第三十二錯覚; 「accidental video」

[When the feed starts, it shows Kanda. Kanda out of jail. Where is he at? Why, he's at the recreational center, back facing the PDA and...

Well, he's shirtless. And at the indoor pool. His shirt's on the floor not far from him, and it looks like it's taken a pretty nasty beating from the rain.

He doesn't say anything, just moving to fix it hair as he tests the water at the pool.

Pretty much all he does before the feed cuts out.

[Ah, his chest... Have a hand on your head, Alma.]

I'm fine. I just can't heal myself anymore.

[He just can't-... Whoa, whoa, WHOA.]

What?!

It ran its course. [Bit of a strained grin.]

I don't see that happening with you, though. You're more careful than I am.

But what do you mean you-...? You're not-...?

But what if you get hurt?!

I still heal, it's just like how anyone else here heals. Like Lavi.

But that's not the same!

I was careless and this is my price for it. I'm fine.

But you just went to the normal jail!

[... Yes, he thinks that crackly-chest and Kanda's recent stupid are related.]

I've been like this for a while, Alma.

Wha-... How long?

...Since Lena and I came back.

... That long?! Why didn't you tell me?

I didn't want to worry you.

Does Lavi know?

....No, he doesn't.

You gotta tell everybody!

I don't, really. I'm fine, Alma.

No! They should know! What if something bad happens and they think you're gonna be alright when you won't?!

Nothing's going to happen, Alma. [Biting his tongue before he can say "I promise."]

You gotta tell them!

I don't want to.

Why not?!

I don't need a reason, Alma. I just don't want to. [Weak grin and some hair ruffles for you.]

I can still fight and I'm fine. That's all that matters.
