[Glitter? Really? Well, that's one way to identify a culprit, should they be foolish enough to step into the infirmary. Char can't fault Solomon's logic, but he can certainly laugh at him.
He doesn't sit just yet, leaned against the wall opposite the door, working his blazer loose one button at a time. The garment is folded with meticulous care and set aside. His sleeves roll to the elbow, though the helmet and mask remain firmly in place.]
Better than flailing in the dark against an unseen assailant. That said, after last week... neither of us has the wherewithal to mount much of a defense if trouble comes knocking.
[Now he laughs in earnest, the vulgar peals of his mean streak echoing off the infirmary walls.]
I never said I'd offer you my protection. It's every man for themselves here, isn't it? Besides, I can't imagine you crawling on hands and knees to me begging for protection after what happened last time.
[Solomon is stubborn. Strong. If he hadn't been nerfed by this place, he'd be a fearsome opponent. But here, they are only men. No powers, no magic, no instinctive understanding on sight. A shame, really.
Char produces a small sachet from his pocket, setting it beside him with deliberate care before crossing one leg over the other. His arms fold neatly in his lap, the picture of self-possession.]
Nowβ don't mind me. I intend to make use of this space however I please. Should I become an impediment to you, well... you'll simply have to learn to cope.
He halts in whatever he's looking for, a brow raised in Nishi's direction as he lowers himself cross-legged. Casual, unbothered, across from Nishi's sudden burst of confidence.]
...If you wish to do something reckless, then I'm sure I'm in no position to tell you no.
[He just sighs as he watches it happen. This is going to be a long hour...]
More that I'm aware what happened the last time we were locked away like this, and wouldn't want to be testing something that could alter my perceptions.
His head leans up against the wall of closed beds, staring towards the ceiling.]
Because I have other things to keep in mind here than just chasing down a single man for a wrong done. I've put up with stranger and far more dangerous things.
[Honest, genuine question! It takes abnormal to know abnormal, and what Solomon is so eager to write off is not at all normal. But also... how dare he not have any lingering sentiments over what Char did to him? Don't forget about him?!?]

[The empty jar is pocketed as he stretches his arms overtop his head with a hum.]
I'd say that you'll manage fine enough. Give yourself more credit.
no subject
And you, Solomon? Don't tell me you'll need defending.
[Does he expect that Char would expend that mind of energy for him, if push came to shove?]
no subject
[His face is still marred from the beating he got. Ironic, asking something like that when the man knows he can beat Solomon senseless.]

[He rolls his eyes a little, before making his way back over to his original spot next to the floor, rummaging through his jacket.]
Worry about yourself, Danya. I will manage.

But I don't see why you would want to.

[No, no. This is a controlled environmentβ locked doors, sealed windows. It's just Char, Solomon, and the drug he's brought along for the ride.
He lazily frees a hand, teasing along the paper wrapping without breaking it open.]
Not that it really matters, but tell me: why should I think twice, Solomon?
cw: drug discussion/drug use
This seems so strange. Such a mood swing, yet again, from the panicked Nishi at the graves, from the furious Danya at his throat.]
It depends.
What do you intend to do with that?
cw: drug discussion/drug use
I intend to take it, obviously. There's enough to spare for two if you care to join me.
cw: drug discussion/drug use
As much as I love a little bit of curiosity, this hardly seems the time or place.
Do you even know what it is you have?
cw: drug discussion/drug use
Are you really a stickler for the rules? I didn't take you for such a prude. But if you won't join me, suit yourself.
[Char deliberately ignores Solomon's question and tears into the packet, placing a tab of something on his tongue.]
You love sticking your nose in other people's business, so try not to complain too much. I'm conducting valuable research.

What if you were to be attacked in such a state?
cw: drug discussion/drug use
Well then, isn't it good I've got you to keep watch for me? If I were to be attacked in such a state, I could reasonably point to you as the culprit.
cw: drug discussion/drug use
cw: drug discussion/drug use
cw: drug discussion/drug use
I only meant, what reason would I have to attack you?
cw: drug discussion/drug use
[lmaoooooo]
But I wouldn't, if I were you.
cw: drug discussion/drug use
If anything, I'm concerned about what in the world you've even been getting up to.
cw: drug discussion/drug use
Concerned for your own sake? That would make sense, but if you're that leery of me, why haven't you done something about it?
[Like try to kill him, or at the least, make him a less credible threat through some other means?]

Are you mentally ill, Solomon?

bursts into laughter.]
Ahahah -- who knows! Someone probably thinks so.
[
ive been saving those the whole game im glad they're being used on char]
cw: drug discussion/drug use
[what the fuck is solomon.....................]
Besides, you've just proved my earlier point. You aren't inclined to hurt me, therefore, you won't let harm come to me either.
[Even if it's self-inflicted.]
