Under the Waves
Neocros couldn't even think, everything felt like a blur when Dash brought him to Twilight Sparkle's huge castle. Next thing he knew, he was on a couch with a washcloth on his head and fell asleep.
He slowly opened his eyes, feeling a headache. As his vision focused, he saw Twilight and Rainbow Dash were talking, presumably about what had happened. Upon noticing that he was awake, Twilight quickly assured him he was alright.
"What... wrong with me...?" He asked, exhausted.
"There's nothing really wrong with you, but it seemed you were on the verge of some kind of heart attack." Twilight explained, which made Neocros anxious. "However, everything seems to be fine with you physically. I'd recommend a checkup though just in case."
"Phew, at least we survived that beast." Dash chuckled, but Neocros wasn't laughing. He was horrified by what this beast was intending to do to him. He looked at Dash for a moment, before trailing off to think of what that creature was. His gaze was locked on somewhere behind Rainbow, as Dash and Twilight noticed he had gone quiet. “Uhm…Neocros?”
Neo glanced back at them, only making eye contact for a moment before looking around.
“Sorry. What was that thing?” He asked. Twilight placed a hoof on her chin.
“I don’t think I’ve seen anything like Rainbow described. Perhaps we should talk more in the morning.” She said, thoughtfully, with Neocros noticing the digital clock indicating that it was nightfall.
...
It had been a week since his encounter, and ponies had stopped going missing. Though it was a relief to everyone in town, it was unknown why it stopped. Over twenty ponies, including mares, had gone missing, and so far they haven't been recovered, but that number was about to increase...
Neocros was behind Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, with Twilight walking alongside Fluttershy as Dash flew above. He looked at the blades of beautiful grass blending into the golden sands next to them on the path. Rainbow's shadow hovered around them as they strolled along. They were heading toward the beach after the girls received troubling news, and he chose to tag along.
Two coast guard ponies were behind them, and Neo heard them quietly whispering about him. It made him saddened that they were talking about him, but he didn't have the courage to speak about it.
"We also had a lifeguard go missing in this area," one of the coast guards said, "which would explain why we have no idea why the reef died so suddenly."
"You sure?" Twilight asked. The two stallions nodded.
"She didn't check in at the main building, and her family said she hadn't returned home since leaving for her night shift." the other guard said. Twilight, as well as her friends were all dreading the return of the epidemic.
Neocros shuttered, chilled to the core over this. Just why were people just up and vanishing like this? It was making his anxiety worsen, especially with the thought of Rainbow vanishing, or his friends. As they approached the beach, the water dragon heard seagulls, and the peaceful sounds of wind and water singing in sync. It helped that no one else was there with them, for that the beach closed due to pollution. Yet, it seemed calm here, perhaps the dead reef was further down? He wasn't given much knowledge on where it was.
After around five minutes of walking, the coast guards brought them to an area down the beach, near some rocks and a small cave. The reef would have been a brightly colored underwater forest of various coral and tropical fish, easily seen through the clear water, and it is a common spot for sea ponies to visit. That was not the case upon arrival. The reef was gray and lifeless, with dead coral almost invisible beneath the clear blue waves. On the shoreline, black sludge with what looked to be purple veins in them littered the sand, even making the water near it turn purple, with the edges where the pollution and water meet was a bright red. Patches of dead coral stuck out from the sludge.
The coast guards warned not to come any closer, but the mere look of the mysterious pollution made everyone nearly gag, despite them standing a fair distance away. Twilight and Fluttershy were absolutely baffled, never having seen this kind before. Neocros couldn't even look at the toxic sludge, feeling like he was going to be physically sick.
"What could've done this...?" He thought.
"Somepony or something must've dumped sludge into the reef overnight, as it can't be due to natural causes." The coast guard suggested, looking down with shame on his face as Twilight had a hoof on her chin, trying to figure out who or what could've done this.
Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash flew high into the sky, being careful to be distant from the sludge. She wanted to get a bird's eye perspective, but while she was in the air, Neocros wanted to call out to her to be careful. He was not sure how poisonous the pollution was, and feared for her health. Biting his lip, he asks Fluttershy if she's going to be okay.
