[He meant to filter this but it seems that he's forgotten to. Instead, anyone can see it as he speaks. So anyone can hear that he doesn't sound like himself.]

Hey, Setsuna...Charlie? Can we go blow shit up?

I don't wanna be in this house anymore...

Have I ever said no to that? What's wrong, Michael?

audio:

[gotashortfuse]

Raphael left.

Re: audio:

[charring]

Oh. Well, shit. That definitely calls for things being blown up.

[She didn't get to blow the circus up. This is a valid substitute.]

audio:

[gotashortfuse]

Yeah. I don't wanna be in the house right now.

[He's been in there for two weeks just being depressed.]

Re: audio:

[charring]

That's understandable. I'm done work in twenty minutes. See you underground then?

audio:

[gotashortfuse]

Sure. Sounds good.

[beyourarmy]

Hell yeah. [He suspects the reason - same reason he was going to suggest it.]

Good thing you asked, because I was thinking of calling you guys out for the same thing.

[Hey, Setsuna. You get to see that Michael really looks like shit. He's got a baggy blue shirt on (which he won't admit to having stolen from Raphael's clothes) and a pair of shorts on. Really he hasn't put much effort into his clothes to look cool today. He just looks too numb to care.]

Yeah. We're going in twenty minutes when Charlie's off work.

[beyourarmy]

[Okay, yeah.... Setsuna can't abide by this.]

You doin' alright? Sure you want the monsters and her to see you like that? That kinda clothing isn't good for moving fast in.

video;

[gotashortfuse]

It's baggy. I can move.

[Nope. Not managing to find his give a fuck.]

video;

[beyourarmy]

You don't care you look like shit?

video;

[gotashortfuse]

[He glances over at a reflective surface.]

It's okay. [No. It's not.]

Re: audio:

[charring]

Do you want me to bring food? I can bring something from work.

audio:

[gotashortfuse]

Ask Setsuna. 'm not hungry.

Re: audio:

[charring]

Okay.

audio:

[gotashortfuse]

'kay.

[beyourarmy]

Where've you been staying? You still at Raphael's?

video;

[gotashortfuse]

Yeah. It got fixed after I blew it up.

video; private to setsuna, ten minutes before work is done.

[charring]

Is he gonna be okay?

video; private to setsuna;

[beyourarmy]

Of course he will be. He's Michael. He's been through worse shit. For now, we just gotta be there for him and help him keep his mind off of things.

video;

[beyourarmy]

Alright. We got a little time, so I'm gonna go over. Okay?

video;

[gotashortfuse]

Sure. Door's open.

Re: video; private to setsuna;

[charring]

Okay. [Guess who's gonna be concerned for a while, regardless.]

video;

[beyourarmy]

{Oh, yeah. This has gotta stop.]

[Setsuna enters a little after.]

Hey, Mika!

video; private;

[beyourarmy]

[Setsuna is, too. But they're not Raphael, so there's little else they can do.]

I know.... It sounds flimsy right now. But there really isn't much else we can do for him.
