Day 39: Sun Room [Fourth Shift]
Yue was all too pleased to leave the cafeteria by the time lunch was over, even if he still wasn't satisfied that Fai was properly taking care of himself. It was clear that Touya hadn't accepted the answers he'd been given and intended to find out just what the guardian wasn't telling him, and being watched so closely was beginning to get uncomfortable.
It was clear that the truth would have to come out at some point, especially if they were going to be spending any amount of time together. Avoiding him was entirely out of the question, but at the same time Yue stubbornly refused to consider the idea of just outright telling him about what had happened in the last week. It was a dilemma indeed, and only served to make him even more irritable than ever.
How could he admit any of it? That he was weak and crippled, betrayed and altered by his creator? That he'd almost broken the promise he'd given in exchange for Touya's power? The latter he couldn't help but be reminded of every time he saw this Touya, who had only just gone through it, and would remember it even more clearly.
Fortunately Yukito was staying silent for the moment, although he could feel his other self's disappointment at being unable to speak to Touya so far, and it didn't make him feel any better.
In the midst of all this Yue was rather dismayed to realize that the nurse wanted to lead him to the music room, of all places: that was the room where he'd met the Sakura-who-wasn't-his-Sakura the week before, and needed neither the reminder nor the inevitable noise in that room. He abruptly halted in his tracks and refused to continue on. The nurse seemed initially disappointed, but finally agreed to let him stay in the Sun Room instead; the guardian found a corner in which to stand, arms folded across his chest and lost in his ownbrooding thoughts.

Now there were two people apologizing. For no reason. Kurogane just didn't get why it was always him these kinds of people decided they needed to be around.
"Said 'm fine," he repeated pathetically, looking away from the girl once again.
no subject
"N-no you're not!" she said after hearing Kurogane's pathetic response. She continued to wipe the tears away and sniffled. He was being ridiculously stubborn, maybe it was a guy thing, but he needed to listen! Chise searched her mind for a way to make him listen and found one. It worked in one of the shojo manga she read before, and it could possibly work here as well. Nervously, she grabbed Kurogane's (only)hand and held it close to her chest.
"I-I'm sorry, but it's alright to admit that you're not okay and it doesn't mean that you're weak or anything. It means that you have an incentive to get stronger. I-if it'll help you, can you tell us what happened? Please?"
no subject
What she did next, however, was even worse. Admittedly, Keman hadn't spent much time with Kurogane, but what he knew about the man gave him a very strong impression that what she had done was not a Good Idea.
"Er...really, Kurogane, you don't have to tell us. It's all right."

at her chestso close to her?!He tried to pull it back, but apparently a determined, teary-eyed schoolgirls were stronger than sedated ninja. The weakness against a small girl's hand only irritated him more, and since he wasn't able to do anything about it, he sneered as best he could and looked away again.
"I don't... know how it happened!" he hissed, angry and ashamed at even have to admit to that.
no subject
He didn't know how he lost his arm? The thought of it was frightening, to suddenly wake up without an arm. It was possible that something horrible had happened. Takaya mentioned that everything was different at night. She started rubbing his hand in comfort, to reassure that it was okay. "Do you think something at night did this to you? I-I'm new here and I don't know much about what happens at night, except that there are monsters roaming the hallways. If you're not strong enough I-I can help protect you," she gave him a small smile. "I'm strong."
no subject
So Kurogane didn't know how it had happened? That was...odd. Usually, one tended to notice when one lost an appendage, especially one as important as an arm. Or maybe he was just being evasive and didn't want to answer.
Keman wouldn't have blamed him, really.
As for the girl...the dragon was hard-pressed not to smile. She was just so earnest about the whole thing. He rather doubted that she was as strong as she claimed to be (though you never knew in this place; Ururu was living proof of that), but that she was offering to help like that was oddly...endearing.

pettingrubbing did not fall into that category. He grunted and looked back at her with as much of a glare as he could manage. "Don't pet me," he ordered, then tugged his hand again to see if she would let go.And as if his pride hadn't taken enough of a hit, she thought he wasn't strong! Not only that, but that she could protect him! Of all the days he'd spent here, this was the worst one for yet another little girl to try and say she could do such a thing. "Don't insult me!" he snapped, some force behind his words this time. He wasn't weak. He wasn't! He didn't need protecting or pity or anything else!
no subject
"I'm not insulting you! I'm telling you that you're in no condition to fight. There's a high chance that you could die because you're not used to fighting with a missing arm. How can you protect those who are important to you if you're dead?" She tightened her grip. "I-If you won't listen to me, at least promise me that you won't foolishly fight by yourself in order to prove that you're strong."
