[Akira isn't watching Giyuu closely enough to catch that guilt, so. Giyuu is safe. . . for now]
[but he does smile a bit when Giyuu confirms that Ryuji stayed true to himself. that's the best friend he knows. . . always aggressively himself, no matter what]
That's the kind of person he is. Honest and earnest, no matter what. He acts with his heart and nothing else, and in a way that's admirable.
[a beat]
Fire's not really his element. He's more of a lightning kind of guy.
[ sorry? giyuu was talking about just an ordinary fire, but instead of letting akira flub about that he'll move back to ryuji being a stand up person because he really is. giyuu definitely feels like a lot of it was undeserved. ]
Does he like to think the best of people? [ he sounds a bit uncertain where he wants to take this. ] Is it common for him to assign...roles to people?
[Ryuji is absolutely a stand up person. DEFEND RYUJI 2020]
Hm. . . I wouldn't say he thinks the best of everyone, but-- well. Let's just say he's the kind of guy who would go out of his way to help an old lady across the street.
[ i, naru, will look at hands wearily; giyuu will just have to ask. he might have overheard ryuji and rachel talk about it but it was also during trial so he definitely ignored a bunch of it.
also akira literally just met him??? stop this??? ]
[ or as simple as one could expect all things considered?? ]
If we wanted to go back to our homes then eleven of us needed to be sacrificed. [ blood for the blood gods and all of that. ] It didn't matter who they were as long as they were sacrificed.
[ ... ]
Those who died unrelated to the sacrifices were not counted in the number asked for.

[THAT'S CANON. also:]
. . . roles?
[giving Giyuu a curious look]
What's that mean?
no subject
While we were on the island together, he told me I gave off a "dad" feel and decided that I would be the "camp dad".
[ please do not agree with this. ]
no subject
Yeah, that sounds like Ryuji.
You seem like a "camp dad" type.
no subject
...do I?
no subject
You definitely do.
no subject

How so?
no subject
You told me that you did your best to look after Ryuji and Yusuke. I think that's enough.
no subject
I was also possessed by the island to encourage people to kill one another.
[ seems like there has been some chatter and maybe since he knew yusuke was okay—?? ]
If you have not heard it yet.
no subject
[judging by the way he tenses. . . he hasn't]
-- you what?
[he heard him the first time, that exclamation is more one of surprise and/or disbelief]
no subject
well. giyuu's glad to be the person to come clean then. ]
I was the source of the curse for the island.
[ he'll give akira a moment to deal with that. ]
The one who was influencing people to murder and encouraging everyone to work together while also making sure that the island's ritual was completed.
no subject
[. . .]
[despite Giyuu's confession. . . he doesn't seem too judgmental. it's similar to how the monsters worked back at the mansion, right?]
What kind of ritual was it?

[his hands curl into fists, knuckles white]
What happened to those who died?
no subject
[ he sees akira's anger but he wants to make things clear and communicate things plainly. ]
Before we arrived there were plenty attempts at the ritual—countless of people who were trapped in the island.
