With breakfast finished and a new acquaintance made, the Scarecrow's mind turned to his other friends. The disappearance of Depth Charge's friend had brought back memories of how he'd felt when Kaiji went missing: helpless, useless, as though he should have and could have done something more to find him. If only he had his brain, then maybe he

Haseo went from asleep to sitting up immediately, these words ringing in his head and absolutely confused. His hands clenched around swords that were no longer there, tongue biting back retorts he hadn't had a chance to use. He'd been ready to fight Kibitoshin's shadowy copy, and yet... for some reason, that hadn't happened. The last thing he remembered was the man himself insisting he not go at it alone, and then everything abruptly going black. And before that...
Needless to say, today promised to be particularly bad, mood-wise. The next five minutes were spent with his face in his hands, angry at... well, everything. It was obvious, too- his nurse actually found reason to pause when she came in to fetch him, whatever chiding she'd been preparing for his missing breakfast going mostly left aside.
However, as bad as it was, he wasn't going to just lie around in bed all day. As much as the place tried to knock him down, he refused to stay there, basically lying down in wait to just die. That didn't mean he had to be pleasant though- hate continued to fill every tiny interaction he made with the staff, and he thought that the loss of breakfast was just as well, because he definitely wasn't hungry. He also didn't think he could stand being cornered by another patient while trying to eat anyway. At least not without outright snapping.
The Adept Rogue ignored everyone at first in favor of checking the bulletin, but it didn't take long for him to decide that it just wasn't worth it. It also didn't take him long to notice someone of interest soon afterward, and weaving through the others he paused a short distance away from Tsukasa, notably silent as he watched the other teen with the kitten, slowly crossing his arms.

It took a few minutes before he realised that he was being watched, and he looked up, not entirely certain what he was expecting. A doctor perhaps. He hadn't seen one since he'd been here, but perhaps it was his turn now. To his relief though, it was Haseo. It might not have been a relief to some people, not if they knew Haseo's reputation, but in this place, anyone familiar was good. "Hey," he said quietly, smiling warmly at the other boy.

"Tsukasa..." he started slowly, stepping closer, but then launched right into what he thought he'd come over for without further preamble- "Endrance is gone. Thought you should know." However, though the words were blunt his voice was unusually neutral, far lower than how he usually spoke- especially as 'Haseo.'
It was probably inevitable. Kibitoshin had definitely been sympathetic last night, but Tsukasa... would likely understand better what that meant. He'd probably understand 'more' than what it had really been, actually, considering what had happened a week before the night after Haseo had been experimented on. Maybe. After the fact, Haseo still wasn't sure himself.
