Night 67: Main Hallway, 1-West

[ofthemotions]

[from here --and waiting for Ryusei!]

There still wasn't a lot of people in the halls, and it was starting to make him nervous. Maybe he should try to find someone to hang out with tonight. Snow and Celty had insisted on how Mikado shouldn't be alone at night--it wouldn't hurt to take their advice. But it would be strange to just go up to someone and ask to walk around with them.

...Wouldn't it?

He made a face, and paused in the hall, looking around. He was more aware of the bandages covering his eye in the dim, and even wearing his own clothes didn't negate that uncomfortability. He was suddenly starting to think he should have just stayed inside.

Messy, huh. Anise was starting to feel glad it hadn’t happened in her block. Luke was starting to get a little weird with his theories, but fortunately Guy was there to be the voice of reason. “Yeah,” Anise chimed in, a little uneasy with the gory mental image, but she was staying calm enough. “We don’t know anything for sure, but there’s nothing we can do. Let’s just be careful.”

As for what they should be doing… that was a good question. There were those caverns they’d been exploring up until recently, but maybe that wasn’t a good idea when two of them were recovering from a serious illness. That, and Luke didn’t have a bracelet.

“Hmm… maybe the Greenhouse wouldn’t be a bad idea,” she offered, arms crossed as she mulled over her thoughts. “I mean, the Head Doctor knows that people want to go there tonight, so it wouldn’t be weird if he put a trap there. Maybe we could make sure there’s a safe path for people who still need help.” He did say something about getting lost, after all. Maybe he was going to make it so people couldn’t reach the cure so easily.

[dispersive]

Luke slowly dragged his light from off the ceiling after the lack of positive feedback he got on his theories. They would be sorry if it was a ghost and it overheard them! They were supposed to be bad tempered, right? It wouldn't take this pessimistic attitude lightly.

But the group had a point, and there was no point in dwelling on the unknown. Animal or person/ghost, it was long gone so they might as well do something productive with their night. Claude's suggestion wasn't bad, and if what the Head Doctor said was true they should probably help out where help is needed.

"Then we should definitely go help!" Plenty of patients here were civilians on top of being sick. That was a bad combination if Landel knew they were coming for a cure. "Shouldn't take us too long... Come on." Directing his light down the hallway, Luke lead the team toward the greenhouse.
