There were some things that you just didn't tell people, right.

That was why Badou had emptied out the ashtrays before Schuldig arrived. Because that would have been like evidence or something-not evidence that Axel's death had shaken him. It was unfortunate, yeah, but…hell, how long had it been since he'd seen the guy? They weren't friends but of course they'd met. And it had been a week, at best. But it just felt so distant.

The thing that got to him was Schuldig, and just not knowing what the hell to say. Because this wasn't the sort of thing you could talk about, right. Well, maybe Schuldig could, and if he wanted to Badou would listen. But for Badou this was one of those things that evacuated words, left him feeling like the more he tried to say, the more hollow he became ( ... )

No matter what the hell was going down in Badou's apartment, Schuldig was just relieved he was in Badou's apartment.

Deaths were bizarre. You built up so much common routine with a person when you lived with them that suddenly having it pulled out from under you left you fumbling for something, reaching out for a banister that wasn't there or turning the corner to find you were suddenly on the wrong fucking street without any fucking clue how you'd gotten there in the first place.

Just walking or whatever. Just heading for somewhere he knew, and Badou was somewhere he knew. Schuldig looked over at him for a long moment, maybe longer than necessary, the sharp cut of his features undermined by a sudden vulnerability that he couldn't hide all the time, just mostly almost every day ( ... )
