[WHAT THE FCK YOU'RE WEARING MINE DON'T JUST LAUGH IN THIS TONE]
No, [but it's more like he's trying to reassure himself.] I didn't want him to be hurt. I asked them not to hurt him. But he said it was okay, so I agreed.
Anyway he'll just be mean and point out the obvious here.]
Of course; you're a bleeding heart. But because you're like that, you're going to feel guilty about it anyway. No matter how you explain it away, even if you think about how much worse things could have been if you guessed wrong, that heart of yours will hold onto the idea "if I didn't agree, he wouldn't have been hurt".
By comparison, Scaramouche just seems the same even-keeled sort of vague amusement that he's been since they started talking about Ryo shooting people for fun and profit.]
That's a bold thing to say in a place like this.
[Where people are literally taking lives into their own hands. IT'S NOT EVEN THURSDAY YET BUT THEY ALREADY KNOW, LISTEN.]
[Just "hm". BUT WITH ABSOLUTELY NOTHING OF VALUE DONE OR ACCOMPLISHED he just turns back toward the door.]
Well, that's more or less what I've heard from the others. Unless there are any other crucial details, I'll be taking my leave. I assume Ryo will be here tonight.
[He just gives Akira a bit of a LOOK at that... But he does think Ryo is tolerable so hilariously that's not a bad offer.]
I know and I don't particularly care. [Said with a little shrug.] People are going to be idiots regardless; I'd rather not spend an hour stuck around them.

I wouldn't have let that happen.
[He did not have much real control over the first one exactly, but whatever.]
no subject
He just laughs misanthropically.]
You already let it happen once.

Even if I didn't agree, he could have still been hurt because of the place we where in. If we guessed wrong, he'd have been hurt worse.
He lost an eye, but he'll live. Maybe he'll understand what it's like to have your life in someone else's hands.

I don't agree with it, but there isn't anything I can do to change it.

no subject
If he’ll come in, yeah. Where are you going?
no subject
Somewhere without other people, hopefully.
no subject
[He knows staying with him alone probably won’t be accepted.]
If you’re alone, people will look at you harder if what happened last week happens again.

no subject
There has to be at least one person you don’t think that about, so stay with them.
no subject
[AND HE TURNS TO LEAVE. The hilarity being that he ends up stuck with five people anyway help.]
