This game, this everything is bullshit. And I hate it. I feel dumb next to everyone else. Like it's you guys, and then maybe me and Ryuji just playing catch up.
I won't disagree - everything about this is absurd, and it seems designed to throw everyone into confusion and despair.
Before you start thinking, you and your friend aren't useless. We all have different expertise, and then we have a lot of unspoken rules and hurdles we're trying to figure out here...
You're the first one that came up with the idea of writing in the book... painful as it was, it did give us new leads.
I'm actually a pretty blunt man by nature, having to work in a bureaucracy had forced me to pick up some tact to survive. While you have to admit he is not exactly the brightest spark, he does seem to have an uncanny 'danger sense'.
Hmm... Servants are an eccentric lot, and anyone who is capable of forming contracts with us tend to be highly unusual people. I admit, I am a bit more orderly than most because of my nature as a detective.
No, not quite like that. We are more like... familiars, but far more complex and powerful in how we function, and have been fully realized beings rather than fragments... for the most part.
Desperation, and I would not be surprised to know if there were other pressures being put out in order to coax a killing.

Much as I believe our group do have good intentions, the False Ms. Yuuko knows enough about us, that there is a crack to be exploited. It's never comforting to know that this is something we have to keep on guard while we're unraveling the mysteries on this island.
Killing in situations other than self-defense or defending other is an anathema to me. Keep that desire to not kill in mind, to help stave off what wiles the witch may attempt.

Honestly, I'm glad. If that meant it saved rotations of sleeping with the book, then that's good, right?
[she looks a little nervous as she says that, but at least she's looking up.]
Anyway, for whatever good it is... Ryuji's good at running and jumping, and I'm a good distraction... That counts for something.

This would be the kind of place where different eyes and experiences would help.

And I dunno, I haven't talked to him. But now I'm gonna.

But I also never expected that you would belong to a group of ragamuffins. You seem so... formal!

So... I formed a contract with Hecate. Are you sort of like what would happen if she were separate from me?

No, not quite like that. We are more like... familiars, but far more complex and powerful in how we function, and have been fully realized beings rather than fragments... for the most part.

Which... brings up my next question. Do you think Erika was targeted because she bragged about being a detective?

This is fucking stupid! Why is anyone killing anyone? How does that help us get out of here?!
[she stands up and places her hands on her hips.]
I get not being suspicious of anyone but I hate that it's in the back of my mind now.

But I realized.. he was never worth it. And now I can't even think of something that would push me to the edge like that again.
