Recovery (open)

"Thank you Kain, my friend, for allowing me to stay home..." Oblivion said as he bowed, turned and moved to exit the room. His eyes caught Minako's again, and gave her a warm smile for her support. With eyes faced forward did he exit the office, but he didnt quite leave the HQ yet. He waited, leaning against the wall beside opening of the office waiting for the others to exit.

He wanted to speak to this.. Minako. She seemed to show some interest in Oblivion. He would have to figure out what. Fate plays weird tricks on people, even making Oblivion think that she looked like her wife. After a moment of shock he realized that their eyes were strikingly similar if not exactly alike. How curious.

"Sir! Yes sir!"
Said Huntson with a salute before he turned around and left the office. Walking pass Oblivion on the way back to the shelter with a smile and a small nod.
"Welcome back to Kari, Doctor."
Tipping his hat to him as he made his way back down to the lobby of the building and out the door.

Minako followed the others out, watching Huntson go on his way prior to turning her attention back to the man of the hour. "I'm glad to see that went well." the blonde stated with another smile as she stood next to Oblivion. "So, what will you do now?"

[Cloud]

"I have nowhere to stay... and I have no money. The only place I know I can stay without being bothered is the intact ruin of my superweapon." Oblivion said with a false smile. He despised the superweapon for what it has brought him, but what other choice did he have? None. Nil.

"That's terrible." Minako frowned, after coming all this way Oblivion had nothing but that superweapon to show for it. And now he didn't even have that much. Well she couldn't just let him go on as is, not without at least offering some aid. "Surely you could stay at the shelter until you get back on your feet, couldn't you? You could share my room if they're running low on empty."

[Cloud]

"Thank you... you are kind, but I have to set things right with those dead. My wife was already planning to be cremated. She wanted me to spread her ashes out to see, I plan to do that. Also, the view is wonderful during the sunset, which is soon. I know this may sound, strange or eery... but do you want to come with me? I might tear the place down if i'm alone." Oblivion explained and asked. It really was a wonderful view. He almost stopped himself from asking because he knew it would make him look like he was.. "Interested" in her. He was of course, but he really didn't want to show it... it was kind of embarrassing in a way.

Spreading ashes out to sea at his wife's wish, how tragic. And how sweet. A view of the sunset which could only serve to make the ocean even more beautiful. It was starting to sound very romantic. When he asked if she wanted to come Minako felt her face turn red slightly. How strange. She hasn't blushed at all when she offered to share a room with him at the shelter but now when the roles were reversed she was? Minako would never understand her body at times. Smiling she nodded towards the man in reply. "I'd love to."

[Cloud]

"Then we must go. We can walk there from here. Follow me." Oblivion said as he slowly made his way out of the HQ. He moved slowly so she could keep up. Once outside she waited for her. When she came he began his stroll down to the weapon. However the thought of visiting the weapon sent chills down his spine. Deep down he was not ready for what lay ahead.
