...on the island, she mentioned that it might be able to be used to protect someone if you bound their spirit to it with a hair.
[she says, like this is totally normal. maybe it is? it's apparently normal enough to be given as a gift?? even if there was a little mix-up with the type of doll it is.]
Perhaps, if you return it to her once you see her again, you could complete the ritual together so it would work...?
Did she? [there's a wry sort of expression that says he's a little surprised but also "why are you like this, akane?"] She knew more about these things than I ever did.
But...if she gave it to you, she must've thought you needed it more than she did. You have people to protect too, don't you?
Fair enough. He's been worried about all of you, and she was looking forward to being able to trust you enough with her secret. So...guess I had no reason to keep lying to you either.
[she didn't mean to make wen ning worry... ... ...although a lot of her Everything has been worrying since she came here.
sometimes life just be like that.]
Well - I am glad that you decided to trust me, as well. I would not have blamed you had you chosen not to. [given, y'know, what they both know her role is. but they've talked about that before.]
I know it is. But... you did not ask for any of this, either.
[and he's only human. someday, she might strike down someone he cares about - and how could she ever blame him if he wasn't upset with her for it? it being the nature of the game wouldn't make it hurt any less.]
...I suppose mostly I wish we could have met any other way. It would be nice to be able to be friends with out all of this [murder] hanging over us.
Yeah...no, I agree with you. But it's just all the more reason to try to find a way to end this game sooner, right? Then all we have is time to get to know each other better before we go home. Or at least I hope so.

Who introduced themselves to your first, Winter or Shadows?
no subject
Veronica did. But I knew Wen Ning from the island, so I suppose if we are being literal he did.
