Day 45: Breakfast

Mori woke with a start. He lay on the bed for a moment, staring up at the ceiling and sighed quietly. Another day, another round of shifts and people and-- Wait a minute. Breathing in carefully, Mori's brow knit together as he realized that his ribs were no longer broken. After testing his collarbone, he found that it, too, was healing faster than it should have. Not that he was complaining, but there was something odd about broken bones setting so quickly. Pushing himself up out of bed, the teen shook his head, knowing that he'd have another day or two of the sling and then he'd be free from it.

But more important than that was finding out how Mitsukuni was doing. The last thing he remembered was the bathroom and gathering metal. Since they were together at the end of the night, Mori was certain that Mitsukuni would be fine, but...well, he still liked to confirm such things with his own eyes. With the twins gone and Tamaki still missing, Mori didn't want to take any chances anymore. Especially not with the strange announcements this morning.

As usual, his nurse came to collect him and helped him into his sling. Then he followed her quietly into the cafeteria, taking notice of the unusually empty bulletin board. They really were cracking down on it already. Weird. Even weirder? For once, he was the first into the room. Picking up a tray, he pointed out what he wanted, making sure to take double of the pancakes (asking to keep them away from the sausages for now), double of the strawberry jam and biscuits, and an extra helping of fruit. To top it off? Milk. It'd help his bones mend. Hopefully.

Going to a nearby seat, Mori took a look around the empty room and shivered. Kind of eerie in here without anyone else but the nurses. Someone was certain to come sooner or later though, right? He hoped so at least.

He'd been hoping for Robin to dodge, just to show that he was still paying attention to stuff around him. When it just bounced off, Aiden just growled angrily and sat back down in a huff. Dammit. Robin was just as frustrating here as he'd been in College. No, he was worse here. What Aiden just brushed off back then, he was getting angry over now.

Running a hand back through his hair, Aiden tried to calm himself down by chomping on the remaining tater tots on his plate. By the time they were gone, he was still angry, and staying in place with nothing to focus on would just keep him that way. He looked around the cafeteria to find where Robin had run off to, then got up, but headed for the food line. Maybe it would get his head clear again, having more to eat, but all he could think about in line was that damn idiot. He would be sulking now, which meant he wouldn't be eating.

Aiden sighed hard and asked the lunch lady for something he'd never eat instead. Then he turned to head back to a table.
