Very recently.

It seemed severe enough for this person to reach out to me. They described Drake as 'not himself'.

[lakebrat]

[Fine. Every part of him prickles to leap into action, but....]

Was this person Magpie, by any chance?

[fogbornphantom]

They asked not to be named. I'd rather not betray that trust.

What I will say is this was an act of concern, and they were fine with me approaching you.

[lakebrat]

[Confirmed, then.]

It's just that I can't think of anyone else who would have left him lying in an alley. And I'm not sure I'm the one Drake would most prefer to find him.

Nonetheless, I'm on my way. Thank you.

[fogbornphantom]

My contact spent enough time around him to at least notice the hallucinations and other assorted issues.

It's possible that he left because he knew he wasn't the right person for the job, hence contacting me in order to contact you.

Regardless, why wouldn't Drake want to see you?

[lakebrat]

[There's a delay, while he heads out of Leblanc.]

You know how it is, I'm sure. Drake is proud.

He wouldn't want me of all people to see him at his worst.

[fogbornphantom]

I feel as though his self worth is at an all time low.

Even before all of this started, he was so quick to try and push me away.

[lakebrat]

I wouldn't be so quick to say that. Certainly not to blame yourself.

I'll be in touch later.
