Did you really?

It was the same person, wasn't it.

[Perhaps not as much of a jump as it seems; after all, people are not getting eaten every day.]

[midnightmaiden]

Yeah.

He tried to kill you. Makoto-san— not Niijima-senpai, but someone else—got attacked, too, and I had to step in and stop them both from tearing each other apart.

If I hadn't done anything, he would've tried to kill you. The last time I spoke to him down there, he was really angry, and I think he hates what you stand for.

But I don't. And I don't hate your Ren-senpai, either.

You both deserve to be happy.

Crow called him a "counterpart". [And Sparrow has signally failed to retain what that means.] Someone violent, and dangerous. A killer.

I don't understand why someone such as that isn't stopped. Why allow someone so dangerous to continue to exist, to attack others?

[midnightmaiden]

Because if he dies, so will you.

...It's probably what he wants, but none of us want that for you.

[pheasantboy]

[And Sparrow doesn't reply; he still can't retain the idea of his own Shadow. Perhaps it's a kindness.]

[midnightmaiden]

Shoot! I think I triggered another episode.

I'm sorry.

I looked at the network. It seems like there might be some way to help you break that connection and replace it with something new.

[pheasantboy]

Yes, that was all a little public, wasn't it.

I know I should ask about it.

[midnightmaiden]

Only if you're ready for it.

I know it's a lot to think about.

Sometimes I even wonder if they're right about me. I don't want them to be, but still...
