Tatsumi sat busily working at his station, and Tsuzuki was off in la-la land as usual. Hisoka was ignoring everyone, doing his work. Watari was completely confused. What the hell had happened? Between break and now, everything had gone back to normal. He puzzled over this for a while, and 003 said in his ear, "Weird." Watari could only agree. He looked around the office for a moment, shrugged, and then went back to his laboratory, where he once again started on his potion that would revolutionize the world.

Tatsumi had secured his mask in place again. How could he ever love anyone, he who hurt those he loved the most? He sighed, and once everyone had left, he packed his papers into his briefcase, and then turned off the lights, then closed the door behind him. When he turned around, he nearly crashed into Hisoka, who was waiting for him outside the door. People were starting to do this all too often to him. He still managed to keep the mask on. "Kurosaki-kun, what brings you here?" He asked, his voice even.

Hisoka looked him in the eye and said, "It's concerning Tsuzuki."

Tatsumi manage to keep an even look with Hisoka, "What is the matter? Is there something wrong with him?" He asked.

"He is worried about you. He keeps on saying that you seem like you're hurting inside. He keeps on saying that there's something he could do about it, but he doesn't know what. He's been rambling like that ever since we got home. Did you do something to him?" Hisoka asked somewhat vehemently.

Tatsumi retained his cool, though only barely. "I did nothing to Tsuzuki. Anyway, why would he think I was hurting? I am quite capable of handling myself," he said, if not somewhat harshly and then began walking towards his room. Hisoka followed him with his eyes, then sighed. Obviously, he could take care of himself, and his suspicions about him and Tsuzuki were false.
