They keep telling us to "keep up morale," "trust each other," and shit like that. How are we supposed to do that like this? It was bad enough just that people are getting possessed at all.
As far as I know, he is literally the only one of us who has killed for an apple - even Daigo may have been a possession case. And there's a garden of apples here promising infinite wealth, love, and godlike power. I would actually say that on the trust front, we're doing rather well, all things considered.
It isn't as though there aren't apples on that tree that tempt me, too. And I'm - I'm capable of some fairly ruthless things, if it concerns the things I want. But I wouldn't want to hurt those of you who put your trust in me, enough that I haven't even once considered trying to take one.
There is something about this group, about the trust that we have in one another, that is working. Please don't lose faith in that just because Claude made a mistake.
[ shadowheart does have a point. he knows she does, but hes - stubborn, always at the worst moments, and hurting after losing so many just makes him feel even more rotten about it. he's upset, he's angry, and his heart aches. even knowing that they're all safe somewhere isn't quite enough to make that go away. ]
...I know, and I know we're supposed to believe in each other and stuff. It's just... really hard when this keeps happening. Even if some of us are possessed.
I know she didn't. None of them meant to. I believe that, too, it's just - when you can't even see a difference in someone you thought you knew and could believe in. It's hard not to be paranoid, with all this.
[ what if there are three killers and all of them are afflicted? worst case scenario, and not one he likes thinking about, but just as likely all the same. five deaths in one weekend was a lot already. what if it's six, this time? ]
But, as usual, we don't have any choice but to deal with it somehow. I'm really sick of all this.

...Will you be okay? You and Yves were close, too, weren't you?

I was, and I'm very sad about it. But I just want to believe that we're going to get them back. I don't want to give up on that.
