Comment by Janiko on The Hounds of Sisyphus - Chapter 24

@Janiko It's very different how people's first reaction to this kind of traumatic realisation is. Our teach here probably hasn't entirely been able to process the fact that it happened at all. It didn't sink in yet, y'know? I believe once it really sinks in what has happened and how it's happened, the second stage of anger and rage or perhaps intense disappointment and frustration will follow.

@Janiko i think he's numb. The reality hasn't set in yet. Although his body is reacting because he was throwing up after the dream but his mind hasn't caught up yet or is blocking the trauma to protect itself
