[Eichi-kun sure is clinging to him, just like a spider monkey. He must be really unsteady on his feet right now! ... or so Hiyori thinks, not realizing (or perhaps refusing to realize) that the nail-digging might signify another kind of need. What can he say? The idea of taking a more hands-on approach with Eichi-kun literally doesn't occur to him. It's Eichi-kun! The day he does that for Eichi-kun is the day pigs fly. Having a noble heart is one thing, but the Tomoe family doesn't offer that kind of charity service!
... Besides, it's not like Eichi-kun really wants that, either. Does he even know what he wants, in his drugged-out state?
But it's not like he really thinks tossing him in a pool will do much good (other than providing a laugh or two.) Hiyori's not really sure what will help, since he's never been drugged like that before. His only point of reference would be the Springtime game. Those effects weren't caused by any food, that was his suit affecting him (or so people said). But when he thinks back to how he felt those first two days, before he and Jun gave into the inevitable, well...
Still, this is different, isn't it? Those effects lasted all week, but drugs usually wear off! So even though taking matters into his own hands didn't fix his problem during the Springtime game, that might just suffice for Eichi-kun, or at least take enough of the edge off for him to endure the next few hours. Which means Hiyori just needs to find him a bathroom or something.
... even though he really, really, really never wanted to think about Eichi-kun doing that at all. Ugh!!!
His own train of thought makes him grimace (now they look equally bothered!). He's also not sure where to find restrooms around here. But, as though reading his thoughts, Eichi then starts to redirect him, and it seems he's trying to steer him towards... ah, yes, the bungalows. Suddenly it clicks. "New beachfront accommodations for guests," the message said. This is where they stuck Eichi-kun.
But why, oh why, oh why did they kidnap Eichi-kun?
He jolts when Eichi heaves a shaky breath against his neck. Some of his hairs are now standing on end. Don't get him wrong, he's not in that kind of mood! It's just that the back of people's necks is a vulnerable area, that's all!]
Me? Hm, well, for me it's been...
[His shoulders sag.]
Almost four months.
[Boy, does that dampen his spirits even more. Not that he wasn't aware of how long it's been, but saying it out loud makes it horribly real.]
Not by choice, mind you. If there was a way out, I would've found it by now. But since there isn't one, I have to make my own somehow, and that's shaping up to be a huge pain.
[Then he pauses when something else occurs to him.]
What about you? Were you forced to cancel SS after four of us vanished without a trace?
[Slowly, he turns to look at Eichi over his shoulder.]
