[Death is something Haruka's been thinking about in slightly more than the abstract sense in the last three weeks -- possibly more than he's ever thought about it in his life, since despite his more sedate nature he's not actually more given to pessimism than his peers -- but tonight is somehow different. Maybe it's the fact that Michi's still squeezing the breath out of him; maybe it's the vision that time has told him is in the future, somehow; maybe it's just his own stubbornness.
For the moment, he's more focused on moving forward and getting through the night -- on getting all of them through the night, whether or not they're a user under the yoke of AppleNet -- than on the dangers of the process. That's also probably why he only has the usual misgivings about meeting with Ryann, rather than a whole new set involving breaking curfew and a few dozen other laws before breakfast.
He's in the process of kicking the scooter forward again when Michi speaks up, and pauses when he realizes--]
1001. [of course, he'd almost forgotten that the numbers came in a set even outside the app] I know him, I can go with you once Ryann and I are done.
[He's not entirely sure how long it will take, given that he has no idea exactly what Ryann is up to or how they're going to rig what he's brought with what resources she has; but he also has a promise with John to meet up beforehand, and he knows he has to honor it. He owes his friend that much.]
