The third level down, Kanda had found, had a different feel. It was the palpable distance below the surface. The air felt more damp and close, and the distant omnipresent drip of water seemed to echo more loudly.

Kanda moved here with his sword already drawn, his senses particularly alert.

This was quite outside the realm of missions as he and Kanda had come to know them in their own world, but regardless Allen was not especially put off by the opportunity to explore areas of this new world that they hadn't yet seen. If it also meant they could help people then Allen was all the more willing to descend from the ship to do so ( ... )

The thing about the caves was the way they carried sound. There was a perpetual reverberation, echoes of echoes. It made it almost impossible to move truly silently, which, by the same token, meant it was easy to hear when someone was coming up behind you ( ... )

Truthfully, Allen wasn't expecting anything from Kanda. Maybe a disapproving snort or a pointed glare before the other exorcist decided that he'd wasted enough time staring at Allen, but ultimately Allen didn't spend much time expecting things of Kanda ( ... )

Through those awkward moments in which Allen grasped for the right words, Kanda watched him with an impassive frown--not a frown directed at him, but simply the frown the swordsman wore so habitually that he would have had to think consciously to make his expression soften.

A beat passed after Allen had finished, and then Kanda just said, "No."

He didn't bother to explain if he meant 'No, I'm not heading in any direction in particular,' or 'No, I'm not telling you to go a different way.' Instead he turned away to look down the passage in which they stood, and presently he added, "They're on this level. The squid-things. They're not hard to find." After all, he had the benefits of having been down here the day before, at least for a time.

Did that mean he was offering Allen his company if he wanted it? Well, Kanda wasn't indicating that very clearly either way, but he didn't have a particular agenda, and for all the people that the swordsman had run into down here on the past several days, there was still a certain feeling of ( ... )

There were a few things Allen could truly relay on Kanda for: to have his back during a mission and to be ambiguous with his words and intent. The 'no', of course, fell into the latter of the two things Allen could depend on Kanda for. Of course, the latter of the two didn't actually help Allen much.

He was about to take the 'no' as a sign that he should turn and retrace his steps, but when Kanda spoke again he began to reconsider. He looked mildly surprised then, his brow furrowing slightly as he watched the other exorcist. One of two possible outcomes would happen if Allen motioned to travel with Kanda: he'd either be told to stay the hell away, or he'd be left to come along. It didn't really put Allen in any lesser position than he already was.

He nodded slowly, looking around at the various examples of wildlife ambling along around them.

"I haven't seen any yet," he said carefully "...how big are they?"
