Connor didn't bother to tell her that the only way he would stop worry about her was if he was dead, or if she was. As the sprinklers went off, he looked up. Smoke? Or had someone let it off? 

Even though it was perhaps too late, given that they were both wet, he shrugged off his jacket, and made a makeshift umbrella out of it with his arms and easily matching his stride with Kijani's, so they could both be under it.

Kijani smiled wanly, leaning against Connor. He was offering help, even though it was completely useless. But then, that was Connor, putting his valuable energy into things that were too broken to fix, and lost causes.

Hopefully one day he would rectify that before he really got hurt.

"Never a dull day in this place. Heh." Her tone was sarcastic and dry, unlike her shoes which were becoming squishy.
