[And then he hears exactly who it is coming to Poe's aid.]
[It's not like he's unaware of what Zed's been going through. He just hasn't known what to do about it-- a feeling he hates more than anything. He can't help Zed if he doesn't want Ranpo's help. And he's certainly not the type to be able to help himself, for all that he's sure to deny it. Even now, clearly overwhelmed (naturally, he trusts Poe's judgement in that regard), he's still insisting he can handle things on his own.]
[His own phone in hand, he jumps from his seat and unceremoniously disturbs his neighbors to borrow theirs, knowing a generic call to emergency services will still be faster than any favors he can cash in. With the knowledge of where the two of them might happen to cross paths this time of night, he can see clearly the streets they must be on, scenarios of what happened and what's going to happen filling his mind.]
