[It's a video post, mostly because he won't be assed to try to write anything down right now. The man in the video looks like hell. Those who know him know he's always kind of grouchy and terse, but now it's much, much worse.]


So what the hell happens to people when they leave this hellhole, again? Does anyone even know?


I swear, if she isn't safe, there won't be a single...


[He stops himself before he gets himself more worked up. That's not a goddamn thing he can do right now, and he knows it.]


Right, whatever. My partner's gone.


The apothecary's closed until I figure out what I'm doing. If you need anything that badly in the meantime, just find me.


[And with that, he shuts off the camera.]

[She'd say "that makes sense" except it... doesn't, really.]

[Look, she has to make sure, okay? Humans don't talk about experiencing error messages and having their weapons fly away.]

If I was, it'd be news to me.

That a thing where you're from?

[circumitus]

Unfortunately, yes.

[But she'll just take his response with some relief now.]
