This is for all shinki:

What do ye do about a stubborn, sometimes reckless, selfless god? I wanna help them, but every time I try, I'm not sure they appreciate it.

I feel like I'm angering them an' I don't want to.

[This is his way of asking for help. He really did try to mask his sometimes outdated and awkward spelling/phrasing, though it seems to shine through nonetheless. Please don't kill him, Shun!]

[The way Shun thinks is...new to Joker. He couldn't say why it's new - damn near everything feels new as it is - but this is refreshingly new. The difference leaves him stunned and speechless and his lips too twitch, almost smiling, and there is a definite flush on his cheeks.]

Shun, I - [This acceptance; this appreciation strike him in the heart.] I prefer ta be equals. I didn't wanna assume considerin' the layout of gods and shinkis, but ye never struck me as someone who would lord over someone. I guess that's why I like thee so much.

I'm not scared of fightin' an' if you deem a cause worth a fight, I will too. [No question. No hesitation. When Joker gives his all, he gives everything.]

[That part, at least, is good to hear, and Shun gives a satisfied nod to that answer. He hopes that the desire to be equal means that Joker won't prioritise Shun's own causes over any he might have, but at least they seem to be getting onto the same page now.

Still, since his behaviour yesterday was also up for discussion, he figures he should explain that part too. Joker's not the first to have brought it up, and he crosses his arms as he considers how to put it in a manner that doesn't exclude him again.]

...As for you worrying about me. It's not that I don't care what you think or don't care about myself, but I'm used to being the one who takes on that burden for others. Having someone do it to me is something that's still new, and this is actually the second time I've had this conversation with someone this week. If it's really distracting you all that much, I'll work on it, but I'll need time.