She told him Rainbow knew what she was doing, but she could tell he was nervous. They were all on edge over this. The string of disappearances had caused the entire town to up their security, combined with paranoia settling in with the locals, to the point where some actually accused Neocros of being responsible, after all, the epidemic started not long after he moved in. At least two ponies had approached him once, saying that it’s rather suspicious that he came to town before ponies went missing. Twilight and even Rainbow were furious when Neo finally told them about it. Needless to say, he hadn’t had ponies approach him after that, but he still felt like just because they won’t approach him, doesn’t mean they didn’t think he’s responsible.
Above them, Rainbow Dash had a greater view, and it wasn’t any better. Some of the fish and sealife had floated to the surface, stained black by the toxic waste, and though Dash couldn’t see it with her vision, the fish were tattooed with the same veins as seen on the sludge at the shore.
What unnerved her though, was there was a nearby seagull trying to get out of the water, but it had sludge on its wing, making it desperately try to fly for freedom. Rainbow would’ve tried to save it, had it not been for the seagull going under. It didn’t surface.
Feeling chills down her back, she felt really bad for not saving the seagull in time, but figured that if she did try, she would’ve gotten infected as well.
While Fluttershy and Twilight were looking around, Rainbow flew back after her aerial view, and hovered at their level. Neocros wanted to stay as far away from the pollution as possible, and find any clues to help out his friends.
Despite his anxiousness, Rainbow Dash safely landed next to them.
“What did you see?” asked Fluttershy,
“It looks worse from up there. The whole reef is engulfed in it!” She replies with a sense of worry. There was a sense of dread in the air, while Fluttershy and Twilight tried to figure out what’s causing this, Rainbow Dash decided to hover over to Neocros, who was pacing around nervously as the sky blue pegasus could see the look his face was making.
“Neocros?” she asked, prompting the water dragon to notice her, “What’re you doing?”
“Not much.” He simply replies, but it’s evident he was still bothered by the pollution. He started walking away from the site, as Rainbow Dash was wondering whether or not to follow him.
He didn’t walk very far before he took notice of the cave. It was further down the beach, on a small island that was connected to the shore via a few large rocks. Neocros saw a faint shadow receding deeper into the cave.
He blinked, before glancing back at Rainbow.
"Dash? I thought I saw something." He said, before pointing toward the cave. "I saw movement in the cave."
“Huh? Really?” She followed his hand, and saw the cave entrance. She didn’t see anything, which made Neocros feel like he made a fool of himself. Normally he’s very chill about stuff like this, but not today. As he moved further down the shore, but still within range of the girls, he noticed some faint tracks. He called out to Rainbow, telling her he saw footprints, which naturally caught everypony’s attention.
Twilight and Fluttershy approached, and saw the tracks. Although faded, they were large enough to remain solid for a good while. They were tree trunk shaped, with three toes in the front and two smaller ones on the back of the heel.
“Huh, those weren’t there when we inspected the site.” one of the coastguards said. Twilight found this both odd and intriguing.
“What could’ve made these?” Rainbow asked, Fluttershy shook her head.
“I don’t know any animal who made these tracks.” Fluttershy replied.
…
As Fluttershy and Twilight were investigating further, Neocros and Rainbow Dash were walking down the beach. Rainbow Dash was curious as to what was in the cave, but was also a little weary, after that time she was ambushed by that monster, but she made sure not to make it obvious to anypony.
Neocros didn’t want anyone seeing his anxiousness again, and knew Dash was aware of it. While they were traveling side by side, Rainbow noticed Neocros doing something strange with his hair and fingers.
"Why do you keep pulling your hair like that?" Rainbow asked. Neocros would dig his fingers into his long hair, before pulling it, seemingly combing it over and over. It was hard for him to explain. Rainbow Dash would see him do it from time to time, but didn’t know how to feel until she decided to ask him.
"Uhm... I don't know.. I guess it's... to help me ventilate..." He stuttered a little. "Like... If I'm stressed... or afraid... it helps me stay stable..."
Rainbow Dash found this behavior odd.
"Why does it help you?"
He took a second to think of a reply, and though normally he'd feel pressure to reply before somepony moves on, his brain seemed dull enough to speak. "... I don't know."
Rainbow Dash squinted, but shrugged it off. They glanced around with the sun on their backs. While strolling, he couldn't stop thinking about that beast they encountered over a week prior. It was scary just how freakish the thing was. As they continued walking, he remembered something he thought of around the time after encountering the monster. Neocros wasn't sure how to communicate it to Rainbow, but Twilight encouraged him to speak with her more often, since he was mostly known as the town mute, and the scapegoat for the disappearances.
