Night 55: M61-70 Hallway

[deadlyjuliet]

The food was disgusting, but he had to eat. While Grell was hardly a gourmet by any stretch of the imagination, he knew good food from poor and this? Was atrocious. He'd only managed to choke it down because without food he'd have no energy and there was no way he'd allow his energy to run out. He still ached from his fight the previous night,

Ugh, that noice was incredibly unpleasant, and ZEX had to spend a few seconds hunched over and shuddering before he could pull himself back together. It hadn't occurred to him that covering the fleshy things on the side of his head could have helped muffle the sound a little. Well, at least it was over now.

Landel or this new figure, it didn't seem to make much of a difference. The same cryptic statements, and the same lack of a stated purpose. There was no point in staying in tonight anyway, not while he was awake. Perhaps he'd find something useful tonight, or maybe find Teisel, wherever he'd gotten off to. The chances of it seemed low, unfortunately.

He puzzled over why they'd give him back his uniform and items at night, since they were clearly contraband, but he knew he probably would receive no answers. He got dressed and set out on his way.

After the near month he'd been in the place, Kurogane had thought he'd understood certain aspects about how the place worked. The daytime was spent going along with everything, and the nighttime was their chance to try and escape. It was for that reason that each patient would hide what items he had gained during nightly outings before the daytime came around - so no nurse would find and take them. Another night under the soldiers' control showed that hiding things no longer mattered. They were more than ready to let patients keep their items and had even gathered them up into a neat little box, ready for them in their rooms

The routes from cellblock to cellblock had had around three weeks to ingrain themselves into her internal map, and with no trouble along the way to deter her, Tsubaki had little difficulty finding her way to Kurogane’s room. She had to wonder if he’d found a metal box like she had with his things inside, if the whole prisoner population had in a gesture that said ’I understand perfectly well what goes on after hours.’ An admittance that stripped away the veneer of the peaceful hospital Landel had set in place during the day.

Maybe the facades were drawing to a close. Maybe the nights were going to change, and not in a good way. A lot of maybes and no real answers

While he'd been hesitant to trust anything collected in the box, Kurogane had chosen eventually to at least change his clothes. The new uniform was confining, even if loosened, and he needed something more fitting if he had to fight for his life that night

At the sound of the door opening, Tsubaki snapped to greater attention. Someone was in…

It was Kurogane’s tall form framed in the door, but what she noticed almost at once was the state of dress he was in. She was practically eye level with his bare chest, making it easier to see the two-tone skin he had in some areas. Oh, it looked like she’d interrupted him while changing…

While he looked down, she looked up. At least he didn’t seem more worse for wear than yesterday. “Sorry for the disturbance… I wasn’t able to contact you today, so I thought I’d see if you were still in,” she said in her soft voice. She would’ve done the same with Fai, too, if she could be in two places at once. What were the chances that Fai was still in?
