[Quiet knock, then he's sticking his head through the door.]

You've got a minute, I hope.

[exploding_kunai]

[It's a moment before she responds. Her expression hasn't changed at all, so don't take it personally.]

...Yes.

[thewarisover]

Excellent.

[Walking in, pulling the door shut. ...Is that a brief case?

Now he's quietly setting himself up in that small table close to your bed. Hum, hum work.]

I needed a change of scenery.

[By way of explanation.]

[exploding_kunai]

...

You are working here?

[thewarisover]

Yes. Oh, and I suppose I'm keeping you company too. [Now holding up a very recognizable package. Look who has more pastries?] I can pay you for the space.

[exploding_kunai]

[He had... Why did he have...?]

...Wh-Why?

[thewarisover]

Because I'm intruding on your time to think and brood, right?

[Teasingly.]

[Well, she still has glaring in her! It doesn't last long, though, and she looks away, her frown becoming more self-conscious.]

I mean you do not need to.

[thewarisover]

[exploding_kunai]

[And she just keeps frowning. She'd been feeling more useless than anything lately, especially with the recent realization that she had no idea what she was actually doing.

Pardon the facial expression and silence being her only answer now. She's had a lot to think over with not many answers.]

[thewarisover]

[Watching her a moment before turning to his work.]

You can tell me, you know.

[exploding_kunai]

[Maybe she does, but that's not going to stop her from considering it for a good while.]

...I... do not know what to do...

[thewarisover]

[Serenely poring over a report.]

You've been doing plenty for us as it is. Unless you're referring to something else.

[exploding_kunai]

[She doesn't want to expand and part of her thinks she really doesn't need to. Erg... It takes her a bit to respond again.]

I...am referring to this entire place...

[thewarisover]

The war, then. This situation. Your place in it.

[Deja vu, lol.]

[exploding_kunai]

... Y-Yes...
