Calm down? Kurogane wasn’t the kind of person to say unnecessary things, so Tsubaki was obliged to take a figurative step back to assess what he meant. Maybe it was true, that she’d been letting this fester for too long, but it was almost too difficult not to. She’d never be as unwavering as Black☆Star. Nonetheless, she was too committed to her way of life to go to pieces like a novice; she took a breath and waited, letting the facts come to her instead of grabbing for them.
Taking a seat and appearing as casual as possible was the reasonable thing to do before they started anything. Nodding, Tsubaki looked back and forth between the two, then moved to take a chair at the table.
"You used the ring to go to town?" she reiterated, speaking quietly in turn. It beat her how the rules governing their inability to talk to others about what they knew where supposed to work--if they could speak to each other about the event and were loud enough for someone else to overhear, would that make the forced silence kick in even around each other? Though more important than that was…
"Does that mean… you went together to look...?"
Of course their companion’s well being was on the line, and Tsubaki couldn’t be surprised if both of them made up their mind to fulfill the task to the letter just to save her. She was an outsider in that.
