He seemed to of just let it all out for a few , mumbling incoherently under his breath. I only felt a pang of guilt and sympathy for him as It was partially my fault that he was like this. He was limp from the hysteria, his breathing was broken up between sobs; wasn’t clear if he couldn’t move or wouldn’t move because of this moment of total despair.

I don’t know how to properly comfort somepony during moments like this personally, I mean, yes, I technically do, but that is normally when i’m around the girls…

With Jeff on the other hoof, a totally different situation. I mean, What can I do for a human that is pretty much clinging onto me like this?! I didn’t or couldn't say anything to him just let it all run it’s course before he finally started to pull himself together. The steam that was strangely emanating from his skin had slowly stopped.

“S-Sorry,” he finally spoke, his voice a little hoarse and cracked from the weeping session. “I, I don’t th-think anyone wanted to see, that.”

while he spoke I pulled a handkerchief from my saddle bags and floated it to him. He lazily took it then blew his nose with it before letting his hand drop into his lap. I hope I have a good a memory of all this as I previously admitted to have, this moment is really worth keeping in my notes for sure.

“Let me up, need to get up.” he finally spoke clearly as he tried to push his hands into the floor to slowly lift himself up. when he wasn’t leaning against me, I got back up to my hooves while taking his hand in my magic as he got back onto his feet.

“A saddening revelation,” Zecora spoke somberly, “Yet, expect it a single step onto the path towards recovery.”

“Right, Recovery…” he grumbled as he collected his shirt and coat to redress himself. “Similar thing they say to cancer patients before dropping the terminal illness info bomb on their existence!” he buttoned up then slid his coat on.

“Can we go?” he asked abruptly, I could swear he was trying to be as polite as he could, “I don’t think there is anything else we can do here.” but then again, I couldn’t tell. He rushed towards the door, “I do however, do thank you for the eye opener, was quite an experience.” he helped himself out the door before I could even get my saddle bags back on.

“Do forgive him Zecora,” I smiled bleakly at her, “I don’t think he isn’t right after what happened.”

With no real reply to give, she simply gave me a “Mmm-hmm.” before I hurried out the door after him. Closing it behind me before hurrying after him, he had put a bit of distance between himself and the hut. He didn’t go far as he stopped and stood at the trail entrance.

“Jeff, wait up, you remember it’s a bit dark for anypony to be wandering without a light right?”

“Yep.” he was leaning against one of the posts, that stood as the entrance to Zecora’s front yard, with arms folded, his reddened blue eyes were gazing absently at the ground before him.

“Jeff, I-”

“hm?” he looked up at me annoye, I noticed his talons, or fingers I think they really were; were drumming along his arm.

I held back any words of anything that wanted to reach out to him but I just shook my head before illuminating my horn again.

“Nothing, Let’s get back to town.” I walked passed him to start on the trail back out of the forest, I glanced back to see him falling in step behind me.

We didn’t say anything, more like I felt apprehensive to try to say anything or talk about anything other than what we just discovered. I, I felt only sorrow and sympathy for the human while also sensing the tension in the air around us. The walk through the forest felt like forever but ended quickly as we remerged into the more civilized part of Equestria.

I remembered his request before we entered and started distracting myself with routes to avoid most of the hoof traffic in ponyville that would get us back to the golden oak or to his place. Either way, we need to get to somewhere.

All the while, before, during and after the walk through the everfree, he remained quiet for the majority of the time, sometimes taking glances at me then at the scenery around us. Maybe he too felt the awkwardness of this silence was a little much but he probably didn’t want to say anything that didn’t sound mean or anything.

When we started seeing proper trees, he paused in step to look at one of them. “The heck?” he looked at something then walked off the path towards a particular tree.

He stopped to look at something, I caught up to him to see what he was looking at. Sure enough, it was another envelope neatly pinned to the bark of the tree. I could only expect a single pony to do something like this. He yanked the envelope off, opened it and removed the letter from within.

“What is it-” he raised an index finger to me as he read it. He then shook his head annoyed again.

“Fuck this pink bitch!” He crumpled up the note before tossing it over his shoulder as he stomped off back towards the hoof path, “Not really in the mood for your riddling notes!” I caught the note in mid air then brought it to me.

Uncrumpling, thank Celestia that he didn’t tear it up! I took a moment to straighten it back out before reading it’s message, or at least what pinkie left for him.

