Kazuma Asogi
★★★★★ [5/5]
+ brother!!! (...???)
+ being here has given her another chance to get to know him again
+ he has committed murder. she can tell that he feels he has crossed a line he can never come back from. he has to several counts. this should be a dealbreaker; even to Gina, she promised that even someone like Barok van Zieks would face justice, if found guilty, but she seems to have created a moral exception for Kazuma. she hates how this makes her feel, but sill believes him to be a good person.
+ thanks to Leia, she found out about his previous transformations into Hyde, a monster created from his deepest, carnal desires and vices. she read the book, thanks to a new bookstore as of March 2022, and has made the connection that the murders occurred because of this monster. while she initially tried to reason with him, that this made him not responsible for the murders, he still very much considers him a part of himself, and thus, still responsible. upon finishing the book, she now understands--and she feels like she has a deeper understanding of him.
+ he still seems to care about her a great deal, and is protective
- unfortunately, the fact that he cares has led him to push her away, especially after Hyde and the subsequent murders have come to light, saying some very painful things about finding someone better, and to stop wasting her time chasing something that was never there.
+ she cried, but saw through whatever act he was trying to put on. failed to toss him, but refused to give up on him like he wanted. she realizes here that...
- he hates himself
+ has told him she loves him (4) times as of March. learned healing dreamotion to save his life, and now has an affinity to snakes that allows her to understand them.
? would die for him...?
+ resolved to fight for his happy ending.
? thanks to Leia's and Vigil's encouragement, she is now starting to suspect that her previous love confessions may not have been entirely platonic like she originally thought. she is still trying to navigate this as more people are starting to catch on.
+ but the most important for her is that she encourage him to love himself. whether he can reciprocate or not comes second.

I just wanna know what you're dreamin' of / When you sleep and smile so comfortable / I just wish that I could give you that / That look that's perfectly unsad

I wanna hide the truth / I wanna shelter you / But with the beast inside / There's nowhere we can hide

Pressure like a grip, grip, grip and it won't let go, woah / Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'till it's ready to blow, woah-oh-oh

Who am I if I don't have what it takes?
No cracks, no breaks / No mistakes, no pressure!

Barok van Zieks
★★★☆☆ [3.5/5]
+ she has seen him vulnerable, both in court when he found out about Klint, and in songerein when kazuma wanted to kill him
+ genuinely believes he is a good person
- still a butt who's been racist against japanese (but he's working on it)
- still shut up like a rusty cabinet
+ seems to have a pretty high tolerance for annoyance, surprisingly? despite claiming the opposite.
+ makings of a good dad/uncle

▷ Cold as Ice - Foreigner
I've seen it before, it happens all the time / You're closing the door, you leave the world behind / You're digging for gold, you're throwing away a fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay
You know that you are
(Cold as ice) as cold as ice to me
▷ Enemy - Imagine Dragons
Your words up on the wall as you're praying for my fall
And the laughter in the halls, and the names that I've been called
I stack it in my mind and I'm waiting for the time
When I show you what it's like to be words spit in a mic
Oh, the misery! / Everybody wants to be my enemy

Yujin Mikotoba
★★★★★ [5/5]
+ dad!!!!
+ best dad ever
+ super reliable, when she called him to tell him about van zieks, he was already on it
+ very proud to be his daughter
- you really let your daughter think you were deathly ill for ~2 months while dragging her back home tho
- yes she still thinks about that

Ryunosuke Naruhodo
★★★★☆ [4/5]
+ always ready and able to stand steadfastly at his side
+ loyal to him 100%
+ when pretending to be a boy lawyer, she emulates him, pretends to be related to him. she obviously looks up to him.
- she was looking forward to starting a law firm with him, to get to know him even better, but that will just have to wait.

Daley Vigil
★★★☆☆ [3/5]
+ officially the 2nd person she has told about Ryutaro in songerein......fourth person overall
+ a really kind man who would do anything for his family, a man who certainly deserved better than what the shitty british government doled out
+ wants to get to know him better
- deeply worried he is still using Mr Gossip nowadays, please see a therapist Vigil
- particularly since he has a history of a suicide attempt, yikes!!!
- please see a therapist Vigil!!!!
