[Ugh, he knew he wouldn't be able to get away with that excuse so easily. And if Kato's watching him closely, he might notice a little twitch of guilt because Dist knows he's been caught but he's not going to give up just yet.]
Yes, yes, everything is fine. And I wasn't terrified, just... [He makes some more nervous taps at the tablet as he quickly puts together more lies.] Well, it's worrisome when incidents like that happen. If Katherine can't control herself, she could legitimately hurt someone somewhere down the road. I really ought to take her to the training grounds more often...
[He falls silent, letting it sit in. It doesn't take him long to shake his head and face Kato. It's killing him to attempt to lie so obviously when he's already been found out. It was a whole different matter when Kato didn't know anything about that day, but now that he's stumbled upon evidence, continuing to lie like this would be plain insulting.]
...No, you're right, as always. It is a remnant of that weekend in November, you know the one. Where powers return?
[He crosses his arms, growing more uncomfortable by the minute as he recalls the exact moment.]

There was...an incident, with Nagi.
