This is Gai Tsutsugami. I can't answer right now; leave a message and I'll get back to you later.

[Accepting Mana would mean leaving Inori which he isn't going to do.]

Do you realize what you're saying?

[Shu doesn't think you do, Gai. He still hasn't fully explained himself so he's sure Gai's just bullshitting.]

audio

[voidseeing]

[GAI NEVER BULLSHITS. Except in the rare case where he's caught so completely off-guard that he has no other choice.]

Did you really think everything was going to end with my death?

audio

[kindking]

I thought it was over already, but I was wrong. Yes, I honestly thought that everything would end with your death back there in Roppongi.

So when I confronted you again I asked you why were still at it. You said that I'd never understand it.

audio

[voidseeing]

And you still don't. That much is obvious.

audio

[kindking]

[That commentary just sort of kills any motivation Shu had to explain the situation to Gai. So he figures it doesn't matter anymore and decides to stay quiet. ]

You can figure the rest out on your own.

[Gai is opening his mouth to snap back a reply to that when a sudden stabbing pain shoots up his arm courtesy of the virus crystals that are covering it, transforming what he was going to say into a grunt of pain.]

audio

[kindking]

[Shu can't see that well but it doesn't take his sight to realize that Gai either has the apocalypse virus or is injured severely.]

What's wrong?

audio

[voidseeing]

[Damn it. Of all the times...]

Nothing. It's not important.

audio

[kindking]

Don't lie. I know you have the virus. You're hurt, aren't you?

audio

[voidseeing]

It's just the virus-- no one here can do anything about it. I'll have to wait until this is over with for it to go away. But I'm not going to die from it.

audio

[kindking]

Please don't be reckless when you still have it.

audio

[voidseeing]

I'll be fine.

[The only thing Gai hates more than feeling vulnerable is showing any sort of vulnerability to others.]

audio

[kindking]

Okay.

I can't meet up with you unless I get some help walking. You'll be on your own for now. Take care of yourself.

audio

[voidseeing]

Hmm.

[And that's all he'll say in response. He's got a lot to think about right now, and most of it isn't good.]
