1x1 Rp w/ Ai! (NVM THEY ALIVE)

Hitashi remained looking at the ground as he answered, not wanting to fuck up any more than he already had. "Just one of the staff members." He responded, digging his nails in deeper to his wrist. It could've just been his imagination, but it seemed to him like Grim might've actually been scared by the sudden sound. "Sorry about that. I just got spooked." He muttered, sounding somewhat unsure.
Hitashi noticed that Grim wasn't standing at his full height, and it might've actually been funny had he not felt like shit at the time. As he stood there awaiting Grim's response, he tried to decide whether or not he should be wary of the other. He still had no idea if the personality he'd had the night they met was real, or if it was just a part of his facade. Hitashi didn't want to take any chances, so he chose to simply remain formal. At least until there was some indication that slight informality was alright.

Eh, same here- I have an appt in a bit, so yeeeah :/ ))

He wasn't surprised by the staff prying, it still made him feel wrath. They were all naturally curious but that didn't give them an excuse to be breathing down Hitashi's neck. Being watched easily caused paranoia. "Don't worry, I'll deal with it." He tried to calmly reassure him, clenching his jaw subtly from the anger. Outwardly showing negative emotion would only sour his reputation even more, he didn't want to concern Hitashi with revealing his aggression.
"You looked a little lost earlier, are you trying to find something?" Grim asked. The way the short man behaved around him had obviously changed their first meeting, Grim was aware of that. He assumed it was because of his true identity coming to light. He knew it would've been best for the knowledge to remain unknown. It would have to be addressed sooner of later.

I have one later today too, hope all is well ! ))

Hitashi was slightly confused when Grim said he'd deal with it, but he wasn't going to ask questions. He saw the other clench his jaw, and he worried he might've done something to anger him. "How have you already managed to piss him off? You haven't even been here a full day. Well hot damn. That's gotta be a new record." He thought to himself, blinking slowly due to the pain in his head.
He didn't know that Grim had been watching him, but it's not like he was too bothered by it at this point. "I was instructed to go to the dining hall, but I'm not really sure where that is." He sighed, sounding slightly annoyed. When he caught his tone of voice, he immediately forced himself to become neutral again. Grim didn't need to know he was irritated, and it was irresponsible to show such aggressive emotions in front of employers.
He stood there for a few moments, trying desperately to get himself to focus, but it was no use. He dug into his wrist harder, but he accidentally pressed too hard and broke through the skin. He cursed under his breath, but tried not to react any further. He could feel the blood dripping down his wrist, but all he could do was ignore it.

Coincidence? XD
Good luck! Hope all goes well! ))

Grim saw a chance to interact more with the other man and took it with little second thoughts. "Mm. I'm on my way there now, I can guide you." He was glad that offering his assistance had come up so naturally, the short walk there wouldn't be so miserable. Grim enjoyed having a home, but it wasn't the most delightful place in the world, it was quite different to the interiuof the king's castle that had polished marble white flooring and gold accents everywhere. His abode was well kept, but not excessively.
He took a slow step away from Hitashi, body still facing him as he awaited to he followed. He wouldn't simply walk off and leave him behind, it could come off as rude and cold.

Ngl, I lowkey don't remember what it's for lmao ))

Hitashi was a little confused, and slightly panicked. He'd been expecting Grim to go ahead in front of him, as many nobles are trained to do with staff, but now that he hadn't, Hitashi wasn't sure what to do. He couldn't turn, otherwise Grim could see his wrist, and he didn't know how he would explain that. He stood there awkwardly for a few more moments before following after Grim, keeping himself faced at an awkward angle so that his hands were out of sight.
As they walked, he made sure to keep at least two steps behind Grim at all times. He normally would've admired the markings and engravings in wall, but he had too many other things to worry about to do that right now. He was still trying to hide his hands, which was becoming increasingly difficult due to the blood dripping down his wrist.