Not very poetic is she? folding the note and tucking it into my saddle bags, I took off after Jeff who was already nearly disappearing over the hill towards town.

“Jeff wait up!”

I huffed when I heard her voice. A part of me wanted to just stop and say something for being such an ass towards everything, but my mind was still in full system shock from what I seen. How could I forget? It would be forever burned into my mind. This curse, whatever the hell it is, is bad and from what I could tell from everyon-pony, there is little hope for getting rid of this madness!

I turned to watch the lavender unicorn catch up to me with a bit of ease. I could feel myself getting annoyed with the hold up. I just want to go home, or that ramshackle of a dump and forget that This place, me and everything in between didn’t exist!

“I don’t get why can’t she just come out and just talk to me instead of this clue-game-bullshit?!”

“I uh, Wouldn’t know at all,” Twilight struggled to think of something no doubt, “It's not like her to do this kind of thing,”

“Let me guess, another thing that changed when I came around?” I turned and started for town, not really giving a damn if she kept up or not.

“Jeff, wait,” WHAT NOW?! I stopped again, turned on heel and looked at her.

“I don’t think-”

“Think what?”

“oh uh,” she bit her lip in thought then glanced at ponyville. Following her glance towards town, I could see that it was still pulsating with activity of the daily routines of each pony’s lives. None of that really mattered to me for, what now? I don’t have anything in this world except these clothes and whatever little shit I gotta call my own in this god-forsaken world!

“um,” she looked back at me then looked at my coat, “We should, uhm, get that fixed!” she exclaimed quickly.

“I don’t think we should be bothering Rarity with this.” I stared blankly at Twilight. What the fuck was she trying to do?

“Nonsense, she did just give you all of those clothes, I doubt she’ll be bothered with repairing your coat.”

throwing my hands up, “Alright fine, let's go, just, don’t expect me to be anything but friendly for the time being.” We took off from the main path and headed towards that park like place for a second time. Only this time, Twilight was walking with me instead of Little spike.

I was numb to whomever was watching us if anypony was near us.

The day faded towards the afternoon as we made it to the carousel boutique. Could see a finely dressed, satisfied customer as we passed her towards the front doors.

The doorbell chimed as we entered. Around us, I could see a few other customers checking out Rarity’s wares. Either nit-picking her design work or having trouble picking what would look good on them. Most of the racks, once covered this morning, now uncovered to reveal the clothing to the world and any would-be-buyer of these fancy threads.

“Welcome to the Carousel boutique!” a familiar, yet cheerful, voice came from behind the counter, “Wait, oh Twilight, Jeff, welcome!” she had just finished with another purchase before leaving the counter to approach us.

I felt a pang of guilt to see the smiling, purple haired, unicorn trot up to us.

“What brings you two to here at this-” her two toned, blue eyes took one look at my coat.

“-Oh Darling! what in heaven's name did you do to your coat?!” she gasped, her horn glowed and I felt my arm being lifted up to her to examin.

“Wolves…” I replied flatly.

“What?” her eyes widened

“Weee, uh, took a haphazard trip to Zecora’s earlier.” Poor Twilight explained, averting her eyes, ears flattening.

Rarity gave her a look of one would a best friend give that pretty much said, ”your fucking stupid.” before looking back at the extend of the damage to my sleeve.

“You should of gotten a hold of me or any of the other girls before going so that we could’ve gone with you both.” she scolded politely, “You know that the Everfree forest has been acting stranger than normal as of late.” she glanced back to her, “Even you said so yourself.”
“Yeah, yeah, I know…”
“It wasn’t her fault that we got jumped by fucking wolves.” I shrugged casually.
“The damn forest remembered me and tried to finish what it couldn’t fucking accomplish before…”
out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a customer glanced our way after I spoke to look scornfully right at me before walking towards another clothing rack with an audible ‘humph!’

Even Rarity gaped in shock at my words, “Such language,” she commented before tugging at my coat. causing me to follow her as she went back to the register counter; well, more like I was being dragged along to be more accurate.

Jeff leaned against the counter with arms folded casually while Rarity finished things up with one more purchase before flipping a sign on the countertop.

“Rarity,” she looked at me pausing in step.

“hm?”

