We're surrounded by corpses of...I don't know what they are. I've never seen animals like that.
[ he's never really thought of the word monster. for someone like him who was raised in the mountains, he knows there's so many animals he's never seen, so to him, they might as well just be that. ]
[The flashlight is easily moved in Arven's shaky grip.]
Y-Yeah...
[Mabosstiff nudges against his Trainer, causing him to put that free hand atop his head for support. He's not alone. Mabosstiff is here. Everyone else is here. They'll get through this, just like the last one.]
You've...? [He almost asks if Soujuurou's seen corpses before, but he doesn't follow through with it.] N...Never mind. I don't wanna think about this anymore.
[ he looks at mabosstiff and nods in appreciation for his help, and then nods once more at arven. though whether it's in response to the unsaid question or in agreement that maybe he shouldn't think about this anymore, goes unsaid as well. ]
Seafood is definitely out of the question for a while. [ he continues running up, urging arven. ] But someone needs our help. We can't panic now.

[ the fuck is that???? soujuurou doesn't stop running, but his face is definitely pale with shock as he sees those corpses.
those things look horrifying...but if they're dead, that means that something even worse killed them. ]
What killed them...?

They became prey.

[Arven doesn't even know what to say to that. All he can do is shine his flashlight around to try to see for himself.
He almost drops it when the beam of light passes over a monster corpse. His other hand clamps over his mouth to stifle a scream.]

[ he'll gently try to move the flashlight away to some other direction. ]
Looking at corpses is always difficult for me too.

[The lighthearted comment goes a long way, snapping Arven out of his fear for just long enough to remember why he's here.]
Right. C'mon, Mabosstiff, let's go. We don't wanna stick around and wait for the algae to catch up to us, anyway.
[And off they go, catching up to run behind Soujuurou.]

[ And boy he hopes he's wrong. Hi. He sees those corpses, too. ]

[Big talk coming from Sayaka, but--]
If it's managed to do this much, then...we're going to need to keep our guard up. Right...?
no subject
[ Because. Yikes! ]
no subject
[ he looks at the others, and feels somewhat sick to his stomach. he wants to run. ]
To think that this is someone's mind... we have to help them.
