Although it had been good to see his mom again, Claude entered the cafeteria with a dark expression on his face. He was glad she felt comfortable enough with him to share her experiences from last night, but that didn't make him any less angry at the military for using her to do their dirty work. Why couldn't those bastards clean up their own

Rapunzel had spotted the other girl approaching and let out a sigh of relief. She waved Soma over, slid into a seat, and just about jumped right back out of it when the girl slammed her tray down on the table. To be fair, Rapunzel was almost as relieved to see Soma all right, but wow, she still hadn't been expecting this big a reaction.

"Yes! Yes, I'm fine. Don't worry," said Rapunzel, holding up her hands in front of her reassuringly. "We did get hurt out there, but they let me have back all of my hair's magic for the night."

She tapped her forehead. "See right here? Little glass shards and cuts all in there. Ugh." She shuddered. "But I was able to get rid of all our injuries after we got away from the exploded hummer. And then Tsubaki was able to get us through the rest of the desert, no problem."

She let out a sigh, feeling a little overwhelmed that she could sum up the experience so quickly when it had felt like forever actually being there. Maybe they could move on to something else instead, she thought. "What about you? What did you do when we didn't show up?"
