And Kaito and Wash-nii.

No wonder he passed my vibe-check so fast. Stupid scary smart theater kid nonsense.

Sounds about right.

....the vases are deceptions for people he's closed to. Putting himself second and hiding things.

So probably not that.

The score is protective, but its also the kind where you lie to protect someone from a thing that might hurt them?

…

[ Reaches for the thermos ]

[ CHUGS ]

Mm. I think I'm leaning towards the mirror? It's hard, and it's painful, but he's using those skills to help the people depending on him ... and it's working.

[A pause.]

Its better than what I saw and those skills are useful if you can do them right.]

[AKA Leo.]

If you think its a good one, then I trust that.

I ... I think it's ... probably good? Or at least ... I hope so.

- okay.

If you're sure you don't have any ojections, we'll go with that one.

[ If he doesn't raise any, she'll go ahead and slot that one into the void, hoping against hope that she hasn't read this whole thing wrong in a way that might hurt him. ]

With the mirror inputted into the void, it closes up. There appear to be no other shards forthcoming, so best get out while the getting is good.

The rest of the floor has been cleared, so probably best to take the elevator down to S1.

You're a good judge of character, even when you don't like certain character traits.

[HE BELIEVES IN YOU.]

You think I'm a good judge of character?

[ REALLY?? ]

... [ ... Looks into the stands. Where she'd usually be, she thinks. Watching and waiting. ]

I have ... reasons, for disliking lies. Mostly things I can't get into. [ Even with Donnie. ] But regardless of my feelings on the act ...

I have faith in the actor.

Yes? You understand people really well. You translate things like Mikey can.

[Things she can't get into with him?]

[Well, that's concerning.]

[....]

[Later concerning. Sensei now.]

He is a good actor.

[ ???? LOOKING AT HIM LIKE ??? ]

[ ????????? ]

W-Well ... I try my best. Doesn't always work out though. [ Often. It often doesn't work out. ]

[ She cracks a smile though. ]

That too! But I was talking less about his acting and more about his heart. [ Taps over her own. ] It's kinda like ... when I think about how strong the people around me are, you know? They could use it to hurt me, but they wouldn't.

That's how emotions are. [Emotions are a lot and confusing.]

Oh. [He blushes a bit.] I meant....for that. The feelings part. He is a good person meaning he's a good actor.

He doesn't want to hurt us.
