Day 92- Early Afternoon- Courtyard

[harajukumaou]

Yuuri didn't know where to begin in helping search for Julia. He asked around most of yesterday, collecting any little information the guards or maids might have on her. But no one seemed to recall exactly where she had gone or where she might be. Yuuri even delayed this mornings jog to get another round of questions in. But, it seemed like a

Wolf had spent most of the day making sure that Ken was settled, comfortable and not in a position to cause any trouble. He didn't feel he needed to dog Ken's every step but he would keep a close eye on the other boy. The plan for working to clear his name was a good one and Wolf was rather pleased with it. He'd therefore not spent much time looking around for Julia. Besides, he knew that even if he wasn't present, Gwendal's plain clothes guards were.

He was walking down the hallways when out of the corner of his eye he spotted Yuuri looking somewhat on the perplexed side.

Since he was feeling awfully pleased with himself today, and looking good too... he decided to duck through an archway and sneak up on him. It wouldn't be hard to figure out which one he was depending on the reaction.

Tip toe... "Hi!" he smiled once he got within a couple of feet.

The sudden voice made Yuuri jump out of his ski. He turned quickly.
"W-Wolfy," Yuuri sighed. "You scared me! Don't sneak up on people like that.."

Even if Yuuri wasn't in the best of moods the bright smile on Wolfys face did a good number on helping lift his own spirits. It was nice to see him looking so confident. For some time lately Wolfy just didn't have the usual pep in his step.
Or maybe Murata had returned and no one had told him? Wolfy did get moody when it came to Muratas.

"You look really happy, did something good happen?"

Wolf smiled, He liked to hear some spirit in Yuuri's voice. "Anyone can sneak up on you!" he scoffed "You're always staring off into space!" He poked his friend in the ribs with an amused chuckle.

"Well, I've got some things planned to help Ken pay his debt and work hard to prove to you he means what he says. So by good, I suppose you could say that is."

He did look better, though and he looked like he wasn't carrying the weight of the world around on his shoulders anymore.

"How are you?"

[harajukumaou]

"I'm much better after hearing that!" Yuuris interest peaked. It was a heavy burden off his conscious if Wolfy was helping Murata redeem himself. Even if it was in a small way. "That's great to hear! Especially with the news about Julia and all...She's escaped." The kings mood seemed to drop from the mention of it. " We spent all of yesterday trying to find a lead and not a single thing...I feel so frustrated just sitting around with nothing to do to help!" Yuuri ran a hand through his hair in dismay.

He could go upstairs an do paperwork, but he had little confidence that it would take his mind off anything.
