It is entirely the point. And, oh, of course, you're the type too scared to get close in case others are hurt. Mr. Naruhodo is doing well. Miss Susato is here to help you, even though you have been most ungracious to her. And look, I'm here. What are you losing here? Your own sanity?
You are only here out of a sense of obligation. You've demonstrated quite well how you feel about the curse that was inflicted upon us with how you've drank yourself into instability.
Oh, don't presume to know why I decided to get drunk, you fool. You know nothing.
[He's deeply frowning.]
And I'm here because I realize you're going to do more harm to yourself than good. And you're going to drag others down with you because apparently, impaling yourself on your own unnecessary punishment is more important than allowing yourself what you want.
I lectured you because you used Miss Susato, of all people, to deliver your message when you could've done that in person. Instead, you ran away, because you couldn't handle it.

It doesn't matter. I don't have those feelings towards anyone here.
[And anyway;]
But pray tell, then, why exactly did you make that terrible decision?
no subject
[but he gets quiet at that.]
...I had a talk with Kotetsu earlier. [...] And it gave me too much to think about.
no subject
How does he... feel about all of this?
no subject
[He almost looks...crushed?]
There's a reason why I asked you if you still had feelings, after all of that.
no subject
... What answer were you hoping to get, from either of us?
no subject
[...He looks away.]
Despite the fact it was a farce...he still cares, more deeply than I expected.
no subject
Then I am glad I do not have to complicate matters for the two of you.
[Anyway we're inside now and it seems Van Zieks is leading them towards the Solar so he can toss Sholmes on a couch and be done with it.]
no subject
[And he's getting annoyed again, frowning.]
I don't know what to do about that. Or you. Or the fact that at home, at home I'm...
[And sorry, he's actually going to try to tug Van Zieks away from the Solar?]
I don't want to be in that room.
no subject
At home you're what?
no subject
[He's just very, very quiet.]
My partner.
no subject
???????]
You-you were.... with someone?
no subject
[BINCH]
But anyways, it's...a complicated matter.

no subject
[...]
So despite everything that is happening now, it is hard to simply...toss that away.
[..............]
I don't...know what to feel anymore.
no subject
[Hmph.]
And then you saw fit to lecture me.

[He won't deny he fucked up but he also won't rest until you admit you're a hypocrite.]
no subject
[........]
I know it is.
no subject
[Hmph.]
As long as you understand that.
[And we are in the guest wing.]
Which room is yours, Sholmes?
no subject
[And he hates it.]
I think it would be...room 11.
no subject
Try not to hurt yourself any further. Miss Mikotoba does not deserve any further distress.
no subject
[And his room is here! He stares at the door, and then back at Van Zieks.]
I don't need any further distress from you. [...] So look after yourself.
