[ he asks the question - not quite uneasily, but almost a little wary. he doesn't want to make lavi relive all the painful details if he doesn't want to, but at the same time... the idea of forgetting something like that, especially for someone so kindhearted, feels unbelievably cruel. ]
It'd be for the best, yeah? I know everyone's got notes, but I trust yours the most.
[maybe a small part of him thinks too -- that whatever bixing will write, it'll be better than anything Lavi can come up with. Bixing who can commit to the facts while also acknowledging his feelings, unlike Lavi -- who can only slip from one side to the next.]
[ he takes in a deep breath, and for a moment, feels the weight of something so important on his shoulders. feels the weight of sadness and sorrow, and with an exhale, puts it aside. ]
Then... [ with a very soft, small smile. ] Start at the beginning for me.
[Lavi nods, then speaks. His voice is controlled, a perfect neutrality.]
We both woke up at the same time. We knew what was happening of course, but we were confused too. Cosmos made it clear that he never wanted to kill me, and I felt the same way.
...I know that sounds suspicious, considering how the last two murders went. So I'm gonna preface that by saying I never planned on killing him -- but that doesn't mean I wouldn't have. I was paranoid that he would try. I didn't want to let him out of my sight that whole night, which is why I left the theater with him.
