[As Koro holds Hiji's hand, a familiar warmth builds inside him. A dull, faint hunger that eats at him from a distance. He ignores it. It's normal for him after all.
But once Hijikata brings his the rain, that hand that held Hijikata's so tenderly tightens, trembling. Koro's eyes narrow. His whole body tenses.]
What it's going to...do to me...?
[Memories flood back. Back to that prison. Back to the lilac rains which drowned all that stood in it in insatiable lust.
Koro withdraws his hand, now more aware of the hunger in his gut. He seems terrified.]
It's dangerous for me to be out here. I need to go.
