Day 55: Courtyard [4th Shift]
Talking with friends usually put Anise in a better mood, but the subjects that she, Guy, and Tear covered at lunch were so heavy that Anise couldn't help but feel weighed down afterward. It was hard to think and talk about the terrible things that came about from her lies. She wasn't going to cry, not now, but she felt like she needed a little space.
Fortunately, children were going out to the Courtyard today, and that sounded like a good, wide area where she could get a little alone time. The fresh air could help her mood, too.
When Anise reached the door, however, a blast of cold air rushed in at her, and all she could see outside was a blinding veil of whiteness. For a moment, she simply stared at the sight. She never saw much for snow at Landel's, but here it had already covered everything in just one day!
"You might need this," a soldier said, presenting a black jacket to her. The color and style really didn't suit Anise, but it looked expensive. She slipped it on, and while it wasn't as feminine as she liked her clothes to be, the lining actually had a nice feel to it. On the left breast, she noticed a name embroidered over it. It wasn't her name, but it was still kind of impressive that they personalized these things.
Outside, snow had settled onto every surface, like a big fluffy blanket over the ground. Anise walked along the path for a bit, creating a single set of footprints in the otherwise smooth surface. Once she was a fair distance from the doors, she diverged from the path (which was barely visible to begin with) and walked to the edge of the pond, watching the falling snowflakes disappear into the water.
It was a pretty sight, but it wasn't enough to completely take her mind off of Ion. Before long, Anise found herself wondering if it was snowing where Ion was, too. Maybe he was really far away, though...

no subject
The snow-blanketed courtyard was a rare sight, though Claude couldn't help but wonder whether they'd see more of that in the coming weeks. (Weeks? Were they still going to be trapped here several weeks from now? There was no way to know for certain.)
It sure was a good thing their uniforms came with warmer clothing, he thought to himself. Actually, these outfits were much nicer in quality that what Landel had them wear, although they definitely weren't as comfortable. It was temping to just undo his shirt or take off his beret, but Claude had a feeling the soldiers would get on his case about it, especially on the first day.
Instead, he focused on finding Anise, and his gaze swept over the area. It didn't take long to find the girl, and only a split second more to realize she was already talking to someone. Claude's instinct was to leave her to it, but one look at the other patient's face made him stiffen for a moment.
Sync.
He wasn't sure what pissed him off more -- the fact that bastard was still hanging around while perfectly good people like his own father had disappeared, or that he had the gall to harass Anise in broad daylight. Did he honestly think no one would see?
Scowling, Claude marched across the snow toward the two of them.
