It's not so much regret I'm worried about since I trust you to know a good idea from a bad one. It's that I don't want you to feel like you're doing all the work because I'm so sleepy. Botan being popular in her first day does make her a huge target, but I must ask: would neither Goshikuro or the lackey be aware that she's actually a reaper? Goshikuro is strong but he's not the type to acquire intel unless absolutely necessary, so maybe he doesn't know of who she really is, just that apparently she's Kurama's girlfriend, which means she's something he can use to hurt him. I don't think Botan would be seen as a threat as much as something used to cause Yoko pain.

Yes to saving her from herself and snapping her out of her trance, but we must figure out a reason for Kurama not to see it sooner. No one saw the other two students killing themselves coming. Kurama wouldn't expect Botan of all people to be the next target. Without detection equipment, equipment Botan owns, he wouldn't be able to pick up on any residual influence. Maybe in his normal form it's not possible to sniff out the corruption of Botan's energy, but in his Yoko form he could? Should he transform momentarily just as he begins to realize that Botan isn't herself JUST before she's in a position to take her own life?
