[there's some embarrassment and frustration from him as he racks his fuzzy and tired brain for more details]
You'd be better askin' Beau or Kon or someone smarter!
Sorry, but I was still in and out when they were talkin' [both in terms of physical consciousness from his injuries and whatever weird effect he was under] but it was just like...whether or not doin' what "the show" wanted got people on the list or somethin' like that.
I talked to them just the other day! Why didn't they mention something this important!? [idk probably all the dead people or something]
--Fine, I'll have to get some answers out of one of those assholes. Or maybe I can figure it out myself... [reaching for her notebook with the hand not holding her phone... then looks up and remembers denji's here, right where she cornered him? oh.] Right, uh. You're free to go.
Don't think they're hidin' anything or whatever, since they always talk about sharin' info with all the other people. Prob'ly just waitin' until they know for sure? [he shrugs]
Or who knows, maybe they think you're doin' stuff.
Ugh... I know! I've seen Kon's notes before, at least.
Anyway, I better go see if I can make something of this.
[she turns to leave, but stops.]
And that coupon... you should keep it. Use it to protect yourself if you get attacked, or... I don't know, next time people show up bloodied and battered on a Thursday evening, that spell could be used to stop the pain. Just a thought.
[he nods, but as she starts to leave he gently but firmly takes her arm and turns her around, drawing up closer to her and standing straighter than normal as he looks down to meet her eyes]
Rita...
[there's a moment, not too long, where he searches her face, emotions fluttering, then lets her go]
Thanks. And be careful.
[rita doesn't get to escape the effects of alpha week!]
