[ It's true, it doesn't matter what it was. Not whether it was a dream -- whatever constitutes as a dream or reality here -- but that it was. What was happening, the people there, those left behind. Robby thinks about the bodies, lifeless and left there. They couldn't bring anything back to bury, put to rest, and he's never thought about a thing like that so heavily before. He's never thought about his body after death, but he thinks about the one he and 2B left behind, and it drives him crazy.
Their walking have led them far, to where a small bridge crosses over where a river runs. Lumenflowers bunch together near its start, the sweet smell being carried along the water, the colour an oddly red-tinged. It's here that Robby does slow his walking, to come to a stop. Hands resting on the rough brickwork, and he isn't sure what he's doing anymore. It's just always like this, when he lets his head get fucked up, waging a war between the need to remember, and the part of him that doesn't want to. ]
You were at work. You didn't have to come out with me.
[ He might finally be acknowledging how crazy it is to drag out Vi like this, even if she came by her own volition. But people shouldn't do that, not for him. It's stupid, he's wasting her time -- it's no as if either of them can change anything.
He just needs to ride this out until it stops. That's how this works. ]
