Yes. [ he looks off to the side for a second ] I guess they're sort of like clubs, really. Once a week, people meet with a dorm head and can do... something more than everyone else.
[ and after a bit of looking away he just clenches his jaw and nods ]
... No matter what was said, I was always going to tell you, so I guess that part doesn't matter. I just don't know if you can tell me right now, since I don't know your rules. [ he looks at her again ] I am involved. To put it shortly, I can check a few things about people once a week. One of them is whether they're part of something like that as well.
[ jolts a little, surprised, and maybe a wee embarrassed but-- ]
I thought it might be something like that. Can you not share at all, or is it... not yet? My rule says I can tell one person per week, but... If you're paired with someone or if you want to wait for your Dorm Head to see if you can ask, that's fine.
I went ahead with telling you knowing it might be something like that anyway, even though I was told there's no guarantee all of these duties would be helpful. [ he wants to trust her, basically, which i hope is a stupid mistake and he dies for it thanks kia ] You weren't exonerated fully, but I don't think anyone would kill someone from the same dorm. So-- I'll go ahead and tell you. One of the things I can check is if someone has killed before.
Do you have any idea who could've been responsible for Lan Wangji's death?
I can't say anything, or even give you my thoughts on the matter. If I need to take responsibility for that much, you can vote for me if this continues.
... Yanagiya-san, just what is your job? [ but he shakes his head because it's ~rhetorical~ ] Voting for you isn't the answer. There's going to be more people doing this every week, so even if I did find who's responsible, I'm not sure what I'd do except try and find out why.

[ She takes a soft breath, rubbing at her temple. ]
I understand now-- why you wanted to speak with me.
no subject
[ subtle but he is not a good liar this is a very hilarious role to give him so he shrugs after trailing off ]
no subject
[ After a moment, she reaches out to gently ruffle his hair. ]
I'm sure you have questions, but I'm afraid I'm not allowed to say much. If anything, actually. I'm sorry.

I can't speak of it at all. There would be... [ Otome trails off, then sighs. ]
... I can't ask you to trust me, but please just know that I want to get everyone home safely. That's never going to change.

If there's anything I can tell you, it's what you're probably already doing. Be observant, as much as you can.
no subject
... I'm trying, really.

Yamato-kun, look at me.

What?
no subject
I think you're underestimating yourself. Do you know how many are going to want to keep trying to get through this because you didn't give up?
no subject
I can step up when it's needed, but I don't think my influence is that big. I'm just doing what I can.
no subject
Don't give up, okay? I don't plan on stopping, either-- not until we can all get through this.

[ And she releases him, with a fond smile. ]
I'll do what I can, too.
no subject
Good. [ ah-- ] I think it's pretty obvious, but you can't tell anyone what I told you today.
