[He flinches at the touch, and he pulls away from it. It's more of a natural reaction to being touched than him pulling away from her specifically though, he's always been iffy about being touched.]
But I was the one at the end who said it was one of those five! And I voted for her!
...I guess let's investigate what we can for now [haha she won't be able to help] and if it doesn't seem like we're coming up with anything... maybe we should try to look at the goose hint from another angle?

It's all my fault. I shouldn't have said anything.
[He might also be trying to apologize for putting the heat on Lila, but. Yeah.

looks up at that, and reaches out to put a hand on his shoulder.]
Hey, no, that's not... there were, like, forty of us in there. You didn't make anyone vote the way they did.

...you already said you didn't do it. I can talk to Denji. Are you close to Beau or Tsuyukasa?
no subject
...but Tsuyukusa... he's harder to get a read on. I don't think it was him, either, because he has an aversion to shoes, but...
I can try to talk to them both.
no subject

no subject
[probably.]
But... what if they hurt someone again?

...I don't know. Someone probably is lying, but it doesn't sound like any of them are.

no subject
...it wasn't me either.
no subject
[a beat.]
...I kinda get the feeling you'd just say you did it if you did? Because... you'd have a reason, if you did it.
