[Honestly the long time before a response made her wonder if he was laughing at her answer, or if maybe she'd... offended him, somehow?? Shocked him?? She didn't know, with Souji.
When she does hear the pings go off, she snatches her device up with more anticipation than she expected from herself and pauses for a few seconds to collect herself before reading the message.
That's...
Hm.
What did she say to that? She kind of hates that he deliberately mentions people (has a feeling that he did do it deliberately because she didn't), but...
She sighs deeply and bows her head, thunking it lightly against her device. He's right (was he?) and it's not what she wanted to hear, exactly, even if she knows that it's a reality she had to face.]
Unfortunately, you're right. [Is it unfortunate because he's right, or unfortunate because she has to admit that it's Souji that's right?? the world may never know.]
I suppose it'll get easier. Or maybe I just have to hope I become numb to it.
[ He can never tell for sure through text, but he did have an inkling that Yuri was trying to avoid saying the word 'people'. And even though it's a shitheaded move, he actually thinks that the truth here is better than... avoiding it. Which is hilarious considering how often Souji avoids his own issues. ]
[ He might be a little worried about her... Yuri doesn't exactly strike him as a Chizuru-type, but still. She clearly wasn't a hardened killer. And killing someone, bearing the weight of someone else's entire life is a serious thing. ]
[ kondou and hijikata had more or less said so, after all ]
you don't want it to become easier. or you'll start killing all the time. then i'd have to kill you
[ even Souji hasn't quite reached that point in his life yet... He's determined not to. also, that second part was totally a joke??? maybe??? ]

you can kill people and still not like it.
