[ that’s the sweetest thing she’s ever heard. ]
I need to break our bond first, because, right now, pain inflicted on her is... I can feel it too. I’m pretty sure that’s what drove my monster self to attack you, because hurting her was hurting me and that was confusing and scary.
...no. I planned to try to reach out to her though, because *everything*, so maybe I can try to convince her this isn’t in any way, shape, or form beneficial to her.
[ she reaches for his hand. ] I will. [ sighs. ] ...you know, if this didn’t, like, completely blow up in my face and the ability worked as intended in games like that I’d be the perfect protector.
Good afternoon, and thank you for getting back to me so promptly.
Sure, that sounds nice. I actually brought a little something to congratulate you and yours on the engagement. [ she lifts up a small box containing a cake... though it’s not nearly as perfect. ]
[ she takes a seat and gingerly crosses one leg over the other while folding her hands in her lap. ]
I’m here on behalf of the Liars, because I was informed that you and a few other idols killed Exael. All they want to know is why and how, since the who and where are already ‘known’, aaaand I’m not so sure what applies.
[Eichi laughs at that, throwing his head back with delight.]
The Liars are taking recruits now too, eh? Hate to tell you this, but I have no answers for you. It is not the place of a sword to know why it is slicing someone, it is simply a tool in the hands of another.
And I don't know how. I traveled as I was travelling through normally, but suddenly I'd found my target. My associates were with me by chance.
Iiiits something like that. [ she cracks a smile. ] I’m just a messenger, honestly, looking for answers to pass along to those with questions. So you were asked to take her out then, I suppose that says something.
How lucky though! I’m kind of surprised she was just hanging out in the hotel, but I guess being in the thick of it comes with the host territory.
