W3, SATURDAY

[divineimpulse]

[WELL

rita will have to do a lil hunting, but she can find byleth parked on a log in the forest outskirts, just before it loops. she doesn't move when rita approaches, only nods her head. hello.]

[overlimit]

... Hey.

[she'll just walk up beside her.]

So... was that all true, what you said back there?

[divineimpulse]

[...]

I told the truth.

[overlimit]

Weird time to suddenly start being forthcoming about it.

[divineimpulse]

There was no other way around it.

I wasn't going to lie when I was obviously cornered.

[overlimit]

[...]

So it was both Lan Wangji and Crow? And someone was with you both times?

[divineimpulse]

Bradley was myself and Rupert.

Crow was just myself.

[overlimit]

[she looks like she wants to argue, but...]

Unlike the other guy today, it seems like your memory works just fine. So... can you say why you did it?

[divineimpulse]

...On a whim.

[overlimit]

Yeah, fat chance of that being true.

Do you not remember why?

[divineimpulse]

I... have my reasons.

[overlimit]

Such as?

[divineimpulse]

Reasons, Rita.

You don't have to trust me.

[overlimit]

[there's a flash of anger, and then... something occurs to her.]

These reasons... Are they something that, if you talked about them, "grave consequences" would follow?

[divineimpulse]

[...

she looks away.]

I don't think talking about my reasons is a good idea, Rita.

[overlimit]

[she's quiet... then lets out a big, exasperated huff.]

... I'm getting really sick of this crap.

Fine, I won't ask any more about your reasons, or any unknown accomplices. It's pointless.

[divineimpulse]

I'm sorry to waste your time.

You can ask me anything else.

[overlimit]

[she shakes her head.]

I think I got my answer.

[divineimpulse]

[...

she nods.]
