Day 25: Sun Room (Fourth Shift)

[whiteychan.livejournal.com]

The concept of gardening in the greenhouse was not one that Hitsugaya was particularly fond of. It was likely exceptionally warm inside, whereas the young captain had a preference for cold climates. He also needed to make himself available for anyone who happened to want to speak with him. The sun room overall seemed the best choice.

As a warm and cheerful nurse led him into the sunroom, he glanced around. At the moment he was the first one there, which was good, as it meant he could keep an eye out for one of the many individuals who had expressed curiosity about the 'arts and crafts' division. It also meant he could watch out for Omi or this Hellsing woman. He excused himself from the nurse and proceeded to a seat that gave him a good view of the entrance. If not for the fact that he was being held here against his will, he might have felt happy. Real rice. He hadn't had time to eat as much as he had hoped, what with his meeting with Mustang, but he still ate a lot more than he'd had the opportunity previously. Even Momo seemed to be acting more like normal.

As unpleasant as the day had begun, it was turning out to be a good day.

Tamaki remained quiet. He knew he didn't have a place to speak here, but....

He watched this other person very carefully, listening very carefully to what he was saying, an unreadable look on his face. His mind was somewhat numbed, but he wasn't completely inable to comprehend new information.

Even when it was coming in small bits and peices.

Kenshin smiled fondly at the two boys. He knew that what he had said hadn't been exactly what they had wanted to hear, but he liked to think that he'd given hope to them nonetheless. Plus, he was just as glad as Adel that he hadn't lied. He was a terrible lier (as Kaoru-dono was fond of reminding him). His face showed everything, which was why Sano always had to sneak him out of the house if he wanted to go drinking or gambling. Kenshin couldn't be trusted to keep their destination a secret.

"No, this one has not killed for over ten years. The vow remains unbroken."

Not killing for over ten years... that was almost unbelievable. So long without killing, to hold to a vow for that long, without a single exception. Adelheid felt jealous, especially since, well, he was almost certain he couldn't hold to that vow. Not considering his own life. Still, all he could do would be to fight for that kind of life, if that was his only choice for the future.

"With the weapon you asked for, it is possible, I suppose... but have you had many occasions where you might have to break that vow?" If Kenshin hadn't needed to break his vow, if his life had been easy enough where the vow hadn't been put to the test, then there'd be even less of a reason to believe that Adelheid himself had a chance. Still... if there was even the slightest hope...
