In one of the infirmaries...

When Kaito woke up, he saw only sterile white. The room was that, as featureless and impersonal as any hospital setting he has ever seen. Medical equipment and supplies were around, unused but organized with readiness. Nothing marked him where he was, not even a small window to show him outside.

He was laying in a bed, naked as the day he was born except for the swath of bandages that kept his torso wrapped beneath the flimsy bedsheets. His chest was wrapped tightly, as was his left knee. Thin strips of gauze bandages encircled his neck and collar area, and a long strip went down his inner thigh. Rather, his left arm's old nicks were left untouched, although his left shoulder was nestled nicely within clean bandages too.

Although completely unharmed, his hands holding the top of his sheets trembled.

Unable to find the will to explore this new place, or even the will get out of bed in search of his missing clothes, Kaito just curled up onto his right side. He wept quietly in the empty room.

"...probably not," Conan said and sighed. "Rest now, all right. I'll stick around. Maybe if someone watches you, you won't go. No one's ever 'seen' anyone go before."

"You'd do that?" Kaito had to admit he was a little surprised at the offer. He should be suspicious too, but he was feeling too tired to be.

Conan shrugged. "I never really make plans here. I pop around too much for that, so as long as I don't pop back, it should be fine."

Kaito nodded, smiling tiredly. "I still don't really get this place and how it works, but thanks, Conan." He also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed like the painkillers were finally working.

"...no one really does. I'm just used to it," Conan said. "You should rest now."

The thief nodded briefly, settling back under the covers to make himself comfortable. He was tired, and with the pain floating away, he was ready to get some rest.

"I'll see you when I wake up..."

[only-1-truth.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, you will," Conan said, settling down in a chair.

[damaged-dove.livejournal.com]

"Mmmm. Thanks, Conan..." That murmured, the thief closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Conan watched him drift to sleep before letting out a soft sigh.

"Really do know how to get yourself into trouble," he murmured, mind already racing in possible solutions. There had to be SOMETHING...right?
