...Wait. What?

[Okay, hold the phones, this is a serious bomb he's dropping here and Ibuki has zero idea of how to handle it.

So she'll opt for translating it into what makes sense for her and see where that gets her.]

Well...sure, I could see that I guess? We were going through some pretty despair-heavy stuff...sucks I don't remember more of it.

[Though it's probably a blessing in many ways.]

Only one person remembered at that time... though, I only know that because of the trial.

[Since he was sort of dying for most the time.]

The despair disease gave one of us our school memories back. A person who could do something like that, for despair, all of us could have potentially been that person. So should we really think of them in such a light? That world... wasn't what we thought it was. We weren't what we thought we were.

It would be better to not think about them too much, unless they show up here.

If they show up here, then clearly they are being given a second chance. They are being given hope! But before that....

[Before that chance they were just human garbage that descended into despair and spread it like a disease.]

Hrm. Well, Ibuki doesn't think anyone had a grudge against her...Fuyuhiko-chan seemed more mad at Mahiru-chan than anyone else...but then if I didn't remember that...

[She looks down at the takoyaki in her hands. Suddenly it doesn't seem so appealing any more, now that Nagito's vague talk has her caught up in what it all means. Why he's suddenly speaking the way he is, different but still unsettling.

In the end, she shoves her food at him, or wherever she can set it if he won't take it.]

Maybe Ibuki needs to call it a day. These things are pretty tiring.

[Though it's not because of the festival that she's suddenly tired.]

[He took it, he did feel bad to suddenly unload this on her. But, it was still hard to really work through that truth. It hadn't been very long, a week or two at most.... Though, for her it had only been a week or two since she died too. What a strange time difference.

But, even if he felt bad about ruining her fun, it was still something that probably had to be said eventually. A truth that just couldn't be hidden.

However, though he felt bad he wasn't going to say sorry.]

I understand.
