I hate how we keep not finding things until the last minute.
I know. But we do have so little time. It's - it's something that has been reiterated to me many times. It is not enough time to be assured in solving it.
I don't think there can be much surprise about this outcome. It may have happened this way even if we'd found the culprits in time. But it is frustrating.
Maybe this is bad, but it... doesn't really bother me much that we voted that guy out. I feel bad that we didn't really get justice for Marie, or figure out what happened with the other case, but...
I don't think it's bad. [she sighs heavily.] People here who murder out of their own free will are in a different category to those who were possessed by shadows. We're deluding ourselves if we ignore that.
[ he's also still mad about hua cheng lecturing him at the meeting last week, and that has a non-zero influence on these feelings, but he'll keep that part to himself. ]
Even if the circumstances were bad, he still chose to kill someone for some stupid revenge. That's the kind of crime I'd prosecute back home.
...It was still a cruel thing. To look at Sylvain, who had done something he had no control over and was not aware of, and to decide 'I can tolerate this death.'
[ it was jarring to find that out about sylvain this way, and, selfishly, he can't help feeling a little hurt by it. but as long as it was a shadow, it wasn't his fault... and even if sheila hadn't come back after her execution, she wasn't any less guilty than he was, so it wasn't like with diluc and bucky. ]
I don't know, honestly. But the rumor it had been Sylvain was circulating during the week prior to his death. Yuri brought it to my attention. I didn't know whether the rumor was correct until trial.
