BUT… yeah. Yeah. Honestly, he kind of feels the same way, which sucks. He’s not an inherently mistrustful person, but he is cautious, and he knows people are capable of concealing their true intentions.]
I believe there was more to Kaoruko’s actions than a simple choice of violence. But I do not know where to begin.
[That is, he’d like to start looking into something, but… he doesn’t really have anything solid to work from.]
[YEAH. YEAH!!!! He looks tired. He is tired. He wants to go home.
Though, for all that—]
I am doubtful that is the whole truth. Others spoke with her, and it seems she told no one why she chose to kill. [Because surely??? Murder couldn’t have been the first choice???? He’s not naive enough to believe that ~nobody could ever be that fuckin murderous and nuts~ or anything, but it just seems… odd. The whole situation doesn’t fit together properly, to him.]
[yeah, Catra is of the same mind. it seems. . . very strange. out of place. sudden and inexplicable]
Yeah. Finding someone annoying is kind of a lame reason to decide to kill them. Not that I don't think anyone is capable of doing that, but. . . someone like her?

[Meaning, if they're lucky, Kaoruko was a fluke and they won't need to argue about strip check ever again anyway.

I don't think we'll be that lucky, though.

[that gets her to pause, before she asks, genuinely curious]
Did you talk to her after the trial?
no subject
I did.
no subject
What did she say? About why she-- you know.
[killed Hiyori]

Also he just. Stares into the void for a moment, radiating exasperation.]
She claimed he was annoying.
