Exactly! You should have the choice of who to tell, so you can talk to people you trust.
[ funny he should say that, because the stardust is back, this time with one of kazu's memories:
In the half-second of clarity you have, you find yourself wanting to cry as you stare down the woman accusing you of murder.
But it's gone as quickly as you came, and your mind settles back into quiet confidence that nothing around you is real. Yes, you killed Nines, but so what? You're actors in a murder mystery. Of course someone had to "die", but it's just a show, and the run will be over before you know it. Did she get a little too into the role, or something?
Whatever. You can't break the fourth wall, so you deny it, and ignore the voice in the back of your head that begs for help, cries when she mentions Kumon, whimpers in fear when she claims you might be the next to die. Why bother when that when the best entertainment has now arrived, the memory bubble trapping you both here?
It's funny, you think, how she projects her own feelings onto you. Hysterical, even, considering it's all fake. You don't want the pity of someone whose method acting has gotten out of hand, but she insists, and it's... infuriating. Why are you so angry? It's just another role, it doesn't matter, so why do you care?
(that voice cries out that it's real, it's real, you really killed someone, she's right, you're scared)
But it's weak, easy to ignore, as you tell her, "I don't need you."
"I need you."
It's a bit, you know. A total 180 from their first chat? Ohhh, she's good. Well, if she's so dedicated - or is it desperate? - you should ask her out on a date. The drama should be great for ratings, right?

Okay, okay! I will!
[ ...but yeah, stardust isn't stopped by proximity. that memory... ]
...Sorry. I don't mean to pry, but I hope things worked out - or will, I guess?

... It's fine. She's fine.

Good! That's a relief.
The memory thing really freaks you out, doesn't it? I'm sorry it's happening... It's not fair to anyone.

These ridiculous settings don't need to force it onto us.

You are quite different here.

Um... yeah. That's what happened when someone was refracting, so...
