Day 59: Game Room (Fourth Shift)

[razing_phoenix]

Guy's head was still spinning from finding out that his friend was back once again. He realized that he'd done a good job of keeping his cool while explaining everything to Luke, mainly because nothing would have been solved if both of them had been reeling, but

He could weigh the events of the day so simply. Troll, troll, cry, (unsure), troll. One--nothing had honestly upset him today. Two--he had been able to play with a few, and despite the pain involved in one interaction, had been able to procure some information for his sibling. Though he was mildly interested as well, now. How exactly had that female came across so much? Was there something about her that required more insight? He would at least do well to keep an eye on her in the meantime.
