       So the attempt to lie didn't work, and the man had known that
       Usegi was the one that saved his life. This was bad. Ling was
       going to kill him for being careless. He could almost hear her
       scolding him the moment he'd enter the magic shop. He was not
       looking forward to that later on. In the meantime, Usegi had to
       deal with being stuck in an empty office with his teacher. Not
       only that, the man had complimented as well as thanked him for
       saving his life. The blonde wasn't expecting this at all
       considering the man was always so strict with everyone he spoke
       too. The look on his face showed just how surprised he was by
       this as he turned to face the man while pointing at him. "Are
       ... are you being nice to me?" he asked.

       Sousuke smiles slightly at Usegi "Well to be fair it isn't
       currently school time, and is it wrong to be nice towards those
       you owe your life to some extent to, I am not strict with
       students without reason it is to help you and the others better
       yourselves," he says being quite frank with the matter though he
       wasn't being as overt and oppressive as he normally would be.
       Sousuke could see the situation they where in was precarious and
       didn't want to add problems to compound on things. "That power
       of yours seems unreliable currently I was not expecting you to
       fall unconscious from using it, forgive me for the rude
       awakening letting you rest on the desk caused," Sousuke says
       while removing the rag like suit jacket.
       "Though I am impressed, whoever has been helping you study seems
       to have found the right spot to approach it from," Sousuke says
       while fishing out a test paper  that was clearly the boys and
       while the grade was still low it was passing.

       Usegi pouted and gave a look displeasure as Sousuke commented on
       how unreliable his powers were. Not to mention, he also pulled
       out one of Usegi's tests which he didn't want to think about at
       a time like this. Not the best time for schoolwork. 'Nice he
       says. Still feels like he's picking on me despite what he says,'
       Usegi thought with a sigh, lowering his head. "Yeah, I know, my
       powers aren't great. I haven't had them long. I'm still being
       trained to learn how to use them properly. So ... yeah..." He
       decided not to comment on the test score. It was still a low
       score for which his brother stated that he could've done better.
       For now, he put it out of his mind as he sat back down, sighing
       again. "So now you know why I've been sleeping even more during
       your class," he tossed out there.

       Sousuke smiles "Its quite alright, if you put in the work I'm
       sure you will gain the fruits of your labor, as for class as
       long as you pass  it will be fine, not everyone is meant for
       academics as your teacher my only goal is to make sure you get
       somewhere in your life other than dead in a ditch," he says
       clearly understanding what Usegi meant but expected him to do
       even better in the future. Though it was clear Sousuke didn't
       hate Usegi he was hard on him because he wanted him to have a
       bright future. Leaning back with his eyes close  the normally
       prim and proper Sousuke looking like a tired old man. "To be
       fully blunt you sleeping in class isn't the problem, I do work
       with students who need additional help or have extenuating
       circumstances, provided we survive this I can make more
       reasonable arrangements," he says while opening his eyes and
       looking directly at Usegi.

       "It's really hard picturing you wanting to help me, and it's a
       little creepy that you're so nice all of a sudden," Usegi
       replied with a sweatdrop. He was probably a tad too honest when
       he said this but he wasn't used to it. It was very odd seeing
       the man smile and have a far more gentle tone in his voice. He
       did seem to care about both of their safety, not just his own.
       It was strange. Usegi wasn't sure how to take this situation
       other than feeling awkward that his least favorite teacher was
       being friendly and offering to help him. "I can't fight right
       now. Gomen," he apologized. He was still tired from using that
       last attack. It was going to take some time for him to recharge
       his strength. Until that time, he was pretty much a sitting
       duck.

       Sousuke shakes his head and sighs softly "Crucify me for being
       strict, crucify me for being nice," he says with a low voice
       before slowly getting to his feet. Looking at Usegi for a moment
       and shakes his head again before speaking "Well, we may be stuck
       here until help arrives or you get back to your peak,  but if
       the worst should happen I can probably buy you time enough to
       escape, you should be much faster than me even like you are
       now." Sousuke looks at the ceiling for a moment, he had
       mentioned the chance of Usegi escaping but rather bluntly left
       out his own survival. Instead of talking fishing around in his
       pocket he takes out a small case of cigarettes and a lighter,
       leaning back into the desks leg while lighting up and taking a
       long drag.
       Sousuke seeing as the conversation had managed to get quite
       awkward, due to his general air of being in a foul mood and his
       quite bad social skills outside teaching. Letting out a breath
       of smoke  and a few coughs the cigarette was left to mostly burn
       away on it own with only a few drags taken from it."Smoking
       cigarettes I confiscated, I'm the worst but fuck it," he thinks
       to himself, while passing the pack and lighter off to Usegi
       having lost most interest in the cigarettes.

