[Kadaj turns on the video, holding it with one hand. He gives it a dazed stare, saying nothing and lowers it a little more so that his torso can be seen, littered with open wounds which he hasn't bothered to heal, his visible arm in the same state.]

I was bored.

[He drops the communicator, and it turns off.]

Kadaj-san! You have to be more careful!

[adventlead]

Yeah probably.

[guardianjoker4]

You need to get that cleaned up and dressed properly!

[adventlead]

I am dressed.

[guardianjoker4]

No no! Dress the wounds! You need to get those wounds dressed!

[adventlead]

Why?

[guardianjoker4]

They'll get infected. You have to clean them and dress them.

[adventlead]

My whole being is already infected.

[guardianjoker4]

E-eh? What do you mean, Kadaj?

[adventlead]

I mean I'm just a disease!

[guardianjoker4]

Eh!? No you're not! Kadaj is Kadaj.

[adventlead]

Kadaj is a virus.

[guardianjoker4]

I don't understand.

[Small child is so confused.]

[adventlead]

Ever since coming here I'm a virus. Who knows? You may be next.

[guardianjoker4]

Next? For what?

Kadaj isn't a virus, though...
