When Armand arrived, he looked around first to see if the prisoner who'd contacted him was there. He didn't want to be caught off guard coming out of the Confessional or the hidden room behind the altar. Despite his belief that they should share information, he wasn't sure he could trust a stranger with information they may not have.

Armand's arms were full, but when he spotted the man who'd arrived to meet him, he almost sagged in relief. No, the other prisoner, in Killer orange no less, didn't look friendly, but he didn't show up with a dozen of his friends or sporting an already sour attitude.
He didn't approach, but called out instead. "Were you here to meet with someone to make an exchange?"

He glanced around to see if there was anyone else lurking in the shadows before he replied, "that'd be me. You the one looking for a knife?" He eyed the other man from across the distance between them.

Armand emerged from the Confessional seemingly empty handed, but thoughtful. He didn't hurry as he walked up the dias to look behind the altar. The metal of the cross felt cool to his fingers. He had to put some effort into turning it. Then he stepped back as the small space behind it was revealed. He hoped there wasn't anything dangerous inside tonight.

Armand murmured an apology and tugged it from the dead hands. "May you rest in peace," he added. But he knew that he and other prisoners would continue to disturb the poor dead man's rest. He wondered who he was and how he'd died in there.
With a shudder, Armand back out, and then set the cross back to rights. Then he left the Chapel. He was slightly more burdened now. He wondered if his friends had waited for him at the central area. He wouldn't be surprised if they hadn't, but it wasn't as if their destination was a surprise either.