I leaned over the counter, “He went through something that kinda put him in a-”

“-Bit of a foul mood?” she finished aloud while I tried to keep it quiet.

“Y-yeah…”

“Oh don’t you fret yourself darling, I’ll take care of this.” she turned to tug on the collar of Jeff’s coat.

“Take it off and please wait for us upstairs.”

“huh-wait, what?” he turned towards her, “why should I wait up there, wouldn’t it be easier to-”

“Please, Jeff, we’ll talk in private when your mouth isn’t disturbing my customers.” Her voice was polite but firm while the human shook his head but complied by removing his coat before plopping it down on the counter.

“Sure, here, I’ll make sure not to get lost along the way…” he walked defiantly around the clerks side of the register before heading up stairs.

Rarity levitated the coat near her before turning to go to a space, closed off by some curtains.

“Walk with me Twilight,” we entered the space as she laid the coat on a measuring table.

“Talk to me, how come he was he in such turmoil?” she floated a pair of sheers to the coat. With accuracy she started piercing the coat then trimmed the ripped edges off, evening the hole in the sleeve.

“What?”

“Don’t play oblivious with me, you and I both know that we can sense the moods of our friends and why was he in the foulest of moods?” she didn’t take her eyes off her work.

“Well,” I ran a hoof through my mane and down my neck nervously, “Like I said, we did go to Zecora’s hut today.”

“Which is foolish by the way,” Rarity chimed in, she finished carving the torn cloth out of the coat then carried the coat to a sewing table to where she quickly dug a piece of cloth out of a scrap pile.

“Continue,” she sized the near matching colored patch with the sheers.

“Okay, after being rescued by Zecora, we went to her place where she made that detecting potion she told us about.

“Go on,” She levitated a needle and thread spool to her workstation.

“Right,” I cleared my throat, “When she made me a batch she gave him a sample of it and when he took it, well,”

“Wait, she gave him a bit of that stuff?” she looked up from her work to look worriedly at me, “Darling we both know that was an experimental recipe, how in tartarus is he still alive?”

“Yeah, well, I think after what he saw he probably wished he wasn’t.”

Rarity scoffed at the mentioning of it without a word to reply with.

“But it did work the way it was designed to do.”

“Obviously,”

“Y-You should of seen it Rarity,” I paused, “His whole body lit up like a hearth's warming tree, making him temporarily translucent, you could map out his entire anatomy with how it affected him.”

“Did it hurt?” she had finished the sewing minutes ago, she took the rest of the time to float the coat to examine for anymore blemishes; “It must of, taking how it made him look like a ghost from the sound of it.”

“It, it did, for a good five minutes or so...” I paused to clear my throat again, pushing back a lump that was trying to form, “It was causing his nerves to go haywire, he was shaking so badly, even steam was coming off his body with it being so hot.”

“Yet, he didn’t succumb to the intensity of his own body heat?”

“No, It wasn’t like it was making him overheat to a point of passing out, but more like forcing the curse glyphs to show up.”

“Wait,” she shook her head quickly from her work to me, “Glyphs?”

“Yeah, everything in and on his body was covered in these strange looking glyphs that looked like something of our world but I couldn’t really tell you right away, since I couldn’t take a single note during the whole ordeal…” I felt my eyes tingle then water up.

“I-I felt so horrible seeing him suffer like that.” I looked down, covered a quick sniffle.

“Oh Twilight,” I felt her come over to embrace me in a hug which was enough for me to let loose a small shower of tears.

“I-I don’t think I’ll be able to watch him go through that again, no pony should, not a single soul!”

Rarity was quiet for the moment as she gently stroked my mane comfortingly while she let me get it out. it was few, seemingly long, minutes of shedding tears before I started to compose myself.

“I-I doubt it’ll be the last time though, we all have to just tough it out and hope that sooner or later we’ll find a way to break it.”

“There, now that’s the Twilight I know,” she let me go and to look at me with a hoof on a shoulder, “You listen to me darling, I’ll go take his coat to him and you, well, since I don’t normally have it in my house, but for today i’ll allow it.” she smiled sweetly at me, “go get some sasparillas, for the three of us, you know what I like.”

I couldn’t help but smile at her, Just like any of the other girls, she was a true friend to let me lean on her like this. Normally, I don’t show this part of me, but for some reason, What happened to Jeff today had pulled it out of me.

