10. for shame deny that thou bear'st love to any

Characters: [OU] England ([personal profile] keepscalm) and [OU] Zelda ([personal profile] sageprincess), closed.
Setting: Men's bathroom, backdated to June 3
Format: Action I think?
Summary: England did a phenomenally dumb thing and now he has to tell Zelda about it.
Warnings: Discussion of nation angst, character death (of a somewhat suicidal nature), body horror, and normal nasty Tower fare.

[Losing his retrieval unit was a bit of a task after the kind of trouble he got himself into. It took hours of careful manoeuvring before he could steal away into the bathroom without the soulless eyes of his stalker tracking him. He really considered not bothering with the whole charade, seeing as his escapade into the lower floors wasn't exactly a secret from the administrators; they had to revive him, after all. But, he didn't think Zelda would appreciate being eavesdropped on.

So, here he waits. He stands in front of one of the sinks and occasionally runs the water under the guise of washing his hands when people come in and out. In his head, he turns over what he's going to tell Zelda. He doesn't have a problem sharing most of it. The lobby, the bodies, the papers he took from the desk; that's all easy.

The hard part is going to come when he has to tell her the consequences of leaving the Tower, and how he knows about them. He's fairly certain she won't be happy about his recklessness.]
