Day 48

[hypertoxic]

Are you still alive?

[strategicnaps]

[Alive and a lot better.]

I am. What's up?

[hypertoxic]

Remem8er what you asked me a8out seeing things?

[strategicnaps]

[--Oh.]

I do.

[A moment:]

I don't want to assume, but is it happening to you now?

[hypertoxic]

Noh-Varr has 8een sitting a8out two feet away from me for the past five minutes.

01
I've stopped hallucinating. It took a whole day, but I've stopped. So it'll go away eventually.

02
Do you want me to come over?

[hypertoxic]

01
The whole 72 hours? Jesus.

02
This is going to really suck, isn't it?

03
He keeps talking a8out music. It would 8e kind of cute if it wasn't so incredi8ly maca8re.

04
May8e. I don't know if I want company right now. Then again, I would give pretty much anything to pretend he wasn't there.

[strategicnaps]

That's right. Maybe it was easier for me because I've heard of similar things happening before to the people I knew.

[Honestly, that kind of made it harder. Because that kind of mental scar is... hard to overcome, to put it simply.]

Well, give me a call if you do decide you want company. [No tips on how to block out the hallucinations, because...

Yeah, he tried a lot in those 72 hours.]
