week 1, friday

[preowned]

[ they are running into each other in the hall. tsuru pauses when he spots him, and then walks over. ]

Good morning.

[agleam]

...Hi.

[he fortunately had time to get cleaned up before curfew last night, so the only hint of an injury that's visible is the gauze patch still over his eye socket.]

Are you okay?

[preowned]

Shouldn't I be asking you this?

[ he just peers at him for a moment. ]

How was the healing?

[agleam]

[no someone is dead it's ancient history now]

Nothing's bleeding anymore, so - I'm fine.

[preowned]

I want to hear about it, if you're willing.

... but first, other news. Cloud was found in that bar area. It was completely on fire.

[agleam]

—If you went into an area that was on fire, that feels more important?! Are you okay?

[preowned]

Oh, I'm [ COUGHS ] fine.

[agleam]

You coughed.

[preowned]

My grass allergy is coming back.

[agleam]

We're in the hallway...

[preowned]

That we are.

[ ... ]

Tomorrow, we should definitely investigate there first to put out the fire.

[agleam]

Okay, yes, that's a great idea, but again. Are you okay?

[preowned]

I'm okay. I didn't cover my face, so... I might cough a few times.

[ he was in a hurry ]

[agleam]

Do you need some water, maybe?

[preowned]

Oh, that would be good...

Who did you stay with last night?

[agleam]

[he hesitates for a second]

Harrow, Mollymauk, Yuri, Sheila... Lup and Cloud.

[preowned]

Ah... Cloud told me he was going to be with Lup.

[ that sucks. he nods. ]

[agleam]

Yeah. If I realized they were going to be there, I would have picked somewhere else... But I walked in right before the doors locked.

[sometimes this is the only way you can justify your curfew location once you see who else is there]

[preowned]

Would you like to stay with me next week?

[agleam]

Huh? Oh - if that's okay.

[preowned]

That way we can avoid any potentially awkward situations, right?

[agleam]

Yeah, hopefully.

[he does give him a little smile, though.]

I appreciate it, though. Seriously.

[preowned]

Of course. In any case, I'll be more at ease knowing where another friend is on Thursday.

[agleam]

Maybe something cool will open up next week...

[a beat]

Though most things beat the nap room.

[preowned]

... what was the nap room?
