[If he comes a-knockin', Link'll find Allen in his room once things have finally calmed down.

He'd managed to wash off most of his own blood and zombie... guts, and change into fresh clothes (he's running out of those) before flopping onto his bed and deciding that it might be time to stop moving around for a bit. He's exhausted. Worst than exhausted, almost, but he's been fighting necromorphs for days. Anyone's bound to feel ill after that, after all, right? It's probably normal.

There are people he needs to talk to and check on, he knows. After a nap...]

[Lucky for Allen no one comes immediately barging into his room the moment he lies down. The initiative did give everyone handy communication devices though, and after having allowed Allen to retreat and get himself cleaned up, Link finds himself standing outside 103 awkwardly debating which way to best deal with this...

Eventually he just leans by the door to pull up Allen's contact information and starts typing up a message.]

Walker. [He stares at this for a while...] It would be best if we discussed what happened as soon as possible. [...and sends that off.]

[...Rolls over... and grabs his tablet.

There's nearly a minute delay before he responds.]

where are you ?

Outside.

If you need a moment to compose yourself I can return in a minute or two.

[

Opens the door.]

Link.

[I'M JUST. DOING MY JOB!!!1]

You're still looking a bit unwell.

How long have you been standing out here??

I haven't been out here the entire time, if that is what you're wondering.

[YES, THAT'S... NOT CREEPY at all or anything.

He steps back, regardless.] Do you want to come in?

[Well. He was planning on speaking with Link anyway, so.]

[Making his own face at that dubious expression, but stepping in with a nod.]

I will try not to take too long, no doubt you could use some rest.

[Shutting the door behind him.]

I reckon we all could.

[Letting Allen lead to wherever he's comfortable having this conversation, not sitting unless invited. He folds his hands behind his back, having nothing to busy his hands with this time around, probably looking out of place with how formal that stance is.]

I suppose I should start with whether or not you have questions that I might be able to answer...

[Allen, for his part, seems to have forgotten his manners as a decent host and remains where he is, eyes on the floor as he thinks.]

I don't know.

[He has questions, he's just not sure if Link can answer them.]

Is there anything else that could... worsen my condition?

[Priests with holy healing swords are definitely on his to-avoid list now.]

[At least Link doesn't really mind standing.]

[Hesitates for a moment.] From past experience, I would guess that being severely injured to the point where your Innocence tries to rescue you or being mentally weakened to the Noah's influence may also put you at risk.

[There's a small pang of guilt that it may have been his own words that triggered the episode in the Order's dungeon, but that much detail doesn't seem to be something Allen needs to hear about right now.]

['Mentally weakened'? So that's happened...

Well, then. He nods.]

Exorcism couldn't help at all?

The results of attempts have been drastic enough that I wouldn't recommend trying it again just to see if it will eventually work.

[Early Christmas morning, Allen's going to sneakily place a present in a place where Link will find it when he wakes up. Attached is a note that just reads

"Merry Christmas, Link!
-Allen Walker & Tim"

Inside is a simple magnetic notepad, a rolling pin, and a couple snow-themed cookie cutters (he's not sending a subtle message about wanting cookies or anything though.)]
