"They'll still be listening," Taura said, tilting her head at the medtech and orderly that had followed them in. "But they either know everything or think we're crazy." Her expression said exactly how little she cared about either. It was other patients that might matter, if Rita had had to do something drastic.

She found a couple of chairs, and sat down in one -- Rita might stay standing if she did, but that would be silly. "What happened?"

Going with Taura, huh... Rita hadn't had much luck with teams lately, but she'd made progress with Taura before. Maybe this could work. "I'll have my spells and whip," she assured her. "You'd better bring that healing stone." As for weapons, Rita was fairly sure Taura had it covered.

However, Taura's words made Rita curious. "Where did you go that was off-limits before?" She was a little surprised that she hadn't heard about it before, but maybe that was a sign that there was a catch to that discovery.

"And a few other things." Taura did, indeed, have it covered. You could kill anything with a stunner, once it was down, and she had several options for close-in weaponry.

"There's a door on the second floor." Her voice dropped half an octave and down to a conspiratorial volume. "The history club had a key, but no one claimed to have it after Okita disappeared. If someone does, they're not telling. It lead to a room full of nurses -- and weapons. S'where I got my claws," she added, waggling her fingers. Rita'd seen them, so she'd know Taura wasn't talking about the sad little soft things covered in chipping nail polish on the ends of her fingers -- the metal ones were even better than her real claws, albeit without as much finesse.
