Well.. That too. Personally, I'll take whatever I want off 'em, since they're not using them any more.
[ He had taken clothes, after all. He had fed on their regrets, and those regrets were used as a way to mock and motivate those that were left behind. It hadn't been his idea, but it was his choice. He was allowed to take as he would, mock as he would, act as he would within a set of predefined rules... That's right, though it had been limited, it had been his choice. Though they had been taken from corpses, those items had been his and no one else's for his time with them.
Yet, he's not wearing them any longer, and so Ranger is quiet for a moment. He considers saying more. If nothing more, this is a topic that which he has a set of thoughts on. He taps the floor with his index finger, unsure if he should say anything more. It frustrates him now more than ever, because he can't comprehend human reactions to such things. He can record them logically, keep records and note them, but there's no emotional reaction from him even now.
He's satisfied, though. Ranger is satisfied because he can survive when others has died. Was that wrong? Was it wrong to simply survive, even though he might be able to finally reach happiness the next day? Even though he wants that more than anything?

[ Ranger doesn't want to waste his time to hear about this and that on morality.
Tap, tap, tap... Regardless of the answer, he'll add a different question, ]
You killed somebody, right? Tell me about it. I'd rather hear about it from you than some third party.
