I have no doubts you feel justified, but... [How to word it?] To put things in perspective. How would you feel if, um. Someone who swapped body with you did questionable things? Things that a number of people may have witnessed firsthand.
[ Somehow... She doubted he'd take it any better than she did. ]

[A pause.] And honestly... I wonder if that was truly the only way. Were you planning to do what you did the way you did it, had your bodies not been swapped?
[ And if not, why couldn't he do with Maribelle's body what he would have with his own? That was the question she'd had ever since reading that whole post— He sounded honest, but that was a bit weird. ]
