It wasn't until movement that Tear realized they had stood for some time by the cafeteria entrance. The detail normally would have been passed over as inconsequential, except Guy happened to have a food tray in his possession. After shooting the man an apologetic glance, she followed him to the table and occupied a seat.
Despite the detour, she continued answering Guy's questions. In her option, they were crucial enough to be addressed without pause. "Yes," replied Tear, "though there must have been a quite a few left in the institute as well." Otherwise, the Head Doctor likely would not have bothered with an announcement. Either the man needed a specific message addressed, or he was an extreme narcissist.
She would hardly be surprised if both proved to be true.
With a shake of the head, Tear laid both hands across her lap, fingers clutching the cloth absentmindedly. "I didn't make it to the entry room." An unfortunate fact of the night, but something she was slowly learning to swallow down. "If one of the bulletin notes is correct, however, it may have involved the deaths of two people."
