Even Ridah who's coocoo for Cocoa Puffs has moments where she reflects on her actions, but I usually keep them "offscreen" because it doesn't match the scenes she's actually killing people in, nor would such a thought kick in immediately after melting someone. It's also IC for her to avoid showing weakness to her cohorts, which remorse certainly counts as to her.
Yep. I think people forget that there is an internal story every character is going through. My character doesn't always, for instance, show visible reaction to emotionally-jarring situations. That doesn't mean she's emotionless, or that she doesn't care. She sees it as showing weakness, and she doesn't wish to appear weak (probably because she actually is physically weak!).
