...I guess so. I know you're all sword spirits, but it's... kind of hard to imagine him being anything but friendly.

[ winces. ]

Don't think anyone will blame you for that.

[aitou]

Yeah. [...] Kotegiri Gou... calls him "leader".

[dms]

...Someone like him would be pretty important to everyone around, huh? This sucks, but... well, maybe we'll be able to find who did it. Knowing is better than not, right?

[aitou]

...Yeah. I want to know.

[Even if it doesn't change anything. Even if it won't repair him, and bring him back.]

...We were comrades, but... Kiyomitsu and I, I know we're not the only ones hurt. Whoever did this--they'll have to deal with a lot of upset people.

[dms]

Yeah. Not to mention everyone who's upset about Mimi seeing him like that...

[ their BIRB ]

[aitou]

Mimi?

[He doesn't know this nickname]

[dms]

Oh, that's - Meteion. Sorry.

[aitou]

[Oh, right. Well, Yasusada doesn't really get it, because Okita sword--but he believes Kazu, at any rate.]

Mm. It must've been surprising.

[dms]

It sounded like they were pretty close. And I think we were all hoping this wouldn't happen again, too...

[aitou]

Yeah. [A long sigh.] Even if we knew...

[They still had to hope.]
