It was true that pretending to be Claude would be pretty awkward; more than that, he wouldn't feel entirely comfortable doing it, but he'd wanted to seem open to the option for Claude's sake. The fact that his friend decided to steer away from that just made things easier on Guy's end. He doubted that he could perfectly copy Claude's handwriting, anyway.

What he was shocked to hear was that Claude had actually managed to run into other patients last night -- more surprisingly, his own father. It sounded as if not everyone had ended up going home in the same way that Guy, Anise, and Luke had, then. Which was odd, but maybe it had something to do with the three of them teaming up like they had. In the end, Guy was glad for it -- if everyone had been "home," then no one would have been able to find Claude and help him out.

Doing his best to remember the wording as exactly as he could, Guy ran that first part through his head a few times as he let Claude think the rest of it through, staring out over the chapel until he was pretty sure he had it down by heart.

When Claude brought up the rest, Guy nodded. "All right, yeah, that sounds good to me. I'll do my best to respond to them quickly, but I won't give them any details about it or anything." That was definitely something that Claude likely wanted to do himself -- and more than that, it wouldn't be fair to his friends if they found out second-hand like that. Luckily, being vague on the board was a pretty simple thing to do.