Oof- Mine's to check what's up with my vertigo XD ))

Whenever Hitashi's presence felt further away, he'd slow or take a subtly glance back over his shoulder. He did it only a few times. 'What have I done this time?' He kept asking himself in his head, a familiar question since in the eyes of the king and the people he was always at fault for something. Looking to Hitashi once again, his gaze linger to try examining him and find the answer in the other man. Instead his red eyes caught something of a similar colour on the flood. The hallways were dimly lit in the light, so he wasn't sure if his eyes were playing tricks on him.
"Ah, pardon me for a moment." He said as he took a 180° in his path, walking back past Hitashi to investigate what was on the floor. These floors weren't frequently walked upon by many people and therefore were kept clean. He knelt down and took off one of his black gloves, swiping a finger to gather some of the blood for a closer look.

Turns out it was just a referral thing, but I have to get blood tests and stuff done. I'm not a fan of the pointy things they use to draw blood, I don't like saying the name for them either ))

Hitashi was slightly confused, and immediately shifted the direction he was facing when Grim flipped around. He saw the small drops of blood on the ground, and began to panic a bit. He put his other hand over his wrist to try and stop it from dripping any more, but he knew there was nearly no way out of this. The hallways were fairly dim, so he was silently praying Grim would just think it was his eyes playing tricks on him.
Hitashi kept his eyes fixed on the ground, making sure to keep his hands behind his back. He could hear his heart beating in his chest, and his head was still throbbing. He didn't say anything, worried Grim might figure it out if he did. He just stood there silently, waiting for Grim to stand back up.

Short posttttt-
Also, I call them stabby noodles :> ))
Sorry you've gotta get labs, though. If it's any comfort, some places have a numbing cream you can ask for, or you can find it at most drug stores. ))

Lowkey forgot what specifically I said Grim was wearing. A black shirt and pants ? Or was it white. Dang ))

He looked down the hallway, where they'd just walked from and then to the ceiling. When neither offered him answers, he looked to the direction they had been heading and finally to Hitashi. He knew, but kept his expression the same focused look. He didn't need to stress Hitashi out by expressing his concern. He stood back up and only had to take once or two strides before he was standing in front of the shorter man.
"Where is it?" He asked, holding out an open gloved hand as an incentive for him to show him. Whatever the injury, he didn't have much on him to tend to it. He was still considered undressed, wearing a simple shirt and pants.

I usually take a pill to calm me down. I don't like that it's not going into my shoulder but the inner part of my elbow, you know ? Eck ))

Black pants anddddddddddd a white shirt? ;-; ))

He watched as Grim looked around the area. He thought that the other might have given up, but his heart dropped when Grim came over and asked where it was. He hesitated, not wanting the other to know he'd hurt himself. After a moment, though, he sighed and showed Grim his wrist. "I-I didn't mean to. . I was just trying to get myself to focus." He muttered, still looking at the ground.
He'd been half expecting to be scolded, or hit, but Grim didn't seem like the type to do such things. Even still, he much would have preferred to just ignore it. He pulled his wrist back slightly, trying to ignore how his hands shook. "Let's just go." He pleaded, keeping his head down and his hands by his sides. "You've already pissed him off once. Just shut up and quit causing problems already." He told himself, irritated that he'd messed up so many times in one day.

Yeah, I can't swallow pills lol- Injections go in the shoulder, but they do it in your inner elbow for blood draws so that the veins are easiest to hit. It reduces pain by a little too =w= ))

Going with that lol ))

He wasn't sure what to do, he wasn't born or intended to be a healer. However due to him being the opposite of that, he'd taught himself many different things in an attempt and escape certain boxes that he'd been put into. Some of these different things were gardening, animal care and medical care.
His thoughts stumbled for a moment over what to do, putting his other glove back on. He reluctantly unbuttoned his own shirt and manoeuvre one of his arms out of a sleeve so he could tear the fabric. For a man of his build with no obvious muscle, he had strength when needed. With the torn off sleeve, he grabbed Hitashi's arm without a word and began tying it around the area he was bleeding from. It was a makeshift bandage and one that would be temporary. This was his home, a replacement for a torn shirt would be easy to find.
"There, that should.. ahem. Better, for now." Grim became aware of his somewhat exposed state and became embarrassed halfway through his sentence.

Ahhh, okay. Just got to focus on the positives ToT ))
