Day Fifteen (Day 39/Wednesday)

A tired Leon has a longer chat with Naoto the next morning, followed by a short conversation in the sun room with someone a little more familiar than either of them realizes. Lunch is spent with a particularly unusual patient, and is followed by a return to the sun room where he makes friends with Akihiko. Afterwards, he shares his dinner with a hungry Keman.

At the start of night, Leon once again gives Alchemy a try and it's once again a failure, but he's making progress. After resting for a while, he sets off to meet with Akihiko and his Boxing Club. Upon reaching the room, he simply slumps against the wall and watches the proceedings.

Day Sixteen (Day 40/Thursday)

He meets with Akihiko again the next morning, and they discuss the Institute. At lunch, the topic of other planets comes up with Brainiac 5. Then it's cute times in the greenhouse with Hanatarou. Dinner is uneventful.

Tonight, Leon has his first successful Alchemy attempt, but passes out right after.

Day Seventeen (Day 41/Friday)

Leon joins Claude and Sync for breakfast this morning, which leads to awkwardness (at least for Claude). Showers happen without interruption, and during dinner he asks Keman about some of his sketches.

With no real plans this night, Leon ventures out towards the hall he usually meets people in and isn't disappointed. Haseo's group, drawn by the sight of his sword, end up dragging him along with them to the entry room where they run into Azure Kite. After a bit of fighting, he and Tsukasa are data drained back to a somewhat altered Tsukasa's room.

Day Eighteen (Day 42/Saturday)

The ride to Doyleton is spent with a grumpy vampire. Once there, he runs into Kadaj, who sadly doesn't remember him. The boys he'd met the night before are hanging around the video store and he joins them there, though they end up causing a scene and getting kicked out. He and Haseo then join Kibitoshin for dinner at the Tasty Burger and are still there when night falls.

Shocked by the change brought about when the sun goes down, the three of them rush across the street to the grocer's. There, Haseo helped Suzaku take out a zombie larger than the others while they focused on just not getting bitten. They are soon joined by Endrance and Tsukasa, though the latter's attempt to fend of an onslaught of the undead has Leon draining himself with a deep mist spell before the entire building goes up in flames. Haseo carries him out as they make a run for it.

Day Nineteen (Day 43/Sunday)

Morning finds them back at Landel's, and Leon makes sure to check up on Tsukasa at breakfast. In the sun room, he tries to sneak a peak at Kakashi's romance novel, but is denied. Due to his mun helping with the visitor threads, he doesn't appear again until dinner.

The night is spent making a second sword for Haseo under uneasy circumstances.

Day Eight (Day 32/Wednesday)

Today at breakfast we meet Shito. This is followed by a trip to the sun room which has Leon begging to pet Luxord's cat. :| Denied this, he spends lunch with Gin who manages to talk him out of possession of the sword. The next shift is spent in quiet contemplation (no post) and dinner is just as unexciting.

Once again, Leon starts the night with no plans and once again he runs into Kadaj. His new silver-haired companion not only lets him tag along, but gets him to join the cooking club as well. They are raiding the same area as before, literally racing past Edward to the next hall. They hit up the janitor's closet again, as well as the extra storage. They don't get much further than that before the end of night.

Day Nine (Day 33/Thursday)

This morning's breakfast is full of cuteness as Leon chats with Ken. While nothing happens second shift, lunch is followed by more cuteness with Phibrizzo (if you can call it that). And as his mun is utter fail today, we don't see him again until dinner shift, which involves cake and ice cream with Keman.

Nightshift involves another meet up with Kadaj as they are sent by the cooking club to explore a familiar hall on the second floor. They check the contents of each room in it that they hadn't already visited. Kadaj does get a hold of a file on Jenova, but they don't make it out of the patients possessions storage before night ends.

Day Ten (Day 34/Friday)

A chat with Ashton starts off the day today, followed by mun fail as Leon is then only around for lunch with Claude and dinner with his roomie.

When night comes Leon follows up on plans to meet with Ashton and the leader of the Cooking Club. (Watch as I link with the wrong journal once on accident and never catch it...) With plans to go to the greenhouse, he soon leaves with Ashton and Axel. Unfortunately, they don't get far before morning comes.

