Zhi lifted her hand in farewell, surprised at the suddenness of his exit. But, then again, she was hungry too. Hungry and . . . given more time then she'd expected. She knew she'd need to study the letters in the book before the next day, but she also knew that time was running out and she had to make quick use of it. Who else did she have left to contact?
It was still light out. Most of her contacts were daytrippers. She'd need to check in on Rurutani, eventually -- from what she'd heard, he'd come to town. But before that, she had to ensure things were properly set up.
She pushed the heels of her hands into her eyes and stood up. She'd get some stuff done, and then she'd come back to study her letters, get a few hours of sleep, and be ready once Chocobo returned. She couldn't help a snort of laughter at the thought -- she enjoyed his company far more then she thought she would've.
The laughter cut off. No. She had to watch for that. It was dangerous to find someone's company enjoyable when you were planning on betraying them.
Mood cooled, she carefully poked her head out the window, looking for anyone who might tail her. Paranoia, at this juncture, was key. She didn't see anyone -- maybe good or bad -- so she perched on the edge of the sill and pulled herself back up to the roof. She was careful, keeping an eye and an ear out on her surroundings like she always did, as she climbed up and out of the reach.
But she was also tired.
Sometimes, tired people make mistakes.
But one way or another, she'd get everything done and be back in the little room before Styrm returned the following day.
