[ sorry for dead castmate hours making you take on 400 pcs on a friday. rough. sidon is awake whatever the hour, restless as he makes his way around the ship. near one of the locked areas, he'll call out— ]
but he's still moving. he's standing, not to be found sitting even once on this friday. he's a mess, because SOMEONE had to go and fucking die which left him assistant-less. clothes a mess, hair out of its braid, truly just the sight of a hamster left to fend for himself and not doing a great job of it
his emotions are still not quite right, as if manufactured. frustration, bewilderment, dissatisfaction - all of it paling in comparison to this gnawing, grinding sense of anger. it builds and builds, leading to a crescendo until it almost reaches the point of overwhelm, making it hard to think—before it suddenly does that very same stall. stop. disappears without a trace.
until it begins again, as if the rage refuses to die.]
State what you've found before you give me one of your overly involved speeches about friendship.
[ wow!! no, now is not the time to talk about feelings and friendship and mutual collaboration. he takes in the anger, accepting it whenever it starts and stops and starts and stops even if it makes his fins shift and bristle, then shakes his head. ]
I can tell you what happened to us, but you likely understand more. You were with them both, weren't you?
[ or so he assumes, since his understanding is that dahut and luke were in the same place ]
[ what can one do but carry on? it's the most important time to make progress. sidon is full of grief, but it's not out of control, kept out of his 'report.' his thoughts only seem to occasionally wander to vacation for whatever reason. ]
Myself, Viktor, Todomatsu, Liu Shouxue, Owner, Diluc, and Eunhyuk were locked in the showering area. [ closes eyes ] We were locked in, could not communicate with anyone, and received the same message that you all did—the one where it seemed the senior staff was attempting to... fix the locks. Nothing else was amiss.
I lost consciousness—as did everyone else. But we were all safe upon waking.
[ another fin flutter. obviously, this was not the case for lounge crew. ]
Due to the connection this week, we all experienced Luke's poor health condition before he died. We all passed out before I could examine the body to determine the state, but it's best to assume that's when he passed.
Dahut was fine. When I woke up, he wasn't.
[he
truly wishes he had more information than this. it grates him.]
[ they are really working with empty air. there is a dip of grief at the mention of luke's condition, but whether something exacerbated his condition, they won't know like this. ]
I suppose all we have is... that something happened at the galley, and the simulations room.
[ it does not take a genius to see that the giant locked rooms around are probably related. ]
Viktor surmised that perhaps whatever damaged the door to the bar—it could be some sort of danger amidst the ship. [ is that more comforting than a person having done it? he doesn't know. ] But I have seen no trace of such a thing, if it exists.
We have had the stipend explained to us! [ anyway. ] I just hadn't given it much thought, before. But I feel more confident that we'll receive it—we have been working hard.
[ ... ]
Ah—I'm sorry! You don't need to hear such things. We have much more to worry about.
[ though talking about this makes him feel calmer, at least. ]
It isn't inane...! [ THESE ARE NORMAL CONSIDERATIONS. he's having to think on this. ] But I started considering it more seriously today. We did put in excellent work on Wednesday, after all.

Explain to me why you are possessing thoughts of vacation.

he seems briefly surprised out of his downturned emotions when scien asks him this. ]
Vaca... oh. Well—we are going to receive a stipend, aren't we? It just seems to me that it would be best used on a vacation.
