[ he figures others might feel the same, especially the adults
although she's the first one he actually believes might actually mean it ]
I talked to Plum. She said it was a random choice-- which didn't actually help, but at least I know I didn't get some shitty punishment for something. So next week we might have to see a dog kill someone, or something.
[ What he said shouldn't make her want to laugh, but it does. She hides her smile behind her sleeve. ]
Out of everyone here... you're one of the least offensive. [ In her weird tiers of criteria, anyway. ] If the dog had to do it, I think we'd have a bigger problem.
Plum also told me they cremated the dead so the contamination won't spread.
Good to know they're not in that graveyard then...
Asch turned into that because he was infected by the killer, but if we vote incorrectly again they might still turn into something like that regardless. So it's definitely safe to assume we can get it other ways then.
[ ... after the trial on saturday, toi wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people are highly suspicious of her. even besides what occurred at the very end, when people were rushing to see if she did it in order to save asch, she had said some things that gave quite a few people some pause.
but. despite all of that, toi thinks that she's a good person. so he smiles, even if it's only a little. ]
[ Meltryllis isn't a good person. She's only better to people she starts to like, and she'll never admit it to Toi that she's coming to like him (that she already does). ]
Hmph. Get some rest. Tomorrow won't greet anyone kindly.
[ Whatever the new week holds, Meltryllis is sure she won't like it. ]

Would you have preferred to have to face off against the true guilty party?

I would have definitely died then. They probably would have been able to transform more fully or something.
no subject
You could surprise yourself.
[ ... ]
If I could have, I would have done it for you.

[ So. They are in the graveyard. Probably? ]
No matter what, some kind of monster has to take form and be killed? That's disgraceful.

[ and the goal is probably not to fuck up a trial again ]

She nods. ]
Next time, we'll do better.
[ That's easier said than done, but there's no other choice. Not that she wants to pick another choice. ]

[ HE IS
NOT DISCOUNTING THAT POSSIBILITY ]
But... we'll do something, I guess.

She agrees with him, but. ]
Have some confidence in yourself.
[ Not the others. But she... believes in him a little. ]
no subject
[ honestly that's fair because
he is not too confident about the others either. ]

[ That's about as close as Meltryllis can get to saying she has faith in him without outright saying it. ]
