But if you say it, I can just nod along and not say anything.

[Can't get caught in a lie if you're not talking!]

[illuminance]

... I will go along with this, but I do not expect many to buy it.

[silentscout]

We still have to try. I'm not letting you die, Lux.

[illuminance]

Thank you, Lalli.

I don't enjoy asking this of you.

[silentscout]

I know. But you don't have to ask.

[He'd do it regardless.]

[illuminance]

... Then I'll order you.

This way - you're only doing what you're told.

[silentscout]

No, I'm not going to make you take the blame for that. I just- I can't say it. Everyone will know I'm lying.

[illuminance]

Then I won't ask you to say it. Only to back me up.

[ and he doesn't get to stop her from giving the order. she's used to bossing him around, by now. probably more accustomed to it than is kind, actually! ]

Lalli, when it comes up, I'm going to say that you used your coupon to blind me during curfew. And all you have to do is nod.

[silentscout]

...okay. I'll do that.

[He can do that much, at least. As long as he's not questioned too closely, it will be fine. It'll be fine!]

If- if you do get found out, I'm not letting them hurt you.

[Since people have gotten punch happy in the past whoops.]

[illuminance]

People are going to do what they are going to do. You shouldn't try to stop them.

[silentscout]

If people are going to do what they are going to do, then that's what I'm going to do.

[illuminance]

Anyone who is upset has every right to be. I don't want to take that from them. And I don't want anyone else getting hurt on my behalf.

[silentscout]

And I don't want you to get murdered in the middle of a trial.

[illuminance]

... I would not particularly like that, either.

But even should I survive this weekend, we know what has happened to Byleth and now Doctor Yanagiya.

[silentscout]

We're almost to the end, it's fine. We'll make it.

[illuminance]

We will. One way or another.
