[ Pour another shot out for this neurotic wreck, Zack. Makoto's not anywhere close to recovering even when he's on the emotional rebound, movements too blocky, mechanical.

He almost walks past him at first, for all the expediency of getting from Point A to Point B in record time, even if there's nothing in particular waiting for him anywhere. Haku, maybe, even if his cat hasn't stopped yowling since Haru's disappearance. He hasn't heard from the others since, but that's largely his own fault — a severe disinclination to check his CereVice for anything at all.

They disappear with their names. The very first time, it'd been like Rin and Kisumi never existed, their names and belongings erased, residence hollowed out like a tomb.

Rin was the first to go, but the rest of them fell into step like a neat, neat line, Gou, Haru, and Rei —

Coming to a standstill, Makoto stares with a vacancy to his gaze, only to soon avert his eyes. ]

Yeah! Yeah. I mean, why wouldn't it be?

[ A pause. ]

What about you, Zack? Have you been doing alright?
