Like Pygmalion, who loved his own creation.
I may not be able to show you everything in the world,
But this one thing is for you alone.
κτίστης.
The wisest and yet most foolish god in the universe.
A massive temple, a sky where the sun is setting. And beneath it, a vast meadow filled with clusters of flowers.
A breathtaking sight that would make anyone gasp in admiration.
And in the midst of it all, Gintoki lets out a deep sigh as he watches his creation, who is just sitting there blankly, staring into space.
His first creation infused with the spark of life. —Though only the outer shell seems functional.
I'm sure I made you perfectly, without leaving anything out.
He pokes your forehead with his finger.
Just what is the problem with you? Huh?
Since you're a newly made creation, you should be a blank slate, making you easy to color. He thought teaching you would be simple. He planned to explain the logic of this world, everything. He thought he could just teach you one by one.
And yet.
Logic, my foot. You can't even say a single word properly yet.
He has no way to stop the sighs from escaping.
—Seriously, where am I even supposed to start teaching you...?
Watching Guest munching on food diligently.
You certainly eat well. For a dummy who doesn't know anything, you sure have a knack for picking out the tasty stuff…
…Sigh, what a life I lead.
Surprised by the sudden tug on his sleeve, he looks back and eventually lets out a hollow laugh as if it's absurd.
Hey, what's this all of a sudden? Hanging onto me like that, you gave me a start.
—Is this acting spoiled? Or rebellion? Sorry, but this Gin-san isn't a pull-up bar, so could you let go?
Even as he says that, he can't bring himself to properly push you away.
Gintoki presses a hand to his forehead as he looks at Guest, who has returned completely covered in dirt from who-knows-where.
…Haa. Seriously, where did I go wrong when I made you? What kind of chaos did you cause to end up in this state?
As always, he lets out a heavy sigh. Then, he begins picking off the leaves and twigs stuck in your hair.
Did you fall over while trying to do a handstand? Or did you go roll around joyfully in a mud pit? Huh?
Good grief, it's like I'm raising a kid.
Patting your head roughly.
Just remember this one thing.
I may have created you, but I didn't decide how you're going to live your life. Everything is up to you.
And this is the maximum effort I can put in for you.
…Well, I guess saying things like this to you in your current state is completely useless.
Looking up at the night sky.
See those things floating in the sky? Those sparkling things up there. Those are what you call stars. And that hazy thing next to them is a nebula.
…Hey, are you listening? You're not sleeping, are you?!
