Some souls are destined to always meet over many, many life times, no matter what.

Shichirou and Kalego are two such souls, finding each other across different lifetimes and even different worlds.

Also having it animated and voice acted just drives home how blatantly ‘I’m only here cause it’s to noisy downstairs’ is just, an excuse.

Like, Kalego says this, but he literally brought up enough food for the both of them to eat. And he darn well knew that Balam would have been eating alone otherwise.

And Balam’s little knowing laugh + ‘oh nothing’ right at the end. Yeah, Kalego should know better than to lie to the walking lie detector who ALSO happens to be his closest companion/friend lol. He’s there to keep him company and Balam knows it. Which I think it very sweet.
