As he got closer to the room, Teisel couldn't help but worry a little about the possibility of running into Van. Or rather, Van was probably worried about the possibility of running into him.

Yeah, that made more sense.

Lockdown swung his flashlight around the hallway, keeping an optic out for anyone or anything dangerous.

Nothing so far. Best to move on.

Though it might have been easier to merely turn into the hallway adjacent to Edgeworth's room, the prosecutor had informed Kunzite that meeting in the North Hall would be a better proposition. On reflection, the concept had some merit; let backtracking for himself was always welcome. He quickly hurried to the doors and stepped out into the larger hall.

As he moved from one hallway into another, Tyki pressed a cigarette between his lips. There was a flick of a lighter and he inhaled as he casually glanced at the few people lingering around.

He guessed this simply wasn't the most exciting hallway.

Harley moved her flashlight arm around to search the hall, but all seemed to be clear. Obviously, they'd be heading out of the patient room block, but after that, Harley wasn't quite sure where they'd be going. Especially since it sounded like he wanted to play reporter all of a sudden. Thankfully, she wasn't one to beat around the bush.

"So where're we goin' anyway? Which way?" she asked, following right alongside Spider. She figured he was the one in charge of this little expedition. Heck if she knew.

"We are going outside!" said Spider, stomping down the hall with his right hand in his coat pocket. He couldn't help scrutinizing his surroundings, despite their being the same as the last hundred times he'd done it. Old habit, observation. Would be more useful outside.

He headed out into the next fucking hallway. Having someone follow him was good, it made him feel like he knew where he was going. "Down through the white-waxed gullet of this grinning medical beast," he mumbled, turning and heading south.

Those two men from before were now gone, leaving the hallway completely empty. That was probably for the best, Guy decided. It might have been awkward if they had still been around while he had Claude in tow. (He wasn't sure why it would be awkward, exactly. It just would.)

Figuring there were better things to do than wonder about that strange pair, he glanced back to Claude for a moment as he walked. "So, did your day go all right? I ran into Dias and ended up explaining about my, uhh, phobia. So you don't have to worry about keeping it a secret from him or anything." It had been unpleasant having to explain it to the other swordsman, but Guy felt a little better about the whole thing now that it was taken care of.

Claude had to resist the urge to cringe when Guy mentioned having to explain his gynophobia to Dias. Maybe that was why his rival hadn't bothered bringing it up during lunch today. Leave it to Dias to go straight to the heart of the matter and not beat around the bush.

"He didn't hassle you too much about it, did he?" he asked, faintly frowning. "He can be sort of abrasive sometimes, so..." Well, that was an understatement, really. Still, he couldn't help but feel both apologetic and a bit, well...protective, maybe, as silly as it sounded. After all, Guy was perfectly capable of handling himself, and it was only a matter of time before he had to explain that stuff to Dias anyway. But that didn't mean he wanted to see his friend get any flack (or Flac, in this case) for something he couldn't help.

Thankfully, the door was ajar from when other patients had passed through. He adjusted his grip on the juice and his sword before they stepped out into the hallway together.
