Night 54: M1-M10 Hallway
Having to endure an empty room for yet another night had Sora worried. Were they not planning to give him a new roommate? He didn't know how these soldier people worked -- would they rather that patients were left in their rooms alone? That didn't make much sense, but he really didn't know what to expect anymore

A room, with both Dean and a female in it. He'd known Dean for long enough to realize that this signified. Copulation befuddled the angel, but it was not his place to judge. In that case, he would need to quickly explain and move on.
Ignoring the weapons that were raised against him, Castiel glanced around the room for a moment, noticing that it was identical to his own. Then he turned to Dean and gave a minute shrug of his shoulders. "I had reason to believe that you did not trust what I said about what I am." The skepticism had been clear on both Dean and Sam's faces that first day.
"It appears that some of my power has returned to me. I felt that I should show it to you firsthand." Now it would be difficult for Dean to argue with his claim; that was his theory, at the least.
"However, it seems that you are busy," Castiel continued with a pointed glance in the girl's direction, "so I will take my leave." He glanced to Orihara then, giving him a silent warning that they would be moving again soon.

He might not have liked the lack of warning beforehand, but the situation had proved to be interesting, dropping in unannounced on Castiel's friend and cosplay girlfriend like this. The girl was so flustered, and the man-Dean, Castiel had called him?-looked like he was on edge from their sudden appearance, too. If this 'Dean' knew Castiel, it didn't seem like he'd known what the man was capable of.
Castiel's words confirmed as much-and there was something else in there, too: the mention of other abilites, and... 'What I am', he'd said; not 'who I am'. It was an interesting choice of words, and one that Izaya would keep in mind for later. Now wasn't the time, not yet. Not until he knew better which questions needed asking.
Dean had asked another a question, too-likely directed at Izaya himself if he did know Castiel-but he wasn't going to give an answer now; if Dean was asking him, Izaya would leave the introductions for when they met again, if they met again. He nodded at Castiel instead; if he was done, it was time to get out of there and on to more interesting things-as nice as staying to see what else they might do might be.
"Ready," he said quietly. "Let's go."

It had been a relief when Dean had reacted just as… badly wasn't the word for it; they could've been so totally screwed right there, her instincts told her. Quick thinking saved lives! Flinching was a reflex for a reason! Maybe she didn't know for sure what kind of life she'd lived back then, but duh, putting a weapon between creepy-weird interlopers with super teleportation powers was just common sense.
… Okay, maybe jumping back into the closet had been on th dumb side, but nine out ten wasn't a bad score? Right? Right. But anyway, that guy had given her a look like… like… like something, and Yuffie didn't like it.
"Damn straight we're busy," she said grumpily, fingers clenching against the crossbar of her shuriken. "We were just about to head out when you jerks showed up." She lifted her chin in defiant irritation, waiting for the two to leave and hoping they didn't try any funny business as a parting shot.

At least Yuffie was still in the same, non-crazy boat as him.
Dean lowered his knife, figuring by now if Castiel and his boyfriend were gonna attack them, they would've done it already. Besides, that shuriken's of Yuffie was a pretty big deterrent there. Dean wouldn't want to be on the end of that, that was for sure. Dean by now had settled for feeling pissed and - okay, he wouldn't call it violated 'cause another dude was making eyes at him, but c'mon. How were you supposed to feel when two guys just blipped in for a dick measuring contest and then planned to blip out.
"Try knocking, Jesus Christ," Dean sputtered. Yeah, there wasn't exactly a friggen manual for this. At least Yuffie here was normal. Sorta normal. Ignoring the memory thing, she was being reasonable about this.

First, their presence wasn't wanted. Second, Dean didn't seem to be entirely convinced, even after that display. It definitely smarted, but it wasn't as if he could ask for more details when there was a stranger present. More than that, he hadn't even told Orihara of what he truly was, though he wouldn't be surprised if the human had questions before long.
"I apologize," he said with a shake of his head before turning his attention to Dean. "We must talk later." When that would be depended on a number of things.
But they had to get going, and at this point Castiel wasn't sure where. He now knew that he could go to places he'd been before (in this area, that is) as well as to the locations of people who he knew, and as far as he could tell, that was the extent of his flight.
It wasn't much, but it was certainly convenient for exploration, especially when time was so short. But there was one more question that Castiel needed to answer, and that was whether or not Gabriel's power had returned. Seeing how his older sibling was an archangel and therefore had more power by nature, it was possible that he could fly further. Either way, Castiel needed to see.
He turned to Orihara finally, slowly reaching a hand forward so that the young man could be prepared. "We're going." And then he set his hand on the other's shoulder and in the next second they were gone.
