[ ...ah. somehow he kind of thought hanako would have already suspected this. maybe he should have left this to reigen to tell him himself.

She was the one who tried to kill him that night. Used that book to try to make him shoot himself. He did that whole crazy thing with the kennel because he didn't wanna kill her — he thought if he could just lock her somewhere until morning, then no one would have to die at all. But she got out and went after him again even madder than before, so... he ended up stabbing her so he wouldn't be the one to die.
[ NO HE DID NOT KNOW but the explanation, if anything, calms him down. like yeah, that makes sense. Hanako had exchanged a total of 0 words with Yae Miko but did not trust her solely on the account of what she is. Her being out to kill makes perfect sense, he doesn't question that at all. ]
I didn't know... I hope he's okay.
[ a self defense kill... and he couldn't say anything about it, because people will point fingers and assign him blame regardless. that must be eating him up inside something awful. ]
[ it sucks so much because neither reigen or hans deserved to die for that but this city's justice system is a bad joke.
he gives his hand a squeeze. ]
It's been a pretty tough and complicated situation, yeah, but he's got some support, and he's been gettin' through it. He's blaming himself really bad for what happened to Whisper, though. It's not his fault, but I'd feel the same way in his shoes.

[ He gets that too. Even if she wasn't killed by his own hand, she still died because of him. It's such a shitty situation. ]
Let's cheer him up together next week. I'll think of something.

...Yeah, that sounds nice. Let's do it.
