Week 4; Monday 4 PM; Hajime Hinata

[princessantly]

[ She's wondered... and she'd already resolved to mostly keep from asking others about the things she saw flash on the monitor, unless they were prepared to talk to her about it first. Which Alisha doubts, but the look she'd seen on Hinata's face...

So when she gets the chance to, she's catching him by the sleeve. ]

Hajime, do you have a minute?

It's not your fault. It was...

[He hums quietly, clearly wrestling with how he wants to put it, before just shaking his head again and glancing toward her.]

...complicated. It was complicated, what happened. I wish I could have done something to stop it. But I know that... Togami especially, he'd never want to see someone killed for his sake. He... was a better person than I could ever be, that's for sure. Really arrogant, kind of hard to talk to, but... he truly deserved his title as the Super High School Level Affluent Prodigy. If he were here... maybe things would have turned out differently.

Perhaps... but then again, no matter how many of us are determined to keep from playing this 'game', we still find ourselves repeating the process week after week.

... I wouldn't wish for anyone to be brought here.

[ Especially not one of Hinata's friends... even if he's already deceased. ]

[hopefragment]

...Yeah. You're right.

[He exhales through his nose and just rakes a hand through his hair]

Even if I think he might be able to help here, I definitely... don't want him to have to go through this. None of my classmates.

But... what about you...? For this motive, do you... want to talk about it?

[princessantly]

... Did you happen to see me on that device?
