[Albert and Raine eventually make it to the front of community building 5, where they are supposed to meet with the others. There's a certain amount of tension in the air.]

[It's not as bad as it could be, but hopefully meeting with the others will help diffuse it a little more. Raine will cautiously shift her gaze to look for the others.]

[Yuan's already there, waiting. He gives them both a curt nod, accompanied by a tiny smile. It's been a while since they last had a meeting. This should be good.]

[It doesn't take long for Sigmund to make his way there. He greets everyone with a polite nod.]

[Yuri's already there as well, leaning against a nearby wall. When Albert and Raine come in, he looks over at them and gives a small, short wave before moving away from the wall. When Sigmund wanders in, he'll be getting a nod.]

[Albert nods to each of the men in turn. He silently tells himself that they need to have these meetings more often, and not only when a dangerous situation is ready to present itself.]

Good afternoon, everyone. [a slight pause] We are waiting on Vyse, then?

[Right on cue, Vyse comes running towards the scene. Gosh, why is everyone already here? He's not that late, is he? He'll just give everyone an apologetic grin, then.]

I'm here! Sorry I'm so late.

[Raine nods a greeting to Yuan and Yuri, and then Sigmund when he comes in.]

That's fine, Vyse. We've all just arrived ourselves.

I would prefer we move to another location from here to avoid eavesdropping on our meeting. [Thankfully, the building isn't too far away from their current meeting place.] We also still don't know which areas have surveillance. [He hopes it's fairly obvious why he would want to move them to the barracks.]

Please follow me.

[Yuan pushes himself away from the wall, ready to follow Albert to this other location. As long as he's sure that area is safe from eavesdropping, it's all fine with him.]

[... Huh. That's a little weird, but understandable. He shrugs a little at that, but doesn't say anything -- he's ready to go off and follow Albert whenever he's ready to go.]

[Sigmund looks at the others. He remembers arguing with Yuan over the journals, but this isn't the time or place to bring that up. When Albert goes, he follows along.]

[The walk isn't long, and the barracks are empty when they arrive. As far as Albert knows, it stands empty fairly often considering its purpose.]

Who can say that this building has been in steady use since Mark's commission to have it constructed?

[Raine frowns, glancing around at the inside.]

Judging by the looks of things, it seems that it may only be used sparingly. It is a bit out of the way for some people. [She'll fall silent and let the others confirm a little more though.]

[winged_rogue]

[Vyse is glancing around as well, taking the building in. He knew it existed, he just never really considered going here.]

I can't say I've ever actually been inside this place. Haven't heard too many people talking about going here, either.

I've checked the place out once or twice, but I keep forgetting it exists. Could be the reason why no one says anything about it.
