[3rd Person's POV]
The night the Alpha team went to the funeral hall, Allen had been sneaking glances at Jade. He wanted to ask something, but he couldn't find the right word to say.
His gaze then would shift to his captain, Claude, wondering if it would be best to talk to him first. After a few minutes of contemplating, he decided to talk to his captain, but then, he lost sight of him.
He asked Jade where Claude was.
"I last saw him talking with Commander Lan," Jade replied. He looked like he was in a hurry; thus, Allen excused himself and searched for Claude.
He found the man outside the funeral hall, gazing blankly at the flickering light of the lamppost, with his hands in his pockets. He approached him, his silent footsteps did not escape the captain's sharp senses.
Claude turned slightly and met his eyes.
