Alka: Y-Yeah... *Any confidence Alka had was noticeably gone now. His look was fairly saddened. He sighed again before looking at Clare* Hey, it was nice talking to you, but I need to head back to my room. Got important work to do. Secret stuff, for now anyway. I'll swing by your room when I'm finished, alright? *Alka stood, not even waiting for a response. He grabbed his pencil and his sketch book and headed back for the apartments. Also, something became strangely more noticable to Clare's eye. His tail seemed off. Almost, limp and lifeless, not really moving to Alka's will, but just flopping around as he walked*
