"Right, time to see if any of his stuff survived. Should only take a moment."
"Kinda callous."
"Is pragmatic. He would have liked to not die more than have us take his stuff. Cannot do former. Marcus thinks he would not mind. Also, need to build grave. Give me a knife."
"..."

You leave Alanna back in the tent as you walk over to where Gordon used to be. Alanna had seen many terrible things but digging through the gibblets of a former teammate is something you could spare her from, for the moment at least. Gordon's innards flash boiled and the pressure blew him apart, but there are still lots of pretty large chunks of him sitting around. You find his bag, half burnt, with a shoulder and arm still in one of the straps. You pull the bag off the limb and search through it. The copper coins he had on him have melted and fused to the bottom of the bag, and the music box was destroyed by the force of the blast, along with the delicate metal disks it played. Luckily both guns seem to have survived, as well as the crowbar he had with him from the start. You pack these things into your bag before beginning the rather grim task of gathering up what's left of Gordon.
You manage to gather up the majority of his parts, leaving the tiny pieces of gore behind, and toss them into a pile. Unfortunately there's nothing to bury him under; the ground both here and in the iron woods is impenetrable, at least by you personally. So you do the best thing you can think off. You empty the supplies out of one crate into the back of the cart and carry the crate over to the body. You pack the corpse into the crate and carefully carve Gordon's name and everything you can remember about him into the lid. Then you carry it back over to the road and set it on the side. With any luck, someone will come along and give him a proper burial somewhere more hospitable than this.

You sit and watch as Marcus walks around in the drizzle, disposing of Gordon's body. He seems uninjured by the rain on initial exposure, and continues to act as though he is in his right mind. No screaming, burning, spasms, transformations, or sudden homicidal tendencies. All good signs.
I continue to whimper lowly, curled into a ball, but upon realizing Beethro was talking to me I scramble for my pistol--only to realize it's behind him where I threw it earlier. I pause, shivering and staring into Beethro's intimidating death gaze for a couple seconds, before launching forward to try and get behind him and obtain my equipment.
Rush past Beethro and try to grab my metal weapons from the pile where I threw them earlier. Then flee from the tent as fast as possible, running for a minute or two, then hiding immediately afterward. Just stay motionless on the ground if nothing else, hopping up and hiding in multiple locations is only going to get me found.

You sprint from the tent and gather your weapons without slowing down, scooping them up mid run. No one tries to stop you or otherwise interfere with your actions, but this just terrifies you even more. Once you have hold of everything, you scamper a full minute or two away from the people and hide behind a white dune. You lay on your back, gasping for air as quietly as you can, cradling your pistol on your chest. You miss the man who gave you food and played nice music.
