Of course I'm mad at him, it never needed to be that bad-- he just had to say something. I know what she wanted, but we know what has to happen too, y'know?
Yeah. [ to all of this. he does agree with it, is the thing. ] I can't feel too mad because today's the most I ever spoke to the guy, but I do find it frustrating that we all know how this goes and we've been talking about it for weeks. How the afflicted need to be taken out to save them, more or less. If it was self defense, it's...I don't know. Is it wrong to say it was selfish to keep that to himself up until the point of no return?
[turning away from the window, toward shoma, properly facing him.]
We know what has to happen, and thinking it was both of 'em is why we didn't pick her. So-- now he's going to be up, and she still has to die unless someone's got a miracle in their pocket, and we're most likely losing them both.
It didn't matter last week, I don't care that whoever it was stayed quiet, but it did now.
I still voted for her. [ he will just outright admit it. ] I...don't get me wrong. Rosamund's been nothing but kind to me the entire time I've known her, but that's exactly the reason I didn't want to let her keep living like this. I know it's ripping the choice out of her hands, but the choice was taken from her days ago, before any of us even got involved. Voting for someone afflicted is the same as giving the choice back. Or that's how I see it.
...it mattered this time, and things still didn't work the way they should have because people were uncertain.
I normally would have voted the way you did. [ because of. his own feelings about choices, but besides the fact he wasn't entirely confident bradley was affected after all: ] I had a conversation with Shouxue when we got to see all of them that I've been thinking about. "It would have been crueler to leave someone affected alive, trapped with something that made them less like themself. You may save a life, but would you be saving a person?"
That's what she said, and it's how I've been thinking about this, too.
Good. I doubt any of us blame her, but...it'd probably be good for her to see that. [ ... ] In spite of that though, I'm sorry about Diluc. It's...gonna be harder without him.
Dude, it might also benefit her honestly. [ he is in fact worried about yuri. but what else is new? ] And Rodya could come to yours but...[ he waves a hand. ] I don't know. We're...getting to the point in this tour where we really have to find the people we're most comfortable with and stay close, I think. No matter the circumstances.

...I picked him. When he didn't say anything, I figured he really was affected, and that it was both of 'em who were. So if it was both...
I wanted her to get to decide for herself.

Can't really blame you for that, Shoma.
