Chikusa is in the middle of getting up when Ken speaks up, and he pauses, just staring at him. It seems like he might not say anything at all before leaving, but, after a second- “No it’s not.”

And just like that, he shuffles away before an argument can be started up. He doesn’t want to deal with it.

As he goes up the stairs, he manages to observe some of the captured mafiosi starting to stir. Well, he should still have enough time before they snap out of it completely, and he can ignore them if they start up a fuss while he’s tending to Ken. For the time being, he focuses on getting to the kitchen and stepping over bodies as he gathers food and bottles of water. It only takes a few minutes- much faster than when he went to clear everything out- before he’s stepping back into the little medical room. “Don’t drink or eat too fast,” he warns, uncapping a bottle of water and holding it to Ken’s lips as he cradles his partner’s head to help.
