"Confiscated items are normally kept hidden away - or, when cruelty shows its ugly head, are thrown away - by..." The doctor paused. "Well, I can't tell you that, can I?"
An indifferent shrug. "This may sound absurd, but if it sounds like a better alternative, I can keep the chain for you. You will know it is in good hands and you can, of course, keep your dog tags. I am quite confident that you are capable enough not to lose them." He gave the slightest smile as he said this; honestly, this man amused him.
"What do you say?"

These two were right, and he was acting like a spoiled child for disagreeing. It wasn't like him to defy rules in his favor, anyways. Perhaps there was something wrong with him that made him act this way. He couldn't have always been so boneheaded.
He did worry about losing them, though, and he sure as hell didn't trust his roommates to keep their grubby hands out of his stuff...
One lip quirked upwards with little amusement as he dipped his head and removed the chain from around his neck. Torn then pulled the bead from the clasp in back, letting his dog tags fall into one large hand. Once he'd pocketed both, he offered the chain to his doctor.
"I'd say I'll need it back when I leave."

At least he was cooperating now. The slate-haired boy looked pleased when he handed the chain over, glad that there wouldn't be much more of a hassle over this.
"What is your name?" At least now that he knew the tall male wasn't as idiotic as he had seemed in his first impression, Zexion was a little more interested in him. Perhaps in the future he would see him again, and it would be good to know his name if that was the case. Through his whole conversation Black Jack and Zexion hadn't shared their names with the man, and vice-versa, and it almost seemed silly.

When Zexion asked for the other man's name (though he was rather sure he had heard the stubborn patient's name once), it occurred to him that he had not given his own. It would have been a lot of trouble if he had to look for a doctor whose name he didn't even know.
"When you do need it, look for Dr. Black Jack." Why he began talking in a third-person point of view confused even him. "... Room 102," he added as an afterthought.
