[Thank god for emotionshare, honestly, because it's the only thing that keeps him from snapping at her more. Instead, he makes a face, but then turns away, trying to calm down. Mabel is scared, she's trying to help the same as him, only to find herself mostly unable.
After a long moment, he composes himself.]
I'm not saying I don't understand your impulse. But you saw how everyone reacted, right? No one wanted you to have done that.
[ mabel can't cry but know that i, lisa, definitely am. in the club.
she groans and drags her hands down her face, frustration starting to stand out a little more prominently against the backdrop of absolute emotional confusion. ]
I don't get it! Me being sad was a problem for everyone! Now me not being sad is a problem too?!
[ then she immediately recoils, oozing guilt. she didn't mean to snap. she scrubs at her face to calm down, but the frustration rises again as she talks. Not at Tsuyukusa--at herself. ]
...Caiman was gonna get voted for and killed no matter what. All I did was make people angrier before they did the thing they were always going to do.
[UGGHHH HE IS SO MAD!! He is so frustrated!! And it's not like he doesn't understand what Mabel is saying but it just makes him mad at himself because he KNOWS he does this sort of logic too. And seeing it from outside it's so obviously stupid.]

Did everyone SAY it was a problem?
And if you hadn't been able to be sad last week, who would have defended Caiman?

Well it's not like it mattered anyway, did it?!
