[cachaemic]

Haah... Am I--

[ his voice cuts off for a minute and when it comes back he immediately starts mumbling to himself ]

The candy, it's not here... Did I drop them? I... I know I had more.

Shiro--? Shiro, where are you?

[Slightly sing song~]

Gaaaaan~ Taaaaaaa~

[cachaemic]

Shiro-!

[ there's a ring of panic in his voice, but he's trying to keep it level ]

I had some candy with me, have you seen it?

[amicide]

Why Ganta need candy? Make cookies~

[cachaemic]

Please, this is important! Do you know where it is?

[redeify]

[Siiiigh.]

So noisy.

[cachaemic]

[ he sounds startled at the voice, he forgot that other people could hear him ]

Huh? Who're--

[cachaemic]

Oh, I... I'm sorry... I just--

[redeify]

You just?

[absolute_npc]

Ganta Igarashi, what troubles you?

[cachaemic]

[ he recognizes the voice and suddenly feels guilty for causing a scene when he already knows nobody can help him ]

I... I'm being poisoned. Without the antidote, I'll--

[absolute_npc]

By what?

[cachaemic]

By... a collar that I have around my neck.

[cachaemic]

... Nagi-san!

[ and he brightens suddenly as he realizes that he might not be alone ]

Do you...? Do you have some with you?

[cicumae]

The -- candy?

I'm afraid I'm not sure. But --

[cicumae]

I'm so sorry, I should have explained this sooner. As far as I know, the collars are deactivated upon arrival in the city, most likely due to disconnection from the DW computer network.

How many days had it been before you last had some when you arrived here?

[subdeify]

Is something wrong?

[cachaemic]

N-no, I'm--

[ and now he's wishing he hadn't freaked out quite so publicly ]

Not any more, thank you...
