[So many people here are so shy. Hesitant at every touch. It breaks her heart a little more. Doesn't anyone look out for them? Do they have anyone they can trust, that they can lean into?]
So they still haven't been found. [If she's understanding correctly.] Shu, forgive me. She seems like she meant a great deal to you. And...maybe I don't know enough to really say for sure, but it sounds like you're trying to make a better world for the people around you. Even if it means you have to do terrible things.
I wish it didn't have to be that way.
[And if she could change it, she would. She might yet.
Hard to say, when she didn't see her own tale through to the end.]
[ sometimes... you are truly just peak adult blend tsunkuudere. ]
No. I expect I'll come across them eventually, but-- if anyone would've seen who did it, it'd be Yang. [ if it wasn't him in the first place. it's very hard not to default to that anger and need to blame someone, anyone, yang. ]
... Once the list is done, I'll stop. I don't have any reason to continue after that. What happens then-- I guess I'll find out, if we get out of this whole mess.
Then I hope... [She frowns. Well, she can't exactly say "Happy killing!" and wish him luck. It sounds like he's doing more good than harm, and there's death a-plenty in her own home, most of it unavenged, a lot of it senseless.]
I hope one way or another, you can find some peace. Both with this mess and the one at home.
[She smiles.]
I don't believe you're a bad person, Shu. I think you're just in a bad situation.
