[He has to bite back to urge to snarl that he's not a dog here to do some tricks-- But there's a splintered hole in the wood right at his feet, and since this guy's already got to replace a floorboard or two with it, he's sure he wouldn't care about getting some blood stains on it, too.
So instead he gives an aggravated noise, and moves to pick up the pill they're arguing over. He'll still keep that unflinching eye contact with the guy's dead stare, though.]
Guess I should be thanking you for the free merch, right?
[He can't help but slide in at least one shitty comment-- hopefully one less likely to get him shot since he's doing what the guy says. He'll bring the pill to his mouth and scarf it like a pro--
Or at least he would have, if the feeling of dry tablet hitting the back of his tongue hadn't keyed in that feeling again. He coughs it onto the floor, again getting that weird, glazed look for a moment.
A girl in sterile pale green and red, pressing the pills into her mouth. It's not gentle, she's making choking noises in the vision just like he did in reality. For a moment her eyes go wide--
And again it's over as quick as it happened, and Shinjiro slowly brings a hand up to his head, stumbling backwards.
Maybe he's losing it. He'd honestly think that, except for how that pill he'd choked on had just straight disappeared from where it had fallen on the floor between them.]
