[ As impressive as sleep-warbling would be... this is not the same, celebratory Richie from just some hours before. Or the one at the gala. This is more like the Richie on the little rocking boat when they'd first met, except instead of a lake there's just a glass' worth of water, and rather than a snake it's the memory of someone else's brother.
It's troubling, though he's not really any closer to understanding it. This Georgie's passing was no doubt tragic, but six—Richie is not a freshly minted 17-year-old himself. How long ago must this have been? He frowns, small and thin. ]
I see.
[ A 'bit' spooked indeed. Rather than depositing himself on the couch, Yusuke stays sitting where he is, in case Richie decides to go back to bed. If he could. Seems a nasty thing to wake up from and risk returning to, whatever he'd seen in his sleep. He eventually finishes wiping away the moisture from his hands, speaking smoothly. ]
It seems he might be haunting you as well. Isn't it strange, that you'd hold onto such ghosts after the end of the world?
