BE=DE is wrecked and are pretty sure that their positioning in the Imeeji inter-unit relations is... bad. Boss personally feels like BE=DE is getting scapegoated for all the This Game Was Shitty feelings mostly because like... IT'S VERY CLEARLY OBVIOUS THAT THEY KNOW THEY MADE A MISTAKE IN PLAY AND FUCKED UP AND REGRET. Boss doesn't really appreciate the thought that other units might think they deserve some kind of corporeal punishment and he doesn't like the direction it's going to send some of his unitmates in (Sanguine and Phoenix being 100% ready to bus themselves), but Boss also feels like there's not much he can do or say to change things because they did do a wrong and the fact that the options were literally called "Trust" and "Betray" in the game has influenced people's views of their choice (stupid but also...). That said, he at least know AlcheME and HSS are willing to still work with BE=DE. So that's... something...
On the flipside, avante's been very much like "we made our play based on our understanding of the situation and therefore will not tolerate judgement" while also being like "we need to make it clear that we're not going to carry grudges from game to game". Raijuu wasn't involved in the game but he's been pretty much watching the fall-out with an eye of "... seems dumb to blame people for the outcome of a double-blind game that asks people to trust that units won't Pull Some Shit" mostly because he HEARD about the previous game enough to know Some Units Will Pull Some Shit. So it just seems stupid to him and he's fine with dealing with other teams. He has learned that avante isn't fond of AZRAEL tho. So. Good to know.
As for CR... Raijuu didn't really get much of an impression from Yasuragi. He seemed pretty chill but also pretty distant. For a newbie who was trying to get an understanding of the situation and the place he was in... he was remarkably unhelpful. But noted that Shuten and Yasuragi are unitmates so like. Shrug. Maybe Taisho is just Like That. (Except Shuten was actually Helpful.)
As for Boss...
Boss was really out of it after the game, he was bsoding really hard. But it did register that Yasuragi was trying to buoy him up in a way? Not optimistically, but with a sentiment of "this too shall pass" which does help in some ways but in other ways it doesn't help the above situation at all. Boss has no idea what to do, he doesn't know what he can say or do to fix the situation with Taisho--but both Yasuragi and Shuten, while upset, didn't seem willing to hold grudges and Maki also doesn't seem to be interested in any kind of penance or anything like that. So he's... mostly still at a loss.
He's also kind of wanting to talk to like Yasuragi who was there during the play to tell him what happened. At this point, Boss has no idea what went down for the other units except that AlcheME knew they were going to get bused and played Trust anyway. Boss is understanding that it was Very Poor Communication on BE=DE's part but also... he just wants to understand why the other units would risk Trust when (DESPITE WHAT PEOPLE KEEP SAYING) Trust was actually the HIGHER RISK to play. It's completely something he doesn't understand and he'll probably understand it even less if he's told that they actually assumed their message correctly but then changed their thoughts on the interpretation of the message.
There's very few people who make Boss feel like he can approach them about things like this and weirdly Yasuragi is someone he sees in that area. Largely because of how they've interacted previously. He's not sure how Yasuragi sees him, except that Yasuragi apparently is willing to put aside his own (probably? maybe?) personal hurt in order to help him out when he was drowning in guilt and horror. Which is moooore than what he can say for like... moooost other people. lolol.
