That's true. If you take a warm bath, you might feel better.

[It works for muscle soreness, at least.]

Um. I'm really glad, that you tried to stop that from happening.

I will consider that, then.

[ a pause. ]

My efforts did not mean anything. But it is better than doing nothing.

Mm. It's good to try. But it's not good to get hurt and worry others, you know.

... Were others worried for me...? They need not be.

I think Cat was worried.

[Was he. Also, who is Cat?]

You aren't a human, so maybe your limits are different than a human's, too.

... Cat...? But yes, I recover more quickly than humans do.

[Whispering. Who's he whispering to, no one is here.]

Tiger-san doesn't like to be called that. They're afraid of tigers.

[ goat doesn't know why mob is whispering but they assume it's for a good reason, so they'll also start whispering. ]

Oh, I didn't know about that... Why?

Tigers killed their family.

[Sadly.]

But if they can be a cat instead of a tiger. . . it's easier on them.

I see... That's very sad. [ sincerely! oh no tiger. ): ] I'll be sure to call them Cat from now on as well.

[Nodding, with a small smile. Goat is so kind. We're ruining Tiger's life.]

I don't want anyone to have their feelings hurt while we have to deal with everything else, too.

[ tiger has probably already forgotten about the sob story they gave mob while goat already forgot they all have amnesia. ]

You have a kind heart.

So do you.

[What he said about the animals. . . it was true!]

Even though what happened was bad, I know that you three did the best you could to help.

... Thank you. I'm sure you did your best as well.

[ they don't, like, KNOW because they were kind out of it for a lot of kano's removal, what with... being electrocuted... ]

I did try.

[But. His best? Hmm. Anyway.]

Goat. . . do you know if there's a reason some people started killing others?

[ they shake their head. ]

What reason others would have for setting out on Thursday night, I do not know.

Someone said that, um. . . that one of you might have been encouraging their team to do that.

I don't know what others may have told their participants.

But you didn't do something like that, right?

[ they shake their head. ]

[I hate that I feel like this answer is really ambiguous but I don't have a choice but to accept it.]

Hmm. Everyone says they wouldn't do it. . . well, I haven't asked all of you, but.

I would like to think that none of us would do such a thing... but one can never fully read another's heart.

That's true. . .

If we found out which one of you it was, what could we do?

Well, first we should ask them why they did it. It is difficult to proceed without knowing one's reasons, after all.

[Oh, good. He seems relieved.]

Mm. I would want to ask them, too. I know it isn't your fault, but - voting for people, and punishing them. . . that isn't helping anything at all.

Because Viridian-san is dead, someone else killed somebody and there was no one we could ask for help. If Viridian-san was still here, he could have helped!
