Do you ever think about Rize and how she’s Kaneki’s age, and how she had a horrific childhood that she escaped and then cherished her freedom and doing things she enjoyed, and then was injured and kept restrained and starved for over half a year while she had her kakuhou removed over and over and over, literally thousands of times, until she was finally freed, and by then had lost awareness of anything but her hunger.

I think about Rize a lot. And I think about how Rize commented that she and Kaneki had a lot in common. And that Kaneki spent six months trying to find her. And that he just wanted to speak with her, and wanted her to recognize him.

I want Rize to come back. I want to know what she’s been doing for these last three years. And I want her and Kaneki to meet again.

date a girl who reads. date a girl who wears glasses and pretty dresses, who smiles at you shyly over a coffee cup in your local cafe. date a girl who shares your favourite author, who will talk about books with you for hours at a time. date a girl who’ll bite a chunk of flesh out of your shoulder, chase you down a dark alley, and maul you with her scaly tentacles. date a girl who is actually a serial killing monster. date rize kamishiro.
