[ how many of our npcs are japanese... anyway, she gets the impression that this is going to be more difficult with a leader she hasn't Befriended, but sometimes, regrettably, you have to try. ]
Well, it's about as much as you've probably figured. I detected that Laine Brick's nova was splintering, and since the Leaders aren't capable of seriously harming a participant, I— [ they swallow, almost imperceptibly ] —called on one of my team members to remove him.
Unfortunately, no. I wasn't completely surprised, but only because I knew of your case, with Cater. I didn't see any signs before then that it was going to happen again.
[ if anyone was going to notice, it's probably good that it was fox? she sighs. ]
Figures it wouldn't be that easy. I guess the only way we'll know for sure if someone killed thanks to this splintering business is if we catch them, huh?
[ she doesn't sound thrilled about this—there's no 'good' choice for executions. ]
Can I ask if you learned anything new, at least? I know when we kill you guys get some memories back too—so maybe there's our silver lining.
I don't think it is... [ that's not promising. but she hands him a plate of cookies, if he'd like one, mulling aloud. ] ...It's still good news though, right? As long as we take the right steps here, we can all come back and restore everyone's nova! And all that good stuff.

[ she sounds sympathetic about that much. now that she's gotten to know rabbit—she doesn't think it was an easy thing to ask for her. ]
Did you notice any signs that it was happening? I was trying to keep an eye out last week, but I couldn't spot anything in time...

... Yes. Hopefully, even if things are difficult until then, things will work out in the end.
