(It's a typical day on Nogard, though many people who see this might be elsewhere.

Many have probably heard by now that Chris is dead. Has been dead for several days, in fact, after being captured and tortured by Ganon.

Except... they're not?

That's definitely a shot of a very panicked looking Chris running... somewhere, not paying attention to the shellphone clutched in their hand or noticing that it's recording.

Several people can be heard yelling in surprise in the background as Chris darts past them.

...The fuck are they even running from? It doesn't sound like they're being chased.

The hand holding the shellphone bumps into something, and the video cuts out.)

(They freeze, stiffening.) Stupid choice, risking your life for (a thing) someone who'll just die.

(Lashing out. This might be a bit much.)

[velocityraptor]

There was a chance you wouldn't die. That was enough. [ He sighs. ]

It was worse because we couldn't even...we had to escape. So I'm sorry for that, we didn't even look after things properly. [ Please, he's been called so much worse than stupid. ]

[telepathicignorance]

...It's alright. (Said a bit quickly, because it does hurt, when they remember that little flash of feeling abandoned at the end.

Would they have just been left to suffer if people knew they would die?

...This is stupid.)

[velocityraptor]

[ No. They wouldn't. ]

It's not, but I'm sorry all the same. I'm glad you're back. I don't know how that happened, but I'm happy to see you.

CW: The usual suicidal ideation

[telepathicignorance]

(Unfortunately, even with telepathy it's hard to convince them of that, even if they know Keigo is unlikely to leave anyone to suffer.)

...Yeah. (They're not sure they're happy to be here.)

CW: The usual suicidal ideation

[velocityraptor]

[ He might not be a mind reader but they seem really reluctant. That's fine. Chris doesn't have to be happy, or pretend like they are, Keigo will be happy for them. ]

Now what do you want to do, do you think?

[telepathicignorance]

I think right now I actually want to order a coffee and two slices of pie.

(One of both the savory and sweet kind.

If Hawks was trying to ask a bigger question there, they're ignoring it.)
