[ Rin looks away while fiddling with a loose strand of hair. ]
Renzo did actually try to exact vengeance once. But on Manji, not on me. See, Manji had lied to him and told him he killed Araya over a gambling debt.
So Renzo wanted to take Manji's arms... and I offered him my arms instead. Because in that moment, I thought it's alright as long as I get to see my journey through. I could see Anotsu Kagehisa die without my arms, and if anyone would fight, it'd be Manji anyway.
[ A gulp. ]
Well, luckily, that didn't happen, because everyone else intervened! Hehe... actually, your buddy Magatsu did, too. He gave me a whole lecture. But I mean, he was not wrong. I was trying to shield Renzo from the full truth for my own gain at that moment, too.
[ Yeah, the whole thing was very messy, indeed. From the start, Rin had put her own goals above taking care of Renzo. And that is her regret, even though she's not sure she'd do anything different, given the choice anew. ]
