[For a second, just a second, it almost looks like Akira's lips quirk towards a smile - but it's a moment that's there and gone. That solemn look is steadfastly in place.]

People get confused, I think. They think the Affected act like we always thought zombies were meant to, in all of those post-apocalyptic movies that were around before the world changed. But it's never been that way. [He stills the cigarette, still unsmoked.] The Affected aren't zombies, and they have their minds, same as anyone else. They can choose to attack someone, if they wish.

[The one he's looking for... He knows they would.]

You can stay, if you'd rather not deal with them. I won't tell the fortress boss.

[It doesn't serve any purpose for him to put someone else's neck on the line. Akira's handled groups of them alone before; he can certainly do it again.]
