In his short stay at Malaise House, Nero had adapted rather well to his new surroundings thanks to the help of his brother. He was beginning to relax, converse, dare to smile without fear of being punished by a monster of a man who had been dead for quite some time

Sakura opened the door, still a bit riled from her last patient's visit. Still, she would be nice to this patient. No one deserved to be treated badly because of someone else's mishaps.

She opened the door, smiling cheerily. "Hello, you must be Nero-san, correct? Please, come in." She stood aside to allow him in.

It was interesting to note the number of people he actually enjoyed the company of who had decided to suddenly appear at the asylum. Dear Angeal first, of course, and then suddenly a little brother out of nowhere. Quite the timing.

Following Nero down the hall to his assigned doctor's office - he said he was going to attend to help his brother if he got too upset, but he wasn't going to do the entire job for him - Genesis kept close in case the younger male decided to panic and bolt. The poor boy was rather troubled, so he'd only offered to attend for emotional support. Possibly physically if required.

Once the door was opened and the patient allowed inside, the redhead leaned forward from his position against the wall and offered the girl a smile and a wave. He would've opted to just wait outside until he was called, but he had to admit he was curious.

Fear was a very, very powerful thing. Nero stayed stiff and still waiting for that door to open, the only thing keeping him there was Genesis... Perhaps in the both figurative and literal sense of the phrase. He wanted to go back to his room, it was so much safer and quieter in there.

Biting his lower lip, which quickly turned into a fast-paced chew as the woman opened the door, it was all he could do to nod and tighten his grip on his arms, overpowering the instinct to flee with nothing but sheer willpower.

He stepped inside, eyes wider, face paler, repressing a shudder as he glanced about. He moved as far away as he could, resting his back against the wall, nervously squeezing and releasing his arms.

"I-i do not want to be here..."

Sakura's smile became less fake at the poor boy's fear. After Nero walked in she turned her attention to Genesis.

"Doctor, please, come in." She walked into her office, finding Nero's file on her desk. She didn't want to frighten him, so she offered, "Why don't you take a seat for a moment to calm yourself. Can get either of you anything? A glass of water perhaps?"
