CW: impending panic attack

[The world... breaking. That's... it's uncomfortably close to Yaldabaoth. Ren doesn't like it. He doesn't like it one bit.

Not to mention, the way everything keeps looping around, like some fucked-up version of Mementos. Is that how the people who disappear get lost?

He's not feeling so well all of a sudden. He remembers a brief encounter with Sumire at the start of all this- and Futaba- god, Futaba- that's his sister. His sister may be lost thanks to this- this anomaly- what if she also got- what if she's hurt?

His mouth feels dry. His head hurts, and his joints ache. Worse than usual.]

I... [he sounds quieter than usual. Tense. He wants to keep looking, but- they weren't here. This isn't where they were lost. If he wants to find them, then...

His voice comes out stronger when he speaks up again. Like a leader.] We have to leave. Now.

[Who knows what'll happen if they stay much longer? What if they get lost in this anomaly as well? He can't lose Akechi too- and he hasn't know Flowey for that long, but- he can't- he can't-

He's already dug the Escape Orb out of his pack, ready to slam it down. They have to escape. They have to escape.]

Wh-- Ren? [He didn't expect him to take it that badly. (Maybe this is harder on people who can care about others.)]

... Probably nothing more to find. Akechi, come on.

[truthdecided]

[Ren's reaction, so severe and extreme, draws Akechi instantly to his partner's side. He even disregard's Flowey's prying eyes to preen him. Something small. Something grounding.]

Yes. We might as well retreat for the time being.

[He nods at the orb. Go ahead, Ren.]
