[Lazarus is in Christchurch today because he needs a few prescriptions refilled. Since Tony left, he's been doing these runs by himself, just one more reason to feel guilty about all the things he relied on the younger man for while he was around. His ride is off looking for some parts in an auto-mechanical shop, and he's about to start looking for him when he notices a young man who appears to be having some difficulty. He's gotten so used to seeing the ghosts that it doesn't immediately occur to him that they might be the reason for his distress, but he's approaching quickly, brisk and succinct but clearly concerned.]

Do you have a heart condition? Are you in need of help?

[He probably doesn't strike the most reassuring figure. Haunted, staring eyes are set in a too-pale face, and his dark clothes cling tight to a sparse, lanky frame that's changed little since Lazarus was a rangy teenager.]
