[ That tells him nothing. Ayabe heaves a sigh. ]

At least you were able to get out of there— [ "alright," but Toi did not get out of there alright. He just got out of there. ]

[soba]

Barely.

[ he sounds

very frustrated about that. ]

[kazokun]

...stupid. Whatever you're thinking, I'm relieved you got out of that. There was nothing more you could have done.

[ Think of it as being fortunate. ]

[soba]

[ hnnn... he can argue, but he chooses not to. ]

I'll try not to get in a situation like that again.

[kazokun]

You'd better not. I wonder why they chose you. Or was it your choice?

[ It doesn't feel like it. But there was also Michiru walking out of the house to exact her revenge the week prior. ]

[soba]

It was random, apparently.

[ he sounds..... annoyed. ]

But last week I remember Peach told Kaioh she could do it.

[kazokun]

[ Ayabe looks rather uncomfortable about that, although Michiru was justified in wanting to be the one to do it. Nobody here wanted to kill Asch— maybe normally they would've jumped on the chance to beat his ass, but not for this, not to kill when it wasn't his fault. ]

That's not fair at all. But to ask somebody else to pull the trigger, somebody who's used to it, would that be any fairer?

[ Who here is used to killing and wouldn't mind doing it? Nobody should be used to killing, that's the fundamental problem there. ]

[soba]

... no. But they probably wouldn't agree with you.

[ life is a lot different afterwards. ]

People like to protect each other. Like you said, right?

[kazokun]

It's what I believe. What I hope is true.

[ But who knows, there's people out here who would kill over the smallest thing. I still can't believe Melt didn't murder Nia last week. ]

[soba]

Then if it's true, they'd still want to do it.

Even if it might not be fair.

[kazokun]

[ He wants to be that person who would take the bullet for everybody else so nobody has to shoot one of their friends, but realistically, in Toi's shoes, he would have started crying and Asche would have killed him, so.

Hm. ]

There's no use thinking about it. Ideally... we won't have that situation ever again. I should leave and let you rest.

[soba]

[ ideally... yes, but unless they figure out a way out of here before the week ends, they're most likely going to end up doing that again.

but at least toi doesn't say this out loud. ]

Mm. See you.

[kazokun]

See you. I'll check up on you later.