“Sure, Raspberry, Apple aaand-”
“-Try something like you normally would get spike.”
“Oh, right! Vanilla Orange, good idea.” I turned towards the curtains to leave, but I gave her a final look, “ and Rarity.”
“Yes, Twilight?” She held her side of the curtains looking at me.
“Thank you, for listening.”
“Don’t fret it, it’s what friends are for darling, now run along before you turn into a lavender puddle again.”
“Right.” I whipped my nose with a sniff, “I’ll be back.”

With a sigh of relief I felt a boost of energy as well a change in my own mood as I left the boutique. As I was leaving i hear behind me: “oh Dear me, sorry for the delay Miss Ivory, I was taking care of some other business.”
“Oh no worries Rarity, You can be quite the busy mare.”

She sure was.

I remembered how she was earlier today when she made me simply sit down, she can be very controlling I pondered, but there was something else that I’ve noticed when she sent me up here earlier just now.

She almost sounded like she was ordering me up here, as if trying to defuse a situation before one even took place or at least that’s what I can assume. I found one of these fancy, yet comfy, chairs in the living room before plopping myself into one.

My mind mulled over the images of what I briefly looked like again and again, I really looked like something out of some sci-fi show, almost invisible, with those weird-as-hell markings or glyphs or whatever they were. It wasn’t natural and it wasn’t right that my entire everything was covered in these markings.

I looked at an arm, thinking I can trick my eyes into seeing them. Nothing, just plain, pale skin that still felt slightly warm to the touch. gently rubbing my arm I looked around the room absently. Lost in thought, lost in emotion, just…

How, how can some average joe schmuck be treated like this? I mean, not pointing the blaming finger at the Twilight or the girls but more at whoever gave me these stupid markings. They must of really hated my existence to curse me this strange curse.

Yet, so far, not a single flare up of any kind, not dramatic P.T.S.D. flashback, no seizure, no, nothing. like some sort of sickness, it’ll come and go at will. which is just as dangerous as any gun or knife.

my mind wandered away while I could feel my mood starting to cool some, I think being away from anypers-pony- “AGH! fucking language!”

“Language indeed!” Rarity’s voice pierced my thoughts like a steak knife, jaggedly cut and messy.

“huh? Oh pardon me, didn’t expect anyone-pony-whoever to randomly hear me.” Coolness came from my voice, I wasn’t really in anymore to-I looked in time to catch my Jacket with my face.

“Of course, you wouldn’t but at least you are not offending anypony with your strange, rude words.” The white mare appeared in my vision, walking by me on my right.

“It’s not going to really kill anyone that I throw a few words of bad english, I’m just really pissed about the kind of day I’ve been having so far.”

“A positive that you are admitting what is bothering you, but there is still a problem with not controlling that mouth of yours darling.” She found a seat across from me, if her eyes could be used as a weapon I could've sworn I lose my head.

“And?” I shrugged nonchalantly.

“And? Jeff, I know you are new here and all, but at least practice some control and good manners when around the rest of our ponyfolk. Sure, we all may be living, breathing, beings; at least some of us can practice proper behavior when around others.” she eyed the coat for a moment then back at me. probably thinking on if I even noticed the repair work or something.

“So, pretty much, I should use better judgement and better fuckin’ manners when around others?”

She froze, her mouth opened to as if to speak but instead face hoofed with an annoyed sigh.

“yeees, exactly what I mean, a way to sum it up darling....”

“Then, there isn’t much more to discuss on that, I’m sorry for freakin’ running my mouth without considering the possibility of innocent ears listening.”
“wha-?” she looked at me suddenly confused, “Uh, apology accepted Jeff.” she then cleared her throat out of probably personal awkwardness. One could speculate that she must of prepared herself for a long winded lecture or something.

“So, now that we apparently got that quickly resolved, I have to ask in all of its severity: How are you really doing Jeff?”
I took a deep breath, here we go, I could only get that i’ll have to get used to retelling my story to anypony that has heard about of my, “ordeal.”

