It'd been a busy day for Yosuke, but in truth it was only a distraction. Every encounter, every room he investigated, every meal he ate and every nap he took were just to let him forget the bad feeling in the pit of his stomach he refused to let himself understand. It wasn't like he'd never had any arguments with Chie before. It wasn't like she'd never stormed off, or that things between them ended on a sour note. It went beyond that. It was this house, it was the danger she was in - that they were all in. She didn't know what they were up against. He didn't either, none of them did! Every night was different, and there wasn't any way to predict what would happen. It was that he'd wanted to apologize and make amends, but they just never seemed to run across each other and it wasn't like he could use his phone to give her a call. It was that at any moment something could happen to her - to any of them really - and he wouldn't be there to do anything about it. All of these combined together to make a giant ball of fear he couldn't find a way to dislodge from his stomach.

That had been bad enough, and that was the daytime.

When he awoke to found night had fallen, he couldn't help the momentary panic that descended upon him. How long had it been night? Where were his friends? Was she - no, were they alright? Had anything happened? Just what was out there? Scrambling to his feet and throwing on his jacket and glasses, he'd charged into the house without thinking. It was only now that he found himself past the Greenhouse that Yosuke forced himself to slow down and think. He was a little ashamed of himself, losing his cool so easily and charging into the unknown. It was the same here as in the TV world - he couldn't help anyone unless he kept a cool head and he'd already broken his cardinal rule of nights in the house: never, ever go out alone if you can help it.

Sighing, he tried to collect his head only to hear a familiar sound. His own voice, then Chie's. It was an argument about something or other, he couldn't tell what. Was his mind playing tricks on him? No, he definitely heard their voices... but from where? Above? Looking up only revealed a ceiling, swirling like he'd never seen before. It couldn't be... but he'd knew he heard it.

Shaking his head out, he finally managed to calm himself down. First things first: find someone else. It was too dangerous to be alone.
