[With a smirk at Manabu's fumbling, Grey returns to the bed and lies down. Off he goes!
This particular scouting session feels like it goes significantly better than his last one, since this time around Grey isn't struggling with unresolved sexual tension and the guilt of breaking Manabu's delicate maiden heart. He gets a few names and describes various noteworthy details about the campus in case Manabu does wind up tagging along after all.
There's a professor named Dr. Fiddler who strikes Grey's interest for having a familiar voice (Or is that his imagination?) and teaching a class in the medical faculty. There's a Mr. Kovalyov in charge of campus security. Several plaques bear the names of various donors to the school: Raimondo Rizzo, Angelo Sebastiani, Olivia Gioconda, etc.
After a while Grey starts to get hungry, and he can feel his body getting stiff back at the apartment, so he returns with the usual jolt and stretches, blinking a little as he adjusts.]
I'm back. Manabu, have you got anything? Manabu...?
[...The dog is asleep. Grey stares.
He's torn between exasperation because Manabu was supposed to be keeping watch!!!! ...but also affection because Manabu looks cute when he's asleep. And he does need to be resting as much as he can, since he's also supposed to be in recovery.
So instead of waking Manabu, Grey takes the tablet from his lap and spends some time typing in corrections and additions to whatever Manabu was able to get down before conking out. He spots (well, sniffs, then spots) lunch at the ready while he's typing away, so that also helps pass the time while Manabu sleeps.
...And if Manabu's still asleep by the time Grey is done, Grey will entertain himself by cracking open the package of playing cards he bought the other day and stacking cards on Manabu's head. Better than scribbling on his face than a sharpie, at least!]
