I got a vision about zombies... I think. They were fast and moved in a group and dragged an old man away before we could get to him. I recognized one of them...
Has anyone else had one like this?

i had a vision about hunting a vampire, but i didnt actually see him.
so i guess undead are just
a thing now.

I guess

[...And. Well. Since Noah did ask about it:]

That was her

[The corpse he'd seen before.]

her?
wait you mean that girl you talked about
shes the zombie?

Yeah

[He's... not even sure what else to say about it. Maybe something will occur to him eventually.]

shit
thats fucked up.
sorry tatsuma

[In so many ways.]

Usually

When theres zombies and someone gets caught they become one too right?

[It's bizarre, asking this as though television applies to the reality of a bunch of visions, but...

On the other hand, he's long past questioning whether they're true or not. Either way, they exist, even if it's only through him thus far. And for now, that's enough of a weight to take them seriously.]

yeah thats

thats usually how it goes.

[That's what he thought.]

We didnt make it in time

[He can still hear the old man's scream as though it had just happened. As if he was just there.

Wherever 'there' may be.]

[....

There's a delay on his end. Noah liked horror movies, especially the stuff with supernatural elements. Zombies, demons, ghosts- things like that had always been a draw for him. It's fun.

But hearing that these zombies might be real? That there's a chance what Tatsuma saw actually happened? Suddenly...the faceless mobs that end up zombie food stop being faceless mobs. That old man, that girl ... they were people once. With friends, with families, with hopes and dreams. But now they could be...

...

Noah's chest felt heavy. For all his anger and sullenness, he didn't want people to suffer like that]

im sorry.
im sure you did what you could.

[Tatsuma was kind. Of course he'd try to help them]

Theres too much i dont know

I was with someone else i think he knew the old man

I think we were running to help but i dont know what we could do

[They were, after all, zombies. It's hard to imagine he of all people could be much help against them, and that in and of itself is a frustrating thought.

People died, at least one practically in front of his eyes, and yet...]

i dunno.

youre right, were missing too many pieces.

but i dont know if we even want to solve the puzzle. its so fucked up.

I dont want to

[Which is... weirdly firm, coming from Tatsuma of all people. But at the same time...]

But i dont want to pretend it never happened either

[Even now, he's still got it easy. He's just seeing these things. Everything that girl had gone through, both in life and after... Now, more than ever, remembering her feels critical.]

You havent had memories like that have you?

[It is surprisingly firm coming from Tatsuma, but he can't blame him at all for having such strong, conflicted feelings over it. Who wouldn't? Noah would be feeling the same way in his shoes.]

ive seen stuff, but nothing that bad.

You still have the

[...What was it.]

Flying thing?

Does it still play videos

tim?

yeah he does.

why?

Just curious

[...Right. More explanation:]

Seems like its easier to remember it clearly if you have video

oh yeah, it is.
also way easier to show other people than having to describe it.

Hope it can keep helping you like that
