That's true. I don't think any of us really trust his authority. I mean, I certainly don't, but I want to work with you guys.
But you're right. You did kill a bunch of people. I mean, I'm obviously dead. But even so. . . I don't think everything is as black and white anymore. Maybe it never truly was at all, even if I saw it that way.
Even though you might have killed people. That doesn't mean you can't make up for it. Atsushi was similar in that regard, actually.
[It takes him a bit to answer, looking a little uncertain and hesitant.]
I'm not so sure 'making up for it' is really right. I mean, it's not like I'm happy you guys are dead or anything, but I don't know if I regret it, either. It was never really about morals: I was hungry, so I hunted. And even if we resolve all of this, that's not going to change. Sure, I won't be going after you guys, but I'll still be killing humans who stumble into the resort -- isn't that what people define as a monster?
[ Her own answer is a little hesitant on her end, too, almost contemplative. ]
Can't you change your diet.
Although I guess it can't be helped. That's the nature of the Jorogumo, isn't it? I knew that, and yet still--
[ She stops typing there, but then picks it up again. ]
I don't define that as "a monster". I mean, I can't say that I approve that you'll end up killing people, even if it isn't our group, but I guess it's similar to how we wind up killing other animals for food. Basically a food chain thing, so I get it.
