Joshua simply nodded at her realization. Once she spouted something about wanting to help with dinner, it made Joshua instinctively look at his watch. Hm, she was right. Dinner was closing in and so was that meeting with Doctor Greene. However, she stopped near the door as if reluctant to go out and help. He cocked his head slightly to the side, pondering why she had stopped in the first place. She looked like she wanted to hurry up there. He didn't question her reasons for wanting to hurry there though. While the kitchen staff would be enough, help from others were appreciated and it does have its merits.

[color=0072bc]"I wasn't."[/color] He replied before walking towards the door to exit, [color=0072bc]"But thanks to the meeting, I am now."[/color] The guards, while many, aren't really all that motivated to work. With the head guards inside the meeting, some were sure to slack off. But of course, some are stiff and unmoving until their shift has ended. Statues that remain looking after the patients. Then there were the other guards who relax when not in the hawk eyes of their superiors. Then there were guards like Joshua who look like they're slacking off but is doing their job quite well.

[color=0072bc]"Are you going or not? Because I definitely am."[/color] Joshua said. Ichi had already made his way out of the door and is patiently waiting for his master to exit with him so they could walk towards the dining room.
