Tino followed Lukas to the front gate, trying and failing and knowing he was failing to look completely normal. One of these days he'd learn to pass for... human, or whatever.
"Hei, Maddie," he greeted the nurse, hands in his pockets. He didn't like meeting right here in front of the hospital, where they were most likely to be seen, and he glanced about nervously before turning to Lukas.
"Well?" He was afraid to say much more, not sure what Maddie knew about their little excursion.

Maddie gave Tino a smile
"Hello Tino" Maddie stopped.
"We should probably get moving don't want a Doctor seeing us"

"Y-yeah. Where are we going first?"
Lukas looked at Tino, hoping he had thought that far.

Maddie shrugged.
"But we need to move out of sight before we get caught" Maddie pointed out. Worried that they had gone through all the terrible, just to get caught.

"Well, um. I kinda need to go... shopping. Lukas, you want to see your brother, right? I can just hit any store on the way." He turned to Maddie. She seemed to be aware of their AWOL status, at least. "Anyplace in particular you want to go?" He started walking, assuming the others would follow, not caring about the direction so long as it got them away from the hospital.

Lukas followed Tino, but didn't say anything. He was a little worried, to say the least. Would his brother even want to see him? He didn't start thinking about that until now. His brother was kind of... difficult. And odd, his best friend was a puffin for god's sake. It'd probably be best not to think about any of that right now, and just enjoy his freedom while he could.

Maddie followed without a word. She was surprised that both Lukas and Tino got out.She wanted to ask how they got out but she remembered out Lukas acted before when she asked she kept the question to herself.

Tino walked to the first corner, then the next without stopping. He didn't go too fast, but he didn't want to loiter, either, as either might attract attention. He glanced at the others again. Neither had said a thing about where they wanted to go. He was starting to wonder if it was a good idea to ask them along. Seemed like he was just going to be dragging them everywhere.
Oh well. He shrugged, and looked at the street signs, trying to decide how to most efficiently get to the old neighborhood. He frowned, and set off, no longer bothering to ask the others' opinions. Hopefully he wouldn't get them lost... ooh, a bus stop. Maybe there'd be a map. Maybe Maddie would even have bus fare!

Maddie Followed Tino and Lukas, thinking if coming was a good idea. If the Doctors need her and couldn't find her, then she'd be working long 12 hours shifts for free. She gave a depressed sigh.
"Hey Tino... Where are we?" She asked never seeing this part of town before

"We are...." he scanned the bus map quickly, then stabbed a finger at it. "Here. Here we are. And we want to go..." His finger traced the routes lightly, "-here." He studied the map briefly. "Looks like we can take this bus.. and transfer there... get off there... and then it's five blocks to Lukas's place." He turned to look at Maddie. "Don't suppose you have any cash? Be a long walk otherwise."
He reached an arm out to snag Lukas by the shoulder. The man seemed a bit distracted, and instead of stopping to look at the map, he'd strolled by and looked to keep walking unless someone stopped him. "Hey. Hey, we're taking the bus from here."

Maddie looked at the map and to where Tino pointed.
"I'm sure i do" Maddie responded and pulled out her wallet from her back pocket and opened it.
"Do you think 15 dollars can work" She asked shyly.

"I'm sure that's plenty." He looked at her curiously. "Have you ever even taken a bus before?"
The bus-stop bench looked rather dilapidated, but after a quick inspection, Tino deemed it safe enough, and gingerly sat on it. It didn't wobble, so he scooted over and patted the seat next to him in invitation. "Do you know the time? I hope we won't have to wait long."

Maddie looked at Tino, he sure did ask a lot of questions.
"I'm sorry I don't, but know a bus it won't be too long" Maddie smiled.

Lukas took the seat that Maddie had ignored, and Tino sidled up to him until their thighs were just touching. He would have draped an arm around him - he was craving contact badly after so long in the hospital - but Lukas fixed him with a cool glare that said "no" more plainly than any words could have. He sighed, and looked down at his feet, kicking them against the ground.
He was anxious and felt like talking, but nobody else seemed in the mood. He couldn't help it, though. "Do you think they'll remember me in the old neighborhood? Wonder what store I should hit... maybe it's better if they don't remember me. Maybe I should go to one here, but then we might miss the bus. Maddie, do you want any candy? What kind do you like?"

Maddie looked at Tino through the corner of her eye. Maddie didn't mind but, Tino did ask a lot of questions. She doesn't even know who he is talking to half the time. Then Maddie's mind clicked, maybe it was a side effect of his illness. Maddie heard the thought go through her head, and decided it to heartless to even conciser.
She heard her name be called and was sniped out of her thoughts.
"What?" She looked to Tino who was had his arm around and glaring Lukas. More thoughts flew into Maddie mind as she went back to looking at the ground.
