[ Saitou talked to Souji once, and Heisuke....he hadn't even seen. The only thing that kept him from putting blame on anyone or anything for this was that this happened to him--he had been here, he had left, and now he's back again. So there was a chance they'd be back. From the network, he knows that it's not just them, who have lost people.
It doesn't make it any easier. He's sure it must be worse for Sano and Shinpachi. Probably even a little numbing after seeing it time and time again.
That's part of the reason why he doesn't turn out Shinpachi's offer. Rarely does he drink to forget, but tonight's a night that's good enough for that. So when the glass it offered to him, he only sniffs it once before taking it. ] Is it...sweet? [ Saitou tried a few drinks the night he arrived, at least two with umbrellas in them. He kept away from the ones that smelled like they would put a man under the table. But this one didn't seem too bad. ]
But I imagine it didn't take you too long to get used to the taste.
[ They could adjust to places, clothes, food...all that sort of things.
Adjusting to a lack of certain people, however, is a whole different matter.
He takes a gulp, and wonders if all the glasses were this large. He has a feeling they're going to be here for a while, but he has no intentions of carrying you home, Shinpachi. ]
