Why?

[ if you can ask questions then so can he!! ]

[agleam]

[he blinks.]

Because people are important to me?

[preowned]

I know it sounds like a stupid question, but plenty wouldn't admit that.

[agleam]

I know. But, also, it's so easy to admit that.

[preowned]

... apparently not...

[agleam]

You'd think people would at least get better at hiding it if they don't want to admit to it.

[preowned]

You would think...

What do you think about the people here? Overall?

[agleam]

[he tilts his head.]

In what way?

[preowned]

Do you think we can figure this out?

[agleam]

Yes.

[immediately.]

We have no other option.

[preowned]

Do you believe that because we have no other option, or because you believe that we as a group are capable?

[agleam]

[he pauses.]

...Both?

[preowned]

... both is good.

[agleam]

[he nods.]

I promised Sieghart that I'd get him back, and make sure his hostage was alright. And... Alphinaud said he was going to look forward to counting on me more as time went on, so even if I didn't get to say the same to him, I still need to make sure he comes back safe. And the rest of them, too.

[preowned]

We can't let a promise be broken.

[ he looks down at his own pinky finger. ]

We may have failed today, but we'll keep working.

[agleam]

[he nods.]

Yeah. No other option... That's what Clem always used to say, too.

[...]

What about you, though? What do you think of this group?

[preowned]

We are definitely a mess!

[ 100%! these bitches be fighting!! ]

But it'll be fine in the end. I believe that.

[agleam]

[he laughs despite himself, startled.]

There's... stuff that could be improved in every big group, I guess.

[preowned]

Mm. And I'm sure we won't improve in a lot of regards. Some people don't want to budge from certain things.

We'll make it work.

[agleam]

Was it like that in your last group, too?

[preowned]

... we only caught two killers in the last one.

[agleam]

Right... Shinobu mentioned something like that.

[frowning!!]

But in the end, you still brought everyone back, right?

[preowned]

We did.

But I know getting it wrong does mess with people.

[agleam]

It does, yeah. We only got it wrong twice and one of them was alright because of a role someone had, but..

[he takes a breath.]

It's always hard to watch. But here... It isn't like the people who kill are really at fault.

[preowned]

It's not. But... it turns into an issue of, if the hostage situation is truly legitimate, if we vote for someone innocent then we are just adding on another person who couldn't save theirs.
