What is an 'ex-murderer'? Nobody Akechi killed is coming back. It can't be undone with an apology.
[ I'd like people to know the person I am now, before I tell them about the person I used to be.
That was what Adachi told him when he asked if there was anything else he needed to know. Yusuke is thinking on that, hands through his hair trying to keep his head on straight, keep it from flying off into a dozen different directions but he is failing, failing as he has since the second he stepped through that door downstairs for the first time. It's too much, he was overwhelmed before Akira had arrived, and it isn't any easier now.
He thinks about when he and Adachi had first met, and how his demeanor changed when he found out he was a Persona user.
He thinks about how he brought Yusuke out to eat in those first, terrifying days, and asked for his partnership. Or maybe, instead, servitude. He was shown kindness when he had no one to turn to, he had fallen for that once, he could have fallen for it again.
The way he had threatened Yuri before he got here and seemed to only regret getting told on, and the way he teased Yusuke with a smile, and the way he had no concern for his own well-being and by extension, everyone around him. And how, despite that, he supposedly cared enough about Yusuke to tag along yesterday and help him make a mess of things.
The last thing he thinks about before he cracks, blood boiling so hot that is threatens to bubble through his skin, was the hospital, and the vague, dodgy conversation about guilt and deserving that Adachi had with Viktor. Right in front of his face, as if he was stupid, dangling secrets just above his nose like a dog. ]
