About a week after Shido's ship...

Allow me to be perfectly clear before I say anything else: I am still mad at you. I do not forgive you, or anyone else involved with the operation. It was unpleasant, to say the least, and a violation of my very mind. It continues to be so, and I am unsure if it will ever stop feeling like that. As I have come to understand, you have gone through something similar in your own universe, before you died, so I'm certain you know why I cannot simply forgive and forget.

However.

Our last interaction ended regrettably, not in the least because I was unable to control my emotions. I should not have called in a favor, only to then berate you for doing exactly as I asked. That was irrational on my side, and certainly not helped when Morgana butted in.

Now that I have had time to think, I suppose I am grateful that Shido's bug is gone, in part thanks to your plan. I understand that you, as well as the others, were trying to help me.

This does not take away that I was deceived, cornered, and was hacked like a common computer. Regardless of what Futaba has said, her files feel like an intrusion. A thorn I am unable to remove, so to speak. I cannot trust that they won't be exploited at one point or another. Had I had the choice, I would've liked to know what was going to happen, even though it was impossible. My luck, isn't it?

I cannot blame you, or any of the others, for doing what you did. I was dangerous, and I needed to be dealt with, for the good of everyone here. For my own good. I cannot say it has not felt good to be in charge of my own actions again, but I can only wonder how long it will last. I am wary to trust anything done to me by outsiders.

It has not been a pleasant two weeks for me, but I figured I owed you a message regarding what happened.

That is all.

I suppose that is understandable.

I don't know what I would have done, had I seen someone in my situation. I'd rather not think about it, though I suppose there are already some other Akechis around who are not quite in their right mind. At least they are not dangerous, unlike I was.

Perhaps, I may be open to hearing you out, if you mean what you say. I just need... time. I don't know how much. I can't promise that I'll ever be fully comfortable with any of you.

Considering Igor won't let me out, though, I suppose I don't have a choice either way. Hah.

Well, if it can get me out of here, and within range to shoot Shido in his ugly face...

I can only wish you luck.
