Stairwell by Waiting Room/Lobby 1

[officer_leon]

[from hereMuch emptier here. Didn't seem like anyone else had made it this far, yet. Leon turned on his flashlight and hurried up the stairs. Hopefully nothing too horrible would be hanging around on the second floor, though he wasn't about to hold his breath. There was Special Counseling tonight, and the odds were good that someone would be camped

Only two individuals in the staircase, but otherwise the area was deserted of any treats. Thankfully, he didn't need the light-sticks most humans carried to confirm this. Those odd objects made one quite visible, after all.

There wasn't any sense in lingering, however, so he began climbing the stairs.

Elincia found that she felt much calmer now that she was accompanied. She still didn't know what to think of the man walking with her, but she was sure she was in no danger. He didn't look like he could hurt her, and even if he were able to... Well, she'd worry about that if it happened. Even without a weapon, she could still try to fight. Besides, this way she was keeping her promise.

She followed after him and also began climbing. It occurred to her that she still didn't know his name. "I must apologize again. I seem to have forgotten to introduce myself. My name is Elincia. What might yours be?"

It wasn't until the woman offered her name that it occurred to Scar that they indeed had skipped the introduction round. Not that manners were all that high onto one's list when wandering through a monster-infested area, but that wasn't quite the point.

"I am called Scar." he answered to her question, pausing his climb for a moment before he added: "A pleasure to meet you, Elincia." Or one should hope. At the very least, this woman seemed to be far better company than some of the others he had ran into up til now as she didn't provide him with a massive headache with a possible lack of brains.

And he glanced up again, trying to determine if there was some sort of fight raging on above. It wouldn't do to walk into one blindly.

"Ah. It's a pleasure to meet you too, Scar," she said, trying a small smile. What a strange name. It was likely for it to have something to do with the scar he had on his face, wouldn't it? As far as she knew, people weren't usually just given names like that.

She went on up the stairs, looking all around her before reaching the next floor. Scar had said they could be ambushed so it wouldn't hurt to be careful. She just wished she knew exactly what was ambushing people.
