[ justice… that’s a lofty concept if ayaka’s ever heard of one. she’s not as jaded as to say it so openly, but she understands the sentiment to an extent.

I didn’t expect you to come forward with it so quickly.
[ really, the hating hickey part itself is not that surprising on its own, aside from the fact that she’s not sure if she could name her emotion ‘hatred’.
but then again, ayaka’s not sure if she would be capable of describing hatred if someone asked her to do so. ]
