[Good catch. Lila's eyes narrow for a moment, right up until Mukuro corrects herself. Not great that Mukuro thought it, but it's not like she can change the way somebody thinks. Not in the way she wants to treat Mukuro. She doesn't know how to be good like that.]
[Still, it's — complicated. It's hard, and she feels weird about it, and she doesn't hide that; her expression is complicated, too.]
You already said sorry, though. Before, when we talked. You don't have to keep saying it. That's not what's bothering me.
[She sighs. Slides her feet backward into the stone of the island, then retracts them. It feels like ice-cold socks.]
You don't care what happens to you. You didn't think things through because you don't care. That's what's bothering me. I don't know how you can promise to not do it again when that part hasn't changed. You're not, like . . . you wouldn't do it on purpose. Not for attention or pity like some people might. You just don't see yourself how other people see you. And—
[Ugh. She closes her mouth. She doesn't actually want to talk shit about Riley, it's just — it's frustrating. It's frustrating, and it's not fair, and she's just gonna sound jealous and crazy anyway so she shouldn't bother. But that's not it. That's not it at all. Selfish and selfless don't go together for long without someone changing or getting used up.]

Whatever. I have trust issues, I guess.
