[ Dorothy also pauses, because this isn't... something she's still entirely comfortable with.
But maybe also because she really hasn't shared this with too many people.
Still, if he's narrowed it down to this much... ]

[ . . . . he nods, and then bows his head.]
Your secret is safe with me.
[and then:]
I will now more confidently dispel any concerns that you might have been responsible for what happened to Raven, should they still linger.

[ Quietly. ]
But thank you, for saying that.

[ . . . . . he glances away for a moment, before looking back:]
Presumably, they might be removed now.
[whoever was responsible for raven's death]
But I'm afraid I cannot say more than that.

That's fine. I don't particularly feel like being nosy.

[ Her voice gets a little quieter. ]
I didn't expect the bullets to rebound like that. I was hoping it might have been another merciful act, like last week... but perhaps that was too optimistic.

... it would be something to hope for, but I don't believe that we can rely on such a thing.
Even though... it is a harsh punishment for an innocent man.

Had you heard anything from them over the past week?

I haven't-- just that it's indeed possible to communicate with them.
Even if that's... still difficult to wrap my mind around.

Mm... I feel the same.
[he tilts his head]
I've only received one message myself - but it's odd, to communicate with someone that I was told is gone.

I believe so.
At the very least, mine sounded very much like Sharon - and conversations that we've had in private.

... If it's Sharon, the I truly hope she's doing well. She was gone all too quickly.
[ She sighs. ]
Though perhaps that made her more fortunate.

Not entirely.
But I do think it would be nice not to have to continue to risk condemning innocent people.

It is. But I've accepted that it's something I must continue doing and as such, I intend to take it seriously.
[ She takes a breath. ]
Watching the aftermath does take its toll at times, however.

None can blame you for that.
It would be more concerning if, as time went on, we began to lose our hearts along with our memories.
But the very least we can afford each other... is dignity and respect.

... not today, I'm afraid. I think there's someone who's impatiently waiting for my answer, so I don't want to risk it more than once today.
Perhaps next week?

Next week is fine. I understand.
