[Hide might get a touch overzealous at times, but he can take care of himself. He had been able to track Yamori without anyone being the wiser. He'd found a way inside the CCG and hit a stroke of luck when Marude promoted him. He might not be as physically strong or fast as Kaneki is now, but that's why his plan of attack isn't to storm CERES' building looking for information.

This sort of thing calls for something more subtle. A level of intrigue that Hide has accustomed himself to in the past year. The point is to not allow them to know how suspicious they are. Which is why they should probably steer clear of talking about this in such an open and public environment after this point.]


But you have to admit, this place isn't bad. [Aside from its horrible movie choices. He'd be renting movies from now on thanks.] The city is certainly lively. Kind of reminds me of home.

[Hide wonders what has become of the other people back home too. He hopes that CERES just hasn't gotten around to fixing their codes yet. That there still remains a chance that he'll see Amon-san, Mado-san, and Seidou-san again. He hasn't been completely truthful with them, but that doesn't mean he wishes them ill. They're fine people who care about their jobs, even if Hide disagrees with their feelings towards ghouls as a whole.

He knows that Kaneki had the best of intentions. He doesn't begrudge him for trying to protect Hide. But it does sting that while Kaneki thought it was best to keep him away from his involvement with ghouls, he never once thought that perhaps Hide could help him. He might not stand a chance against a ghoul in a fight, but he does have other abilities at his disposal.

If he hadn't have had to pour over every piece of news he could get about ghoul activity and Aogiri he would have been able to provide more help, instead of taking so long trying to put pieces together that he had no actual proof for. By trying to keep him from getting involved Kaneki shut him out and made getting involved Hide's only choice. How could he step back and live with himself when he knew that Kaneki was in so much trouble?]


Kaneki...[He sighs and looks away. There's just so much that Kaneki doesn't know. Things he doesn't realize.] I'm always going to be involved. You're my best friend. If people are trying to hurt you...it's my business too.

[He knows that their relationship will never be exactly how it was. Especially once everything is out. They might see each other a bit differently. But he believes that, no matter what, they will always be friends. Nothing could make him turn against his friend.

Hide wonders how much Kaneki knows about Kanou. Clearly, by the way he's speaking, he must know something. Maybe he knows why Kanou experimented on him in the first place. That had been one thing he and Mado-san hadn't been able to figure out.]


You shouldn't. He had no right to do this to you.

[Hide meets his eyes readily, expecting what would come next. He's not sure how to broach the topic himself, so he's actually relieved that Kaneki is doing it for him.]

I know you were kidnapped by a ghoul organization named Aogiri. The CCG's raid on their base? It happened earlier than expected because someone called in an anonymous tip about their location. That was me.

[He watches his friend's face closely as he speaks, waiting for a reaction.]
