[ without yu or dave to act as a literal support, it doesn't take long for yusuke to pretty much give up on holding up his own weight and sink slowly down to the snowy ground instead. he doesn't feel... sick, and fhere's no urge to dry heave; he just feels like someone took a spade to him and hollowed him from the inside out.
even the apparitions vanishing as quickly as they appeared isn't enough to fill that hollowed sensation with relief - it's just too much too quickly. even the bitter anger he wants to feel at the sight of madarame isn't enough to make an impact. he just feels like if someone were to pick him up and shake him, he'd rattle uselessly.
the sad, small whining of the wolf seems quiet and distant to his ears, but it's enough to draw his attention to it. as cowed and sad as it manages it look, he can't say he feels forgiveness. what next? he wants to ask. is he going to see Haru next? is something terrible going to happen to her? Or someone else - all of his friends? Are these illusions going to start picking off his entire support network bit by bit? but when he opens his mouth to try and say all of this, nothing comes out. even when he clears his throat - dry and pathetic.
what next? he thinks, as loud as he can, watching as the wolf seems to shift slightly, as if it's about to move again. he wants to tense, prepare for a strike, but the way it rears back and howls, as though beckoning them to follow is... not what he expected. at all. ]
