Geez, when Dias said things like that, it almost sounded like Claude was a jerk all the time. He was probably reading too much into it, though. And, anyway, Dias had a pretty thick skin, and it didn't sound like he was too bent out of shape over what had happened. Still, that didn't mean his actions that night were okay. They'd both been under a lot of pressure lately, but that just meant they needed to cooperate more than ever, right?

He was about to open his mouth to say something when the intercom sounded, and nurses began herding captives out of the cafeteria. Before he could get hassled by one of them, Claude went ahead and picked up his tray before standing up. "I'll see you tonight, Dias," he said with a small smile.
