Day 2

The night had been quick to cool down in weather; a factor that definitely played into the sun being blocked out by all that water above their heads... Somewhere around mid morning though, Tsukino was sure the temperature had dropped to somewhere at least near fall-like weather; And because of the flexibility in supplies, blankets and other warming materials had been passed out to those who needed it most--young children, the elderly, the sick--so those of Tsukino's generation and the young adults unanimously conceded in silence to the decree put out.  She sat huddled next to her small partner, being awoken at some point when his body began trembling incessantly in cold and gave a small sigh. She wasn't particularly freezing herself, but she didn't have many layers to offer... Ah well, she was used to jogging in the chilly morning with just her spring gym uniform on, she could tough it out! Taking off her pink cardigan, she pulled it over Reizuki like a small sheet and pet his hair gently for good measure. He was a good person, and she could see past his rough exterior to know that much. Ichiro's death had startled him something badly, and even if Tsukino had been effected in the same, she wouldn't dare show weakness when the other needed a firm support. She didn't mind. Sooner or later, Reizuki's shaking stopped and Tsukino was graced back into a light sleep. She hugged her arms closely for warmth, curling in tighter to retain her own body heat; It wasn't very comfortable to begin with, but it's not like this was permanent... She awoke a few hours later, Reizuki still conked out beside her and stretched silently with a big yawn. Her body still craved more rest, but to beat the line for breakfast before it got too out of hand, she'd better get up now while the hours were still early. Again, there wasn't much to take--some bread rolls and milk cartons--barely enough for all of the people here. It was heartbreaking to think about, everyone had different circumstances and problems, and already several groups were muttering among themselves, considering disconcerting the worse off for their own benefits... It only settled poorly with Tsukino as she quietly made her way back. Sitting back down beside her partner, he began to stir around, placing their breakfast on the floor between them. He looked really cute, all groggy like that, but she held her tongue. "Good morning.. are you feeling any better, Reizuki-kun? I got us breakfast if you're hungry."
