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.

That this entire thing was set up by hell was still without question. There was no other way his not-quite-but-more-or-less divine powers could be stifled so, and no other source would want to. (Well, technically, Upstairs could manage just as well as Downstairs, but demons and torture and all that hadn't been Their gig for Millenia.)
So. If the patients were all stuck here, inflicted with the same torments, most of them should be safely non-demonic entities. The staff, on the other hand, were something else entirely. (Which meant his roommate did perhaps just have the most unfortunate name in the world.)
Crowley stared at Light for a few seconds after making these conclusions. There was something about him, something he could almost - righteous. Somebody was righteous. He'd seen it enough times to know. Interesting.
"It does make a semblance of sense. There's a considerable amount of effort going into all of this, and if we all die off during nightshift, it kills the fun - and the plans - of whomsoever is in charge. Or maybe it's a test, for all of us here. I'm assuming the unpleasant voice over the intercom was the man responsible for all of this?"

But then again, maybe it wasn't. The town was full of distractions after all, and from what he could see of the patients around them, people were far more preoccupied with other matters. Maybe it was time he sought the man out on his own.
As if just thinking of something, Light grimaced suddenly and said, "My apologies, Crowley-san, but I need to get going. I'd arranged to meet with a friend of mine and I'm afraid I've kept him waiting longer than I anticipated." He bowed. "I hope we can continue this conversation later, though. It was nice talking to you." Even better would have been if he'd been able to learn why Crowley's name and lifespan were so peculiar, but he could always do that later.
