[Diarmuid would have liked to immediately return to where he stopped searching, but with his injury hurting him even more now than when he stopped, he knows he can't do that. Too many floors on the upper levels are dangerous or require a lot of effort to search. Not good when he is in so much pain.
However, maybe if he checks out a few of the less dangerous floors of the Tower first, his muscles might get the chance to relax in a way they didn't in the sauna. He can start on floor one and just work his way up instead of working his way down as before.
It is as he searches the cabinets of the cafeteria that a thought strikes him.
Reno's wedding had been in the meadow, hadn't it? Diarmuid, still new to the Tower and worried about his own bad luck with weddings hadn't gone even though he had thought about volunteering to be a guard, but his brother had. Could Reno's heart be there?
He quickly finishes searching the cafeteria just in case one of his other friends' bears are there and then makes his way as quickly as he can to the meadow. It takes a while...there is a lot of grass and flowers to look through, and then he finds the bear...laying in the sun as if it is sunning itself lazily.
Somehow it's fitting...
It's almost two hours later when Diarmuid returns to the sauna, the slightly twitching form of the bear with Reno's heart in his hands. It's not the bear itself that is moving, but something inside. Since he's not exactly sure what he has to do to fix Reno, he hasn't tried to free what is inside, though he has a feeling he will need to at some point. However, that will come later once he is sure the man is still in the sauna to begin with.]
