[That's completely valid yeah. Yasusada nods.]

...When he found me on the roof, it was like he couldn't understand why I was upset. When I said Itsuki and Clarte, he said... "We're so close to figuring out what's wrong, and then we can bring them all back like it never happened, so there's no reason to be sad."

[Which is kind of a fucked up thing to say!!! Especially to Yasusada, who'd been close to both the victims. Danny was never going to win any awards for tact, but that was a lot even for him.]

He had Amber this week too. [The gum from his thermos didn't have a specified color so jury's out on whether it was actually the Amber one or whether it was some kind of canon power, but, y'know. For Yasusada last night, it was enough.]

Mm.

[Plus, they'd just had a conversation the week before about not really knowing what to do with their information, so. The sudden shift was very obvious.]

You think it was something from his home? Not the Amber gumball?

Oh, right... I did know a little. [He just forgot about it because a thousand other things have happened since then.] But then--if it wasn't mind control, what was it?

[Oh...

...Well that just means that Danny essentially killed himself to kill Itsuki, which makes the whole thing even more disturbing and depressing than before. But it's true that it's a little less fucked up than what they thought, especially with the book involved.]


These refractions really are powerful, aren't they.

[To make someone believe that that's the best choice--it's a lot.]
aitou: (Oh let's go back to the start)

[personal profile] aitou 2022-04-05 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[Ugh.]

We know what started all of this, but not why certain people refract, and when. If we knew that, maybe we could do something to stop it from happening.

I don't know either. But it feels like we're running out of time. So... if nothing seems like it's changing within a couple of days, we'll probably try and figure out some kind of move to make.

[Fortunately endgame week is happening so he doesn't have to, but at the timing of this conversation, he's simply at the end of his patience.]
