[ wow, power didn't waste a second! denji let out a long sigh, his head tilting back slightly as if the weight of the situation was physically pressing down on him. his lips twisted in something between mild annoyance and resignation. he's really just gonna be offered like a damn juice box, huh? he thought to himself while rubbing the spot on his cheek where power had tugged at him. still, he didn’t argue. would’ve been a waste of energy anyway. he could regenerate— she was right about that. and hell, it wasn’t like this was the worst thing he’d been asked to do.

as for makima- ] ... I am careful around her. [ staying away completely is not an option, something about keeping a close eye on an enemy and all. he's not trying to be a hero, but he wouldn't underestimate the control devil by not acknowledging that she exists. ]

Just don’t get greedy, alright? I ain’t tryna pass out in the middle of all this kaiju crap.

[ at her last question, he blinked and glanced at aki before shrugging. ] Dunno, kinda lost track. Feels like a lifetime, though. The other outsiders are super chill ... most of them.
