[HEWWO ALPHINAUD... Well. That sure was a Sunday, wasn't it... Whack. At some point after the heals and/or generally tiredly trying to patch themselves up, Souji is going to seek Alphinaud out with Saizo in tow. This time he's holding his pig like a little safety blanket... Though he, at least, seems more or less back to his usual even temperament. No more panicking! No more sudden fits of murder!
Whenever he spots their sweet local cannibal nudist, wherever he is, Souji will raise his free hand and call out:]
After receiving his own heal, dealing with the general frenzy of their return, and cleaning up as best he could, Alphinaud is seated within the library—with a cup of tea, obviously. He isn't reading, just... decompressing. ]
—Oh. I am... considerably better than before, for certain. You look better, yourself.
[He also feels like if he goes too ham he'll rip all his magic stitches, so he's trying to behave, moving a little more slowly and cautiously compared to usual as he takes a seat across from Alphinaud.]
...It's been a while since I've experienced something like that, though. And some of it was unfortunately quite surprising.
I have heard much of what occurs during such ventures, but experiencing it for yourself is... [ He exhales, gently. ] Would that I could put it in the back of my mind.
[He needs to get better at dissociating, like Souji! Who has already boxed that up and tucked it far away so he doesn't have to look at it...]
...There didn't even seem to be any point to it, this time. Normally, people will receive-- tokens or items, things of use, yes? At least, that's the way it was in the castle.
[But they really just got chewed up and spit out and for WHAT.]
[Yeah at least he's got amnesia so he only remembers one death! Now with all of these other deaths added to it but they're not permanent so it's all gucci,,,]
Mm... At least now the others will know to be on the watch for such things. [That's the one good part! No one has to be launched fully unexpectedly into this nonsense!] --Is there anything that I can do, though?
[To help in any way, now that it's all said and done.]
[THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY WERE HIS TICKETS STOLEN BUT THEY WERE STOLEN BY A MURDERER. Souji smiles, but it seems like a nearly reflexive sort of expression.]
...Yes, that's-- I wish that I could do more to help with that, especially given the fact that this will almost surely happen again to others.
[Unfortunately, he never had the chance to earn tickets to get them stolen in the first place.]
As do I. [ SIGH. ] Mayhap I should have pressed further about the possibility of regaining my healing magicks... Tickets are going to be a finite source for us here.
[They're going to be an even more finite source if people keep mugging the dead.]
Mm... Even if we don't have access to anything so useful as that, perhaps we could at least ask for a medical kit? Something with proper antiseptic, bandages, sutures and the like.
[Souji already feels tired thinking about what they might have to be dealing with later down the line. They are dead... and yet..... they simply cannot rest???]
Mm... I do, as well. Though at the very least, I think enough of us have seen dire combat that we could fashion some extreme medical care if we needed to.

Alphinaud-san... How are you faring?

Indeed, it was similar in Wiwaldi. And yet... ... I wonder if it is the result of our memories being used as they are this week.
no subject
...That might be the case. It did seem to borrow from Si-san's memories, after all... And from all of our own, I assume.
[He didn't recognize the other two figures attacking their group, but he guesses they were each something painful for Alphinaud and Clementine.]

It's a grotesque display, though that would be in line with what we all generally expect from this place already.

Nay—you have done plenty already, and besides, you need your rest more than I.
But I shall be penning a letter on the morrow—that the living should not take any more tickets from the deceased.

no subject
...I had intended on asking Vi-san if that is a possibility we should worry about, actually.
no subject
[ ... ]
Well. To speak more grimly, I think it a possibility. Our circumstances in death are... highly unusual—unheard of, even.
no subject
[He's not a stranger to the weird idea of "you can get a body again after your first one is killed", either.]
If it's a possibility, we'll want to prepare all the better, then.
