[The fact Yuber hadn't moved to attack before Robert went to flee was, in his mind, a good thing. Perhaps he had a rational part of his mind after all. It was understandable if he was angry, about Nu being attacked. That was enough to make Robert angry. And maybe he wouldn't hurt anybody else. Maybe.
Probably not. But he wasn't attacking Litchi, yet.
Robert continues to back off, up and until the point where he hits his literal physical limit. Unable to help his own weakness, he sinks to his knees on the ground near the meandering river around Community Building Four and just gasps for breath, shaking. He's not even sure if he can get back to Community Building Three right now. Rationally, he knows that he isn't safe here, that Yuber could still find him easily and kill him, but panic isn't enough, even with adrenaline pushing him onward, to overcome the utter ineptitude of his body.
After a moment he kind of curls inward, the actual horror of the situation really processing now that he's essentially paralyzed by exhaustion.] Oh gods, oh gods... [He's murmuring softly, faintly. Probably still audible over the journals, though. Anybody else listening in would hear the faint sounds of the river and the louder sounds of Robert sobbing while gasping for breath. D-Doctor... F-Faye-Ling...
