He wades out of the water with Louis and fetches his clothes from where they're piled neatly on the shore, drying himself off a little and dressing only enough to be decent for the walk back to the house, leaving his shirt hanging open.

Daniel's laptop is still on the desk, the pile of books he was reading still on the table next to the bed. The coffin is open, Santiago sprawled on the bed. The rabbit hops over to greet Louis when they arrive, floating into the air to sniff at him while Armand lights candles and fetches towels from the bathroom. ]
