[ are you in the first aid center!!! ]

Are you dead?

[agleam]

[he is in the first aid center! imagine if i said no. presumably he is dying less. glances over at her, kind of unfocused.]

Nope.

[talking is kind of a struggle but it's fine.]

[bxkautx]

Good. Keep it that way.

[ bossy... she will come to hover awkwardly near him. she thinks for a second, though. ]

Would texting be easier? [ she does... vaguely remember when kazuki was on one of these trips in homophonic and had to text for a while instead of talking... ]

[agleam]

[looks down at his missing arm for a second.]

Probably not.

[bxkautx]

[ YEAH THAT'S FAIR. she is a modern and a teen so just kind of assumes anyone could text with one hand, ambidextrously. ]

... Then we can keep the talking short. I was just making sure you got... defibrillated. I think is the word. [ does that matter. ]

[agleam]

It's...

[not going to reopen if he talks, he starts to say, but then he kind of pauses and stares off at something in the distance that she can't see. scoots a little on the bed to get away from this invisible thing, wincing in pain as he does. okay!]

[bxkautx]

[ she follows his gaze to. nothing?

and then just kind of moves to try and stand in between him and. That General Direction. ]

[agleam]

[just kind of taking a ragged breath, hoarse, as he looks away]

Thanks.

[bxkautx]

There's nothing there. For the record.

Hallucinations seem common after these things.

[agleam]

Yeah. They... said the same thing while we were still in there.

[and he believes that, at least, even if it seems real to him.]

[bxkautx]

It was happening during the trip, too? Guess that makes sense.

[agleam]

Does it?

[bxkautx]

They're always messing with people, right? Showing you people who aren't there, getting you killed but you come right back?

[agleam]

...Right. Makes sense.

[bxkautx]

The memories stick, though.

[agleam]

[surprised by her saying that for a moment, but - nods with a wince.]

Hopefully.

[bxkautx]

I meant that as a bad thing. What, you want them? [ memories from the pear wiggler? ]

[agleam]

...Yes?

[sounds kind of ???? for some reason. the reason is because he has cyoa brain problems.]

[bxkautx]

[ hmm. well, she'll just ask instead of trying to guess. ]

... Do you want to talk about it or nah?

[agleam]

I was at the school. I just need to figure out how to... get back.

[bxkautx]

To there to here? Or from somewhere else to... there?

[agleam]

From... wherever this is, back to there.

[bxkautx]

And you couldn't just catch a plane, huh?

[agleam]

...Could I?

[sounds legitimately unsure]

[bxkautx]

I was kidding. I don't know?
