[RL with Zechs]
The virus left Tyki when dawn was breaking, and he stood still and shook his head for a moment, working his way through the memories and the feelings with a sinking heart.
Then the Noah smacked him across the head with its unreasoning rage. He dropped to his knees in the street, shaking and gasping, pain knifing through his head.
"I don't...I don't think that way," he gasped. "There's no innocence. Calm down, Tyki."
Thankfully, he hadn't left the island - of course, he had no way of leaving if he didn't know how to use the Ark. But even more thankfully, the island was all but deserted at this time, and there was no one to watch him shake and cling to the cold stone railing next to the canal as he struggled to recover.
"Zechs," he whispered then, and got shakily to his feet. He had to find Zechs. If he was reacting this badly to what had happened, how horrible must Zechs feel?
