[ when he was finally free from the challenges of the Jungle and Catacombs, Kaneki returned to the empty house that was now his "home"; empty, broken, with little inside because he had no time to fix it up and patch what was rotting since he had arrived just few days ago. And yet, he already went through so much that it feels like an eternity since he crawled out of the ocean as a small helpless red squid. After opening to the door to his house, kaneki finds two of the prizes; naturally he was wary of them at first, but upon further research and sort of poking them here and there, he came to the conclusion they weren't tricks and would not suddenly blow up in his face when he least expected.
But eventually he takes them and just wanders back to the beach where he first showed up, to stare at the ocean that he feels that it haunts him. It's not familiar, yet it is; he came from it as a small tiny squid and he remembers that. In the end, kaneki isn't sure if coming out of there was the right choice, if regaining his senses was something he should have done. He is still so lonely and still so desperate, and still so unsure that his existence is worth it.
Kaneki sits down, watching the angry waves, before he drops the Sun Chalice and the (really lame) T-shirt next to him that says "I'M BARELY SURVIVING TRENCH AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS T-SHIRT" (thanks, Moss King). As tacky as it was, the shirt spoke the truth: kaneki is barely surviving, and he doesn't even know if he should be there. Everything feels so wrong but he has no idea how to fix it, either.
With a sigh, Kaneki calls for his Omen and smokes pours from his shoulder to form a Chinese Red-head Centipede that quickly wraps around Kaneki's fingers. He looks at it for a second, before smiling a little ]
What am I doing? [ the Omen won't answer.
But perhaps someone passing by might hear Kaneki ]

[ I can and will write different prompts for whoever is interested in meeting Kaneki on a different setting! You can hit me up on my CR top-level, or my plurkvilani, and I will write something to fit both our characters (= If you are meeting Kaneki for the first time, here are the first impressions for the character, feel free to play with them as well! ]

Lucius has a terrible urge to hide. He hates people finding out that he couldn't read before, and still has trouble with it now. But hiding is completely impossible, and impractical, and this stranger seems kind enough.
And he is curious.]
Is that what these are?
no subject
Yes. They existed in my world, long before humans. But there was a world-wide event - a big metor fell from the sky - and all of them died, leaving only bones behind.
[ the older boy hums softly ] I don't know a lot about them, but I found the bones so I was curious.
no subject
He looks again at the skeleton.] So, they were in this world too?
no subject
Hm... I wonder about that. There is a lot in this world, things from places some people recognize, no matter what world they came from. [ so basically ] i think this place has... a bit of every place.
no subject
[He says it as a joke, but it's not impossible, is it? If humans are transported here, and beings somewhat like humans are too, then why not animals as well? Perhaps it simply happens out of human sight.]
no subject
and then closes ]
You know, all things considered, that wouldn't be the strangest thing in this place.
