[ hey man, she specified it wasn't useful information. ]
If she had done a better job, do you think she could have gotten away with it? If she hadn't broken down and made herself look suspicious enough to sway people.
Then don't you think forming bonds with each other makes this worse?
If we don't care about each other, it's easier to point fingers without getting emotional. The better we get to know each other, the less we'll want to, but it's not going to change who gets possessed and murders.
[ Akane, meanwhile, had also basically told Mary 'he's super dead, what are you doing'... ]
In theory, you're correct. But I believe the whole point of this exercise -- including the partnership, is to force bonds. And if one to overcome the darkness within them, bonds are required.
[ if that's even possible. ]
Others will ignore the logic behind your statements, I'm certain.
I will, I just don't expect it to fix anything. Or to count for anything, in the end. If I end up killing someone, no one is going to forgive me just because we're close.
I think you may be surprised by how much some of these people would be willing to forgive, especially if they believe you're not responsible for your actions.
[ but he shrugs. ]
From your point of view, isn't it counterproductive to get attached, then?
