Thank you as always for the detailed comment! I love that my fic makes you think of so many things to say!

Re: the evil ones line, yes, I do see what you mean. My thinking when I wrote it was that Raito was using Mikami's own rhetoric and wasn't bothering to construct an argument because he thought Mikami was still loyal to him... so he was just all, "you don't need to worry about her. Just put her in that box marked Sinners, and carry on worshipping me." So he wasn't interested in being precise, but if you think it didn't ring true then that's fine - I can definitely see your thinking.

Yes, he wanted everyone to see Takada's death, and also, I think, he liked that she wouldn't get to preside over the execution - that it would be Kira, sweeping through cutting down all the sinners, and she wouldn't be associated with it at all. Of course, he was also not, perhaps, in his most logical mood and so wasn't considering the potential repercussions of this!

That makes sense, I didn't consider Raito using Mikami's logic in his speech...

One of these days I'll have to do another collage (I already an idea, just need the time and space).

Or write a review as a series of haikus. Ha!