Day Eleven (Day 35/Saturday)

Having slept through the last field trip, Leon is apprehensive about this one. The ride into town is spent with Guy, and this gets his mind on other things, though this isn't necessarily better. Forcing himself to be less pessimistic, he meets up with Claude after everyone exits the bus and the two of them head to the bookstore. There they run into Dias and chat briefly before Claude leaves to meet up with Guy himself. The bus ride home was uneventful. As was dinner.

Leon wasn't brought out this nightshift due to mun semi-hiatusing.

Day Twelve (Day 36/Sunday)

This morning, Leon spends some time in the sun room with an interesting woman named Argilla, discovering that not everyone in unhappy to be there. Still pondering this, he has a pleasant chat with Sohma Kagura over brunch. Next shift he finds Shion and confuses her with her sister. Returning to the sun room after that, he finds himself joined by a sedated Kadaj who's upset that his mother isn't visiting him this week as she has before. Over dinner, the subject of visitors comes up again as Keman talks a little about his.

Leon is excited tonight, as he's off to meet with Ed Elric about Alchemy. He arrives a bit early, however, meeting Hughes first. It then becomes apparent that this isn't the best night to work on this.

Day Thirteen (Day 37/Monday)

Morning starts off with further geeking over Alchemy. Unfortunately, he finds out afterwards that Kadaj has gone missing, and it's a more moody Leon that grumbles at Citan over lunch. At dinner, he chats with his drugged roommate.

Once again, Leon heads to Hughes' room come nightfall in the hopes of finding Ed. Thankfully, he's successful, and better yet - the boy is making a sword for Claude, so he'll get to see Alchemy in action. After this, he leaves with Claude, who is off to pick up Guy at the Clinic. The three of them then make their way upstairs in the hopes of finding some useful things in the pharmacy as well as grab some metal. They find some juice for Ed in the lounge.

Day Fourteen (Day 38/Tuesday)

Missing breakfast, Leon literally runs into a depressed shinigami in the library. We don't see him again until dinner, where he's made up his mind to go out on his own that night.

Leon decides to start the night off by picking up metal from the greenhouse. He is stopped by Naoto along the way, and he gives her a short run-down of the place (avoiding a SCed patient) on the way to his destination. They reach the greenhouse without too much incident, and Leon stocks up on metal before they leave again. Wanting to head off on her own, Naoto separates from Leon once they're clear of danger. The young mage then returns to his room, where his first attempt at alchemy ends in a failure. He passes out shortly afterward.

Day One (Day 25/Wednesday)

Leon wakes up with group 2 in the middle of the night. Stepping out into the hall, he finds no one, so he continues to venture further out and soon reaches the recreational field where he meets Xelloss. Both of them are confused about the current situation, and Xelloss decides to play follower for the time being and let Leon call the shots. They reach the door back in to the M41-M80 block hallway, where they run into Guy and Peony. Unknowingly just missing Claude, they then head on to the next hall and from there to the hallway outside the M1-M40 blocks. Figuring there was no better way to go than upwards, they head to the second floor. A small magical disturbance leads them to Yazoo and Rabastan, where Leon once again asks about any info on his friends. Nightshift ends after he finds out they don't know any of them.

Day Two (Day 26/Thursday)

At breakfast, Leon finally manages to locate Ashton and Claude (and Dias as a "bonus"). Afterwards, he spends some time in the game room with Mion. No interaction at lunch shift, but afterwards he takes a quick shower and then rushes off to the game room to chat with Ashton, Claude, Dias, and Cliff.

Alone for dinner, Leon then throws something of a silent fit and stays in his room in the hopes that one of his friends comes to get him. When this doesn't happen, he leaves, a bit miffed but also worried, and tries to find someone on his own. As coincidence would have it, he winds up in the same hall as Ashton's group and rushes to join him, Dias, and Lust. Angry, he lashes out at Ashton, which upsets Dias and starts him off on the wrong foot with the group. Together they go upstairs, just outside the Janitor's closet to look for supplies to be used in Alchemy. Leon, designated as a sort of pack mule, heads into the closet with Lust. Along with some of the supplies they needed, he also manages to get a hold of a tool kit. Just as he'd started questioning Lust about her world's form of Alchemy, they hear a loud cry from Dias outside and Leon hurries back to find that Ashton and Dias had been attacked by a monster. Though Dias had killed it, Ashton had been gravely wounded. Lacking any healing spells, Leon tries a weak spell of Protection which does next to nothing. The shift ends before he and Lust can head for the Pharmacy.

