[Kaliko]

When he didn't recognize her, she didn't get any closer. Instead, she let Kalma handle it.

--

Raven chuckled. "Go to sleep," he replied.

[Rinrou]

Kalma turned, this time everyone quickly got out of the way. She led James off down the hallway and partway down he suddenly began to scream again. Like before, it changed so much it sounded like no one in particular. Kalma grabbed him and suddenly slammed him against the wall, holding him there with surprising strength until he calmed down.

--

Frei smiled slight before turning over.

[Kaliko]

When Kalma took control of the situation, Blaze started back toward infirmary. Yue stuck around for a little while before turning and starting to walk off. But after a few steps she stopped. She stood there for a long time before walking back toward Kalma and James.

--

So Raven left her to sleep.

[Rinrou]

Kalma seemed to finally get James under control by the time Yue started walking over. She raised an eyebrow at her, eyes still expressing some warning. James didn't see Yue, eyes staring at the floor.

[Kaliko]

"... Can he understand anything?" she asked Kalma quietly.

[Rinrou]

Kalma shrugged.

[Kaliko]

So Yue got a little closer. She stopped a few feet away, also looking at the ground before looking up at James. She looked afraid. But not of him. "Tell me," she told James. "Tell me again what Dominic thinks."

[Rinrou]

James's eyes flicked up to Yue and then away again, he seemed to be fighting something within himself. He tried to shy away from her, some of his internal battle showing through onto his face. After a moment Kalma sighed, "I don't think-" and was cut off mid-sentence as James suddenly slammed the back of his head against the wall so hard he knocked himself out. Kalma cussed as she caught him, keeping him from falling to the floor.

[Kaliko]

Yue was a little startled. She seemed partially relieved for a fraction of a second before cussing a little, getting a bit angry.

[Rinrou]

Kalma let James slid to the floor before turning to Yue, "Now that you've knocked him out, help me carry him to his room." she ordered crossly.

[Kaliko]

"He knocked himself out," Yue spat. "Now how the terra am I supposed to-..." But she stopped herself before she said anything more. And before Kalma could ask, she grabbed a hold of James' feet.

[Rinrou]

Kalma shook her head and grabbed James's arm, starting to hoist him up, "Get under the other shoulder and we can drag him between us." she explained, still irritated.

[Kaliko]

Yue didn't say anything as she dropped his feet and grabbed his other arm.

[Rinrou]

Kalma lead Yue into James's room and then into a small offshoot of it. This room had slightly padded walls and no furniture. She motioned Yue to let James settle on the floor before going to get a small medical kit.

[Kaliko]

Yue glanced around, a little of the guilt and anger fading away. This wasn't all that rare if he had a special room. But she frowned, feeling a bit sorry for him. She carefully straightened out his hair so Kalma could get a better look at where he had hit his head. "... He stole my world," she barely whispered in his ear. "It was too much... So I learned to hate him. And now, years later, he did it again. Everything he touches shatters... His life... everything about him... He's a..." but she didn't finish, not wanting to get caught by Kalma talking to James.

--

Nic had been rolling his shoulder a bit, and now he was stretching. It looked like his back was irritating him.

[Rinrou]

Kalma quickly dressed James's bump and motioned for Yue to leave with her. "You shouldn't be in here when he wakes." she told her, "The next stage is anger. You might end up hurt." she added as she walked towards the door.

--

Laurel had noticed awhile ago. She put down his jacket from which she was trying to remove an old stain and sighed. "It's no wonder your back hurts." she informed him tartly, "Can I rub it out for you?"
