He only told me to stay back because of some stuff he saw, and he decided I wasn't going. [ memshare was a mistake. but... ] ...I know there are too many possibilities for how this could have turned out. Maybe it would've been me instead, or maybe we would've killed Albedo and Kogitsunemaru killed Lillium anyway, and then we voted for someone unrelated.
[ ...he holds her hand and he thinks this over quietly. ]
...Temenos told me that the gloves were Kogitsunemaru's and I knew that wasn't true. But I needed something that would seal his fate, so I made false evidence attach to him.
They were Lillium's. I didn't go with him, but...we had talked about things he was planning to do out there to take care of Albedo. We'd talked about using gloves to make sure he didn't leave prints since people knew we had the kit. We also talked about telling Albedo why he was chosen...trying to reason with him and make it as easy as possible. Including grilling a hot dog for him.
[ he sounds. so tired. but there was a grill on the beach... ] Lillium's not an idiot either. He's done this before, so of course he would have obscured sizing so it wouldn't point at him either. It just happened to work out that they did fit Kogitsunemaru...and with how he was behaving with his fur and his power it all just tied together decently enough.
It's not like I care that you did, for the record. [...] There's a reason I tried to match my bite to the one on Lillium and it wasn't to get everybody to vote for me.
Which, gross. I wish you didn't have to do that since he's still a corpse. [ but he keeps a firm grip on her hand while he thinks. ] ...Lillium kind of figured he wouldn't survive this anyway, but I don't think this is what he thought. Originally, we were thinking about targeting Kogitsunemaru ourselves and changed our minds to try and keep some peace between Phoenix and Rabbit, since they're friends. So much for that, right?

You made false evidence? [she lifts an eyebrow - not in judgement, just curiosity.] How'd you know the gloves weren't his? Were they Lillium's?
