Shiks has something of mine. It might come up tomorrow. I'm just letting you know now, so you don't think I'm hiding anything from you if it's a surprise.
[and senri will tug on the right lapel of his uniform jacket - there's an empty spot where he used to have a heart pin. but since he gave it away to shiki, he started swapping the order of his accessories to just make it look like he was fickle.]
She gave me one too. We traded, because we made a promise to win.
We'll find them—even if just for the safety of the group. If someone's going after the other participants, it's best to deal with them immediately, before they get the chance to do it again.
[lived in an orphanage. so there are two options here. the first is that the reason there's an orphanage is because people were sent off to their deaths on a regular basis.
the other is -
doesn't ray have a tattoo?
and you can sort of see how it
slowly dawns on senri in the most horrifying way possible]
... It's not something I'll ever be able to empathize with, but it isn't necessarily a bad thing. You just have to figure out how to turn it into a strength.
[he thought emma's kindness was stupid, once. then he realized that he might've been the idiot all along. now, they've figured out how to make it work for them.]
Being soft-hearted makes me harmless, and making people happy is a strength. It's what I'm good at. People talk more when they're happier, so in this case I'm making it into an information game. Maybe if people like me, they'll hesitate to kill me too.
[ . . . he doesn't like talking about it so callously though. he just shrugs and shakes his head.]
I hate thinking about it like that, though. But if that's what it takes to figure out a way to get the least amount of people hurt, I'll deal with it.

What is it?
no subject
How come you're so prepared to talk about things like this? You said you're used to it - but I don't get why.
[he's just so - young.]
no subject
I don't really mind answering, but you're probably not going to like it. Though it's probably kind of obvious, anyway.
no subject
[his brow furrows]
But it's been bugging me, so I wanted to know.
no subject
Not much to say about it. Where I'm from, the people around me were sent to their deaths regularly. I grew up knowing it was happening.
So, you could say I'm pretty acquainted with the idea of people dying. That's it.

What's that look for?

[and he'll shake his head. he definitely still looks surprised and haunted but.]
... sorry for not being more mindful, Ray-kun. I guess you've just had to think about a lot of stuff that I haven't.

Just something I guess I should've thought about. A lot of people here come from really different things than I've ever had to experience.
This week is... really a wake up call for that.

You really are soft-hearted, aren't you?
[to be worrying about something like that right now, of all times.]
no subject
Save calling me an idiot over that for another day, please.
[because he's heard it a lot lately. that his kindness is stupid. well what's he supposed to do about it right now, huh....]

I guess that was probably meant to be reassuring, huh, Ray-kun?
Well, I'm not at a top academy for nothing. And if I don't get it together, it'll just put the people around me in a worse position anyway.
no subject
[a pause]
Well, if all else fails, you can try using that Takaomi guy as your wits.
[he figures senri will probably hate that, which is exactly why he said it.]
