[ He's stopped trying to drag himself at this point, because he can't focus on moving and talking to Alfie at the same time. It's amazing the tablet is picking up his voice at all. ] Can't breathe right. Lightheaded, trying to. Trying.

[devoutish]

This might be your missing thing.

Have you got all your supplies on you?

[bywolves]

[ He does, thankfully, and re-checking gives him something to do. Counting his weapons and how much food he has and that everything is still there gives him something to hold onto. ]

Yes. Yes, it's. There. All there.

[devoutish]

You need to stay inside. You can't crawl through the ice tunnels on your own.

[bywolves]

[ Nope, there it goes again. ]

Can't stay. Too far. You're too far. I can't get anywhere, I.

[devoutish]

You'll freeze, or you'll be vulnerable to attack. Stay. We can get there in a few days if we hurry.

[bywolves]

Alright. Alright, okay.

We. You're with Tifa.

[devoutish]

Yeah, I found her yesterday.

[bywolves]

[ His next reply, around ten minutes later, finally comes through audio. He sounds wrecked, but he's calmer, at least. ]

Is she okay?

[devoutish]

Better, now that she knows you are.

[bywolves]

[ Good. Silence, then: ] When you came back. You couldn't speak, but could you breathe? Draw in deep breaths.

[devoutish]

Yeah. You can't?

[bywolves]

Couldn't. At first. I pulled myself out of a bag and couldn't think straight. Couldn't breathe. Felt like I was going to die all over again.

[ There's a pause. ] It's gone. That sensation. I'm just tired, now. Was that what coming back feels like?

[devoutish]

It sounds like panic. Terror.

[bywolves]

I don't do that. [ Panic, he means. He swallows hard around the rise of - not panic in his chest and keeps steady. ] Did you feel that when you came back? I wanted to know if it was part of the revival process.

[devoutish]

No. I didn't.

[You had a panic attack, bro. Own it.]

[bywolves]

[ nO ]

Great. Came back broken. [ Sigh of IRRITATION. ] No headache, at least. Did you hear what happened, or did Watson lie to you?

[devoutish]

You got over it.

[Which is the important part, as far as Alfie is concerned.

But that next question...]

He gave me the shorter version over the tablet, right, and the longer version when he stopped by. He tied you up?

[bywolves]

[ Guess who is going to ignore all that Emotion about dying and coming back? This guuuuuuy. ]

He tied me up. After I told him I wasn't planning on doing anything else. Told him he could lock me in the room on my own and that I wouldn't resist.

Wasn't going to let him tie me up. Not with Ecks there. And look what happened when he did. I was right.

[devoutish]

[Alfie's voice gets even tighter - quietly furious. The addition of Royce actually trying to work with Watson, and that still happening... it makes things even worse.]

He's coming down to the tunnels, to look for Peggy Carter.

[bywolves]

I want nothing to do with him. [ Royce is sharp about this too. ] I want nothing to do with him or the patchwork doll or House. I'm done.

I was at the damn tunnel. And now I'm here.

[devoutish]

Yeah, right, exactly. Why do you think I'm warning you?

[bywolves]

You are going to be the only one who doesn't think I want revenge.

[devoutish]

I believe you, mate. Tifa will, as well. Yeah.

When I saw him, he was feeling very, very guilty. I like the idea of him punishing himself forevermore, instead of being punished by us.

[bywolves]

I do as well. He should feel guilty, the stupid, moronic brideeth.
