piteous | HOMOPHONIC 🌺 MIZUKI OKIURA

[ They can pray for a bit, then, until he turns over to her. ]

Thanks, Mizuki... You didn't need to.

[ she shakes her head ]

But I wanted to. It... helps, sometimes.

I am touched, even though I think Wolfwood would call us fools for praying for him.

[ We're praying for them all, of course. But his thoughts still trail to Wolfwood, about how... This is a second time this has happened. ]

So many of us are gone now.

[ It's better to distribute his pain across the four, the five later, since he knows Kyoko will be gone, too. ]

... 'Cause he's stupid, that's why.

[ That idiot should let others' care for him as much as he did them. But Mizuki simply purses her mouth into a flat line, gaze fixed toward the floor. ]

Didn't think it'd end up like this, either.

You're right about that!

[ I miss him already. Sometimes you have a gay thought and don't care to hide it. ]

... I had hoped it would be quieter this week. Justice and Froggystyle are good teams to leave points to.

[ wow! gay. ]

... Yeah. Though I guess you can't ever be too certain.

... I can't fault them for picking Wolfwood.

[ Just to start off. ]

I will.

[ :/ ]

Are you planning to focus on his case tomorrow?

[ They really do be having four bodies. Dividing attention will be hard with only sixteen left. ]

... If I can, yeah. Since there's only so much I can do.

You can do whatever you want, Mizuki.

[ Except drink, smoke... ]

Livio is planning to focus on Wolfwood, too, but I'll be trying to give the other cases fair attention.

[ she gives him A Look. not that she would smoke ANYWAY but STILL. ]

... Nah, I get that. I'm not really much of a detective, so I don't know if I could do that too well.
