Maybe you're right. Maybe you're right. But whatever he was thinking... I don't think I can agree with it. And I don't want to hold it against you - not if it wasn't really your decision.
But I respect that you're holding your ground, even for something like this. It shouldn't have happened to you at all.
Anyone who thinks they're capable of judging someone else's crimes all on their own is wrong. I don't care who it is. [ he's firm in this, not a trace of static where he'd otherwise flicker in and out. ] There's no one alive who hasn't done something wrong, but that doesn't make retaliation right.
[ no matter what the crime is.
...he isn't sure how to respond to that, though, so he looks away. ]
You are right, but some people don't stop to think more.
[ it's a problem, but she isn't here to change people or the world. ]
Isn't you trying to be better good enough? Doesn't that show the good inside you? You don't have to always be good or kind to be either. Wanting to be better.... trying to be better... it's more than so many do.

It shouldn't have happened, but it did. You don't have to agree with him. [ ... ] It's better if you don't. Not for my case, but in general....
You are kinder than you want others to see, Kazuki. [ her smile is a little sad. ] I hope you stay this way.

I don't know about that.

[ she knows looking away as much as anyone else. ]
Your words right now speak enough.

...I'm not always. Kind, or nice, or whatever you want to call it. [ ... ] But I'm trying to be better.

I guess so, but it's not about me. I still think you deserve better than this - both of you.
