[ oh my god. his expression also seems to say "oh my god." ]
Were the corpses wrestling back. [ this is a sarcastic question but he seems to pause as if recalling something from his own exploration and it suddenly feels less like an impossibility. ]
also great question, i will put in for healing but he would also just be zoning out by the river and staring into the water like he knows he has to go in but sure as fuck doesn't want to yet. he's also lost in his own thoughts, so it's likely he doesn't even hear ryuji from behind him. ]
He hurries over, but isn't sprinting so much he might scare the piss out of Yosuke. He might end up doing that anyway, he doesn't know any of the horrors Yosuke has seen.]
[ there's a bit of a flinch because from his perspective one minute he was alone and the next ryuji's here, but he doesn't seem afraid so much as momentarily startled.

Uh, you sure you didn't die? [GESTURES TO THE BLOOD.] It was weird as hell, I dunno. You okay, man? You look like shit.
[ help i see. we are in the fine void probably next to the new healing river, because while he knows he should go in he hasn't yet. he's still in his gross clothes with his wounds and singular shoe. ]
Something like that. [ there's a slight smile, even if he doesn't quite reach his eyes. ] ... thanks, Melinoë. I keep thinking about how this place has really screwed us out of our healing, but...
