[ not safe ] Heh! Yes, indeed! Marvel at my amazing masterpiece, i am touched you would already assume it was my talent and time that went into this and not any of my other siblings'
It is incredible, non??? I believe that your exterior is the scariest of all, but possibly behind all of that is something... sweet. [ He pushes his optimism waaaaay too much. ]

I love carving pumpkins! I feel a little bit sad cutting them with a knife but then i realize.. what else should a pumpkin be used for? It is the symbol of halloween! I carved a sexy pumpkin.. of me.. but i wanted a scary one and you are the scariest i know!
You say it isn't sweet until you've added sugar and cream... what is the sugar and cream of your life, Reaper?
[That's what a pumpkin can be used for. Is he serious though, or joking? You decide. Anyway, he doesn't give Karamatsu enough time to ponder on that point alone, as another reply comes in a few moments later.]
Things your fragile heart wouldn't approve of. I was a military man. A mercenary. I've told you before. I enjoy fighting. Gunfights, and tests of strength.
...
Being away from Earth for almost a year, who knows. Haven't found anything I'd call 'sugar and cream'. So it looks like you'll have to settle with the idea that I'm bound to be bitter forever.
You have done so much in your life.. not just because of your age, but because of what you are passionate about! [ wait, did he even really know how old Reaper was? Anyway.. ]
You will find it.. i believe in you. You will find somebody who likes fighting, gunfights and tests of strengths as much as you! There is nothing wrong with having friends. I think that is what is the sweetness in my life. [ Since, you know, he doesn't have a girlfriend or anyone special like that. ]
[He hadn't thought of that. But Karamatsu was right. He, Ichimatsu and Karamatsu were the last remnants of that place. There was noone left who had shared that horrible experience.]
What with how Sombra's forgotten how everything went, you're not wrong.
...It's only us three left who can even tell stories of such a place. If anyone would even choose to believe them.
Almost makes it easy to try to pretend they were just a bad dream.
I can't pretend it was a dream. Too much happened to me for me to brush it off as a bad dream. [ He almost died so much. He witnessed death of others. ]
[Wow. Alright, of all things he expects the delusional neet to say that... isn't really high on the list.]
If I affirm that to you, I wonder how quickly you'll let it go to your head.
That aside...
Life experiences, especially the bad ones, are what make you into the person you'll eventually be. Just be sure that the kind of person you want to be in the future is one you'll be able to live with.
What if im not sure of the person i want to be in the future? [ ABORT MISSION. THIS IS GETTING DEEP. ] What if.. i do not have the courage or confidence in the person i foresee myself being??

Re: THANKS DW
...
And there he goes, pushing that 'sweet' claim again. He rumbles out a sound of irritation before responding.]
...Pumpkin isn't sweet until you've added sugar or cream to it.The seeds are bitter and the flesh is bland and stringy.
[He just has to knock you down a few pegs, doesn't he. But at least, after a few moments he'll add:]
...
Your carving skills are better than I'd have imagined.

Cut a hole in it and wear it on your head.[That's what a pumpkin can be used for. Is he serious though, or joking? You decide. Anyway, he doesn't give Karamatsu enough time to ponder on that point alone, as another reply comes in a few moments later.]

that gag tag i s2g
...
Is that why you seem so dead set on making friends with everyone around you?
[Because in his usual bitter, grumpy way, he's going to avoid saying he has any friends. Because as it stands, he could name a few if forced.]

I've been alone most of my life. It's not as bad as you might think.
Only if you focus on what it feels like, being alone, that's when it becomes a problem.

Hobbies. Learning new skills, honing old ones.
Learning about this place we're stuck in.
You might not have realised it yet, but it's nearing a year since we've been taken from home.
