Second.

A week's distance from the last death seems to have helped some of you, seems to have calmed things down somewhat; the presence of a new floor has helped a little in that endeavor as well – things are a little less claustrophobic, a little more open. Of course, for others things haven't been going as smoothly; between the odd dreams that you've all been experiencing and the Wordsmith's incentive, the added space may just be encouraging distance between you and your fellow Apprentices. It seems that only time will tell how things will progress from here. Friday morning comes, and with it comes the brightening of the lights throughout the University – though it seems there's something a bit wrong with the second floor in that regard. Namely, the workshop remains dark. That's probably going to be a problem. >Explore?

Silver...

[A gentle, shaking hand on his arm.]

S-Silver it won't...do any good.

[feistytrader]

[...Silver looks at Hanyuu for a moment, then slowly nods and retracts his hand.

It's not quite registering just yet, but one thought runs through his head; how did anyone deal with this last time?]

[introspects]

Silver-kun...he's really...

[ Seeing Silver shake his body is just...so heartbreaking. She can't believe Christo's gone. He didn't deserve this. ]

[feistytrader]

[...He's not really sure what's appropriate to say here, so instead he gets up and holds out his arms. Mind the candle, but... Come here, Orihime. Hugs are the best comfort he can really offer.]

[introspects]

[ She will hug him right back. It's almost a bear hug, but just a little more desperate than that. Orihime doesn't cry this time but still shakes, grateful Silver is alive but still in shock over what's happening. ]

You shouldn't stay here. Take Weavile somewhere else, alright? Get yourself some food. You'll need your strength.

[She's on auto-pilot. She has to keep this boy safe.]

[feistytrader]

[Silver stares at Hanyuu for a moment- that's a nice out, and he'd like to take it, but he shakes his head and his expression hardens.]

No. I'm going to help too.

[oyashiromama]

Aah... [She can't stop him if he really wants to. Not with that look on his face.] Alright. I'll be close by if you need me.
