Y-yo? Meguro?

Don't jinx it. What the fuck is goin' on? Where 're you? M'up to my ass in fuckin' swamp-gator-backwoods bullshit, what the fuck? I'm glad this shit got bombed now!
[why does he sound sort of relieved to talk to him]

I...I don't know! I can't reach Raikou-san! I-I don't know where I am either, but it's very c-cold and there's a b-blizzard and...
B-Badou-san, there are bears here! We're in d-d-danger!
[Brrrrr. Shiver shiver.
There's some relief in that frantic explanation, somewhere.]

I can try callin', if ya want.
[a pause -- snow? a blizzard? he tries to conjure up what that looks like from movies, from TV]
[but bears distracts him from trying to form something coherent, because he knows exactly what a bear looks like from too much Animal Planet and Discovery channel]
Jesus shit. Anybody with ya that can kill bears? Ya could sleep inside 'em or somethin'. M'with a bunch'a creepy buff psychos who can punch alligators open so it ain't too bad except at night where ya can't see 'em. -- Uh.

I-I don't think it will reach him i-if you're on the same landmass as I am!
[Maybe portions of this island were different than the others, maybe if he looked far enough into this blizzard, he'd get to a different climate-
Crunch. Crunch. The sound of footsteps on snow, if Badou even knows what that sounds like.]
N-No, I woke up on a s-shoreline alone... [A stuttered breath.] I'm searching for o-others.
[He has to keep talking, keep moving-]
Alligators? S-Stay away from the water!

You ain't got nobody with ya?
[a pause; he doesn't know what that sound is at all, pictures rocks and gravel coloured white]
[he rubs the sweat off the back of his neck (his hair has been matted with mud and he's filthy, everything just sticks to you)]
I don't think we're at the same place. The others think there's more -- islands... they wanna build a boat, but fuck that...
[the vocabulary is new, stilted, awkward in his mouth]
Ya can't stay away from water in a swamp. Ya been inna blizzard before?

No, I d-d-don't...
...A s-swamp?
[It was too much of a radical change in an environment to be feasible, so he accepted Badou's hypothesis of multiple islands immediately.]
An i-island would make sense... B-but how did they appear s-so suddenly?! What is the p-purpose of this?!
[It was a reason to stop. Don't continue further looking for him. He's probably not even here.]
I-I've been in snow before, but... but this i-is nothing like a-anywhere in J-Japan, even in Hokkaido! T-This must be the arctic!

...It felt like wakin' up in that shitty fucking town again. Roofies or somethin'.
[frustrated growl]
I knew some shit like this was comin'! Nobody fuckin' listens! He's runnin' a test or experiment or somethin', or maybe it's a game or both...
[frowns on the other end of the call, growing more anxious about the reason for their move (and more anxious about Gau, alone, in snow that even he, someone from the surface, doesn't quite know how to deal with)]
[helpfully]
-- Arctic. That's the one up top, right? Ain't people died in the arctic?
