[This is normally where he'd reach out for her hand, since he's a very touchy-feely person and gets his sentiment across through little gestures like that. TRAGICALLY HE CAN'T THIS TIME THOUGH, so he just lets his sympathy show on his face instead.]
[She sees that concern, of course, and where before she seemed surprised... Now, the look she gives him back is grateful. Of course, it fades slightly when she grows more somber, before she speaks.]
[FOR A SECOND HE FORGETS THERE'S A BLOND CHUUYA AND IS JUST LIKE "WHAT THE FUCK" INTERNALLY but then he remembers... God.]
Ah... [He didn't really know either, but it's kind of strange in that usual death-y detached way to think he'd just been shoving drinks at Logy and dragging Chuuya around for snacks.]
Ah-- of course. I'll be back once I find out, alright?
[PLEASE CLEAN THE CORPSE WATER OFF. Not that he actually, like. Minds corpse water on the floor or anything but Beck probably wants a break from being covered in blood.]
Once a week, but multiple in a day, maybe? Unless this is another situation where something went unexpectedly wrong, like how Prompto was an anomaly of sorts.
[But he's at a loss for answers and just looks faintly frustrated.]
Might be best to try getting on the good side of the dearly departed, too - not ours, but the ones that came before us. I've heard they aren't very fond.
From Zero, who heard it from Nathan. That could certainly work against us, if we're dealing with harmful entities on one end and actively unhelpful ones on the other.

Were you the ones to find the body this time? One of them, anyway.
[Considering there were three mentioned in the announcement. LITTLE DOES HE KNOW...]
no subject
One in the pool, and one in the hot tub, actually.
no subject
Who was it this time?
no subject
Logy and Chuuya.
no subject
Ah... [He didn't really know either, but it's kind of strange in that usual death-y detached way to think he'd just been shoving drinks at Logy and dragging Chuuya around for snacks.]
—Do you know who the third one was, yet?
no subject
No... I came right back here. Do you know?
[Because corpse water, and all that.]
no subject
No idea yet, but I was planning on asking around soon.
no subject
[...]
In the meantime, I think I'm going to take a shower, actually.
[Corpse! Water!]
no subject
[PLEASE CLEAN THE CORPSE WATER OFF. Not that he actually, like. Minds corpse water on the floor or anything but Beck probably wants a break from being covered in blood.]
no subject
Whenever he returns, he’ll find her sitting on the bed, significantly cleaner. Still, as he enters:]
Who is it?
[It would be a lie to say she hasn’t been growing more nervous.]
no subject
ANYWAY, in he comes, now the bearer of bad news and also more dead people. At least they don't have four bodies... Nikkari.]
It was Aizawa. [Which, like... terrible as it is, he also couldn't help but feel a little bit relieved that it wasn't anyone he was closer to.]
That's our three, then, hm...?
no subject
She lets out a breath she didn’t realize she’s been holding in. It seems a little bit awful to her, too, to be relieved... And yet.]
Tomorrow’s going to be... tricky.
[To say the least.]
no subject
Anyway they can be in the awful club together. He sets his hands at his hips, huffing out a little sigh that's cut a bit short from mild agitation.]
Unfortunately, I doubt things will ever be getting less tricky here. [DEMONS!!] But I'd still hoped we'd have a little more time than this.
no subject
[She sighs.]
no subject
[But he's at a loss for answers and just looks faintly frustrated.]
no subject
no subject
[So this is looking
bad.]
no subject
But... In the first broadcast he made to us, he said he hoped we could avoid that, right? So - there must be a way.
no subject
There's always a way! No such thing as a situation you can't get out of, you know. We'll just have to keep looking.
no subject
[Maybe.]
no subject
[WHICH IS, hm, a problem.]
no subject
Who'd you hear that from? Nathan?
no subject
From Zero, who heard it from Nathan. That could certainly work against us, if we're dealing with harmful entities on one end and actively unhelpful ones on the other.
no subject
[rude af, ghosts!!]
no subject
[Maybe they're just sad and bitter ghosts who want everyone else to suffer...]