"H... hey, can I ask you something...?" He asked, judging by the tone of his voice, Rainbow knew something was wrong. She had learned from prior experiences with him to listen carefully and be patient.
"What?"
"I... remember that monster...?" He asked.
"Yeah."
"W-well... I've been getting these brief.. episodes where I get sickly. It just happens, and I don't know why..." He said, before following it up with something his intrusive thoughts have been saying from the beginning. "I think it’s linked to it... somehow, someway. I felt the feeling when facing him."
"Huh? That's weird, but it's probably just a coincidence."
Neocros glanced down at the sand below them, trying to figure out if it truly was a coincidence or not. After the walk, they finally reached the cave entrance. They were about to enter when Dash remembered something, “Hold on, we don’t have a flashlight!”
Neocros scratched the back of his neck.
“I’ll be back, you stay here.” she said, before bolting away toward Fluttershy and Twilight. Neocros stood there, a bit taken aback by her immense speed, and waited patiently for her. After only a few seconds, Rainbow Dash stopped midair in front of him in a huge breeze of wind. She was holding a flashlight in her hooves. “Back,”
Rainbow gave the torch to him, and he flicked it on. With it, the two journeyed inside. With careful steps, the two entered the dimly lit crevice, Rainbow noted that it was much cooler here.
Inside the cave, there was a noticeable dip in elevation, with the cavern going deeper into the earth. Stalactites and stalagmites surrounded them while they followed the prints, which seemed to get easier to see with each step. However, it was getting darker the deeper they went, daylight from the entrance not reaching far enough.
Normally the tunnel would be glowing with bio luminescent microbes inside, but the cave was dark.
Small droplets of water fell from the ceiling, forming small stalactites while exploring the tunnel. In front of them, there was another tunnel that led toward their left. Neocros considered going inside, but Dash wanted to keep going forward. Following her lead, they kept going forward.
While walking deeper and deeper, the tracks slowly started to fade. Neocros tried to figure out what could’ve caused the pollution. It pretty much left everyone puzzled as to what happened. The tracks had led them in here, but Neocros was having second thoughts about this. It feels like they were being… baited.
“Uhm… maybe we shouldn’t go any further…” He said, which made Rainbow puzzled. How could they be…
Just when he had said that, there was a quiet, but audible booming sound. Pausing, they looked around, as it sounded like it came from behind the walls. After a few seconds, a low rumbling was heard, with a little bit of vibrations on the floor, as if something was… erupting beneath them! Rainbow Dash and Neocros looked at each other, before they heard something splashing and swooshing… behind them.
When they turned around, Neocros pointing the flashlight down the tunnel, they saw just in time large amounts of water rushing toward them!
Neocros gasped, as Rainbow Dash yelled out in fear!
“Ru-u-u-un!” Rainbow shouted as she bolted forward, with Neocros not far behind, the duo running as the entire tunnel started to quake and crumble! Bits of rock and ancient coral fell from the ceiling as Rainbow dodged each one, Neocros struggling to keep up. He could feel the water droplets rushing past him, touching his back as he could barely catch a breath!
Rainbow Dash zig-zagged through the air, avoiding falling debris as her eyes were wide with fear, Neocros sharing her expression as he tried to keep up!
Suddenly, one rock hits Rainbow’s wing, causing her to fall to the ground. Neocros ran past her due to his momentum, before turning around to see her on the floor! He darts over and helps her up, immediately picking her up, which surprised Dash, but she couldn’t reply because the water was only a few feet away when Neocros bolted full sprint!
Neo didn’t even notice how fast he was running, nor was he paying attention to the fact that he was carrying Rainbow Dash over his shoulder.
The water was gaining on them, but Neo ran faster than his legs could carry him! Dodging each falling debris that landed in front of him! He could feel the waves nearly touching his tail while running!
In front of them, a small light began to glow, it was sunlight! Neocros was huffing, and Dash knew that he couldn’t hold out for much longer, so she tried to motivate him.
“C’mon Neo! Keep going! You can do it!” it worked, for that Neo felt for her, realizing he can’t just let the waves crash on him. They were running uphill now, it was subtle, but the light was noticeably rising with each step.
