That's alright. I was.. a bit worried when you weren't there. Especially since Jonas said he wasn't sure where you were either. [ and he was a bit...... well, ] I think it's fine if we make plans to go elsewhere, as long as we keep one another notified.
But I assumed there must have been a reason that you didn't. [ which, they themselves kinda lost track of the time as well so they don't think Alex is in the wrong here. ] ..Kazuki had meant to leave as well, but he was locked in with us before he could.
[ god i really wish Setsu could explain everything properly THEY'RE JUST AS CONFUSED ]
..I don't know, he was angry with me even before the lockdown. But then he completely lost his temper with Jonas and I last night. It was as if, no matter what we said he would just argue and spit back his words. [ one hand comes to rub a bit at their temple, as if trying to soothe a coming headache. ] Something triggered it though. I just.. can't figure out what. Was it because he and I were cursed? Was it something I said during my amnesia when I came back? [ ... ] I know I put a lot on my shoulders and try to take all the load from everything. I understand my mistakes in pushing myself too far. I'm... trying to change that. I am.
[ sometimes, you're so accustomed to doing so much work with just one other person for.. many, many loops— it's hard to break the habit. because, once they're gone, and they're the only one... who else will be picking up the pieces? ]
...I don't know. Maybe he feels like I forced him into this team.
[ they take a moment to think it over, mmmrrr.... ]
He was temperamental since the beginning. Talking about how he didn't plan to stick around, which.. he did mention going with Luo Wenzhou somewhere in a conversation with me that very morning. But he was making snide remarks and Jonas tried to drop it but Kazuki just.. kept pushing.
Jonas brought up the rulebook, how the rules seem to be changing, and Kazuki countered that it isn't about working with our team. That it "doesn't really sound like the whole team thing even matters." [ which, Setsu can't understand why he said that, was he really that upset being in their team? things seemed fine until then. ] Jonas tried to push away the thought of the team not mattering away, which Kazuki just responded that we didn't have enough time to know one another and mentioned "would it be that surprising if it was the wrong choice?"
[ they definitely have a headache now. emitting a deep exhale. ] I tried to step in, that we shouldn't argue amongst ourselves, but then he just countered at me about my actions.
[ unfortunately she's not actually that great at mediating and now she's just frustrated too? ]
I get why Kazuki would be annoyed about the teams, but—it's not like we can help that. I like our team, but if he doesn't it kind of doesn't really matter anymore. It's too late to change. And he shouldn't take it out on Jonas.
[ Setsu isn't that bad of a mediator if they can keep their cool. though sometimes... some things tend to push them to lose their cool a bit. it doesn't happen often, but ]
I know. Normally, I wouldn't stress too much over it, but if this is all because Kazuki has an issue with me- I'd rather he take it up with me than let it out at Jonas.
[ which is partly that. if someone goes after them, whether to stir something up or cause conflict, Setsu has no qualms about it. they can always make manage. but when they go after someone they care about- a friend or a partner. it wasn't fair to the other person.
...they sigh. pushing at their own swing a little. ] I'll try to resolve it. Hopefully, Kazuki will come to calm down in the next few days.

He... I was texting him earlier. He said it was probably better I wasn't there?
[ please explain! why can't she leave you people alone for five minutes! :yell: ]

Well... What were you guys talking about before he got flipped out?
I can only guess, but—I wouldn't stress about it being your fault or anything. Guys just need to fight sometimes. I don't know.

but anyway, she isn't going to argue with setsu's assessment. setsu would know better than her about whatever happened. ]
... Okay. Just—yeah. I guess just try to resolve it between yourselves.

...I'll try to the best I can. I promise. [ ..they hope, anyways. ]
But, for now, we'll need to focus on Rin, and figure out what happened to him tomorrow.
