["Hm this situation is vaguely inconvenient" SURE DOES CHANGE FAST!! Before Souji can even crack a dry joke about not mentioning that things aren't dangerous when they don't know the situation, the scenery has taken a sharp shift.
He doesn't recognize anything about what he's seeing, or the phantoms of the experience he's now living second-hand. He doesn't recognize that man or the wildness in his approach, doesn't understand the desperation in him even if he does - a fleeting sort of understanding, like a dream within a dream. What he's saying is painful to hear. Almost - definitely? - more so than the physical blows that rain down.
Escape is close. What escape? A hand is offered. (Are you a martyr?) He's not sure why there isn't any anger to be had here, but all the same, that seems to fit perfectly.
And then, with that promise and extended hand, they're back to where they started.
Souji's visibly quite startled to suddenly be returned to a more present reality, and definitely shaken by the experience. It's a sharp difference from the lazy memories that had woven their way into his dreams, weeks ago.]
--Jae-ha...?
[His voice is small and quiet and asks to understand.]
