[A small cell with a signifantly smaller window which only lets in spare light. Huddled in a showdy corner beneath said window is Rin, breathing heavily and irregularly, eyes diluted.]

... hnngh. I get it.

[Her voice is quiet and a little shaky at the beginning, but then becomes steady as her breathing calms down.]

You won't let me out of here, right? Not before I do what you want, before I say the words you want, before...

Well. I plead guilty, I do. I can say that. There's... [She has her eyes downcast.]

... there's blood on my hands, no denying that.

However. Half those cases turned out to be something of self-defense, and Renzō...

If Renzō wants to judge me for what I did, that's his due right. I'll grant that to him... and him only.

I am not going to give up myself or my freedom to anyone else for this.

[Now, she's looking directly at the camera. There's a flicker in her eyes that says she's noticed that it's recording.]

Because there are things that are more important to me.

(OOC: Been psychologically bombarded with an ever-rewinding replay of Anotsu telling her he's doing it all for grandpa, with the occasional memory of mommy dearest thrown in for good measure. \o/ Will escape later on today.)

No, it's not. My bodyguard was the one who did the deed, but as I employ him, he would never have had anything to do with Kawakami Araya, had it not been for me.

Ahhh, as you employ him, you are responsible for his actions. I can understand that.

But that is the key word~! You will have to take responsibility for that nevertheless, but he is to blame, as he was the one doing it.

That's his responsibility. I've got mine.

You got it backwards! What your subordinates do is your responsibility. But I do not see why you should lose sleep over that.

I'm not. Not usually. God knows I've got other worries!

Other worries than the blood on the hands of your bodyguard? Why, Miss Asano, you~ are~ surprising~!

Hah... yeah, I guess.

I have to admit, I did expect you to be more bothered than that.

Oh?

Yes. Oh. More than you seem to be, aren't you.

Guess you wouldn't think it from looking at me...

...or talking to you. At least, for a while. But no one can hide their nature forever, I suppose.

Not if you're perceptive. Though I wasn't especially hiding it.

But you weren't showing it, either! So hard to tell over the network, isn't it?

It's not exactly something that comes up in every conversation.

Indeed, it doesn't.

Maybe we should talk about this when you and all the others are out of prison, though.

Yeah... I think that might be a good idea.
