[Well, he can try that at least. Focus on his breathing...
Focusing on his breathing makes him more aware of his heartbeat, which makes him think of someone else entirely. Do they still share the same heartbeat? Or has that connection been severed now that they're dead? Is he in some other part of heaven, going through what Ali's experiencing here? Or has he already been killed a second time? Concord is physically strong, but it wouldn't be too hard to lure him into a trap. If their heartbeats are still connected Ali would have felt if something happened, but he hasn't felt anything unusual yet, which means either Concord is fine or they're not connected anymore, and the fact that this is now a Schrodinger's unicorn situation is driving him crazy-
He grimaces, and moves back to focusing on his breathing. Meditation is hard for someone who overthinks all the time.]
