I know. I know you tried and that's not your fault, but it's not alright. I wish I'd noticed something sooner. Then maybe we wouldn't have realized something was off literally at the last minute. There's someone out there who hurt you and Kon, and we just let them get away with it.
It would be more satisfying to punish them for it, I know. But sometimes things like this just happen. You can try your very best, and everything still goes wrong. That's...just how life is.
I already know that bad things happen all the time and that— that's just how life is. [He rubs at his upper arm, over his scars.] But there's someone out there who had no trouble using you as their puppet, and there's nothing stopping them from hurting someone again.
