the sentiment kind of stirs something in his emotions, something bittersweet as he thinks about Komaeda's words. even if he wanted to know that he'd been missed...there was also a slight relief in someone being glad to see him for once.
but he stifles it, not letting the emotion come to his face, because those kinds of feelings aren't for him. they're for people like Neku, who still has so much life to live if he so chose it.
Joshua was just dead now -- beyond most human ties, now. there of course were Reapers who straddled the world of the living and the dead, but things like that were beyond him. to get caught up in the world like that would be to invite feelings, and he'd forced himself to cut that out a while ago so he could do his damn job.
especially after he had met Neku, and gotten so attached to him.]
I guess that's as good answer as any.
[he still looks amused though, before hopping off his bed and drifting over towards where Komaeda was.]
I do hope you all didn't have too much fun while I was gone.
