[It's so relieving to hear Eddie's voice, the bit of it he can hear through his own voice. He sighs, shuts his eyes. Maybe if he hopes enough, Eddie can appear here and make this go away, maybe his voice can wake Ryou up from this stupid nightmare.]
I'm--[deep breath]--I'm at home, in the kitchen--the floor it's--it came out of me, I don't--!
[But the more he talks the more he shakes until his hands are shaking so bad he drops his phone into the sludge puddle. He curses in a high-pitched whine, but at least it landed screen-up. He lets out a quivering breath and wraps his arms around himself as he curls down forward. Fuck fuck fuck.]
Eddie--Eddie I can't hear you. Please, please come home.
[He drops his head. The cabinets suddenly all open and slam shut at random, over and over, the stomping is coming down the hall, the walls are being clawed, picture frames falling and crashing and wood splintering. It doesn't have a voice anymore, but does it have a body? A pit of despair is ripping into Ryou's gut.]

It's coming for me.
