She was upset, and he was upset that he'd hurt her. But she doesn't hate him, just like she decided she didn't actually hate you.

[ there's a pang of pain there because he really doesn't believe that she doesn't hate him. and he can't tell if that means that she didn't forgive hanako either, or if she did forgive him and it's just Danny who doesn't get to have that. ]

...right.

When did he tell her?

[doghouse]

[ she gave you a hot dog!! ]

Sunday night. So the day after the trial.

Would've been a lot uglier if he'd waited, I think.

[foreverphantom]

[ IT WAS A PITY HOT DOG ]

...Sunday night, huh?

[doghouse]

[ WHY WOULD YOU EVEN COME OVER AND GIVE A PITY HOT DOG TO SOMEONE YOU HATED ]

Yeah.

[foreverphantom]

Hmm.

[ (icarly voice) interesting!

he does not say anything else ]

[doghouse]

[ ... ]

You good?

[foreverphantom]

Oh, sure.

...I just may or may not have cursed Hanako on Sunday night to confess all his sins to the people he cares about.

[doghouse]

Guess that might explain him showing up at my door with more to say out of the blue Monday morning... and at that meeting...

[ hanako your votes...

he shrugs, though he's also just imagining how upset danny would have been if anyone had used that same curse on him. ]

I don't think that impacted what he was saying to us on Sunday, and I definitely had to push him real hard to get him to go talk to Nimona after that. But either way, the result's the same — he told 'em and they know now.

[foreverphantom]

[ he snrrrks a little at that, feeling kinda smug ]

Yeah, I was wondering if that's what made him spill about the votes.

[ then he sobers, just a bit ]

...I hope it didn't hurt Nimona. I just wanted to ruin his life, a little bit.
