Prim, Fox, and Mars were there to see the memory and A's reaction to it--he announced it to everyone and was going to kill himself.
[looking a little pained because it was a really. distressing time.]
But you know my backstory? How a guy framed me just because he could? That guy isn't only running for Prime Minister but he's also A's father. And he had A so twisted up...
[hands are going to curl into fists because HE FUCKING. HATES SHIDO. SO GODDAMN MUCH.]
So no. I don't forgive him for it. And I don't forgive him working with Shido on what to do with my friends, after. I just... understand the situation for him.
... Joker, I don't know any of that. I just know the flashes I've seen in my memories, and the ones I've seen from Prim and Fox-- neither of which are that complicated.
[well, as uncomplicated as being phantom thieves can be? But she leans back, and twirls a strand of hair around her finger.]
I don't understand all of it. I want to, but... Maybe it would be best to work back to the beginning for me? I know you're important to me, and that if A did hurt you, I should be upset... But I only know what you tell me.
... If you're being honest, then I'll be understanding for A, too.
but he does seem to lean back in his seat, taking that in.]
... it's all a matter of perspective, huh.
Either way, I'll leave it to you on how you want to approach A, but I'll answer any question you might have about the situation. Here or back home. Clear up confusion.
... not very much outside of... there was a memory where we were all hanging out at a school fair, but that was mostly us being worried about A being around as a celebrity detective and trying to keep a low profile so the cops wouldn't suspect us.
Though that one does have the fun moment of A eating a spicy takoyaki and not handling it. Apparently, your class spent more time and money on the maid uniforms than the food.
[looking amused at this because lol yep.]
There was also the thing with Kamoshida. It's a long memory of us going through his gross heart, defeating his shadow, and stealing the distortion in his heart so we could get him to confess to the abuse he'd been making kids at our school suffer. You made the call on that. There was the option to kill his shadow but... that would have killed him. You decided you wanted him to feel the weight of his crimes, and Ryuji, Morgana, and me supported that.
You picked out your own code name at the start of it. Based it around your metaverse outfit--the outfit we get after our Personas awaken. Yours was... a red catsuit. So you went with Panther. And your Persona was called Carmen. She, ah... well, you both showed a tendency to really enjoy putting the boot to people. And your chosen weapon was a whip.
[not sure what kind of picture this is painting but also... YEAH IT KINDA SAYS A LOT ABOUT THINGS, HUH]
My Persona was Arsene, a fictional gentleman thief that did a lot of robbing the rich and being good to the poor kinda stuff. So it fits being on Bad End.

[she's a little confused.]
A was at the meeting. Does that mean you've decided to forgive him...?
no subject
Not forgive. His situation was... complicated.
And I've killed him more than once in this place.

And I'm not expecting you to know the situation. That's why I'm telling you this now. It's a lot and it's fragmented.
All I'm saying is that... for me, I've gotten my anger toward him out of my system. But if you guys ever need to... I won't get in the way of it.
And if you do want me to go over all of it, I will.

My teammate has eaten people, and she might do it again any time we lose. There are other people who are fighting over darker impulses here, y'know?
If I ignore that just in this case, it'd be hypocritical to tell them to try and be better. What is the point of trying to not devolve here, y'know?
If A is putting forward the effort... I'm going to try, too.

I'll work things out with A on my own but... this feels more important to you and me.

But I'm glad to know, even there, I wasn't the kind of person that wanted to kill others. Hey, Boss?
Thanks for telling me that.
