Day 29: Sun Room
Finally.
Brunch was over, he had eaten his fill, and now he was free from all the others so he could have his moments alone. Okita had never realized how much he missed being alone until he was constantly surrounded by the swimming throng of the Landel's Institute. Having long ago promised himself not to show his weaknesses to any living creature, he'd been bottling everything since the moment he'd arrived.
Now, at last, with no one else in the Sun Room, he could lie down and think. Taking one of the couches furthest from the doors, he positioned himself so as to not aggravate his wounds and stared up at the ceiling. Hijikata was certainly gone. Okita's discussion with Homura earlier had done nothing but show that his doubt was in itself a dishonour to his vice commander. Hijikata had his duty to their cause first and foremost and whatever Okita felt was inconsequential next to that. It was his job to continue searching for information on the Bakumatsu while he was here. That was what he could do. Find information to use against the Choushu and escape with it.
Sighing slightly, he grit his teeth against the pain in his chest and closed his eyes. He wasn't going to nap, but it was easier to keep people away when he seemed like he was sleeping.
[ooc: D: Bug him? He shouldn't emo for too long or he'll explode]
