Why is it that I disliked her, or why is it that I have a temper?
[she assumes the former question.]
...How Karma died was cruel. I didn't like it. [and that isn't erin's fault, but she isn't always rational about these things.] I didn't like to think of him trying to claw his way out. So I avoided her as best I could to ensure I didn't do anything rash.
[to be willing to consider it that way, and forgive.]
I don't want to hurt someone who was forced to act, either. As I said; it's a bit of a nasty temper. Best to stay away from someone who brings that side of me out.
[but a little less in the cheeriness, more serious.]
I'm sorry that we didn't find them, Kate. I know he was important to you. And I'm sorry for suggesting that he was affected himself. It seems that theory was misjudged.
I'm not sure what will become of the man. Yesterday, I thought he was acting so odd - I began to worry he was the one affected. It seems that he wasn't, but I still can't understand. Why he didn't participate willingly with most of the checks, why he didn't want to hand over his wrench... it's hard to understand.
His grief is terrible, but I don't know how to help someone with such a listless grief.
My attendant. She's an honest, cheerful girl who easily empathizes with others. I always prioritized caution over all else when dealing with people... and because of that, I could never truly make any friends or allies. Until she came along.
[not trying to assign you a girlfriend, but that's very much how their relationship goes.]
I'm not sure I'd describe her as open and cheerful, exactly, but it was much harder to know how to make friends or talk to people before I met her. People always made me very nervous.

It was very cruel. I will assume it was the monster's doing... as I will assume the same for whoever killed Ichiban.

You don't have to apologize. It's painful to consider those things... but it's important to do so, in order to reach the truth.
... I do feel bad for Tomizawa, though. I hope he'll understand, too.

I hope that giving him a little time and space to grieve will help, though I don't want him to feel isolated in his friend's absence, either...

I hope so. I'm not particularly good at these matters, either.

... I feel a bit lost without her.
