Rewrite of the chap where Naki dies and instead Kaneki comes early and deflects the Oggai attack (bc he’s been defending Touka and Hinami, why not precious blonde bean?) and Miza telling him off for almost dying?

PRECIOUS BLONDE BEAN!!! He totally is. 

Big bro… Naki teeters against the Oggai’s blades. 

“Naki!” screams Miza. She lunges forward, but she won’t be there in time – 

Bam!

Kaneki’s rinkaku slams the Oggai onto their backs. 

“King?!” Miza cries.

“KANEKI!” Naki shrieks. His vigor renewed, he leaps sideways and knocks several of the children unconscious.

“Don’t kill them – just stop them,” Kaneki orders. He smacks a few more into the tunnel wall.

“Got it.” Miza positions herself besides Naki. “By the way, if you die on me, I’ll get Yamori to torture you in heaven.”

“M – Miza!” Naki looks horrified. “I would never leave you!”
