Nightshift 37: M51-M60 Hallway

[high-prosecutor.livejournal.com]

The conversation with Mikami had left Edgeworth with a lot of food for thought. He was glad that he'd agreed to work with the History Club that night, rather than going along with Mello up to the patient possessions room and the file rooms. While it was true that it could very possibly get his suit dirty, well, he was hoping to avoid that as much as possible. There wasn't a dry cleaner in Landel's Institute as far as he was aware.

And so, he took a pillowcase, his flashlight, a single scalpel, and his notebook along with him, and left, hoping that his partner for the night wouldn't mind carrying most of what they'd find.

When he saw Takashi shake his head, he was able to breathe a sigh of relief. He'd feel really bad if everyone thought those things about Soubi. The twins were probably just taking one of their jokes too far, which wasn't all that strange for them.

"He just wants to protect his friend," Honey explained, starting on his ice cream. "I told him we would help him learn to fight. He said he's not very good, but hnn... I bet it would help a lot." Not just for Soubi, but for a lot of the people here. He didn't know if he wanted to start teaching again seriously, but he also didn't want his friends going out at night unprepared.

When he finished the bowl, he set it down near the wall, all set to go, but not sure where to start. Phones again? Maybe tonight that front desk place would be clear.

Mitsukuni sighed in relief and Mori did a little, too. If small things like that started to build up, the stress would make Mitsukuni unhappy and with what little time he had with his cousin, Mori didn't want anything more to stress him out. Or maybe that was just Mori's stress. Hm...things to think about. Kneeling down, he turned so Mitsukuni could climb easily onto his back and waited.

If Soubi just wanted to protect his friend, then Mori understood his feelings quite well. Not everyone as small as Mitsukuni had the benefit of being able to take care of himself. If the kid wanted to learn how to defend himself, then Mori would be happy to teach him or to let Mitsukuni teach him. The rest of the Host Club could probably use it, too, come to think of it.

Now that everything was settled and the small bit of tension was gone between them, Mori turned his thoughts to what they were going to do that night. "Front room?" he asked, wondering if they were going to try for phones. "Or kitchen?"

Honey didn't waste time in climbing onto his cousin's shoulders. It felt safer there, and without Usa-chan tonight, he needed that extra support. Once he made it all the way up, he held his flashlight at the ready, tiny sentinel for their journey.

"Front room first," he decided. Hopefully those weird monster things wouldn't be around tonight.

"Hnnn," he glanced down the hallway toward their next destination. "If anything is bothering you too Takashi, it's okay to say something." Tamaki wouldn't share everything, he knew the twins were still keeping a lot to themselves, but Takashi had always been pretty open. He just hoped this place wouldn't change that.

Come to think of it, Mori did wonder where Usa-chan was. Mitsukuni always had the bunny with him and now it was oddly missing. Perhaps he had put it to rest? He couldn't imagine Mitsukuni giving it away for any reason. Unless someone else really needed it and even then...

Front room. Got it. With his cousin on his shoulders, Mori stood and started down the hall.
