[ i'll be nice to you this one time and add to the serenity with kazuki playing guitar on a nearby couch! though peaceful, but dion should be able to feel the level of concentration he's putting into it, and the slight stutter of frustration when he hits a wrong note that easily shifts into determination to fix the error as he continues to play. ]
[ already being problematic are we ]
Any musician worth their salt would be. You don't get better by being complacent.

You mean being kidnapped to the middle of god-knows-where space? No, obviously I'm worried about that. But it's not like I can do anything about it.
...Somehow I doubt that. You just get used to compartmentalizing after a while.

Usually necessity.
And yeah, I know. But what do you expect? Everyone handles stuff differently.

Depends on the country, I guess...? It's not in mine. War isn't the only thing that can do that to people.

[ he's immediately left the lounge so they're in the void somewhere aaaa ]
...It was bad enough when it was just Pearce-san.

So it has to be something different, right? He was fine before...
[ ...kazuki's considered the possibility. of course he has. it's the reality shinjuku's been living in for months, knowing every day could be the last.
but that was shinjuku. it was supposed to be different - adrastea said there wasn't supposed to be any danger here. ]