The water threatened to pull them under, he felt those same droplets hitting him again.
Finally, after what felt like a whole minute, the exit shined in their faces, before the water forced them out of the tunnel!
Rainbow Dash yelled out, as Neocros didn’t have time to react upon impact!
Splashing into normal water, Neocros quickly rose to the surface, wincing as his eyes were forced shut, disliking the feeling of water in his eyes, especially sea water. Some also went up his nose, causing him to cough and groan.
Despite being a water dragon, which is already an unfamiliar creature, he couldn’t open his eyes underwater, let alone stand having water on his face. He spat into the water, disliking the taste of salt, and shaking his head.
When he did manage to get his eyes open for a few seconds, he noticed Dash wasn’t surfacing, and he instantly knew something was wrong, before desperately searching around the water, trying to see through the surface. His heart instantly sank when he saw a multicolored blur beneath the water only a few meters from his right.
“Oh no, no no no NO NO NO!!” He thought, swimming over and without thinking, he ducked his head underwater, holding his breath. He outstretched his arms to try and feel for her, but it was no use. He was blindly flailing around as Rainbow Dash sank deeper. She stared up at the dragon, briefly thinking to herself how dumb he seemed.
Neocros tried to open his eyes underwater, only to instinctively shut them. In the brief moment when he was seeing through water, he realized Dash was not in front of him. In reality, she was sinking nearby behind him
His heart was pounding, making him groan as a huge air bubble escaped his mouth. The anxiety, fear, and worry was so overwhelming, he felt he was going to pass out. He can't even see Rainbow underwater and his body is calling it quits! He didn't want to give up, he cared for her with every fiber of his being!
It's then, he realized something, he could hear everything. The water didn't fill his ears, but rather he was able to sense so much noise. That alone almost sent him into a panic-filled meltdown!
Among all the noise, he heard the air escaping Dash's mouth, the air bubble sent chills down his spine.
"Buck it." He finally opened his eyes, the water felt cool to them, and he almost shut them again, before he realized that it didn't hurt as much as when he did it the first time. He opened them again, and this time, he kept them open. Realizing Dash wasn’t in front of him, he turned around below him, he saw Dash's eyes had closed, and it seemed she had gone limp! "Noo!"
He quickly dove down to reach her, not noticing that webbing formed between his fingers and toes, and the hair at the tip of his tail became almost... paddle-like. He swam as fast as he could toward her, everything inside going silent as all other noise didn't matter anymore to him, for that adrenaline rushed through his system from his drive to save his crush!
She kept sinking, air leaving her as she felt herself fading! The last thing she felt was a hand grab her hoof, and yanked her upward! Her head lowered as he wrapped his arms around her, his right arm locking underneath her shoulder while the other hand wrapped around her rear. He made sure to secure the limp pegasus in his arms, and he quickly swam upward with just his feet and tail!
With his heart racing out of control, he held her close to him tightly, not wanting her to slip from his grasp. The water pressure seemingly didn't affect him, as he felt her slipping from him!
He grabbed her again! His tail wrapped around her briefly, before he locked his arms around her, and this time he wasn't letting the pressure take her away from him again! Neocros swam back up once more, this time his dorsal fins glowed, and suddenly she wasn't being dragged down anymore.
"Please don't die!!" He cried in thought, the surface just feet above them.
He finally surfaced! He didn't need to take a breath, for that he wasted no time in taking her to shore. He kept staring down at Rainbow with fear and dread on his face. He realized that the shore was a little far, which gave him a sinking feeling.
It’s here he realized she wasn’t breathing. His eyes widened, and his heart was about to explode. He held her in his arms, and stared at her for only a second when he felt something he hadn’t before.
Without thinking, he kissed her on the lips, and he suddenly felt water rushing into his throat. He almost recoiled, but kept calm, as his dorsal fins glowed vibrantly while absorbing the water from her lungs. Neocros held her gently before she suddenly began coughing into his mouth, causing him to release her.
After a few seconds, Rainbow slowly opened her eyes, and was met with bright sapphire irises staring at her. Neocros was holding her before staring off to the side. Rainbow froze. Usually she'd bolt away by any form of affectionate touching, but Neocros wasn't doing anything to make her uncomfortable, and when she glanced around, she saw that no pony was around. Dash blushed, staring back at him.
