[But Sora was really upset about Pikachu, wasn't he? Of course he was - it was upsetting, and Pikachu was very kind, but Sora seemed especially upset.]
[...yes and no. but it's complicated and mob's a good kid, so it doesn't seem fair to tell him to beat it. also if he's honest with himself he actually hates being by himself, so.]
No, it's okay. Pretty sure the river's big enough for both of us, don't you? [it's kind of like teasing but half-hearted at best.] Besides...all of us have a lot to think about now.
[Look, he can't help him with the repressed emotions? He really, really can't, considering how disconnected he is with his own feelings. But maybe he at least can help by not having much in the way of emotional expectations? ]
Like a place that's at war or something? Maybe...he did know what he was doing in that fight. So it's not like he's new to combat. And Hajime wouldn't have suspected anything at all either.
[it unfortunately make sense.] ...how many more people do you think come from worlds like that?
Yeah...we can teach them, maybe. [hopefully.] I know we said we wouldn't be mad if someone was hiding the truth, but this feels different. What Virid did wasn't an accident. But maybe there's something more we can do to stop this from happening again.
No. [it's said immediately because it's not like he hasn't thought the same.] I want to understand him, too. See what he's thinking and try to realize why he felt like he really had to do this at all. Maybe if we did we could prevent someone else from doing the same in the future.
Me either. [thinking, thinking...] If he's alone, maybe he'll be easier to talk to and understand. If we show him we just want to help him, that has to work.
[what if they just aggressively friendship the murderer?]
Yeah. Even if he won't listen right away, if we tell him at least he'll know. He must have a reason that he chose to do something like this. I don't agree with him not telling us sooner, but I think I can understand why.
And if more people try to understand him, maybe we'll be able to put together the pieces we need for a better picture. [teamwork...makes the dream work..]
We will. [...but.] But don't forget to take some time for yourself, too. It's harder to understand other people when you don't have time to understand yourself.
[and your own feelings about things that have happened. it's real rich that he's the one saying this when he was busy cradling a dead electric mouse but you know. as you do.]

Did you want to be alone here?

No, it's okay. Pretty sure the river's big enough for both of us, don't you? [it's kind of like teasing but half-hearted at best.] Besides...all of us have a lot to think about now.

When I'm sad, it's harder to talk to people sometimes. That's why I asked.
no subject
Oh. [hm.] ...I think I would be sad with or without people, but I don't mind being with them. If that makes sense at all.

Every person is different, so it does make sense.

[But he's been thinking about it a lot, trying to understand what happened with Virid.]
Cervantes-san said he might come from a place where he wasn't taught not to hurt others.
[And that answer resonated with him, for reasons.]

[Helpful.]
But if others are from places like that, then they just need to learn.

It isn't as easy as that. Two people got hurt who shouldn't have been. But I still want to understand Viridian-san, too. Is that strange?

You're right. Unless we tell him, he won't realize.

Mm. Let's do that.
