This murderer did a poor job, all it's done is stump those around us.

( hope is important to him, it's his way of life to see those around him move forward. to grow, to become something more than what they were at first. the first murder brought them together, and now everyone here seems defeated that it leaves a sour taste in his mouth. death can bring hope, he already knows that besides... the hope nanami chiaki brought when she died also existed.

he doesn't think he can ever agree that death doesn't bring hope. )

...I'm tired. ( he wanted to say something along the lines that he would do something to push their hopes. do something that would make them not as tired, but more engaging to what's going on, but... his own thoughts are plagued by his luck. they'll die anyway because of him, so it almost feels like what's the point? )

Finding the culprit will probably help them, but you're doing what you can... that's kind of you... ah, have you checked on Ebalon-kun, a long time ago I asked you to make friends with him... you should make sure if he's okay, things like this... he blames himself.

( is he sending nanami to check on him? he sure is. )