"... y... you okay?" He asked, voice shaky, and on the verge of tears, which he had shoved down for the entire ordeal. Rainbow glanced at him, her eyes widening upon seeing his now watery eyes.
"You...you just..." She was lost for words,
"I... I thought I lost you..." He cried, bowing his head and turning away, hiding his tears. Unlike every stallion she ever met, he was actually concerned for her privacy, and would constantly beat himself up if he even remotely stared at her in an awkward way.
"... I know you're strong... b-but... but..." He stuttered, "... I can't imagine.. I don't want a beautiful girl like you dying..."
Cringing, he shut his eyes in fear of repercussion, but instead of being yelled at, when he glanced back, he saw her expression was different. Her eyes were wide, her face as red as the red part of her mane, and her mouth agape. He feared he offended her, until she looked away, a hoof covering her mouth, as if hiding a smile. Neocros remained quiet, unsure what to do in the moment. Does he tell her he likes her? Does he stay quiet? Does she already know? So many questions raced through him. Rainbow Dash looked back at him.
“…Do you like me?” she noticed his eyes darting around, before he met her gaze. For a moment, Neocros felt calm seeing her. He was still a bit afraid of what she’ll say, but the fact that she’s alive made him feel better. Neocros nodded.
“I care for you… I love you…” he said, glancing away once more, fearing for his skin and afraid of hurting her. Instead of getting a huge protest, he instead heard a faint gasp from her, and Dash stared at him. She looked calm about this, which made the anxiety go down for a bit.
Rainbow was surprised, he showed no indication of loving her, but yet now that he said it, she started to see the hints. He always seemed on edge whenever she was unlucky enough to encounter Zephyr Breeze, but Neocros remained stoic, despite the fact that he'd have his eyes on them every time she had the misfortune of having to hear Zephyr flirt with her.
He was always looking out for her, even though he very much didn’t hang out with the locals often. He met her gaze again, and this time he tried to retain eye contact. Rainbow Dash was blushing, but smiled.
“Heh…you may not be the best, but you’re awesome when you’re yourself. I like you too…” she trailed off, when she noticed movement in the tunnel behind Neocros. In that exact moment, Neocros felt the all too familiar sick feeling in his body. For a moment, Neo tried to refute the feeling, only for him to notice Rainbow Dash glancing at something behind him, her irises shrinking as her mouth grew agape.
Rainbow Dash saw a pair of gray claws grip the sides of the tunnel they came out of. A Large beast began to emerge from the tunnel, eyes black and empty. It had some kind of goop connecting its jaws together, with a sneering look on its face. Chills ran up her spin, it was the same creature that chased them!
“N-Neo! Watch out!”
“Rainbow, hold your breath, please.” he said, with a shaky voice. “Quickly…!”
She took a deep breath, and held in. Without looking behind, Neo wrapped his arms around her and swam forward, diving into the water before he darted through like a seal! The monster made a gigantic splash as Neocros used his tail as a rudder!
He held her to his chest, as Rainbow held her eyes shut, before Neocros zoomed across the water!
Fortunately though, the beast wasn’t as fast as he was underwater.
He was close to the beach, before he breached the surface! Jumping out of the water and onto shore, he ran with Rainbow in his arms. Rainbow coughed a bit, and was about to protest when she realized they were on the beach!
Running as fast as he could, Neocros sensed the monster not far behind them, but he was now huffing and puffing, the exhaustion now catching up to him!
Not far from the cave, Twilight and the others were running toward the cave, having heard the blast from the water and hoping that their friends were okay.
As Neocros ran, he briefly glanced back, only to see the beast not far behind. Now that it was on the shore, the earth shook with each step it made, and it made a loud roar, which sent low frequency vibrations through Neocros, causing him to sprint faster and more desperately!
Rainbow Dash looked over Neo’s shoulder, and saw the beast.
“He’s gaining on us!” she cried. Neocros grunted as his legs started to ache a little from running. The monster growled, admitting a voice.
"You're not getting away this time." The beast said, voice gurgled and incomprehensible to Rainbow, but only Neocros understood it, and it only freaked him out more.
Ahead of them, the small patch of land stopped, with the only thing connecting them to the mainland were a path of semi-large rocks, making a sort of bridge. Neocros saw this, huffing as he had to think fast!
