Having a more or less normal conversation with Okita again was nice, Guy had to admit. It meant that even though both of them had been through some pretty horrific stuff, they could still bounce back and deal with things as they came. He could only hope that now that both of them had died and come back to life that they were pretty much off of

While Kurogane noted the absence of his roommate, he chose not to linger on it. There were too many possibilities behind the reason Grell wasn't there, eve more now that Landel had returned. Whatever the reason, it was not his problem. He had his own problems to take care of.

After preparing for the night, Kurogane had waited for Landel's announcement with the ring in hand, ready to head for the town. It wasn't until halfway through Landel's mocking words that he'd noticed the small stone he was supposed to break was no longer there. While he knew he'd smashed it the night before, he had also seen the gem return after getting broken many times prior to then. So for it to have not returned now...

"You've gotta be kidding me..." he grumbled, stashing the ring into his robes. That Landel, he had to have done something. First he wanted them going out to search and now he was keeping them confined. Coward.

With no other choice, Kurogane headed out from his room without his usual plans on where to go. If Landel wanted to speak with them, he'd find a way without Kurogane having to do anything, but that didn't mean the ninja couldn't still try to track the bastard down. He had to be running about somewhere now that he was back in power; he was too proud of his return to simple sit in his chair all night long.
