[hikari doesn't take issue with buzen joining him, at least.]
My heart hurts for everyone—Hot Mess for the decision they must face, and the others for any guilt they may place on their own shoulders.
Though truthfully, any outcome would have been a sad one. I am no stranger to vengeance, and I don't begrudge anyone else for it, but as selfish as this may be of me, I cannot bring myself to feel much satisfaction in a "correct" vote.
It's a pretty messed up system, right? Especially knowing that some people here just - get the call to erase, so they wouldn't even be doing it of their own volition. But of course we're all trying to survive.
It's like... having to face the different shades of sadness, but nothing is gonna feel good.
Well, my perception may be somewhat skewed. Unlike everyone else, I've never had to endure the trials directly, or believe that any fallen friends here are lost to nothingness. [w0 victim benefits (?).] And though I don't approve of Yang Guifei's actions that night, I can acknowledge that my own foolishness got me erased.

Though our hands are somewhat tied, and the lack of action most days is frustrating, all we can do is move forward. That is another reason that I cannot bring myself to hold any grudges—ultimately, nothing lies at the end of a path defined by hate alone.

Buzen? Apologies, did you need this space?

Ah, no, maybe I'm the one who should apologize. Sorry, am I interrupting your focus?

I don't know. I just wanted to check on how everyone's doing after today. It was... pretty rough, seeing how it all played out.

I know that we haven't exactly been given a choice on where we want to be... but it's a weird position.