Neocros sprinted forward, narrowly dodging a swipe from the spikey arm of the beast! He knew he’d need to slow down to jump across each rock, but just before he could jump, he saw Twilight and her friends approach the area!
“Help!” He shouted, with Rainbow turning around to catch a glimpse of her friends.
He slowed down a little, just to jump to the first rock, then the next, and then the third before he heard the beast stomping right behind him!
It opened its mouth, admitting a gurgling sound, with a faint red glow in its throat before it was hit with a beam of Twilight’s magic! The beast stumbled backward, roaring in fury as Neocros was able to leap across each rock, landing safely on the sand!
It’s here he finally released Rainbow Dash, letting her run since her wings were still wet from the sea water. She ran up to her friends, as Neocros caught up to them.
They reunited with Twilight and Fluttershy, and all of them were about to run again when they noticed that the monster was backing off. It let out a loud bellow in rage, but didn’t immediately chase them.
“What is that thing!?” Twilight said, with Fluttershy staring with fright, the purple alicorn turned to Fluttershy, “Fluttershy, do you–”
“I don’t!” Fluttershy replied.
For a moment, they’re able to get a better look at it. It had a large mouth that hung open on its abdomen, hair covering its forearms, or at least looked like hair, it had tree trunk-like feet, a long thick tail, and its chest had an open cavity that exposed a strange, spongy red core. The sight was horrific to say the least.
“Is it just me, or is that thing bigger and more…zombie-like, than before?” Rainbow asks, which confirmed Neocros’ suspicion as well. It appeared the creature had gotten larger than their last encounter.
“Is this the creature you guys saw a week ago?” Twilight asked, which the duo nodded in response. It seemed the creature was not used to seeing more than two targets, and started to back away beneath the shade.
After a few seconds, the creature disappeared back into the water. The water started to bubble, and darken. The area where the monster sank was now starting to resemble what was seen at the shore…
“Huh, guess that solves the mystery.” Rainbow muttered, referring to the pollution. For a moment, Neocros was paranoid he got pollution on him, but it seems that he swam so fast that it didn’t affect him or Rainbow.
…
As the sun was setting, Twilight had decided to contact authorities regarding the creature. Neocros and Rainbow Dash were sitting near an ice cream stand outside of the beach.
Neocros rubbed the back of his neck, staring at his ice cream while Dash got hers. He was still bothered by that monster, just why was it so angry at him? He tried to distract himself by glancing at Rainbow, but not outright staring as to not appear creepy.
“Hey Neo,” Rainbow began, holding her favorite flavored popsicle, “Thanks for saving me back there, I never seen you run that fast before!”
He only hummed in agreement, giving her a brief nod. Rainbow Dash and Neocros both ate their ice cream, with Rainbow eating hers in less than a few seconds, but unfortunately gave her a mini brain freeze. Neocros asked if she was alright, which she said she was, even though beneath it she was cringing from the pain.
After finishing his ice cream, they were about to go their separate ways when Neocros remembered something. He turned around, and called out to Rainbow. She hovered down to his level, and asked what was up.
“Uhm.. Rainbow, you busy tomorrow?” He asked. Rainbow Dash rubbed her neck.
“Yeah, why do you ask?”
Neocros glanced down at the ground, and feared he might come off as demanding, but then again he already confessed but was interrupted by that monster, so he thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask.
“Can we go somewhere… on sort of a date?” It took all of his courage to get those words out.
Dash’s face lit up, and now it was her turn to look away. Neocros’ anxiety was out of control at this point, but anyone looking at him from the outside wouldn’t exactly know that. She was unsure at first, but after a few seconds, Rainbow smiled, and nodded.
“Sure, I’ll need to finish some weather work and other things, but I’ll see what I can do!” Rainbow smiled, which in return, Neocros’ eyes lit up, and gave her a small smile, before nodding. With that, after a few more minutes of hanging out, they both had to part ways due to the rising moon.
Needless to say, so many emotions were flowing through him upon returning home and laying in bed. Neocros was under the covers while holding onto a pillow, which he had been doing for a while, imagining it as Rainbow.
Admittedly, he felt something in the back of his mind, a dark feeling that told him his feelings were fake, or that he was wasting his time. He would’ve refuted them, but due to his anxious self, he couldn’t write them off either. Until he went on this time, there’s no way of really knowing for him.
He couldn’t focus on them though, and needed to sleep early…
