For those little captcha occasions, or whatever other random IC stuff I want to do in a journal rather than elsewhere.

... [Leon's reaction does make Chihiro feel a little uncomfortable. It's like the other is trying to hide something from him...] ... is something wrong, Kuwata-kun...?

I suppose so...? [Then he falls silent for a long while before adding.] The door seems to be stuck, Kuwata-kun.

[babermetrics]

Are you kiddin'--

[That's for the question; "is something wrong?" Everything's wrong! He might even have explained that, but he's immediately derailed by the bomb-drop of them being stuck in here. Leon strides over to the door, eyes widening, and yanks on it to try and get it open. All of his care about being quiet in here (or as quiet as he gets, anyway) flies out the window; this is more important than not being found.

And of course, Fujisaki's right.]

--Shit, I didn't think I closed it that hard! You didn't do somethin' to it?! I can't believe this!

[But he's at least less angry, and more just shocked, for the moment.]

[cutestprogrammer]

... I'm not kidding... [And he was referring to his awkwardness not the entire situation as a whole...

He quickly shakes his head at the question!] No, I didn't do anything to it! Maybe the lock's stuck?

[babermetrics]

[He jiggles the knob and pulls on the door. No dice.

There are some vaguely uncomfortable flashbacks happening here, considering. Why the hell'd I have to get stuck in this situation with her outta everything that could've possibly happened? I'm probably just gonna freak her out more! She's like a little mouse . . . Leon lingers for a moment on the Hope's Peak toolkit that he'd found back in his apartment when he'd moved in and refused to look at since. He hates to think about it, but it'd be useful right now--not that it's got its screwdriver anyway.

He really should have known CERES was messing with him the second he found that.

But without anything like that, he's not sure what to do. Leon finally lets go of the door with a sigh and turns around to skim over the boxes they're trapped in here with. It is a storage closet, after all. Maybe there's something in here he can use to break the door down.]

Dammit! What the hell . . . why this? Look, just, I dunno, sit tight or something, or help me look for somethin' to break down the door! Or-- . . . tools, whatever.

[Chihiro just watches Leon quietly for now. He can sense his agitation and doesn't want to set him off again...]

O-Okay... [And he just about to sit down as Leon says when he spots something and tries to tug it out.] Kuwata-kun! I think there's a toolbox here under these boxes!

[babermetrics]

Seriously? Grab it!

[That's kind of weird and all, but Leon's not going to look a gift horse in the mouth here. He wants to talk to Fujisaki and all about what's going on here . . . but this isn't really the place for it, or the place for much of anything else, either. It's just going to get more and more awkward if they're trapped here.

Not that he doesn't feel awkward enough about what's probably about to happen. He bends down to help Fujisaki pull out the box, making a bit of a face.]

[cutestprogrammer]

I-I'm trying...! [He tugs and tugs with all his might, which isn't really much considering how weak he is... He looks over with a little smile when Leon decides to come help him.] Thank you, Kuwata-kun. Ah, I think we've almost got it out!
