Though experimenting with playing cards wasn't exactly the hardest of bodily training, Ophelia did feel that the rigorous testing of her speed, accuracy and throwing power had sharpened her mind for the coming night, and she went out into the night confident that she would be able to handle herself much more gracefully than she had previously. It still irked her greatly that she was no longer able to face any challenge that came her way head on, but she realized now that if she was going to make any progress in attempting to get her power back and shove Martin Landel's balls up his own esophagus, she was going to have to turn down a few fun opportunities here and there.

Ophelia left her room with Kio's maps and a handful of pens in her pockets. She felt more than a little naked without anything else in hand, and she was reminded instantly that she missed not having her full night vision, but no matter. She had to get to the Sun Room quickly. There was no way she was going to get tied up again and miss the opportunity to get further into the basement. The fact that Landel had mentioned something about "down there" specifically in his intercom announcement only made Ophelia more eager.

The Claymore hurried down the hall as fast as she could while making sure she didn't bump into anything in the dark.

He smiled, glad that the gift seemed acceptable to Miku. He wasn't particularly used to having friends, his social skills limited, but he did what he could. "It didn't seem a huge distance," Allelujah agreed. "But distances here seem to be," he paused thoughtfully for a moment before continuing, "odd. Changeable. But I agree. We have to take the chance if we have it." Acting defensively seemed fairly useless.

He nodded at Sousuke. "We should. Which way do you want to head?"

Miku stood up and quietly put on the coat. The sleeves were too long, the hem dragged on the floor and was clearly meant for someone taller and the hood hid her head completely. "Isn't the way out through the recreational field?" she piped up from under the hood and pushed her sleeves up.

"Of course, that means avoiding the birds, too..." she trailed off and nibbled on the inside of her cheek.

Sousuke shook his head. "No, we should exit through the main door. For whatever reason, I've noticed that it is less guarded than the other methods of escape. Also, I cannot scale a wall safely with you on my back, and I don't want to risk your wounds opening again."

He crouched down and let Miku onto his back, easily resuming a standing position. It looked as though he had a cape on--only the cape had a person-shaped bulge under it.

"Let's move."
