To be honest, not even I'm sure what happened. I was fighting with the your mother for the scepter and then... mm. I'm sure she used some sort of spell on me.
[ and when he came back to his senses, what he had was a scepter covered in black blood and...
he takes a sip of his tea, looking as if he's embarrassed with himself. ]
It felt like something within me snapped. I know what I'm capable of, but even then... that was too much. I didn't like it, even now.
She likely did- she had a lot of tricky spells to disrupt your thoughts.
( she doesn't really remember the final battle very much, though she thinks she tried to help as best she could for a broken puppet, but she remembers her multiple escape attempts. )
I wish you hadn't had to have experienced that. I hope... that this week can be peaceful, for both our sakes.
[ he smiles at her, giving her a small nod. he doesn't know that he's going to be sent to dangan rompa land, but it seems he's at least handling that a bit better than these two last hells.
he sits down at the edge of the bed, taking a sip from the mug. ]
... After my own palace, I felt... light. Like something heavy was finally gone. And I think it's still there... but right now, after all of that, it just hurts. Atem's, I mean. It was confusing, and then overwhelming, and I'm still not sure what happened sometimes...
I know I got off easy, but I was terrified for all of you, and even though I know you're all okay, it's still... hard to think about.

[ soujuurou hums, shifting on the bed to sit cross-legged, back straight. ]
I can’t imagine how it must have felt to watch that happen to us. Honestly, when I was trapped I… felt like I was going to die again. Senses can fool you really easily, you know? I knew I was in the palace, but all I could see, feel, hear, and smell was…
[ soujuurou’s gaze darkens as he remembers that sensation, that desperation and pain. even now, he feels the sting of the claws and fangs ripping through him.
he takes a sip of his tea. ]
I’m sorry for being one of the ones that worried you like that.
I'm guessing it's because we lost at a game. He said we would have to play a penalty game if we lost. [ he shrugs. who knew that penalty games could be so merciless? maybe he and alice could have a chat.
but there's not much time to ponder about that, as mafuyu's question leaves him confused. ]
Why would it be bad for me to be there with you?
[ beyond his difficulty comprehending things like good or evil, the question simply doesn't make sense to soujuurou when the answer is right there in front of him. ]
Isn't this job all about making bonds? So it only makes sense that we would want help from our friends in tough situations. I don't think anyone could have solved one of these things on their own-- it's just too much.
I feel bad for it because it means that you suffered and I was still partially relieved for it. You shouldn't have had to go through any of that. No one should have, I know, but...

( with some silence, she takes a sip of tea. it's akin to just drinking hot water, yes, but the warmth is welcome still. )
It was still sourced from me, and it hurt you. Maybe it doesn't make sense, but it's how I feel.

... I wish I could have helped everyone. When I tried to use Energy Shower, he stopped me. That's why we were fighting.
( that, and she had a feeling he wouldn't listen to anyone if he was still strong enough to fight. )
I'm sorry that you had to experience either of the palaces. But... at the same time, I'm glad that you were with me or there to save me. Is that bad?
( wait fuck he is so the wrong person to ask- )
