[Kashuu absolutely refuses to consider the Flamines, too, so he nods in direct agreement.]
Yep. That guy's still a wild card, as far as I see it. It'd be good to have an ally on the other side, but if he can't even break his own contract, I don't really know if that'd be wise pick. [Though he has his own biases and assumptions too, of course... One of which he'll put on the table here.]
I talk to Ardeo a lot. He's a good guy, y'know? But those spirits - they prioritize their people over anything else, so it'd be a risk working with them, I think. We'd have to keep that in mind. They're honest, though... I trust what Ardeo says. He tells the truth even if it's ugly. I can't really just sit around letting that Bridge take advantage of 'em if that's the case, though, since I think they all really love and respect her.
[Which strikes a very personal chord with Kashuu, obviously. It'd be like the frankly unthinkable situation of finding out that Haru had been awful and delighting in the war the entire time, when they all respected and loved him so dearly.]
( Exactly, if Haru was using them wrongly, Mutsu would actually be really angry. Lord knows he'd be kicking and screaming right now if Haru was lying to them so he's offended on behalf of the spirits right now. )
Yeah, but how're we gonna convince 'em? Just think... if someone came up to us and said Haru was lying to us, ya wouldn't believe 'em either, would you? Not without some proof.
Yeah, I know... [Kashuu knows he'd probably gut the first person to even suggest that Haru was lying, so he definitely knows they're treading on dangerous ground.]
That's gonna be the tough part. That robot said she'll never show she's like that, so we'd have to find a way to prove it.

If she's really the way she is, there's gotta be something, though. No one probably notices it yet but...
( No one can hide forever. )

Everyone slips up eventually, right? We'll just have to be there to catch it, or find some sorta way to prompt a slip ourselves.
[That'd be pretty dangerous, though, and the Bridge would be even more on her guard if she caught wind of what they were trying to do.]
