While everyone was debating about Hide, I completely missed Ogura having a “personal interest” in Kanou and being all “it does me no credit, but I snooped around for info on him and his life”, which, coupled with Ogura’s open admiration of Kanou back at uni makes one think. (Specifically it makes one think someone had a school crush).

Surprisingly, Amon’s words to Hide about the impeccable timing of his return weren’t sarcastic as I’d assumed. Figures. Amon probably doesn’t know what sarcasm is. Meanwhile Hide knows what sarcasm is, and his phrase sounds more like, “Aw, ‘cause I looove him!” (he’s saying that in an intentionally cutesy/girlish/childish way, which doesn’t diminish the sentiment… but doesn’t sound like a serious confession either. I’m back to thinking that was a deflection. Not necessarily untrue… but not the reason Amon asked for).

For the anon who asked if Itori said anything interesting: “we’ll pretend to be Clowns, as usual” may also be read as “we’ll act the fool, as usual”. I totally read her saying “you’ve become more ladylike” as a dig at Touka being pregnant, since “becoming” in that context implies doing something, and Touka is still a tomboy, so the only traditionally feminine thing she’s done is get married and pregnant.
