[it makes her feel a little awkward, being looked after. she's a god. she's supposed to be looking after the others, isn't she?]
...it doesn't. I'm glad we were able to prevent someone innocent from being Erased tomorrow, but finding the person who did it won't bring Hikari back.
...there is. The chances of picking the correct team, at least for right now, are... higher than they would be if you were voting for an individual. Today, it was a one in ten chance, rather than one in thirty-nine, but...
[her ears droop.]
I worry that if people think like that too much, it will become easier for them to justify guessing at random, rather than continuing to investigate when things get difficult. We... almost ran out of time today.
It felt like that's what happened today, too - guessing at random. I know we were all thinking photokinesis, but the way everyone jumped on Yang Guifei-san...
I thought that was because of a combination of her Psych, her hair, and the fact that she had an item large enough to hit someone with...?
[the timing of it is a little blurry to her - she can't remember if people were zeroing in on yang guifei before or after rin's theory. this deeeefinitely doesn't have anything to do with me not being able to remember the timing because my brain is melting.]
I hope so. Now that we know how these trials go, we can make plans to proceed more efficiently if we have to go through one again.
Honestly, it got a little hard to follow after a while.
[ the instrument thing seemed random to him, but it's just as likely that he wasn't paying close enough attention and he knows it. sometimes you cope by tuning out. ]
You don't really expect it not to happen again, do you? I heard Ruby saying that it always does.
I think it's unlikely that it won't happen... once these things start, they're hard to stop. And we came so close to not catching her today that anyone who thinks they would be smarter about it is probably feeling emboldened right about now.
[she fiddles with the hem of her dress.]
But it would be nice if catching her made someone who was planning to do it next week reconsider. We'll still likely have to participate in trials again before the Game is over, but... the fewer of them, the better.
[ it's not that he disagrees, but... like nahida said, once it starts, it keeps going. it was the same with adonis. kazuki won't hold out hope that they'll have fewer trials. ]
We'll have some catchup to do, either way - they're probably ahead on points now.
When I talked to them last time, they sort of implied there might be hidden missions we coudl do for points, but they couldn't just tell us what they were...
[ weird word choice... but he glances at nahida's clothes and nods. ]
A member of a royal family would be used to something more detailed... They're just meant to be basics, though. Some places with decent accessories might open up later.
[she almost forgot she explained it that way because he seemed like he was really struggling with the idea of a 500 year old god help]
Even regular people in Sumeru tend to wear very elaborate clothing, though... even the simplest designs tend to have plenty of embroidery and accessories. I guess maybe it's just a difference in cultures...
I don't know much about Swedish fashion... In Japan, it's different from your clothes, but we usually wear plenty of accessories, too. I'd show you if I could.
...maybe later on we'll find other shops that have clothing more like what you're accustomed to. If we do, I'd love to learn about clothing from Japan from you.

No, it won't. [ ... ] I don't... like that it's team-based voting. It feels like there's still a lot of room to get it wrong.

...I was planning to ask them if there are other tasks we could do - besides stuff like painting the warehouses. There has to be something else.

We still need some actual furniture for the warehouse, but I think they'd understand the tradeoff, if it works out.
