[it's almost easy to forget that just a few days ago mineo was a useless lush || this close to sleeping on the ground because he couldn't be assed to get up.
since right now - and since the announcement - he's been an angry, growly mess. the disdain emanates from him in waves, even as he seems to be checking every single doorway, every corner of every room for - anything? he's not even sure what he's looking for. a corpse, maybe.
and he's on his way out of the room, almost like he doesn't even see molly - and that's why he bumps shoulders with him.
... but he's just aware enough to reach out to steady the other just in case, and offer - ]
Gu Yun-san and Amane-san said they could hear a treadmill coming from the gym, but I couldn't hear it. I checked out the simulation room after Shi-san sharing too and - nothing.
But if there's enough of you just hearing or seeing things...
He wasn't with his roommate, and so far he wasn't in the planetarium, the Simulation Room, the Rec Room, the Common Room.... Or maybe I'm asking the wrong questions and wrong people but -
If you get an idea, let me know. [ah, a little late - ] Please.

... my bad.
[so at least he still has his manners!]

It's-- fine. Did you see the elevator?
no subject
Yeah.
But I couldn't find anything. Did you....?
[what the hell]
no subject
[Great, good good good.]
There's blood on the walls of it. Heart shaped. When we touched it, more appeared in its place.
no subject
mineo pauses at that, frowning.]
No, that's... There's no way I would've missed that.
So it should still be there? You couldn't clean it? Not that you should.
[but just. as a general sense that it was more or less stuck]
Who else was with you?
no subject
[He just looks a bit. Disturbed.]
Lenore. Yuel. They saw it too. Lenore seemed to think it tasted real.
no subject
And you? You think it's a vision?

[He misses Caleb a lot right now.]
So then a lot of us are having them, then. No one could see the way the stars fell either, unless you were in the planetarium.
no subject
[this is putting him in the ground. he's pinching his nose at that. magic???? oh, this is too much for him.]
Is that where you were, Molly-san? Any chance Suoh-san was with you? [a beat] No accusations for the record, it's just -
No one's been able to place him, so far.
[so mineo's asking everyone who names a new place]
no subject
[Just nodding at the first, then stopping because--]
No. He wasn't there. Beau and I. Harrow. Shi Qingxuan and her friend, Ming Yi.
no subject
he sighs at that.]

no subject
.... me neither.
[he'll admit that. he knows that he comes off as an idiot. he doesn't do much to actively help himself away from that.]
But I'm still gonna try. So... I hope you do too. I think you'll do more good than I can.
no subject
That is quite a bit of confidence in my bullshit, friend.
no subject
mineo looks away. don't get him wrong. he believes in molly and genuinely thinks he can contribute a lot if he tried.
he just also thinks that doing more than him isn't a high bar, not when he's the type of person that he is.]
.... maybe. Not taking it back, though.
