[ He's also staring at the menu. Anyone that knows coffee is going to read our thread and see we don't know anything. ]
Thank you. [ He's just going to have simple black coffee. The robot makes it and he now has coffee. ] ... How are you feeling about all of this?

[ googles what's an americano
He sips his coffee, gaze averted because people don't usually like being PERCEIVED UPSET. Also wondering what he can do here. ]
... I feel the same way, [ Also having difficulty finding the right words for it. ] though I think in a different way from you.

[ It's better to get it all out of the way. ]
Yeah, it's pretty strange. [ Briefly gazes into the void.
... But anyway! Tries to give Jacopo a sympathetic smile. ]
Whatever the reason is, I doubt they're going to just let you go so... Sorry that you're stuck here. If you want to know anything about how this went for the rest of us the first time around, I'll try to fill you in.

[ He's trying to figure out what to say to that. Should he apologize? What does apologizing do? ]
... At least we aren't alone here. If you have friends among us, then it'll make getting through all of this easier.
[ It feels like he said a whole lot of nothing, but he tried. ]
It's not fine, but what can I do. I would appreciate to hear your account, if it doesn't bother you. Murder... Games do not sound pleasant and I have nothing to return.
[ his memloss ]

[ He doesn't need comforting but thank you.
He just nods. ]
Yeah. Where I was last time... Apparently everyone there was dead, and we had to participate in something called the Reaper's Game. We had to form teams and earn points, and whichever team got the most points would be brought back to life.
There were a lot of different ways to get points, but killing other people earned the most. [ Grip tightening on his Americano... But not enough to crush the cup. ] So every Thursday night, at least one person would be killed. On Saturday, we'd investigate the murders and vote for a killer. On Sunday, the person voted for would be executed.
Also on Thursdays, people would get whisked away into... pocket dimensions? And usually come back on the verge of death.
And that repeated for eight weeks.

[ you just suck at h/c
As he listens to this, he sips his coffee every once in a while because wow. This... Sounds so awful. Rin is just nineteen? Sure. That's an adult, but no one deserves this. ]
Kill to revive...? That's just a bloody cycle. [ Another apology rests on his tongue, but... ] In the end, it worked out fine?

... Even if overall the end result is good in the grand scheme of things, people will always get hurt along the way if there are sacrifices to be made.
[ It's... Unfortunate, he thinks. There's no remedy aside from reaching an understanding. ]
But that isn't something you can say to people who are hurting. [ ... ] Of course I don't know what the hell I'm talking about.
[ He's just trying to be a good conversation partner. ]
