Especially not with what had happened in North Park. The Down was more dangerous than the Up by far--though apparently now the Up could be just as treacherous...]
[But that wasn't a good reason to rush into a contract. She had been immensely lucky with Holmes, especially given the manner in which the contract had been made. But this was... tricky. From what she had seen herself Okita was a good man. A kind man. And she didn't think he deserved to be lied to or deceived, and in a way every interaction they had was a deception on her part. But then there was the question of what he would do if she simply told him the truth of things.]
[Though really... what could he do to her that hadn't been done already? She'd died twice over now. The worst he could do was kill her again.]
