Your soft heart will be the death of you.

[He says, almost a little sullen.]

But I can't say that having a heart at all is a bad thing. Don't worry. Just...don't worry.

[winebar]

[Scoffs.]

Your saying that is ridiculous, I was scolded twice today for being mean to others.

[greatdeduction]

...What?

[Looking up like >:O!!]

Who were you mean to? Why?

[winebar]

Mr Rin Okumura and Spike.

[greatdeduction]

...You didn't say why.

[winebar]

I hardly think it matters now.

[greatdeduction]

Did you at least make it up to them? Apologize?

[winebar]

miss Sheba and miss Mikotoba urged me to apologize to Mr Okumura so I did.

I refuse to apologize to Spike.

[greatdeduction]

...And why is that? What did he do?

[winebar]

Be himself.

[greatdeduction]

[squints]

Did he attempt to aggravate you again?

[winebar]

Not directly. miss Reze accused him and in response he attempted to demonstrate that he was physically unable to harm humans. This proved to no longer be true.

[greatdeduction]

Eh?

How would one be physically incapable of hurting humans?

[winebar]

I do not know. He said something about a chip in his brain.

[Whatever that means. What's a computer.]

[greatdeduction]

A potato?

[FISH AND CHIPS?????????????]

[winebar]

I am sure it wasn't that sort of chip! Use some common sense!

[greatdeduction]

...Ah.

[HE'S DISAPPOINTED.....NO POTATO BRAIN :(]

But regardless of what it was...he didn't have it?

[winebar]

Yes. He was asking the watchers for it back, though.

[greatdeduction]

...

[His face...falls.]

Ah. I can understand why.

[winebar]

[Hmph.]

We can only hope they grant his request.

[greatdeduction]

They might. One never knows.

[And a long pause. A tilt of the head.]

Now, now. What's this I hear about roles, hm?

[winebar]

You would be better off asking miss Mikotoba about it. She uncovered them before me.

[greatdeduction]

...

[He...freezes. And then something shifts in his expression, distant.]

And she told you, then?

[winebar]

She did. She wondered if I had found any, myself. In particular she had a theory that there may be two people with the same role, one per team. That is why she asked me.

[greatdeduction]

...And so? Have you found any? I won't ask for names. I'm just simply curious.
