[ well he can probably be found in the bar a bit later as one of the few places that aren't mcfucking locked now touches ground. he's not drinking though, just. here. and the vibes are absolutely horrid. ]
...You were locked in, too, right? It wasn't just us?
It was just weird at first, but - it got really bad, really fast. It was like...
[ kazuki touches his chest. ]
...Pain. Sometimes all over. It lasted for a while, until... [ the distress begins to rise all over again. ] Pearce-san. He collapsed. That's when it stopped.
It was worse for some of the others. It's just... I didn't know we were feeling him dying.
But Dahut was okay before that started. That's the weird thing. Even if Pearce-san really was sick, whatever happened to Dahut... It had to be different.
It would help if we could see the bodies. Maybe that fucking medical officer could come out of the walls or wherever they're all hiding, open the doors, and perform an autopsy.

You're here now. Right here with me. Take a breath. Then, when you can--do you recall how soon the pangs began after the lock-down?
no subject
Maybe about half an hour...? I wasn't paying close attention when it started. Everyone was having such a hard time, I couldn't focus on anything.

[ nodd wants to be quiet. doesn't want to fill kazuki's head with more dark thoughts, but the question arises. against his will, it surfaces.
Did anyone seem like they were pretending? ]

[ just a pinch of anxiety about that, but it seems like he agrees on the second part. ]
They're supposed to be investigating, right? Maybe they're doing an autopsy right now.
