[Sounds like there's Sad Backstory there, but, hm. Squirming a little.]
We didn't know ourselves until, like, yesterday.
[Hates to bring up awkward suggestions (no he doesn't), but]
Yeah, uh, we were talking about that. I don't know if that shit's true or not right now - probably is - but we've still got a while to go and the leaks are coming faster. Lot of gossip going down. Can't say if that'll stay the same or not. We're doing our best to, uh, diffuse the most gungho of Reaper Hunters, but I wouldn't count it out.
Yeah. We didn't know, and, uh, probably wouldn't have helped. Just being honest.
[But her comment does make him nervous.]
I think most of us are on the same page by now. But it's also, not great? That so many people know who you guys are? Well, uh, so far just Newt knows you.
Yes, far fewer people know about me. What happened there was...complicated.
[And kind of really bad too. Getting backstabbed by someone they had thought was an ally? Yeah that sucked.]
We do need to communicate and be honest, but at the same time I don't want a 'gungho reaper hunter' to erase us and prevent everyone from being brought back. That's why Akira has been telling me to keep quiet all this time. He's the obvious one, and I'm supposed to stay hidden I guess.
Think you should keep that up. Seems to be working so far.
[ . . . ]
As for, uh, who you're gonna have to choose to kill to make it the rest of the time - I dunno that we can help with that. [Or, selfishly, he doesn't really want to have to make that choice. Not that it's better to leave it to some kids either?] We can help in trials.
