Otto:  There was a figure standing with his back against the night, atop the slope from which he had fallen. Slowly, the figure glided down, his contours gradually growing more definite. “…Otto?”

Otto:  “Yes, indeed. Good morning. Yes, it is I.”

Subaru:  “Morn…?” With that out-of-place greeting tossed toward him, the perplexed Subaru noticed it, too, albeit most belatedly. The aura of dawn had already spread throughout the world, announcing the impending end of the night. Just how many hours had he wasted in a daze, gazing at an empty sky…?

Otto:  “It is morning. So you did not even realize that fact? Serious symptoms indeed.”

Subaru:  “Can’t deny it…but what are you doin’ here?”
gpt
Otto:  “For the moment, I shall set aside what brought me here. More important is the situation you have been placed in, Mr. Natsuki, looking like you are dreaming as you mumble things to yourself over and over.” Ignoring Subaru’s surprise at the hours having passed, Otto placed his hands on his hips and made an exasperated sigh.

Subaru:  Subaru wobbled to his feet, using his sleeve to wipe away the dirt on his cheeks. Only a short time had passed since Otto had seen him at another strange place the night before. Not only had Otto seen him crying when Patlash was consoling him, but he also saw him in a place like this, covered in mud and shame. “Is that really something to care about at this point? In the few days since I have met you, Mr. Natsuki, I have only seen you clean at the Duchess of Karsten’s manor, I believe.”

Subaru:  “…I’m not really feeling up to joking around. More importantly, you…”

Otto:  “You have reached a dead end? You wish to know what to do? Yes, I understand.” Prompted by Subaru’s words, Otto patted his own chest in a rather flippant manner.

Subaru:  Subaru was taken aback by the sight of him being so carefree. But he wanted to cling to that humorous sight. At a time like this, he didn’t mind if Otto just wanted to put him at ease. If there was even a slight chance to improve the situation, he wanted to hear it. “Please do not rush me. All right? This requires preparation.”
human
Subaru:  “P-preparation…”
gpt
Otto:  “Yes. First, take a big breath, nice and slow…” Presenting a hand toward him, Otto indicated to Subaru that he should breathe deeply.
human
Subaru:  Subaru didn’t know what meaning it held, but he did as he was told, putting his breathing in order, closing his eyes and letting oxygen fill his lun—

Otto:  Instantly, a hard impact pummeled the side of his face, and Subaru collapsed to the ground once more. Unable to break his fall, Subaru tumbled and fell face-first into the dirt, eyes spinning. He shook his head, lifting it, and wondering what the heck had happened; seeing Otto shaking a fist, he realized he’d been punched.
