[STOP IT'S NOT HIS FAULT THE DEMON FIRE HAD RELAXING FEELGOOD EFFECTS WHILE THE FOUNTAIN DOESN'T... also he runs cold so the fire was nice.
He doesn't react to Lucas's shock, really--he mostly just eyes him to see if he's okay, though it's pretty easy to tell that he's back to himself given that he's capable of normal sentences.]
Nothing. [...Amends--] Kate and I went in that creepy house earlier.
[For a second, he almost wants to ask what Lucas is apologizing for--the events of the house and the death reveals truly overtook his thoughts. But it's really hard to forget dying again even though it happened quickly, so it only takes him a second before he grimaces slightly.]
...I mostly slept. [This is my explanation for why he didn't do much pre-break-in. It's fine.] What the hell happened? I thought you were off the drugs.
...It might. [If it was a fog effect he's not discounting it.] But I'm working on a way to ensure that I can be taken out from a distance safely and quickly.
[The way this is giving him Allen vibes. God. Normally he'd offer to cut down Lucas if he goes crazy again, but today, after everything that's happened... mm.]
With just one person? [The unspoken vibe of "what if you take them out before they can do it"]

[Oh break-ins...]
no subject
Anyway he's covered like a nun so his injuries can't be seen, but he's favoring a foot as he approaches because it's still broken. AN IDIOT.]
--A break-in...? [NOT AFTER DYING.] But-- ...Did you... Did this happen to you there?
no subject
Yes. [WHO COULD'VE DONE THIS... WHO PUT HIM THROUGH BOTH THINGS...] It's not fatal.
[He'd be super dead by now if it was]
no subject
...But is it painful?
no subject
He shakes his head]
Not this time.

[WHY IS THIS HAPPENING MORE THAN ONCE. STOP BEING CRACKED INTO PIECES.]
no subject
[He would know by now if he was going to]
no subject
...If you say so. [Quiet. And then:] But you died before. ...I wished to ensure that your return went smoothly, and apologize.

[JUST ASSUMES IT WAS DRUGS]
no subject
...I lost myself a bit, even without them. And when I woke up here, I couldn't think about anything outside of killing.
[When your cyoa effects are just your drug effects when you take 40 doses at once.]

[Or did he just burn out or something]
no subject
Scien was able to knock me unconscious. Though... it wasn't until I'd killed you, Nehan, Will and Boothill. [GOD.]
no subject
What the hell was everyone else doing?!
[He doesn't know Lucas is Unstoppable]
no subject
Being thrown around and trying to leave, mostly.
no subject
He huffs, mildly irritated, but it's over now as far as he can tell, so.]
Should we be worried about it happening again?

It would be something that could be used by multiple.
[Like they're taking out a polar bear.]
no subject
Good. [Alright. Well. As long as he's planning for contingencies, that's good enough for Kanda.]
no subject
...Though I do hope that this will be the last of it...
no subject
[This probably isn't a serious suggestion
Probably]
no subject
I'll be put under again if need be, but I've been stable since the early morning.
no subject
[Not that he won't at least try to cut down Lucas if he has to, but he'd rather not have to deal with it... that's not his job...]
