“What do you mean, you like eating people?” Kaneki stares horrified at his mirror image.
“I eat people only when I have to. But I do have to,” says Oneshot! Kaneki. “So do you.”
Kaneki growls. “I just eat ghouls.”
“That’s noble, but it won’t work for long, you know. Not without becoming a kakuja.” Oneshot! Kaneki licks his lips. “Should I be worried about you eating me?”
“No,” Kaneki says softly. “If I could live without eating, I wouldn’t eat at all.”
“So would all of us, don’t you think?” Oneshot!Kaneki tilts his head. “Heard you and Touka finally married.”
“Touka? You know Touka?” Kaneki brightens.
Oneshot! laughs. “I know a Touka. She’s a great partner. We defeated many investigators together. Though her temper and appetite are hard to control.”
“The temper’s easier now. She doesn’t have much an appetite that I know of.” Kaneki shrugs. “You love her, don’t you?”
Oneshot! grins. “Of course.”
“Guess that’s something we have in common.” Kaneki smiles dreamily at his counterpart, and both lose themselves to thoughts of their respect Toukas.
