They moved into the larger hall, and Mikado looked to her for direction as he fell back to the previous subject. "Particles being different in both worlds....

Tear gave consideration when they reached the larger hall. There existed no doubt in her mind that Mikado was a civilian. He carried himself as one and more importantly, more or less made it known he was as 'regular' as a human could be, regardless of their individual origins.

"Don't worry about paying me back," she said not unkindly. After a brief feel for their surroundings, the Melodist gestured toward the direction of the chapel. "The chapel you met Major Harrington in--I need to conduct an investigation there on behalf of the paramedic group. Would you be willing to join me? If not--" She looked down the corridor, closer to the other end of the institute. "--I can escort you back downstairs."
