[ at this point, it's the smart thing to do. even if you hope for better. ]
Nine hours, double the investigating. Kinda hope we don't have to do that again. [ ... ] At all, would be better, but if we can't have that I'd rather it didn't get doubled up.
[ i like how i was on the suspect list in a week i wasn't there, damn i could've played that up ]
It is what it is.
Unless we're spiralling and running out of time, you'll have nothing to hide. Ultimately, we're looking for answers and the truth, but there's a saying about the truth hurting.
[ luckily for everyone, i was absent last week lmao. yaywon yelling at me like aaa you weren't there. ]
A lot of people do, because of the whole confronting thing. [ he looks thoughtful. ] The truth is complicated sometimes. It's easier to focus on a lie sometimes, even if you know the truth is something different.
That's maybe more of an attitude adjustment, but... a few years ago I didn't cope with something very well. Took me a while to realise I was wrong, but I lose a lot by admitting that.

[ Her shoulders droop. ]
I enjoyed her company a lot. She even stood up for me and... I was happy that someone would do that for me.
[ Like in today's trial with Rodya. ]

We can't really say what's going to happen until tomorrow's over. But I hope you get to talk to her again, without that wall.
no subject
The trial... was such a mess.

Being on the suspect list doesn't really feel as bad as seeing other people on the list.
[ She looks at Shu, since he was also on a narrowed suspect list last week. ]
I suppose it's partly due to knowing that I was innocent, but seeing people I care about on the list made me feel more anxious.

The truth only hurts when we want to deny it.

... Is that from experience, Shu?

How do you deal with it?
no subject
Poorly, apparently.

[ Shu? Freaking out? Hasn't crossed her mind apparently. ]
no subject
[ he shrugs. ]
So I don't. Not yet at least.
no subject
[ ... ]
Even so, you're very calm about admitting that already... I wish I could have that degree of control.
no subject
It's not so hard to talk around things.

Yuri thinks that Shu tilting his head like that is a little cute. ]
As opposed to directly talking about things?

... I suppose you are that sort of person, Shu.
no subject
... Is that why you just took your shirt off so casually in front of everyone?

We were getting down to the wire, and it was just easier.

There were plenty of people stripping off.

Y-Yes, but...
