Summary: Signless (and Di) at long last moving into Signless' allocated room and meeting his roommates.

Convincing Signless to wait for her to return to him before attempting the trip to his new hive had taken a while - and yet Disciple knew that it had been much easier than if he'd been feeling himself. It pained her every time she looked at him and saw how badly his ordeal had scarred him, mentally and emotionally as well as physically. As deep as the burn scars on his wrists were, the pain he'd been through ran a lot deeper.

His wrists were bandaged but thankfully healing extremely well considering what he's been through. His dreams have been wrought with memories of torture and the deaths of thousands and his waking hours were burdened under the weight of guilt and the belief that the fault lay solely on his shoulders. Certain sounds made him jump and grow defensive, yet Signless fought to keep his calm and a smile on his face, small and weary but a smile none the less.

And so Di had been making herself smile for him too, her hands gentle as she supported him during the walk to his new hive, trying to get him to lean on her as much as he needed to - and knowing he'd always take on more of the burden than he should. But with a few stops to rest they finally made it there, and her arm around his waist tightened just the slightest bit as she knocked on the door, hoping that at least one of his roommates would be in.
