Peh. "Graduates." Who were they trying to fool? It's not like anyone here believed them, and no one ever visited the institute. What was the point in keeping up this sad little charade? To add to the realism of it? Well, whatever. If they wanted to continue this exercise in futility, that was fine with Porky. All it meant was that they spent more

"Eh?" Porky said, looking up to see who had spoken to him. He thought he recognized that voice, but who could it... "Ah! Evangeline! So good to see you again!"
Porky quickly paused his game and stood up to greet his diminutive friend.
"So, how goes your undoubtedly sinister machinations?" Porky grinned, a little evilly, "Everything falling into place, I hope! Not so for me, unfortunately. You may not have noticed, but it seems like the Pigmask Club has permanently disbanded. Still, though. I have my health, and for that, I am thankful!"
Porky sat down on one of the sofas and patted the seat next to him.
"Well, Evangeline?" Porky said, "There must be some reason you called me out. Care to tell me what it is?"

After looking around nervously to make sure no nurses were close by, Porky put his right hand into his pants and pulled out his lighter.
"So," Porky whispered, "This ought to come in handy, eh?"
Porky gave a quiet chuckle as he placed the lighter back in his pants, but suddenly grimaced and grabbed his right forearm.
"Ah..." Porky said, wincing a little, "That wasn't the only thing I got last night, though. Take a look at thisPorky pulled up his right sleeve and showed off his bite wound to Evangeline. It may have looked rather normal, but it still hurt quite a bit ( ... )

Kristoph was, in his own standards, becoming a very lazy man. The breakfast with poor little Miss Sohma had been more productive than the time he had spent afterward. Granted, his message had a purpose, but a part of him could not deny the element of boredom. Making men and women react was quite fun, a tad bearable for a day without shelf-upon-shelf of his most cherished nonfiction.
If only it held his interest as the bit of drama developing among his beloved adversaries. He should truly do something to dissuade the growing concern, shouldn't he? No, not concern. Kristoph Gavin did not feel anything beyond cheery goodwill and simple irritation.
And when I.R.I.S. spoke of matters better left in the realm of last week, the man was quickly reminded of an outlet for both.
He quickly searched through the available rooms of the shift, eventually finding his target--despondent as he should be--in the "Game Room". Silently, as not to cause alarm, Kristoph crept behind his little brother and...stood, ( ... )

"And I am perfectly fine." The smile, as quickly as it came, dropped. "You, on the other hand, appear distressed. What is wrong?"

The day was already half over, and Tsubaki had only eaten a pear and was now just finishing up a banana. Taking that into account--taking everything into account, such as last night’s events, and the news that more of her acquaintance had gone missing--Tsubaki didn’t feel up to making use of the chance to go outside, even if safe, controlled exercise would do her good. After seeing he was all right, she’d enjoyed sitting quietly and discussing other topics with Honey, but otherwise…
Otherwise, the heaviness in her heart seemed make the rest of her heavy when there was nothing to distract her ( ... )

Which was painfully true. He just didn't have the attention span to play chess. It was bad enough sometimes having to wait for someone to make a decision on something normal, let alone waiting however long it could take for someone to figure out a chess move. And trying to hold a conversation on top of that would just be a nightmare, specially a conversation where he was trying to find out if what Bats had said was true.
He shot a pleading look at Grell, hoping that might have an effect. "Can't we just talk instead? I mean, I don't think I could concentrate on a game like this while you're sitting across from me."
