[it's not like Edamura has explained his own circumstances, either. but he supposes. . . this close to the end, with their darker secrets being revealed in such poor taste. . . maybe it's about time they talked about it. to understand why it is they are so, so similar]

. . . it's a shitty feeling. Isn't it?

[Edamura is not as trapped as Aventurine seems to be, but there were still circumstances in his life that limited his movements. and. . . certain people, who kept manipulating him into making specific decisions, giving him the illusion of choice when he was nothing more than their puppet]

I assume they have something on you that keeps you in line?