“It, It sucked to put it one way,” I began, “Can’t really say I can still belive what I have seen. I mean, sure, I was really looking at myself in the mirror, but how everything was showing up still has my brain in a clusterfu-” I paused to find a better word, “-really bad mess.”
“Thank you for catching yourself there.”
“No problem, anyways, so, there I was, standing with no shirt on in front of that mirror. My whole skin seemed to of briefly vanished without it really, well, vanishing.”
Rarity’s ears had perked briefly, “Translucent, as Twilight had described it.”
“Yeah, Kinda like that, on top of that, all of my muscles, nerves, veins, even my organs seemed to of been completely exposed.” I looked down at myself, sure, fully clothed now, but I can still see how it all went while under the influence of that stuff.

“All of that didn’t really happen at once, it was really slow going, maybe at the rate of my own pulse. every time a layer was being exposed, A-” i gestured with both hands over my chest, “-whole mess of these symbols, or glyphs or whatever would appear.”

Rarity, shifted her sitting position, leaning on an elbow while crossing a leg, “Glyphs As Twilight pointed out, how did they look like anyway?”

“Can’t really say, like, I don’t know, celtic-egyptian-hieroglyphic-rune hybrids or something weird like that, every single one of them highlighted in a pulsating neon-black, if that makes any kind of sense.”

“Whoa, every layer?”

“Yeah, even my kidneys, heart and lungs, for a time being looked like stones with just these things etched in them.”

“Dear me, I’m so sorry Jeff, I do believe it wasn’t a pleasant discovery.”

“Ya think?”

“So, how long did this shirtle-i mean ordeal last?”

“I wouldn’t know, about maybe a good ten or so minutes of painful, nerve frying, twitchiness.” I took a deep breath, I felt a random spasm along my back muscles, I don’t think anyone noted the twitching. I only prayed that this wasn’t a side effect of the elixir of yuckquill.

I took a moment to try to think more on my ordeal while we both heard the apartment front door open, voices pouring through. Two of them. As I looked behind me to see it was Twilight and the blond coated, pink haired, winged pony trotting in behind her.

As I watched them enter, I heard what sounded like a sigh of relief behind me.

I took a look at Jeff and immediately remembered everything that had happened to him before while on top of what Twilight told me while we walked back here. The poor thing, I could only hope he’ll be okay, I mean, now that at least the three of us are here to comfort him.

“Jeff,” Twilight had came up beside him, “How are you feeling?” she must've been brave to ask something like that after telling me how nervous she was after being around him in his apparent bad mood most of the day.

“Much better Twilight,” He replied with a look of uncertainty, “Rarity and I had a pleasant chat about earlier and I was in the middle of telling her about what happened to me at, Zecora’s place.”

“I see,” she paused sounding suddenly unsure herself.

“So, where did you go?”

“Oh, yeah, Rarity made the clever idea of sending me to the market for something for all of us,” She opened a saddle bag with her magic and levitated a bottle out of it and over to Jeff.

“What’s this?” he asked as he took it out of her levitation magic.

“A sarsaparilla, a drink of sorts mixed with various ingredients to give it different flavors.”

“So, kinda like a Henry Weinhard?”

“uhh, a what?” I had already walked over behind the lounger, looking from between the three of them. Rarity seemed to of quickly gotten up from her seat when we had entered originally, wonder what startled her? Don’t think we scared her did we?

“A sode back home,” He looked at the bottle in his hand then gave the cap a good twist and it gently hissed when he opened it. Twilight had laid on the lounger, she floated one to Rarity, who quickly took it and made that bottle cap spin off it before taking a casual swig from it. Must of been really thirsty I guess. Twilight floated one to me to which I took with a smile.

“Thank you Twilight.” I leaned against the back of the lounger while I opened it with the help of one of my wings. they might not be as strong as Rainbow Dash’s but I could at least, with a bit of effort, open my bottle.

Jeff took a sip of his and his eye’s widened, “oh damn, a very rich Henry Winhard!” We heard Rarity clear her throat while looking at him with that look that even made me flinch.

“Sorry, ‘oh darn’.”

“Thank you.” He looked at Twilight, “So, Fluttershy was it?” wait, he was looking at me, eep!

“Uh, y-yeah.”

“Take it Twilight found you while she was in town?”

“Uhm, Of course, I was um trying make my way through the busy traffic to get provisions for my Animal friends.”

I think I heard a ‘psst’ somewhere.

“Twilight, may I speak with you for a moment?” Rarity addressed Twilight rather over politely.

“Oh, of course-”

“I-in the kitchen please?”

