[ Though Ponta goes silent for a moment, it's not because he's weirded out by Hanako's admission. He's just trying to imagine it, being in Hans' position up there. ]

I'd hate to come to such a pointless end, but... being able to pull out all the stops and rush towards something, enjoying it like Hans seemed to enjoy fighting... That part's enviable.

[ Hey now, he hasn't told you yet what kind of conclusion his considerations led him to! His thoughts are definitely more complicated than 'anarchy good', but... For the situation at hand, it's a common goal. ]

That's the question. I don't think the people in charge have any investment in what's happening to the city, beyond continuing this weird hero game, so drawing them out seems like it's gonna be a hassle.

[ Like yeah, Hanako should probably not go around stabbing civilians, we don't condone that. But also, would it even matter? ]

... gonna be a pessimist on that one. They might just be able to, considering all we know. The mind manipulation, especially.