       Admittedly, Usegi knew that he was rather unfair towards Sousuke
       due to not being used to him being kind and helpful toward
       anyone he came into contact with. If this was how he truly was,
       then it was something he would have to learn to get used to. No
       matter how strange it was to him. He did protect him in return
       for doing the same for him, though now they were both stuck
       hiding from the youma. He may not have asked for the
       responsibility of being a Knight, but while he had the powers,
       he was going to use them to do some good even if it was to prove
       to himself that he could do something right for once in his
       life.
       Kind of like how Sousuke was showing a side of himself that he
       didn't show around others. Including smoking which Usegi knew
       that the man didn't tolerate students doing on campus. Given the
       circumstances, he couldn't blame him for breaking the rules
       himself, no matter how out of character it was for him. He
       placed his hand in his lap, looking up as his teacher tossed
       away the cigarettes and lighter. He didn't seem to be used to
       smoking or never have smoked before as he'd coughed from taking
       a long drag out of the cigarette he'd lit earlier. He didn't
       know why but he'd begun to feel bad suddenly for always causing
       the man so much trouble.
       Even now, he felt like he was more of a nuisance than he was
       helpful. So he decided at that moment that he wouldn't cause any
       more stress to his teacher. It may not last forever, but it was
       the least he could do for a while. "I'm not going to leave you
       behind just to save myself, Sensei," he replied.

       Sousuke looks over at Usegi "Honestly I don't know what to say
       to that," he says while looking at Usegi giving a halfhearted
       smile. Stretching his legs out while sitting on the floor
       looking to the ceiling relaxing the best he really could given
       the circumstances. Though he might not wish it nor was he likely
       to say anything but he was enjoying Usegi's company to some
       extent. While still overly serious  his usual foul mood didn't
       seem quite as bad when not dwelling on the situation they where
       in. Sousuke  found Usegi pleasant on the eyes at the very least
       even if the conversation was awkward and a bit stiff due to his
       own poor social skills.

       For once, Usegi would like for someone to say they were proud of
       him for something instead of always focusing on his bad habits
       all the time. This superhero thing he was doing wasn't easy. But
       he was putting his time and attention into training hard to
       learn his powers and protect others. He stopped expecting it
       when things such as this became serious. This was because he
       didn't want to see innocent people hurt, especially his friends
       and family who might not understand. Even though he wasn't with
       one of his favorite teachers in the world, at least it wasn't
       unbearable to be around him right now.
       It was kind of nice to see him smile since he never did so.
       Usegi also hoped that he believed him when he told him that he
       wouldn't leave him behind. He wasn't going to. It wasn't right.
       He may not be great at using his powers just yet, but despite
       his lack of experience, he was going to fight regardless of it.
       The boy was scared; he wasn't going to lie about that, and his
       teacher probably was too. He had to keep his optimism up and
       believe they were going to get out of here without getting
       killed. He just wished there was a faster way to recharge his
       powers, but he hadn't gotten that far in his training with Ling
       yet.
       They were currently two awkward sitting ducks for now. However,
       there was something about Sousuke. Since they were alone, Usegi
       figured if it was the best time to ask. "Sensei, can I ask you
       something?"

       Sousuke calmly looks at Usegi "You can ask me anything that is
       on your mind, I will do my best to answer within reason," he
       says a bit  surprised at the sudden notion of Usegi wanting to
       ask him things. While most might not take the notion of wanting
       to ask a question seriously and either agree offhandedly or
       object without any reason, Sousuke was all ears as bad as his
       social skills where, listening to others was something he
       excelled at and was part of the reason behind his success.
       With a slight groan Sousuke stretches slightly, his complexion
       hadn't recovered any  and while Sousuke was hard to read in
       general it was clear that the current Sousuke was putting on a
       brave face though his tone and face didn't seem to show it.
       While the notion of romance or love would normally be lost on
       Sousuke, something had stirred in his normally closed off heart
       towards the boy.
