[why can't she check for herself? but then he thinks of Lia and how strangely she reacted when she saw Tony's corpse; maybe this girl can't handle it either]
[... he should really ask her for her name, come to think]
[but first he'll try to answer the question]
...
Well, um. She was hanging inside it because... somebody hit her on the head from behind with the mop.
[makes a head motion in its direction]
At least that is what I think, because the back of her head was bloody, and if she had not been dead when she fell in she wouldn't have stayed there. Right? I tried to dry her face, but...
There were many, um... cracks? Is that right? Bleeding cracks. And do you know how skin dies and f-falls off when you get a sunburn? It was... a bit like that, just... just wet.
[long moment of silence]
But I think it's okay now.
[nothing is "okay" and he knows it, but at least his shirt soaked most of the acid up]
[tries to remember, but his sense of time was out of order at that point]
Not very long, I think. Bri pulled me away from Prudence quickly, and then I washed my hands in the kitchen. Maybe... five minutes? It felt longer, but... I am not sure.
...
Ah, say... what are you called? I forgot to ask before.

[Not sure if this guy's word can be trusted, but it's worth asking anyway-]
How long did you have the acid on your hands for?
no subject

Saira. And you?
