[No matter what, one shouldn't skip a meal. Sieghart is thus at the restaurant. Instead of ordering straightaway upon seating himself, however, he props an elbow on the table, rests his chin on a palm, and sighs quietly.
Then he blinks when someone enters his periphery.]
Hm? Oh, it's just you.

[ shinobu also doesn't believe in letting her health waste away despite how she turns herself into poison. a full stomach leads to a better mind. ]
My name is Shinobu, Sieghart-san.
[ i am so inconsistent with honorifics this game. it'll be what it'll be.
death day means very few smile from shinobu. ]

[ is it because he's 600 that it seems like his anger is deeper? or is it because he doesn't have a nezuko equivalent?
even if shinobu avoids nezuko. ]
They lie and they kill, as if it's their base instinct. They deserve to be slain.
[ but she can't forget kanae's compassion and sympathy. ]

It felt that way.
[Naturally, he's in the cell. More specifically, he's seated on the bed, though he has no intention of sleeping anytime soon.
Shinobu's entitled to her feelings on the matter, so he doesn't say anything regarding those.]
But how I feel shouldn't affect the facts. There was a shadow; though I'm ashamed to say so, it broke down my self-control.

[ she is angrier now, to hear of a shadow. it doesn't erase that he still killed, but if he wasn't in full control of himself, she can be even more furious at the hotel and its owner.
if they manipulated him.... ]
I understand. [ she is seething. ] You weren't planning anything before Thursday, were you?
[ she has to double check. ]

Killing anyone wasn't on my mind. It just stopped feeling so wrong after a while, and I didn't have the will to stop myself when I saw Flayn that night.
[He answers her in a matter-of-fact tone, because he knows himself well enough to acknowledge that the capacity to steal away a life has always rested within him. There's no absolving himself of this one. These are merely the terrible facts, bolstered by his weakness.]

[ that is enough for her to cast more blame on this entire place. yes, he still killed, but she'd be hypocritical when she killed without her self-control being taken away from her.
she can no longer be as black-or-white as she used to, but it still hurts. ]
I believe you. I can't absolve you, but I believe you.
[ ... ]
How do you want tomorrow to go for you, Sieghart-san? If I ask you how you feel about it all or if there's anything you want, will you tell me?

[Shinobu's values are strong. She's a bit acerbic, but there's heart in everything she says. Between this and his own behavior of late, he feels now that she's owed the truth.]
I feel ashamed.
[His failures and cruelty loom over him like a reader's scythe. Still, he straightens his shoulders and smiles.]
But that doesn't mean I've given up. I'm probably going to die tomorrow. Once I do, I want to save everyone; I won't stop until then.

You can be used to many horrible things, but it does not make it less horrible.
[ she closes her eyes for a brief moment. ]
I am glad you are still willing to help and you aren't giving up, but Sieghart-san... the reason you are here, are you not worried for them?

. . . Are you talking about Mari?
Of course I'm worried. [No. He's deathly afraid of what'll become of her if this hostage situation is truly real. He's so, so afraid that she'll be gone.] That's why I have to do everything I can. She's got a whole future ahead of her; I can't lose her to this evil.
