It's important, and... it's something everybody will need to know. I just want you to know before I say anything to the others. It's not to make anybody mad, or want to argue at each other.
[But to say anymore means explaining, so...
An exhale.]
Nobody actually chose to vote for you, Yona-chan.
... I was the one who did something I shouldn't have. So the Realm changed my vote.
My leader says that voting for myself... it kind of messed up the Realm. It didn't understand my vote at all. Like... it knew I was innocent, and that I knew as much, so... it just corrected itself and put a different name there.
I know it turned out okay, but... if Virid-kun hadn't done anything, or if we'd been all over the place with our vote, I... I could have put you in danger. And I know that you were really upset before, even if you aren't now. [looks at that pc we haven't done... it's fine hikaru has eyeballs......
She takes a step back, only to bow low at the waist, her braid flopping over her shoulder.]
I'm... I'm really sorry. For being foolish, and for doing something that could have hurt you.
...I just wish he didn't have to resort to that. If he really remembered, and all he wanted was another chance to live... I just wish he could have had the chance to be rewarded, instead of feeling he had to fight.
I'm... really, really glad he was okay telling you what he did, Yona-chan.
I think he meant for everyone to hear it. [so, it's not just that he was okay telling her - it's that he was okay telling the group at large.] I saw him the night before. If it was only me he wanted to tell, he could have told me then.
...so, that probably meant he thought it was important for all of us to know. He's not... he wasn't the type of person to say something for no reason.
I'd always wondered why he was so quiet. He kinda reminded me like... like when you find a dog stuck outside that's been lost for a really long time. Even if it might have been friendly once, it gets scared and angry and forgets what a nice person's touch is like. It wants to protect itself first, because that's what it's gotten used to.
I don't know if that's really the kind of person Virid-kun was, but... I always hoped he had found somebody he could talk to.

So... they plan to discourage people from voting for themselves by doing that.

It's better that we found out early, Hikaru. It could have been a lot worse. I'm not mad or anything.

[yona would have said (will say? the dangers of starting a new pc before finishing the old one) the same thing the night of the trial, too.]
You don't need to apologize to me. Like I said, I'm not mad, and it's good that we found out sooner rather than later.

[Yona sigh.]
...I wish he'd found someone like that. Maybe things could have gone differently if he had.
