Day 37: Sun Room

Joe had read some of the larger notes stuck up on the bulletin board when the announcement came on the intercom. All things considered, this Landel guy didn't even seem so bad. Even if these people were held here against their will, he was certainly nice about it.

Apparently, the new patients - including Joe - were to hang around in the Sun Room or go to Arts and Crafts with the kids. Well, there was plenty of information on the board, including maps and descriptions of monsters, for Joe to prepare for the nighttime, when he could seriously get going on fighting his way out. He could look for where the boss would probably be waiting, or where his V-watch might be, and figure out how to fight the monsters. In fact, he had plenty of time to work all that out... but this the first time he'd had to really relax since he got his powers. So it couldn't possibly hurt to enjoy the calm period, could it?

The red-head stepped back from the board, and hopped back onto a comfy-looking couch to digest in the sunlight. He reached up to pull his cap down, and sighed when he realized it wasn't there. "Oh well, nothing's perfect. I still wouldn't call this hell."

Chidori closed her eyes for a moment. The 18th. So close, and yet useless to her, ultimately. The only thing the Kirijo woman would remember that this boy didn't was that she had sent Junpei away, told him to stop coming to see her. They would never believe her, about what happened. "I'll come. But I'll decide then whether I speak or not."

He nodded. It wasn't a complete win, but he had half-expected to be told that she wouldn't come at all, so he'd take what he could get. "That's fair."

A minute later, he gestured to the bulletin board. "She'll post there once she has the plan in place. And be careful when you're going out tonight. The Dark Hour..." He trailed off, unsure of whether to explain the working theory or not, but in the end, it was only fair. If they were demanding information, they should at least provide some in return.

"It doesn't exist here, as far as we know. It's still dangerous at night, though."
