[At first, Tetsuo's almost ready to actually say something to him, for once. But that inclination dies down fast as Ikki's hands close around his comm, playing the video he'd just restarted.]
Wait-
[Tetsuo doesn't make more than a halted lurch forward to try to grab it, watching for Ikki's reaction with trepidation. That damn obsession he had with going over and over what happened.... of course someone would catch him at it. Of course it'd be an eerily familiar stranger. His life couldn't actually get worse. It's too much to hope for that this guy sets it down before he sees what happens.
Together they'll get to finish what Tetsuo started.
This time, he finds himself wanting desperately to turn away, pull that jacket tighter around him and hide somehow. He doesn't, but the urge only builds. If he could just melt away onto the bed and stop existing.]
