cw; cannibalism

They don't have to hurt people in order to exist.

[ technically, Kaneki doesn't either. Not here, since supermarkets have what he needs. And back home, he'd rely on already dead bodies.

But the truth is, ghouls can't just consume blood. Even donations mean that someone had to be hurt and mauled to feed a ghoul. It's very different from vampires who can drink blood without killing and can also rely on blood donations.

Ghouls are different. Kaneki can not rely on alternatives because there are none. And if the "food" in the supermarkets disappears, then there would be a very big problem that vampires still wouldn't have to deal with but Kaneki would. And so would humans.

That is a very big difference. ]


This is the kind of existence ghouls lead. [ it's the kind of existence Kaneki leads, too. ]

... It's a monstrous existence.
