K-Kiyotaka?
[ --his slow pace changes into a quick stumble over to ishida. he still holds onto his wrist, covering whatever glow that it gives off but he leans forward to see what's wrong. is he in pain? is he hurt? why is he gripping his face? but ah, right, ishida asked him a question, right? his head's pounding and trying to think is becoming difficult ]

What are you doing here? Are you okay?
