I don't monitor! It just affects me! I can't help it if he feels guilty for thinking things! [No denying the pervert accusations. He knows he's been creeping on Hiyori since she admitted to wanting "to be together longer." And while he doesn't lie, he does omit things, badly. So yeah. Hypocrite. One of the better examples of one, but still one nevertheless. And yeah, it was definitely because he picked Yukine up when he was homeless and jobless.] Ah... Yeah, that's so true. Things are a little better now, though! We have a roof over our heads thanks to some friends of mine.

[Using Yukine to defend them both is a better option than simply letting others harm or eat them, that's for sure. And there were times when Yato took a blow for his shinki to keep him safe. Not that he blames Katsuki for not wanting to get into the weeds with regards to his situation. It's confusing at the best of times.]

Probably. I remember one from when I was younger, a small village god who looked after their rice fields... [That his father had mercilessly killed. It still haunts him to this day, how ruthless his dad is.]

No-- that's the one thing they don't have access to. Those memories are sealed away by their god-given name, because otherwise they'd transform into ayakashi from the despair. Though their likes and dislikes from when they were alive persist. [Meaning that because of how Yukine died, he's terrified of the dark, and Tomone, of fire.]
