#chapter 66

Do we REALLY think Xaden thought telling Violet SORRENGAIL what NOT to do would work???

He might as well have said “Come looking for me” with that note.

… Maybe add in an “I bet you can’t find me and the cure, I triple-dog-dare you”.

"You're disgusting"/Kamiya's POV

⚠️spoiler for chapter 66⚠️

I've read a couple of times now that some people are irritated with Kamiya for calling Yashiro "disgusting" but let's recap what Kamiya knows about Yashiro and Doumeki's relationship:

Doumeki became Yashiro's underling

they had sex at least once

Yashiro threw Doumeki out

they meet again and Doumeki is shaken up

when Kamiya is supposed to guard Yashiro, Yashiro pushes him aside and drags Doumeki with him

he knows that something must be going on between the two of them

Doumeki shields Yashiro in a shooting and gets hit by a bullet

Yashiro takes him to his "own" doctor (Kage)

when Doumeki collapses with a fever, Yashiro comes by to check on him

Doumeki gets into some serious trouble for protecting Yashiro

As far as I remember Kamiya is aware of Yashiro's reputation as a guy who sleeps around, but I could be wrong about that, either way, based on everything Kamiya has seen and heard, I wouldn't be surprised if he thought that Yashiro is a selfish guy who uses Doumeki. When Doumeki gets shot he realizes that Yashiro in fact cares about Doumeki at least to some extent (enough to make sure that he gets proper medical care) and after Tsunakawa's "conversation" with Doumeki, he knows how deeply Doumeki cares about Yashiro.

I presume he went looking for Yashiro thinking that Yashiro would want to know about Tsunakawa's punishment for Doumeki, based on how Yashiro acted after Doumeki got shot. So when goes looking for him and Yashiro completely ignors him, he gets upset thinking that Yashiro doesn't care and is just gonna abandon Doumeki, despite the fact that Doumeki protected him.

Kamiya knows neither about the complexity of their relationship, nor about Yashiro's inner turmoil in that moment. He only sees a guy who's used Doumeki for sex and now wants to abandon him after that guy gets into serious trouble for protecting him from a bullet. Even if you as a reader may see their relationship as problematic or even abusive, there's no way that Kamiya would come to the same conclusion considering what he knows about their relationship. Imo Kamiya is not telling Yashiro to date Doumeki, marry him or anthing of sorts but he's asking him not to abandon him and to try to help him. Considering what price Doumeki is willing to pay for protecting Yashiro, it's no surprise to me that Kamiya would think that Yashiro is a complete a*hole for abandoning Doumeki in this situation.

So the dorito has some degree of sentience. Interesting.
