[OVER HE WILL ROAM... He perches nearby, giving the blood pool a little glance before his attention refocuses.]
...I'm sorry you had to go through that.
[The killers all got together and their mental health collectively improved 100% but then Wen Ning had to suffer through them casually discussing whether or not to off his boyfriend so, y'know.]
[THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN LITERALLY 50% OF THE MAFIA TEAM IS THOTS AND ALSO ALL THE REMAINING PURPLES ARE BELOVED or just a pain in the ass to kill.
In any case, he can understand how Wen Ning would come to a conclusion like this. Junpei's team does have an edge, unfortunately... It's not about numbers alone, here. And he can't deny that he'd swerve most of the remaining purples, for this or that reason. Still--]
After all the time the three of you spent together, going through this all, do you really think either Junpei or Veronica would let the two left behind just stay here?
[He reaches out for Wen Ning's arm, gently patting it.]
...Don't count anyone out even in a "losing" scenario, anyway. After all - we lost badly on that boat, and we're here right now, aren't we?
...they have their own to save. I couldn't ask them to. And there's still-- you. Anaido. Beau. The others from the island, and Sect Leader Nie-- Jin Ling was in one, too.
[it'd be hard to take a place over any of them.]
But if you and Anaido, at least, don't get saved, then I'd... stay too.
I hope that you're right and we don't have to worry, but...
[He is forcibly not thinking of how he has too many loved ones to have ever been able to handle the win condition even if Wen Ning's team did end up victorious, so he just. Skirts right along.]
You wouldn't have to ask them to, I don't think. [But the rest of his team, haha. The rest of everyone! From home! Their friends from other games! It's a terrible, lose-lose situation all around.
Anyway he's unfortunately now aware of the fact that there are thousands of timelines with thousands of versions of themselves in existence at once so he's not particularly worried about it being The End Forever even if they in particular get stuck in summer camp hell for eternity. But he sure doesn't want it, even so.]
...There's not much we can do about it one way or another at this point, is all.

[he shakes his head, carefully, so he doesn't disrupt the stitching job on his neck.]
I thought for a while I might be okay, but I didn't really consider... how much of an advantage he always had over us. Especially now.
[it's. pretty obvious his team and blue will lose more of their own, just because after dimitri is killed, they'll never touch purple.]
So if we can't make something work, I think... this is it for me, isn't it?
