[ it must be toi, he thinks, because who else would bother coming here?
the door cracks open by an inch. zenitsu lifts his head enough to make out toi's chin before opening the door some more. while everyone else has been working hard, he's been crying himself hoarse and his eyes are incredibly puffy. ]
since toi has changed clothes and the majority of his injuries aren't visible, the only thing zenitsu will really see is that there's now a bandage over his left eye. he's also walking with a limp (he really shouldn't be walking) but. that's noticeable right now. ]
[ even with his head lowered, he can see the parts of the bandage that wrap around toi's face. but it takes a moment for his grieving mind to register what he's seeing.
before he fled the scene earlier, he saw the blood. there was so much of it. ]
[ there's a pause before he slips a hand into his pocket and pulls out the key to the room. he holds it out to toi, who's free to roam until it's time for curfew. zenitsu's not leaving the room today. ]
[ turn in one (1) key and receive a bed in return. toi's injured, so he can use it. zenitsu can't bear the thought of its being empty through the night. ]

week 3, thursday
toi spent most of the time since coming back in his actual room, but he knows that he is going to have to talk to one person in particular.
so that's why he slowly hobbles himself over to zenitsu's and knocks. ]

Sorry.
[ for asking the obvious. for being so weak that he couldn't even be there. ]
If you need someone to spend the night with, you can stay here. You don't have to.
