Chain Connection (Closed- Celica)

After...all the mess, both of swirling emotions, feeling horrid that he’d had no choice but to raise his voice to calm the students down and then finding out who was behind all this: not to mention lifting heavy bits of concrete, the ginger teacher felt exceedingly tired. Yet he had something else to try and do: he couldn’t ignore it. He couldn’t...ignore how much Celica was overworking herself, and trying to close everything away.

She could yell at him for butting in, he didn’t mind - anything was preferable to seeing students overwork themselves like he was guilty of doing in past. He knew all it did was make friends worried, and strain yourself. Hopefully, she was in her room at this time, because...he was too tired to check elsewhere.

Despite his nerves, he knocked firmly, more confidently than he felt. Please...let her be there.

Teacher and Student talk (Closed - Suki)

Justin, after running about quite a bit this next morning - was feeling quite tired out. Goodness, that and shifting the heavy rubble yesterday...he wasn't as young as he used to be, though he did have more energy than most. Though, realizing his next birthday was so close and there would be nothing to celebrate in such an awful place made him sigh, softly. Should he just keep it to himself? Or would the students welcome a diversion from all that?

He wasn’t sure, but a strange scraping noise - like something being dragged - outside his closed room door alerted him. W-what was that? Unnerved, despite his tired state, he cautiously made his way to the door. 

“W-who’s there? Hello?!” You can’t blame him for being a little on edge after the trial.

Room Visit (Closed - Totoko)

In all honesty...Justin hadn’t been expecting to be so busy at any point in his life before this (that he could recall): but he was concerned for quite a few of the students: everything had been such a mess he couldn’t help it. Among the top students he was most concerned of, Totoko was one. While he’d never talked to her much, he’d noticed how reliable and trustworthy she seemed in trials.

Yet he also saw how much pressure, last trial, she’d been putting to try and protect everyone. Such a heavy burden was not one anyone should have to carry alone, he knew that much: not to mention those frightening injuries. Goodness sake, he’d been scared for both her and Peacock when it had happened. When someone was recovering, you got flowers to help them feel better: but he didn’t think Totoko would want a reminder of the island. Instead, he sat at the dining room table, carefully making one fold and then another onto his handkerchiefs.

Once he was done, he nodded, and collected them up to take to Totoko. She...should still be recovering in bed, right? Unless he was wrong and she was on the mend faster than thought, but heading out from the dining room seemed a good idea.

Nervous Habit (Closed - Uta)

With the horrid trial and incident aside-  but the horrid scars still fresh on everyone’s mind - Justin was concerned for the one he trusted so much, Uta: Uta had a habit of only truly learning of what happened in trials after, whether it be due to his mind shutting all that happened out or something else, the ginger did not know. Yet knowing this trial had scarred students...there was concern for Uta too.

He needed to check up on him and make sure he was alright - granted, usually that was Uta’s job, to be the stalwart, strong one - he remembered that vaguely enough to trust his gut on that subject. Yet he remembered being the positive force to Uta in foggy images: the least he could do was do the same now, though Justin did question why the door to his room was shut.

“Uta? Are you...sleeping in?” Normally, he just left the door open, but with all that had happened, Justin wouldn’t blame him if he started locking it...
