Lang paused. Right, Owen thinks Lang's an apprentice. "Uh," He says smartly, "Well, that hospital is dangerous, and I was afraid you would mistake me for a hunter." Except I am, he adds in his head.

Owen almost held his breath at the mention of the hospital again, but calmed down once Lang explained himself. "You're not a hunter... you're not a hunter..." he muttered to himself over and over again. "Don't go near hunters..!" he looked worriedly at Lang, not wanting to ask why he'd been hanging out around the hospital grounds anyway. "Y-You know about the hunters..?"

Whoops, another slip up. Lang gulped and nodded quickly, not trusting himself to say more. Clement would probably murder him if he let any more secrets slip, although it was strange that Owen knew about the hospital in the first place.

Owen looked horrified as Lang nodded. "H-He knows about you too..." His face started to calm down but he was still in an agitated state. "He's tidy scary... So much is scary..."

Lang gripped Owen's hand tighter, even reaching out for the other one. "It's okay, we're not in the hospital anymore," He tried again, soothingly. "The scary people aren't going to come after you, it's fine..."

Owen just gripped Lang's hands in his own and nodded. He breathed deeply, trying to calm himself down. "Not anymore, not anymore..." He muttered over and over to himself.

Lang didn't have anything else to say, but he just grips Owen's hands tighter, continues leading them away from the hospital. He spots a park up ahead, remembering how serene Owen looked the first time they met. Maybe this would help some more.
Lang looks to Owen, hesitantly. "Do you want to go into the park?"

Owen nods and starts walking faster to the park. He recognised it. It was a safe place, a familiar place... he would be fine there, right? Right... he almost broke into a jog towards there.

Lang followed Owen, and soon they were in the park, and he pulled ahead a little to lead Owen to a bench. The park felt familiar at first sight, and he realized distantly that this was the park where they had first met. Sitting them both down, he asked, "Do you feel better now?"

Owen sat himself down and started to breathe again. It was calming. The birds were few, but it made him feel better. He nodded and looked slightly pained at Lang. He never wanted to go back there. He'd have to be more strict with his teammates about hospital reaps from now on... he didn't want a repeat of today.

Lang watched Owen as he calmed down, and breathed a sigh of relief. "THat's good," Lang said, squeezing Owen's hand again. "I remember how.. difficult reaps can be." The memories are distant now, but he had many traumatizing experiences as an apprentice. All because of Death, he thought bitterly.

"Hospitals..." he breathed. "Are difficult..." he didnt want to go to anymore reaps there, let alone hospitals. "I don't like difficult." he shook his head.

Lang almost forgot what he was trying to do. Right, he should be trying to calm Owen down. "It's okay now, the reap is over," he tries to soothe again. Hopefully Owen would feel better soon. I'm so glad I don't have to reap anymore, he almost says out loud. Actually, he did say that out loud, didn't he. Lang freezes. "Uh, I mean."

What did he mean by that..? "You... don't have to reap anymore..?" Owen's eyes darted around, unsure. It could only mean... "I..." Would it be rude to point it out to him? "I won't tell HQ... Can you tell me why you..." He didn't want to say the word, as if it was taboo.

Watching Owen piece together his words, Lang's thoughts were on a constant loop of: Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no-
"Uh. Yeah, it's been a while. A few centuries, maybe." Lang tried to smile; it didn't really work. "As for the reason, well, that's- complicated."
