And then Chou's eyes meet Seito's, and everything changes. All at once, the pressure that had been rising in his head and stomach slam forward as the sense floods him like being drowned in an ocean.
That Lust, that Emptiness, all those horrible feelings, the sense of them was overwhelming now that Seito was awake. He can feel it -- oh god, can he feel it now, can he understand why Naoto and Minato didn't trust him, can understand why Baucis was trying to warn him. His own expression has changed to one of disgust, terror, and shock, and he rips his hand away like he's been burned. He knows exactly what you are, Seito, and that unnatural part of him, that part that's too connected to his Persona half to be normal, might be singing alarm bells to you, too.
"Gck..."
It's only mere force of will that he represses the urge to throw up right then and there. Chou pushes himself away almost comically, weakly trying to get to his feet and failing. This is different than before, different than Adachi. With Adachi, he could sense all of this too, but the presence of the Investigation Team meant that most of the impact was drowned out by their souls. Without anyone else here, he can't even think under it, vision swimming horribly and making it that much harder not to retch right there.
"I'll..."
He can barely manage it, choking.
"...Go... get help..."
It's a weak attempt to keep up the facade, though Chou is sure that Seito's seen through it, now.