“Uhh, okay?” They both set their drinks down, well, Rarity changed her mind and took hers into the kitchen with them. It was quiet for a moment, then I realized something-
“Hey, you okay?”
I was alone!

“Wha-huh? oh yeah, I-I’m fine.” I quickly shook myself before taking a quick look around and with some quick thinking I took the seat Rarity was previously in. I, I don’t know what to do at this point! I need to say something so I don’t look so, well, quietly shy. I think he kinda take that-oh drat he is looking at me! I feel like I should run, but-

“Ya know, It won’t be long till the rest of the girls hears about how my ordeal went. You too have been told about it am I right?”

“Oh, yeah,” I quickly nodded in reply, “D-Did it hurt?”

“Alot? Yes, very much did so.” he nodded after taking a drink, “There is no real way to describe how bad it really in one word or less.” He sighed.

“Poor thing, I don’t think anyone should go through what you did, Twilight was, um, very descriptive of what happened.”

“Yeeah, she can do that…”

“If there is anything I-uh-any of us can do, let me know.”

“Thanks Flutters, I don’t think there is anything anyone can do to help me on this…”

wait, how am I able to talk to him without wanting to hide?

“I mean, If anything, I’m going to have to get my horse pills refilled before I get onto a regimen of that yuckquill.”

“Yuck-what?”

“Yuckquill, it’s what I’m calling the stuff, I would not suggest trying it unless you want to forever taste liquid chalk forever.”

“Th-thank sounds horrible!”

“Eh, I’ve taken worse back home.” He shrugged, He eyed passed me at something. I quickly glanced at what he was looking at, the kitchen doors, then looked back to him.

“Uhm, what is it?”

“Oh, noticed how they both just got up and went in there suddenly?” he pointed while sounding almost as quiet as me.

“Probably nothing I would think.” I shrugged before taking a third sip of my flavorful, cottoncandy wonderfulness.

His mouth shifted a bit, as if in thought before setting his drink down before standing up, “I know it probably isn’t my business but I want to know, at least this one time.” he walked towards the doors.

I felt myself tense up as he did before turning to watch him stand by the doors. I know eavesdropping is a bad thing, but for some reason, I wanted to know as well.

Carefully setting my drink on the coffee table, I got up to go walked over as well. I made sure to keep my distance from him, I, I don’t think he would be comfortable with me standing right beside him as we listened in on Rarity and Twilight.

He had carefully stood, leaning against the wall with arms folded, listening with an ear towards the door way. I could hear them just as plain as day, apparently they didn’t really kept themselves hushed at all.

“-I Don’t think you are on the right track about this Rarity.” Twilight’s unsure voice noted while I could hear pacing around the kitchen.

“Of course I am darling, I mean, he removed his clothing-”

“His coat and shirt more accurately.”

“yes, yes, but How did he look before or after he became almost invisible?”

“uhh, nothing really special, just bare skin covered in stitches just as I saw back in the hospital.”

“Wait, you, you saw, that twice?!”

“Well, duh, I had too to take accurate notes.”

“Oh dear Twilight! Always nose deep in research.”

“uhm, earth to Rarity, did you not remember that he was in a world hurt during the whole thing?”

“yes...I know, but, How are you not bothered by any of it?”

“Rarity, I only saw his upper half of him, I seriously doubt he would lack the common courtesy to be completely without any of that.”

“I almost did, but didn’t.”

“I fuckin’ knew it!” He murmured with a quiet snap of his fingers.

“what?”

“Shh.” he lifted a single index(?) finger to me and I went quiet just as fast.

There was a short pause before an audible clank of glass on counter top.

“I mean, sure, we all don’t normally wear clothing, but there is something that stirs a sense of curious mystery about him by wearing so many layers of clothing, and how casual he is with that aduitude of his.”

“Oh sweet Celestia, I’m sure he is, well, built like any stallion out there, just, on two legs.”

“All the more to, delve into the mystery some more!”

“Rarity! I thought you were better than this?!”

"I know I am, but one can only imagine."

"I try not to, i only see him as nothing more than just a friend in need of help."

"OH come on, let your mind wonder a little."

"Rarity, for all of our sake, try not to see him like that..."

“How are you not seeing him like that?”

“Uhm, what are they talking about?” I looked at Jeff who only stood with a hand on his face for a few moments of silence.

“J-Jeff?”

His only reply after a deep breath, “Mares…”
