems to be of the mind that it's still something that has propelled him forward. with that said though he shrugs lightly, figuring it's fair to explain himself.]
...my father was murdered when I was nine. I spent fifteen years believing I must have been the one who killed him and knowing that the prime suspect of the case had been freed on an insanity plea. The man who raised me after that, my mentor, had set things up to attempt to convict me for both the murder of my father and the murder of the defense attorney on my father's case that occurred four years ago. My mentor was the prosecutor in my murder trial. He was found guilty of both coordinating with the culprit who killed that attorney to frame me and for the murder of my father. He has since been arrested and executed. Those are personal things.
And then there are the cases that I work with as a prosecutor. I have been kidnapped, nearly killed and involved in high-risk cases multiple times. Those are things that occur and yet I continue doing this because it's important to me.
That's quite a lot, Greed! I'm impressed you got out of that remotely sane? Though I wish you didn't need to go through that.
[ Despite his tone being light and playful as usual, there is a genuine emotion of sympathy... Truthfully, he doesn't want to see people have to hurt so early. He doesn't want to see what happened to his best friend happen to others.
[there's another little blip that seems to be something akin to amusement and uncertainty because sanity sure is a concept. it's what he tries to project though, so good to know it's coming off that way.
there's also something kind of understanding there for similar reasons. that still doesn't really prepare him for a hug but...sure. he'll take it. avatar of greed, etc etc.]
So far. [maybe don't joke about that, greed.] Though that makes two of us, doesn't it?
[ Sanity doesn't need to be constant is what Gojou doesn't quite hide, but doesn't clarify. It is his standard as sorcerers are all a little crazy.
He gives him some pats before undoing the embrace. ]
Can say that about anyone. I almost killed a whole building filled with people once. [ just casually throws it out there. ] It does! Even in a small sense.
[hey!! there's a surprised sort of noise with the ruffle and then he pulls away.]
Right then. I'll see you another time. [and actually greed will nod and leave first? he's definitely leaving with the outfit gojou picked out, so there's that.]

Even so, I'm this way.

The keyword is "almost." [there are so many questions?] But perhaps that's a story for another time.

[ He's going to dare and ruffle Greed's hair. ]
Oh, right. I have to catch someone soon, so this is actually a great time to bounce.
