...we'll reconvene then and discuss. I don't know how free you're able to be with information after the fact, but it'll help to know as much of what happened as possible.
[ that's the first thing after all this shittiness that gets a huff of good humor from ichiro, a little gently scolding. ]
You need to eat here, too, Manwol-san. [ ma'am! ] ...but, yeah. I can cook something. ... I'll bring extra fish for Streusel, too.
[ there's not much he can do, but... taking care of others comes easy. ] ...did you have any other questions, Lucretia-san? I know, it's a lot.

We'll all just have to make sure of that. Saturday's going to be long, you can't go into it at a disadvantage.
[ichiro gets a little hair ruffle, there.
but:]
I do have one or two more, I guess, I-- have you told anyone else who isn't working with you now, and if so, how much do they know? And... well, I'll admit I'm curious as to how restricted you are in admitting to it.

[ ah... Don't be childish. that thought seems to be directed at herself. lux shakes her head. ]
... We cannot speak of any of it. We cannot tell people that we are trying to work to their benefit, we cannot explain the assimilation, and we cannot explain the necessity of our actions. All of it must remain between us.
[ ......... that said. ]
At the very least, Caleb, Ichinose, Lalli, and Yamato all seem to know. I'm sure there are more, but I can't very well check.

[ he nods at all of what lux says. ]
...Some people have arrived at the correct conclusions on their own. Maya, Beau, and Nier had a conversation last week where they effectively figured us out, for one.
But it's important that we do not confirm these theories, or tell anyone what we know as fact. Even when people ask us for our personal thoughts on the motivations of people like Byleth or Otome, we tend to err on the side of caution.

[ he nods along with the others, and - oh, ducks his head a little at the hair ruffle. aw, jeez, in like the most affectionate way possible. ]
I was the last one, before you, Lucretia-san. [ There was no way I was going to leave them all hanging. ]
Kon got it, and Taichi probably has, too. The message from the dead helped - I think people are catching on, at least.

Based on what we've discussed-- I don't think Sagihara is going to be very surprised it's you, either.
[so, you know, fair warning on that one.]
But I won't be confirming anything.

At this point there are very few names you could give that would surprise me. It's an unpleasant reputation to have.
[ But not an unfair one. ]

[Manwol frowns,]
It's not something you asked for. [If it weren't for you then how much worse off would we all be?] But yes, no one else knows about Dimitri or me -- and Ichiro, of course. I helped kill Leo, but...
[she looks away]
Well, I did my best to cover my tracks then. And we were all distracted by Otome's death, so.

If they did, I think we'd have a pretty big problem on our hands.
[I doubt they'll end up suspecting, anyway. it feels like a breach of the trust anyone else has in her, but--
some things have to be done.]
...who else dies will factor in to all of this. Like you said-- Otome's death was distracting, but I think Sagihara's will be, too.

[ lux has nothing more to say on this, and just nods with understanding. ]
[Who else dies, huh... It's not something Manwol wants to ruminate on, but she does anyway. It's a little like they've all been doing week after week. Who will it be this time? Who will die next?
Joining the others in this hasn't helped settle these fears any less. Knowing Sakyou will die this week makes it feel worse.]
You'll get to meet our source later too -- probably on Friday. They don't seem to know much more than us, but they've been here since all of this -- [she gestures vaguely to their little group] started.
