Crour was dreaming, he knew he was dreaming because otherwise he would never be able to be around so many people. He sat in a chair, the room completely black, all around him where people he'd never seen, all of them looking up at the ceiling and constantly repeating the few words they had to say. sometimes a person would disappear, while others appeared to take their place. What was strange was that, after what seemed like hours sitting within the babbling masses almost all of them seemed to disappear save for one or two here and there. For a moment even the babbling went silent. Crour reveled in the silence for a moment the sound of sweet nothing being something long thought lost to him.
It was then that this world faded out, replaced instead by the noise of his own breathing and the soft mumble of the few remaining voices. He slowly opened his eyes and began to take in his surroundings slowly. Still in the room, he felt his neck with one hand, no bite marks, he looked around for a moment before stretching. He hadn't slept that well in a very long while, he'd have to thank Erika again. ' Right! This is her room' He thought and quickly scanned the room for her, his eyes now focused.

By the time Crour woke up, Erika was returned nearly to her original state that she had been in when he fell asleep. The difference now, was that she had a towel wrapped around her hair like a turban. The salt from the sea water had almost driven her insane with the itch it left on her scalp. She had settled for quickly washing it in the skin while Crour had been asleep so that if she heard or saw anything out of the ordinary she could react much faster. On top of that, she had made the surrounding area amplify any vibrations that came close to her room, like a spider's web system. It had proved to be very distracting, having Erika on edge more than once. Everything had went smoothly though, no vampires had broken in or even tried.
It took a few moments for Erika to realize that Crour had stirred, caught up in the half way climax of her book. Her face looked quite serious as she read through the situation, her eyes focused on the world in her hands. Crour's shuffling made her jump, the sound or it louder to her than it really was. She dropped her sound powers quickly and looked over her book. "Ah, you're awake." she said closing the book only after carefully marking her page. She left it to one side and sat up a little straighter. "You sleep ok?" she asked, there hadnt seemed to be any sign of things such as nightmares. Crour had been quiet and still throughout his sleep.

Crour smiled slightly when Erika addressed him, " Yes i slept quite well, probably the most restful sleep i've had in a few years", He chuckled lightly. Crour looked to his side and the ice chair he slept on reconfigured itself into a thin snake and made its way into the kitchen and proceeded to curl up in the sink before melting, with that simple action any trace of Crour's having been here disappeared. Crour took a slight bow facing Erika, " Thank you again", he then said from his bowing position before standing upright and taking a thinking position, trying to figure out where he'd go from here.

"Glad to hear." Erika said leaving her book out of her hands and onto the bedside table, watching curiously as the ice snake slithered off. She shook her head with amazement before looking back up at Crour. The bow surprised her. She had never been treated with such formality, or gratitude. "Heh." a small smile twitched onto her face. "Dont mention it. You've been through a lot." she said scratching the back of her head and glancing off to one side. She tilted her head as Crour seemed to be lost in thought. "Whats on your mind?" she asked. "If its ok to ask." What was he going to do from now on. Her magenta eyes were focused on him. Was he going to go after that Ketsueki, keep running from her, deprive himself of decent sleep for god knows how long?

" Um, Its fine to ask, I was just trying to figure out what it is i'm going to do, i mean i can't very well go to the classes here, I have a bank card with a fair amount of money on it, but even then.... Not really sure what it is i can do from here, If i stay here I'll eventually get caught by ketsueki, But if i leave then i have no place to go again..", Crour's response trailed off as he went back to his thinking pose, scratching the back of his head in confusion as he weighed the different options. He sighed heavily after a few moments, " For now though I think i want to get something to eat, Would you like to come with?", He then asked hoping to keep the company of one of the few friends he'd managed to make on the island, Well few would be a lie, Only would be significantly more true.

Erika listened as Crour weighed his. She fidgeted with her skeletal mask, pulling it up over her mouth, but not letting it settle. From what he was saying, Crour was in a tight fix. Damned if you do, damned if you dont kinda fix huh? she thought to herself. Erika was still half thinking about what he could do when Crour spoke. She let the mask drop down to back around her neck. "Sure." she said with a smile getting to her feet. Crour would no doubt figure out what was best for him. "The Cafeteria does the best chocolate parfaits ive ever tasted." she said pulling the towel from her hair and ran a hand through it to fix it up.
