[Is Giyu really the right person to ask? He has about as much of a clue as Rengoku. Maybe that's why he just stands there kind of unsure of which way to proceed. Should he continue or — or — wait! They should have stopped that person? Right? They might have known where they should head to now. So, he forgets showing the flame pillar the gem and heads towards the door.
By the time he looks out there that person is gone. Although, Giyu is sure he hadn't been all that quick? This whole place is confusing. When he turns back to look at Rengoku he shakes his head once to indicate the researcher was gone.]
Should we stay here?
[Once inside, the door is closed behind him once more. Giyu begins to button up. There would be another time for this? But he does run fingers over the stone through his clothes.]
[ as soon as giyu shakes his head, rengoku releases a sigh. it can't be helped then. he doesn't know what made the researcher flee almost immediately but there's no point in wondering about that now. it's not like they'll be getting answers. ]
Isn't it still unsafe out there?
[ he shakes his head, gesturing for giyu to come closer. ]
Let's stay here until the noise stops.
[ neither of them still had any idea of where they should go anyway, if they choose to leave. ]
[It was true, the alarms still rang, yet this room while clearly a place to rest was still strange. This whole place was mysterious as it was odd. It doesn't give him much confidence save for the fact that the sounds were muffled ever slightly by the walls and door. He doesn't get closer. Not right away. After a moment he does take a few steps towards Rengoku but there's still a clear and obvious distance between them.
In getting closer, he agreed to remain within the confines of the room until the noises stopped. Then they would have to make a move. They couldn't possibly stay here forever, he was sure with the way the flame pillar spoke he was aware.]
[ the idea of rest is so far away from what he wants to do right now so he simply shakes his head. of course a part of him is still a bit disoriented; coming back to life is not an easy to wrap your head around, but with his comrade here, he'd rather not be a burden for something he can handle by himself. so he'll remain awake and aware, intent to keep giyu company for as long as they have to be here.
they'll stay in the tiny room until the alarms have stopped. it comes to an end eventually but who knows how much time has passed. whatever the danger was, it has finally passed, and thus it should be alright for both of them to leave. ]
[A sound of acceptance is made. However, he won't insist but...
The truth of the matter is that typically he wouldn't have a reason for concern. This man, as he recalled him, was capable, skilled, and highly regarded, for the most part he voiced the suggestion from a practical sense. They both did not need to keep watch, rest didn't seem like a bad suggestion, despite the high degree of stamina they possessed there was also a need to factor in time. Neither of them knew how long they would be left waiting before they could freely evacuate the room.
As for Rengoku, that was a different matter. Something he isn't sure of how to handle. Perhaps, he might never be able to because he still can't shake the recollection of him being dead.
It's not something he can just dismiss in a single day, the span of a few hours, actually it hadn't been long since they met, but if they both had similar experiences before their arrival here then he has to question how it affected him. That would explain why through the wait, Giyu doesn't divert his gaze and only observes the flame pillar, and only when the alarms cease does he turn away.]
Lets go. [It was the moment they waited for. Once again the door would be opened, he would peer out before stepping into the hall.] It's clear.
[ the flame pillar can tell that something is different—or rather, something has changed when it comes to how giyu regards him. there are only so few explanations as to why this might be the case, but he doesn't want to be the one to bring them up. he doesn't breathe a single word until giyu tells him that the coast is clear.
nodding, he leaves the bed behind and heads over to the door. whatever chaos that had descended upon this place has now been quelled so it's time for them to find answers. ]
Then let's head out.
[ with a new goal in mind, it's time to find someone worth asking the right questions to. it's not long before they stumble upon a crowd that quickly creates a barrier between them. they're separated before rengoku realizes, so by the time he turns around— ]
[Quick steps leads them away from their small sanctuary, in search for answers they find instead a mass of people all in a panic. The crowd seems to be rushing, surging, towards one direction, perhaps they too were seeking guidance? It's just a sea of people, anyone could get easily swept in the chaos. It's why Giyu halts in order to avoid being swept in. With a quick glance to his left, it's then he notices that Rengoku is no longer at his side.
He hears his name called, on the other side of the crowd he sees the flame pillar, bright in all senses he is easy to pick out. He stands there a moment, while he could push his way past all these people he won't. It's not discomfort that impedes him, he wants to avoid causing anyone unnecessary harm.
Other options are explored but quickly dismissed. Things like jumping over, but a low ceiling prevents this nor would it be feasible for them to try to find an opening, they were wasting time. Someone had to come to a decision that would allow them to move forward, perhaps even help anyone in need. With that in mind he had to speak up.
Taking a breath, effort is put into raising his voice so he is heard.]
Lets help where we can. Find an exit. We'll meet outside.

If you wish to rest, go ahead, I'll keep watch.
