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 own brooding thoughts.

"Huh. How far - if you don't mind my asking, that is," Akihiko asked. "And if your friend knows anything, I'd be interested to talk to him myself. You're right about the fact that stuff might be different, especially that far in the future, but anything that might be a clue to getting everyone home's worth looking into, right?"

He made a mental note to poke around on the board about that, as well as talking to Mitsuru once she was up and around again. In the meantime, it was food for thought. And speaking of food, it looked like the nurses were starting to mill around, escorting people to dinner.

"Oh gosh. I don't remember the exact date." Leon thought hard, but there were too many numbers stored away in his head and Claude couldn't have mentioned it more than one. He sighed in frustration. "It was a good several hundred years ahead of this time at least. I'm sorry I can't give a more approximate answer."

The nurses were indeed starting to come around, and Leon stood as the cat finally hopped down from his lap. "I'll speak to you some other time, I'm sure." He bid farewell with a weak smile.
