Because it doesn't have much footing as an actual holiday?

"That's right."

"No, because wanton pessimism has infected everyone."

Has it occurred to you that perhaps...

The mother was a shapeshifter of some description?

I imagine that you may have killed a wolf in order to sustain or defend yourself, without realising it was this- rival's mother...

This is on the assumption that your rival isn't under a delusion of some kind.

...Right. I'm sorry to hear that.

"... Typically, unless one has been rendered into that form permanently, a shifted individual returns to their original form upon death. And if she had be shifted permanently, there'd be no way of telling."

"And it's all her fault..."

Ahh... the word typically.

-smiles slightly to himself as if amused-

Always the chance of flukes- -his face returns to a more serious one- or as you say, ones rendered into a form permanently...

Certainly if this were the case- then you had no way of knowing that it was this rival's mother.

It'd certainly be a matter to be debated in court... probably manslaughter rather than murder.

"Even then, the likelyhood that any animal I hunted could've been her before she perished from a mess off things- and even then! There would be no way of finding out!"

"On a nation-wide scale, she's stowing away secrets that are directly causing the fall of this very country. More personally, she murderered my mother."

Mmm... it'd be inconclusive.

Your rival would have to be familiar enough with the animal form to be able to differentiate it from any other animal...

And then be an eyewitness to the murder.

...How old does she look? Just so I will know if I see her.

Making adjustments?

As well as maintenance.

(As she's looking over a small screen) ... Especially since it rained heavily the other day.

A difficult situation...

I don't envy you, that's for sure.

(Looks at Link) Just minor things.

Like making sure the Mobile Suit still works even if certain compartments were compromised.

-he adjusts his hat with a sigh, leaning back in his chair-

Ramona, that will just agitate her and make her more committed to pursuing this justice she seeks.

You will be giving her more reasons to hate you.

More reasons to want to kill you, potentially.

Do you want that?

...Maybe. Shouldn't be too much of a problem, though.

(She hops down onto the roof, and walks up to Link.)

Any updates on the target?

None. I haven't seen her, and neither have any of my other colleagues.
