(Sorry for the delay, but I'm back now.)

(I shall create a new thread shortly.)

Jack had been up long before everyone else, although when he finally poked his head outside, every one else had been woken up. He had been spending time in Apocrypha again, and he hoped that no one recognized how tired he actually was. He had woken up in the middle of the night, and had spent much more time in the endless library then was deemed 'healthy'. Still, it was his only true refuge these days, the only place where he could escape from his troubles.

Claudius looked up as Jack made his first appearance of the day, and although the man looked extremely tired, he decided not to ask and sipped his tea in silence. Jack quietly stepped over to the counter and purchased something to eat, taking a seat at the table and ate in silence, paying little heed to those around him. He would talk in a moment, once he had truly woken up and would be able to maintain the illusion of someone who had slept well.

Makoru, in contrast, was staring up at the ceiling in silence, feeling restless. He had not slept well, as nightmares had begun to plague him once more. He had woken up in a cold sweat earlier in the night and had been unable to sleep again in fear of accidentally rousing Torene from her sleep, which he knew she needed. He had been stabbed quite a few times in his career, and he knew firsthand that it was not best to rouse an injured person from a deep sleep, as they would likely not be pleased at being awoke from their slumber.