Day Three (Day 27/Friday)

Leon spends breakfast with Lust talking about family, alchemy, and the events of the night before. At Arts & Crafts he catches up with Claude, and the two of them realize they aren't from the same version of their world. It seems none of them are. This leaves both of them with a lot to think about. And it's the highly anticipated meeting of the Leons for lunch, where discussions of magic and science commence. Sadly, that conversation is interrupted as our favorite blue-haired mage is dragged off to the library. Will his discussion with an odd and rather boyish red-head make up for it?

Dinner is once again a lonely thing, but afterwards Leon is off to visit a wheelchair confined Ashton in the swordsman's room. Unfortunately, said person is missing, with only a couple letters from Axel left as explanation. Dias and Claude have reached the room before Leon, and the three of them set off to rescue their friend from experimentation. Through the halls and up the stairs, they are soon joined by Axel and Naminé who have the same goal. But still, rescuing Ashton would prove a more difficult task than expected. They face a Dementor, as well as large rats. After casting a spell successfully (for the most part), the backlash of it leaves Leon unable to do much else. Naminé then drags him out of harm's way, where they remain until the others join them with Ashton. The trip back to M12 is a bit eye opening, and Leon turns to Claude for comfort. After dropping off Ashton, Leon and Claude find themselves intruding on a private moment and leave to check out the Library before the end of nightshift. They avoid Pyramid Head on the way, though they're still majorly freaked by him. Both manage to grab a few books of interest in time.

Day Four (Day 28/Saturday)

Because of his mun's hiatus, Leon slept through the entire day, only waking again once nightshift had started. After waiting a while but seeing and hearing no one, he ventures out cautiously to search for his friends. Finally he begins to see others, and soon runs into Claude who'd been on his way to Dias's room.

The two of them head off to the room in question, but Claude pauses to shamelessly eavesdrop before going inside. Some awkwardness among the group, with Dias highly suspecting that Claude had just been listening in on his conversation with Ashton, has them leaving again, off to find some better equipment for themselves. Unfortunately, while trying to get through the Recreational Field to the shed, they are stopped by Ravi. The scuffle that eventually ensues once again causes Leon to drain his magical reserves for the night.

Day Five (Day 29/Sunday)

When Leon gets up he's still coughing from his efforts the night before, and this worries him a bit. A little time with Mousse helps take it off his mind, as he's now made a new friend. Brunch is spent with Max, where they don't get too much farther than introductions. He then spends most of the afternoon in the Rec field, where he talks with Dias and then later has an ear bonding moment with Ritsuka. At dinner, he actually gets to talk with his roommate for once.

Somehow he gets caught up in his own thoughts and ends up having to run all out to get to Ashton and Dias before they decide to leave. Thankfully he does, and having heard Mr. Radio's announcement, all three head off to pay the man a little visit.

Day Six (Day 30/Monday)

Having missed breakfast, Leon spends the time after the riot chatting with Keman. Afterwards, he's ushered to the game room where he tries to get along with Phibrizzo. Showertime is short and sweet, and followed by a trip to the library and a talk with Ichimaru Gin. Dinner is spent with Fayt.

Not much happens this nightshift, as Leon holds back in his room after the Head Doctor's announcement. He does have a short conversation in the hall with Xellos, only making it one hall over before morning.

Day Seven (Day 31/Tuesday)

Claude joins Leon for breakfast and is generally supportive. His mun fails second shift, but Lunch include a run in with Precis. Mun is also fail for fourth shift, but dinner includes a chat with his roommate.

Come nighshift, Leon sets out alone but runs into someone who looks familiar. Kadaj, while not Yazoo, proves to be related and the two of them decide to team up for lack of better options. They decide to go on up the stairs. From there, they check out the janitor's closet, where they grab a few supplies, then also the extra storage where they grab a few more. After this, comes the radio clues which causes Leon to rush towards the laundry room. They face a monster, and Leon finds out more limitations to his magical abilities, but come out with a sword in the mage's possession at the end.
