[ he would rub a hand over his face, but he doesn't have a hand. ]
Sorry. [ ... ] I had my suspicions about Froggystyle when I started checking Haru. But I was hoping to buy more time and try to figure something else out, yeah.
Exactly that. I know...it didn't make sense when we didn't have that much time left, but I'd been hoping maybe we'd find something related to Shen Qingqiu's killer, or fully determined what happened to Fukuzawa. Something that would take the heat off of them. Anything to get more answers.
But it's another case of not getting what you want, so I'm not sure why I'm surprised it worked out that way. [ this time, the tone says he's not surprised at all. ]
Who, us and Froggystyle? It's...more like they were good to us in the very beginning. They made sure we weren't falling behind on stuff, and I'm not going to ignore something like that when a game is dangerous like this. Maybe that's stupid, but I have my loyalties, I guess.
Yeah. I didn't think we'd done anything to warrant it. They just...did it on their own. [ ... ] I don't trust people easily. That's especially true here. So I can admit it was definitely a bias on my part, but I also think I knew they wouldn't run away if other people figured it out on their own.
[ it felt inevitable that they would get caught, so jonas just did what he, personally, felt was right for him and his relationship with them at the moment.]

What did you want to happen instead?

I guess I can see that. If someone did something that nice for me, I'd probably try and cover for them too.

Thanks. I don't...expect anybody else to really think like I do or anything, but it helps when people at least bother listening.
