Day 28: Germaine Street
Rhode didn't want to have to let go of Allen, not ever. It could be forever before she was able to be with him again! But the nurses were persistent in moving her off the big yellow thing, as was Allen for getting away from her. Even outside of the building, people were just determined to keep her from being with him! It wasn't fair!
Once off the bus and shivering just slightly from the crisp fall air, Rhode was handed a small booklet of what the nurse called "coupons". It took some explaining, but Rhode was eventually able to understand that the thin pieces of paper in the book were supposed to be used like money here. She wasn't at all accustomed to buying things for herself; that was supposed to be the Earl's job. When Rhode expressed this problem, the nurse only gave her a sad smile and patter her in the direction of the buildings.
"Why don't you go find something fun to do? There's a toy store just around the corner there. Don't worry about being alone though, we're all here to keep an eye on you. If anything happens, just come get one of us," the nurse explained, nodding to the staff members that were set to parole the town for any problems their more unruly patents could cause.
So, they were all going to be watched even though they could roam about freely? Rhode took a look back towards the yellow things but was unable to pick out Allen from the mess of patients. In a few moments, she probably wouldn't be able to find him at all or for the rest of the day. Should she just resign herself to that for now and use the small bit of freedom to her advantage? Being with Allen was important, and a lot of fun but...
She glanced down at the coupons again, smiled up at the nurse as best she could, and gave a quick, "Okay!" before running off as suggested.
A small bit of freedom was bound to make her feel better. Maybe she could use it to remind herself of how she was supposed to handle Allen Walker, an exorcist. This town did have a similar air to that of the Rewinding Town, after all.

"I need to know what we owe for Schuldig," he said tiredly, knowing he'd probably have to fight every bit of information out of Yohji. "And before you even think about it," he added quickly, throwing another warning glance at Yohji. "Don't lie to me. I think we're beyond the point where we could afford that."
no subject
He practically flinched when the telepath's name was brought up, lowering his eyes and a tired expression appearing on his face. He should have known that this would be brought up, had been expecting it since that night. He'd been a fool to ignore it this long and now he'd probably ruined any chance of anything between Schwartz and Weiss which just made them more vulnerable.
He turned his head away guiltily, the warning glance making it clear that he was entirely untrustworthy in Aya's eyes right now. "I didn't know. Honestly. It was an agreement to not attack each other when we were the only ones here. He told me a few things, gave me a little information, like where Ken was the other night."
And instantly he winced, realising that he'd probably said entirely too much with that one comment. Fuck.
no subject
"Yohji," he said silently, pausing his steps even if he considered it stupid and turned towards the blond. "This is not an accusation, I just need to know the facts that affect all of us."
They had parted with harshly spoken words the other night, Aya didn't regret, per se. But there was time when he could indulge in childish display of temper and times when not. This would be of the later variety. Personally he would have liked to know what Yohji had been doing with Schuldig. And why. He would have liked to demand and spit upon the demands at the same time. But the colder side of him that was unfortunately winning the arguments within more often than not, reminded him that he couldn't afford the luxury of personality if he wanted to win at this game.
"I need you to decide," he said firmly, reaching for Yohji, and while clasping his shoulder, he lifted the shirt to cover more skin. "Omi's just too young. We can't lean onto him this time. It should be the other way around." Aya had never thought he'd be here, giving this speech. Or that he'd be capable of it even. Kikyo must have been right, Shion had taught him more than just how to handle his sword. "We need to stop fighting the futile fights."
no subject
He tensed beneath the touch, letting Aya do whatever he wanted with that damn shirt. It would just slip down again anyway, what with it being a couple of sizes too big at least. "Decide what?" he asked quietly. He knew... he knew they had to help and support Omi, knew that they couldn't keep fighting amongst themselves, but things were so fucked up that he didn't see how that could even happen.
no subject
Frustrated and tired of talking to brick walls sometimes could be called teammates as well, he grabbed Yohji's chin and turned the man's face towards himself. "I don't care what you've done with Schuldig. In fact, I'm glad you were clever enough to reach out for someone. But you better remember where your loyalties lie. You told me I could trust you. It seems you're hellbent on making me believe otherwise." This easily Shion's lessons were forgotten as well. Maybe Aya just had a bit too much temperament.
"Stop being a whiny idiot, and clean up!" The last words were snapped with narrowed eyes, Yohji's chin released with annoyance. Aya hated admitting weakness, or needing someone.
[apologies on the brainless factor of the post. So tired I can hardly see straight. X__o]
no subject
He flinched when his chin was grasped and he was forced to meet Aya's eyes. He'd care if he knew, or maybe he wouldn't. He'd done the same with Tsuji after all, and with others Kritiker wanted information from. He smiled weakly. "I don't trust myself. I can't exactly expect anyone else to."
He turned away, shoulders slumping as he was released. "I'm sorry."
no subject
"Fine, Yohji, just wallow in your self-pity and regret. I suppose that is the only selfish way out of this, right?"
He watched Yohji's back for a moment, biting on his lip hard enough to draw blood, the metallic tang on his palate nauseating and yet grounding. He had tried every spell in the book, obviously nothing was working. The truth would come out would he like it or not. Omi would just have to have his head for it, or Ken, or whomever. Maybe the person Yohji had been waiting for. But this was Aya, and Yohji, would he have ever bothered to find out, would have known Aya couldn't just watch from the sidelines, he'd rather not watch at all if he couldn't help it.
"We'll talk about this again when you have grown out a spine," he said sharply, then turned away and started walking.
no subject
"I never claimed to be anything but selfish, you know that," he snapped back in return although the words felt like a physical blow to his chest. Selfish idiot, Kudoh. Always putting himself first before the rest of Weiss. Heh, why else would he have sold them out if he were anything but?
He visibly flinched at Aya's parting words but made no move to stop the other man from walking away. He clasped his hands around the back of his neck and squeezed his eyes shut, fingernails digging into his skin.
