Night 56: Main Hallway, 1-West

[From here.]

He had reached the meeting point in less than a few minutes and there was still not another patient to be seen. Castiel paused, standing near the wall as he moved his flashlight up and down the corridor. There was nothing, not the sound of a shadow slipping through the dark; not the whisper of something less than human.

The only sound was the static that periodically came from his radio. He couldn't seem to get it to let up, and he wondered if it was reacting to him or if he'd been given a faulty one.

He would have preferred the former option, but he had been knocked down too many notches when it came to the loss of his abilities, his divinity, the very things that made him him.

Castiel let out a breath that had been caught in his chest and then lowered his flashlight. He wondered how long this whole process would take, but he supposed that all depended on how well he did as a student. He fashioned himself a fast learner, but he had never been able to grasp things like popular culture.

He imagined he would do a bit better with lockpicking, though. Leaning himself against the wall, Castiel stood there quietly, waiting for Orihara to show himself.

[For Izaya.]

For all that Aidou had unexpectedly become one of Sasuke's more dependable allies in the Institute, there were times that he was forcibly reminded that he'd met the vampire while Aidou had been chowing down on cake in the middle of the night, in a room that had turned out to be infested with lizards made of fire. Now was one of those times, when Aidou's 'demanding' came just short of 'whining', and Sasuke had to resist the urge to roll his eyes at the pointless request.

Fortunately, Sakura seemed sensible enough to not make an issue out of it, and in the next moment someone whose hand size meant it had to be Sai grabbed onto Sasuke. The startled words from Brook made it clear that he was the only one who didn't really know about either ring or their plans for the night.

"We're using a shortcut to save time," he explained as briefly as possible for Brook's benefit, and held up the hand with the ring. Unfortunately -- for Sakura at least -- Sasuke needed that hand free in order to break the ring against the wall, which meant that she was left holding only Aidou's hand as Sasuke braced for the unpleasant sensation of travel and smashed the jewel once more.
