The UnNamed Door IC

[Mikedcresswell]

Alucard noticed the cafeteria begin to empty, and took great pleasure in leaving aswell. As he walked saw those 2 boys at the far end of a corridor,

"Now thats an interesting pair... Dai better be careful, David seems a loose cannon..." He mumbled to himself as he walked.

Following another corridor, Alucard noticed an orderly, one he remembers is a smoker, he had watched him walk, noticed his cigarettes are always in the same sidepocket, never quite in and always with a lighter inside... Mayfair, just like he used to smoke.
He wanted them, needed them, HAD to get them.

"Time to remember what it was like on the streets Al, Nothing cannot be stolen, nothing"

Slowly and smoothly he slid past the orderly, slightly bumping into him, grunting as he went to mask the feeling and sound of card on cloth.

"OI, watch it kid, or I'll have Dr. Elder take those precious shoes of yours off you! Brat..." The Orderly barked.

"S-sorry sir, wont happen again sir..." Alucard muttered, acting terrified.

As he turned to walk away, he heard a huff from behind, a grin spread across Alucards face, "Mine now sucker..." whispered almost silently as he slid back down the long corridors out of site...

Celia smiled at Jarrett and replied, Good morning to you too, Jarrett. She glanced back at Josie and asked, "Are you sure? You seem a bit anxious." She glanced at both of twins before saying again, "How about you two come into my office and I can fix us up each a cup of hot chocolate. I'm technically not supposed to be working today so I won't prompt you with questions. We can just, you know, hang out."

She could hear Dr. Elder and glanced down the hallway and wondered what he was up too but Celia turned her attention back to the twins and smiled, waiting for their reply.

Josie wanted to shout no, to hide behind her brother or to run and hide. Anything to avoid the painful, forced conversation that was almost guarenteed to occur. Unlike most patients at the Lymphaticus Institue, Josie wasn't afraid of talking to people, she just disliked it. She'd rather just stay with her brother. Often her dread of conversation was mistaken for fear.

Instead, she forced a smile and said
"Sure, why not?"
She had to be polite, if Dr James worried about them in any way she would go straight to Dr Elder. Josie shuddered at the thought of another evaluation session with him.

She looked at her twin with a sympathetic look on her face. Now that she'd agreed she knew he would feel like he also had to. Josie just hoped they wouldn't have to stay too long and that Dr James really wouldn't ask any questions.

Standing still for a moment, Jarrett felt any sense of courage or confidence curl up in the pit of his stomach and die. He hoped that by facing socialising with someone, Josie might find a way to slip away unnoticed. Thinking about it, Jarrett realised that his plan did not extend much further than that. What he was supposed to do post those events, he had not considered.

Jarrett collected the sympathy from his sister’s eyes; he knew that she knew he was going to go in with her. Despite possessing the advantage of an easy escape. Hot chocolate and ‘hanging out’ was the last thing Jarrett wanted to do right now. Well... he was sure there were a few things he would prefer this too, but there weren’t many.

Jarrett looked left and right, for some sort of distraction or excuse. But there were none. His stomach churned, he clutched it, his left eye twitching slightly. He stood up straight, took a deep breath in, and stepped forward.

Dai's blush got a few shades brighter as David caught him, he was a bit frozen before pulling away from him a bit. It wasn't that Dai didn't want David to touch him, he just wasn't sure what to do.

"R-...Right, s-sorry..."

Just when his blush started to settle down, David just had to make a joke. The light pink on his cheeks turned into a bright red, he moved a hand to try and cover his face as he felt himself heat up. Of course Dai couldn't quite tell if he was kidding or not, he wasn't very experienced in the world of humor. If the timid boy could hide into his hat, he would right now; but he settled for keeping his head low.

"I-I don't think you're that weird, David..."

[Xain903]

"Huh, I think that's just cause you like being around me." He smirked a bit before shoving his hands into his pockets again as he let Dai stand on his own. "Relax kid, I was just joking." He then walked with Dai until they made it to his room, casually David opened the door and looked back at the boy, his golden eyes almost radiating as he looked into Dai's eyes. "Wanna go inside kid?" He didn't know why but he almost wanted to hug the boy again, he was small and fragile and he thought maybe it would make Dai feel better to have someone hold him. Of course being the stubborn guy he was David refused the thoughts, pushing them away as he stepped into the boys room.

Celia could sense the twins were apprehensive about her invitation but she smiled at Josie's response. Josie and Jarrett were an interesting case and she loved all the time she could get with them. They were incredibly co-dependent and incredibly quiet. She urged Dr. Elder not to separate them when they arrived at the Institution. They were too fragile for that and too prone to self-harm. She wanted them to be as comfortable as possible, hoping they would eventually open up and work with her.

She showed them into her office and gestured towards both the comfy chairs and the small couch, "Make yourselves comfortable." She headed into her room and put on the teapot. Waiting for the water to heat, poked her head into the office and asked, "How many marshmallows would you each like?"

[Shiftipher]

Dai smiled softly, shyly looking up at David while twiddling his thumbs a bit.

"M-Maybe... D-Do you like being around me, David?"

Dai tilted his head a bit as they walked into his room. He really hoped David enjoyed Dai's quiet company as much as Dai enjoyed David's. The spindly sat on the bed once again, poking his index fingers together while slowly sinking into posture one.

Unexpected Visit

Oh, no marshmallows for me, Dr. Elder stood in the doorway of Dr. James' office. He had the same wicked smile on his face as he always did. He still had his hands behind his back when he stepped into the room and looked around.
It has been quite sometime since I've been in here, hasn't it, Celia? He walked over to her desk and picked up a little trinket she had sitting on it. He could care less about the trinket in hand, he just wanted to find something to do. I assume your trip went well? Seeing as you're back in your office about.. He picked up his wrist and looked at his watch. The watch had been broken for years, but Elder still held on to it, and somehow always knew the time.
A day early? Dr. James?

He noticed the twins sitting in the chairs across the room. Ooh. If it isn't the twins! He walked over towards the twins and stood in between them. What an unexpected surprise.. Of course, this was a lie. He knew they were here. He had planned on this..

Caught

Francis had been watching the patients file out of the cafeteria, one by one. A patient caught his eye. It was the troublesome, Alucard.. Francis knew something was up. He had the hungry look in his eyes.
He stayed as far away as possible as he watched Alucard from a distance. He followed his gaze towards another Orderly. In pocket, was a pack of cigarettes. Dammit, Jonesy! He thought to himself. You know the rules..

He watched as the kid executed his plans, without flaw. Cheeky kid..
S- sorry sir.. Won't happen again, sir.. The kid knew what he was doing. He watched him walk away with the triumphant smile on his face. Francis put his on as well. The kid, indeed, know what he was doing.. Unlucky for him.. so did Francis.

"I don't mind being around you, you're easy to talk to and you don't ask questions about them." After he said this the male turned to the boy and smiled speaking up. "Anyway lets not bother talking about something like that, it's boring." He then sat down against the wall as he leaned back and closed his eyes. "Besides I'm not gonna tell you anything about myself unless you tell me your past first, it's only fair since I'm the one who does all the talking."
