Say... how about -
Has anyone tried talking to them?
[ a long pause. ]
It just seems... it just seems as if maybe they might be scared of us too. And it might be all a misunderstanding, except no one's stopping for a moment to ask, or try, or...
[ faster - a little rambled ]
There's quite a lot of blood, isn't there? And you're not all wearing black, and everything else will stain terribly. And what will you do then? You can't just say, Well, that's all right! Blood washes easily! Because it dries, and... and how much bleach would it take, anyway? For a nice, shiny, perfect-white collar! You can't take anything less, that's just unreasonable, so you'll have to scrub and scrub and scrub your collars, and the cuffs of your shirt, or the ends of your pants. Scrub, scrub, scrub!
And I've been scrubbing, I really have, and it's not all coming off. And maybe Haruhi would know better, because commoners always know best, it's a magic formula - or Kyouya, since the Ootori, and medicine - or maybe the twins, since all that fashion training, or... or Honey-senpai and Mori-senpai, because they see it a lot in training, but I just have to ask: how do you scrub all of it off?
[ pause; breathing in, far more composed. ]
It's a lot of blood out there. It really is.
[ ooc: ...look, we're not all shounen-types, and someone has to want pacifism ._.b ]
