If you're able to make it out of here. Suzune hasdn't even considered the possibility that she may be stuck here forever, actually. Maybe it was that inherent desire for optimism in her, even when knowing the world is terrible and horrible things happened all the time. "I'd certainly like to, though… I also might need a couple of weeks off, after everything. I just have to hope things aren't turning upside-down without me… Haruki isn't the best with other people, so he's never been well-suited to management." Haaahh… At least he could answer emails normally.
"Panopticon….?" Oh, that was something new to her. She'd have to go out of her way to remember that. She closed her eyes and pictured it, a little. "… I guess the feeling of being watched constantly isn't new enough to me to make a difference for me, huh?" She was a public figure, after all. It was better for her to be watched blatantly than to be watched secretly, regardless. "I hope everyone's holding up ok with that, then. I know some people handle it better than others." So it was some kind of psychological prison experiment. Wasn't the term MILGRAM already something similar? Things to research with her newfound free time. That thirst to know things was everpresent.
Oh…. You know, "That's actually really nice to hear. It's kind of similar to my own philosophies, just… Trying to be kind to everyone, no matter their background or experiences." She may have had a few personal limits, but no one was beyond redemption, she felt.
… The follow-up question caught her a little off-guard, sure, but not so much that she wouldn't answer. Suzune grabbed her arm and averted her gaze to the floor. "Ah… Well. Yes. I… assume most people did. Most crime victims are harmed by people they knew, in general, but I…. [REDACTED]. I… failed her, you know? … I need to face justice SOMEHOW." She paused. "Was it the same for you? Um… If that's ok to ask."
