Breakfast had ended up surprisingly light, so by the time breakfast rolled around, Kyousuke was in decent spirits. It seemed that, in the face all of the horrible things that happened since he got here, he was beginning to recover and get his priorities back in check. His air of confidence was returning as well, which was good; that was the way things had to be. He had to assume as much control over his own situation as possible.

A shower did sound appealing at the moment, but since the cuts in chest still ran pretty deep, the nurse seemed to think it was best if he pass this time. Privately, he agreed but not for the same reasons. He could probably avoid the sting if he were careful about it, but in the absence of stalls, he could do without exposing to everyone who happened to glance over how beaten up he was. So instead, he was lead to the Sun Room, and contented himself to skim the bulletin for now, although there was nothing particularly interesting or helpful up at the moment.
