Well, he didn't hear anything else in the room. That was a plus. He stopped just inside the door, holding his hand out for Yohji to give him his flashlight back. There wasn't much to see in the dark, but there hadn't been too much to see in the light, either. Not that he'd spent much time looking earlier.

She'd called him Omi. How much of their 'fake' lives were included in those folders? How much of it would ring true? He wanted to find out, but first, "Okay, Yohji-kun?"

"So then you get back to why us specifically." A possibly infinite selection of people from across a possibly infinite number of dimensions and worlds, and they chose this specific group of people.

He eyed Yohji. "Like, why me instead of your Mamoru?"

Yohji nodded helplessly, a wry smile on his lips. Compared to some of the people here, Weiss really were nothing special. No special powers, nothing except being able to kill and a ridiculous ability to survive even when the odds were stacked against them.

He looked back at Omi and shrugged. "I can't say it hasn't crossed my mind. You're from so much further back then use three." He made a face. "And he's not my anything." Except his boss. That was all.

He rolled his eyes at Yohji. "You know what I mean. He's from your time." He really didn't like the idea that he was going to grow up to be somebody who would get that reaction out of Yohji, but seeing as they'd only made up such a short time ago, he didn't think this was perhaps the best time to mention it.

"And exactly. I'm from further back. Would it make more sense to take a person from the peak? If time isn't an issue, and it's obviously not. So why not take him instead of me?" Assuming, of course, that he hadn't been horribly disfigured or crippled or something, but Omi was pretty sure one of the others would have mentioned that.

"Yeah, I know," Yohji replied, giving Omi an apologetic smile. He shouldn't bring up Mamoru around Omi, he knew that. It was just still so strange and good to have Omi here rather than Mamoru. He wasn't entirely certain how Mamoru would have reacted here, but he doubted it would have been good.

He frowned, trying to think of any kind of reason and comin up with only one. "Maybe it's just another mind game," he suggested. "None of us are sure of how we should act and well, you've seen what happened."

((Ha! Take THAT continuity! Also- plotted out with Yohji-mun, aka not-radio-godmodding))

"It's-" He stopped before he could answer when Yohji's radio clicked on. He really did need to start carrying one of those, too, but for now he had Yohji's. "Outside? You think she's serious?"

Meanwhile, outside the room, there was the dull crash of someone, or maybe something, breaking down one of the other doors in the hallway. Sounded like it might be their cue to leave. Omi edged closer to the door, listening.

[XDD Absolutely]

Yohji paused as well, listening to the announcement with some interest, especially after the announcement on the intercom earlier. He frowned at the mention of going outside and then looked over at Omi. He shrugged. "There was that weird intercom announcement earlier," he said. "Might be worth taking a look at least." They could survey the area from the top of the wall perhaps, and find out if it was true.

"Yeah. Can't hurt, at least. I don't have any other plans for tonight." He tucked the report between his waistband and the small of his back where it would hopefully stay fairly secure. Just his luck if he came all this way for it, then lost it. "Be careful, though. It's getting later, so who knows what's out wandering the halls."

Yohji laughed softly and nodded. "Yeah, me either. Not exactly like we can go and rent a movie or something." Not that this was particularly different to a lot of their nights. Breaking and enetering, theft of important documents, a bit of murder on the side. "Yeah. We could try the greenhouse yard. That leads outside and I think the wall was climbable."
