[Ha, ha. Sanji and Yin Yu had a few conversations in the graveyard that were Something, and Sanji's gaze softens at the mention of him coming from Flayn...
Though it immediately snaps into a chuckle with no humor.]
All I got was that your title was Wicket. And like I said -- I didn't ask Junpei the right questions. I was just relieved I'd found another person.
[He feels... pretty fuckin stupid in retrospect, more hurt over his lack of foresight now that he has perspective to shame him. A hand runs through his hair]
... You wanted to warn Magnus during our fight, too.
[Yeah, he realized.]
Sorry, but I couldn't sacrifice a lady because of my own shitty luck. Not even for the game.
[... Flayn cursing is so cursed that Sanji stops and has to decide how he feels about this!!
Mm, don't like.
... But she's an adult and can say what she wants, so he'll just. Move along.]
Frankly? Yeah.
[... Huffing a sigh. Even if he's under no obligation to explain himself, Sanji figures he might as well -- to a fellow killer who had their hands tied]
Because I had a role. Not saying I wouldn't have been biased either way, but I wanted to survive to complete my duties.
[A shrug]
If I hadn't had a role, I would have lasted as long as I could've, and then maybe had asked Belph or Yasusada to kill me and let me go to the side of the dead, and relay information that way.
[At least he wasn't able to hear her say "fuck" on Friday.]
For what it is worth... had I been able to explain to him why I did not want to see you dead, I am sure that Magnus would have stayed his hand.
[It's her own failing, for not figuring out a better way around the censorship.]
...I kept thinking - that it might be important to do that, somehow. That there must be vital information on that side, and that there needed to be trustworthy people to convey it back to us, so we could all succeed. [...] I am glad that you were able to do what you could from there, although I am not at all happy that you died.

[It's something of a relief, to know that at least one of them had realized. She wasn't sure if he had or hadn't.
But, knowing that he had--]
...is that why you told him to... how did you phrase it, "eat shit and die"? You would have been okay with sacrificing him?
[Magnus had apparently been one of his considerations for murder, so... the prospect doesn't shock Flayn as much as it might otherwise.]
