[ don't think she's not paying attention to the change in his demeanor and comparing it to everything else that she has been picking up along the way. it was obvious from the start that it was all a show and she's starting to see the parts of claude... it's interesting.
though she casts her looks to the side and considers the answers she has heard. ]
I wonder why there's nothing for me.
[ nothing out of place. nothing strange. ]
I only know there's something missing because I know something needs to be missing.
(The corners of his mouth twist up into a smile visible even from behind his hand and his eyes brighten, teasing,)
Maybe you forgot one of your secrets. You should talk more.
(Answer more questions. Open up to those around her.)
But if you insist on keeping them... I found out after speaking to someone I know.
(It's a suggestion he tosses out while fully remembering her warning before. Izumo's probably recognized a certain pink haired girl wearing a uniform similar to his own.)
[ she makes that extra clear with being harsh. he's making an entirely reasonable suggestion but...hilariously, what claude teases her about is about on par with what she wanted to suggest. ]
...but I have thought about talking about them, except, there's no certainty that even if I said anything that the memories would be safe.
[ she pauses for a moment to think about it. perhaps she should leave it here? it leaves some things exposed for further exploration but if she really wanted to blow the door open— ]
I have started to write them down—treating myself as a stranger as I've described everything.
[ stop pushing shima onto her. he is the last person she wants to talk to about so many different things. that said, she'll give him a strange look when he mentions the paper.
sorry claude, but that derailed her from maybe letting him know a few secrets. tough cookies. ]
Our PHS has a notepad that you can use to write whatever you want and for however long you want.
(Oh don't worry he's spent plenty of time playing around with the PHS and he laughs,)
And what if I prefer paper? It's easier to figure out my thoughts when I can see them all laid out.
(Really... you should... see his note-taking style it's definitely something that needs to be put on paper first with crazy circles and lines all and things scratched out all over the place.)
[ this. doesn't explain anything, or well, nothing explicit but color her not surprised to have an idea of the level of chaos his thinking process is. it seems all very on brand for what she's gathering. ]
(Eventually he gets his mess together and it ends up all nice and neat and organized so no one exatly knows what he was thinking.)
Everyone thinks differently. You could give someone the problem and come up with three or four different ways to solve it. Write down your memoir, Izumo. Hey, maybe it'll become famous some day.

Writing everything down is a good idea. I haven't really thought about doing it myself... I think I'd run out of paper.
(Also he doesn't want to leave any evidence behind tbh. Loose papers are dangerous.)
If you want to talk, I'd be more than glad to listen.

Oh, so you're like that.

I tend to keep things neatly organized.

I would rather have it destroyed. I'm only writing it for me while I'm here.
