"Uh, yeah." He rubs the back of his neck, glancing aside as he leans in the doorway. "Kind of like I was becoming part of it, but I didn't go anywhere after all. And I guess it left and all of that stopped."
Totally normal and reasonable things, and not at all kind of alarming in hindsight. But he's fine! He thinks. "It really wanted to share peace."
"That creature doesn't know the meaning of peace."
His infection had been a state of unending torment that followed him beyond the destruction of his body. To feel his mind slip away, his control leaving him, had been absolute hell. Nevermind the physical pain it caused.
He still wakes at night thinking of it, sometimes.

"I don't really know why it left, though. It was just like... waking up? When the infection stopped."
