@Stubonesreal@plutoxcsm Not having a lot of agency beyond small things like what you can eat for lunch is what a "normal" life is a lot of the time. I think that's intentional given the last panel in the manga is him and Power discussing what to get to eat.
@Stubonesreal@plutoxcsm I don't want to overstate but it feels like the first "parental" thing anyone's done for him in the story. Like someone's finally stepped up.
And he does end up losing a lot of freedom from that choice but I think it ties into what Kobeni said to him in chapter 92.
