She can't agree with that. Lili has contingency after contingency - Flayn has no doubt that she'll survive until the end, so long as no one does anything truly treacherous against her. Her main point of worry is the trials, where they've allowed inconsistent evidence to condemn innocent people before.
She can't think of any way to protect the person who receives the majority vote from an execution.]
...at any rate. You are... going to fight for your life tomorrow, yes?
[After what he's said about needing to save Okita - she can't imagine he won't.]
[Namely, the directors, if they're even capable of dying. Lili, perhaps, because he knows her death would be--well, in unkind terms, more trouble than it'd be worth. And he wouldn't betray Ookurikara's trust like that anyway, not when Ookurikara understands his reasons far better than almost anyone. Someone like Natalie, he wouldn't fight either--there would be no honor in that at all.
...Flayn might have been on that list, if he'd chosen to take down Magnus instead. But now, he can't help thinking that giving her the chance to be back with her partner would be kinder.] But Sanji-kun made me promise that I would, if I could.
[He looks down.]
He was the one who was supposed to save Okita-kun, but since it's just me now...
[...Then he has to try. Within reason, he will try.]
[Gods. Flayn wishes she could say something to comfort him. Her default - we shall save everyone, Okita included - seems like it would ring hollow, however; if he could believe that, then he wouldn't have needed to ensure that either he or Sanji would be on a team that won the game.
...if he could believe that, Yin Yu wouldn't be dead.]
Do your best, tomorrow. That is all anyone can ask.
