It's just another example that none of us are really safe from any of this.

[ even if people are so sure that someone wouldn't do it... ]

[outdistanced]

That's part of why I'm so worried. Anyone could be next.

[ which is kind of terrifying? ]

[rippled]

I wish there was some way to make some sort of sign, but if we're afflicted by whatever it is, we'd know about any prior planning we made...

[outdistanced]

[ scoffs. ]

And we'd probably use it to try to convince everyone that they're innocent, too. It's too easy for it to backfire, and we won't always have something to set us straight.

[ they sigh. ]

Yeah... [ ... ] Were you friends with Waner? You gave her that ribbon.

[outdistanced]

Not, like, super close or anything, but yeah. I didn't know she was going to keep the ribbon.

[rippled]

I think she was surprised by people being nice to her...

[outdistanced]

[ considers this. ]

She did look really surprised when I gave her those flowers...

[rippled]

When I offered to train her, she wouldn't let go that she owed me after... and I said she didn't...

[outdistanced]

That's a little different than flowers, though... You would've been doing her a favor.

[rippled]

I guess... it did not really do much in the end, though.

[outdistanced]

...If she only just started to learn that stuff, it's not surprising. You can't do a lot with only a few weeks' training. That goes for anything.

[rippled]

Mm. Logically, I know that. I even told her that myself when we first started.

[ it's still just odd to see it come to pass. ]
