[ god, that was a lot. raven...has thoughts on it, but she's not actively seeking to voice them. rean calls her though and she already knows what's coming. ]
That's basically correct. Pizza got caught in the middle of the two basically dueling it out in the middle of the day [ Dear Aidios ] and then Zangetsu had tossed Pizza aside when he came upon the scene. Which seemed to be in the direction of those monsters.
...From what I understood, Pizza didn't stand a chance, and it was declared the fault of the monsters instead of Zangetsu. I suppose Ulquiorra's part in all of this was just fighting Zangetsu, but I'm hesitant to assume that for sure, considering everything.
[ And Rean didn't like that Ulquiorra said that Pizza couldn't at least die a useful death, and called him a creature...though he left that out. ]
Zangetsu and Ulquiorra are from the same world, if I'm not mistaken. It's possible they were dueling to see who could take the other out for the motive.
[ she's not entirely sure, though. she doesn't know ulquiorra well but she wouldn't be surprised if that's what zan was trying to do. ]
The loss of Pizza, while unfortunate, doesn't surprise me. The boy was way too trusting of others and I had a feeling he was bound to get himself into trouble some day.
...That's right, I think Zangetsu did mention the motive being a source of motivation. I'd also known Pizza had believed in other people earlier on, but I wasn't sure about how well he had begun to trust anyone after Kyousuke's death besides myself and maybe one other person.
[ So Rean hadn't thought trust was involved in this, though it was true that he knew of the possibility of the other getting into trouble. But, he hadn't thought it'd come to this.
He'll shake those thoughts for now. Time to focus. ]
I just—I don't know. We all knew that murders were going to happen, and that our captors have sacrificed two of our own because of an experiment, so it wasn't like I couldn't anticipate that reoccurring at some point. Even if I couldn't.
But, do you think there's any way to keep what happened today from happening again?
[ At the very least, he wanted to know her opinion on that. Rean wanted to think it was possible, but was it really? ]
Do you know how he got caught in the fight, exactly?
[ that's going to make a difference, in her book. she has an answer for rean about pizza's nature but she can't come to that conclusion until she gets an answer to this.
as for rean's question, however, raven does have an answer, as cold and chilling as it may be. ]
No.
[ she shakes her head. ] You've seen the kinds of people we're dealing with here. People like Cumore and Dist, Ulquiorra and Zangetsu -- people who act with little regard for anyone else, stupid as it is. I'll get to Pizza and that end of the spectrum in a bit, but my point is that some people just don't care about anyone else but themselves and there's really nothing anyone can do to change that.
And since The Lady ruled that Pizza's death was caused by those monsters, we should expect another case to pop up again tomorrow. I don't doubt that someone would go for the motive.
...Zangetsu didn't say it was Pizza, but he did mention 'someone' tried to interfere. So I suppose that was likely to be him and that's how he got caught up in the fight—just by walking in on and trying to probably stop it. It's hard to know for sure since we have to rely on him and Ulquiorra's word, but...
[ He sighed. Saying that now, he has a feeling what she might think of that, because haha. Yeah.
But still. He hardly thought it deserved him being thrown into the line of fire. ]
It's strange, I had known that some people here thought about themselves more than others. But, to go that far to fight stupidly [ First time he's said the word while he's been here. ] in broad daylight and involve others...I wonder if anyone could've anticipated that at all.
I had also considered the thought a case might pop up but there was a possibility of it not because it wasn't like the other two motives. But after this, I can't see anyone not trying to go for it. As hard as it is for me to say that.

[ yeah, that's what she thought. did pizza deserve it? not necessarily. but he walked into that one himself. ]
I also wouldn't rule out the possibility that those two had something to settle from back home. If they mentioned anything about that, then the motive becomes less significant. Doesn't make them any less idiotic.
The motive this week seems to be tailored to certain people. It's hard to say who exactly, because for all we know, someone could be hiding their true colors. But I wouldn't be surprised if it applied to some in particular.
...And knowing what the Lady and Rembrandt know of us, they would be in a good position to figure out which ones of us would act, even if they hadn't made it obvious to us that they could be tempted.
[ Rean sighed. Well, he wasn't looking to be comforted here. Sometimes he was looking for the harsh truth...without you know, the cruel aspect of it.
