Nightshift 29: M31-M40 Hallway

[i-slay-giants.livejournal.com]

Another unexciting dinner led into to another shot at busting out of the institution as Nightshift rolled around. Of course, Jack had other plans to attend to first. He had been rather interested in crashing paying a visit to M98 after the bulletin promised "cigarettes, booze, and sandwiches". The "manflesh" he could do without, but even if he wasn't welcome (last time he checked, he wasn't a hot lady, though the way things were going, who knew what tomorrow held?), he'd strong arm his way in and take what he wanted!

Sliding from his room into the hall with his maps and flashlight, the Fable set out to find his way to the party and may score some liquor and smokes.

Kurama not appearing during dinner had confirmed his conclusion that his roommate was gone. It wasn't that he'd known the other boy all that well, but there was just... just something familiar and safe about having a roommate you could trust. Probably trust.

He swore softly as the lights finally went out and the doors clicked open. Now was not at all like then, he told himself firmly, resisting the urge to curl up in a ball on the bed and hide from whatever might be waiting for him. He did, however, flick on his flashlight and make a break for the hallway and people a bit quicker than was normal.
