[Voice post - worst fear virus.]

Really, Shirou, if you're home for the week, you should at least answer the door. [Issei sounds about as calm as normal, if a tad annoyed.] I told you I was coming over, so you have no excuse. Ah, well, it's for reasons like this that I have a key.

[The sound of footseps.] Not in the living room... He's probably in the shed and couldn't hear me, I suppose. [More of Issei's footsteps.]

It's locked. Shirou, are you in there? [A moment's pause.] No answer. Maybe he's out w-

Isn't that blood?

[There's a few loud blunt sounds, like someone throwing themselves bodily at a door, then a loud crash.]

Shirou?! Please be okay, please be okay, this isn't allowed to happen, that sort of thing can't happen if I'm here, you have to be okay, please- Why, why aren't you breathing, you can't not be breathing, I have to protect you, I won't forgive you if you don't start breathing this instant! Are you listening?! I'm telling you to start recovering! Please, please, please-

How could I let such a thing... I wasn't here fast enough. I won't forgive myself for not able to protect you.

((Issei's worst fear is being unable to protect a friend. And before anyone asks, the dead body is a virus-induced illusion - I won't really kill off Shirou as an NPC.))

I can't get him to breathe- I'm trying to do something, I really am, I promise.

I didn't say you weren't... Why are all these things happening to everybody?

I don't know. I'm a little preoccupied to see what's going on in the community. A virus that inflicts such cruel things on us is - I can't believe such a thing would happen...

I'm sorry! I didn't mean to be so insensitive!

I don't really care about sensitivity at the moment.

It's not your fault. It's mine. I should have - I should have been able to do something.

No... I don't think it is. You're a nice person.

But I'm a failure if I allowed him to be hurt.

I wish I knew what to do.

So do I...
