[The last time Kurogane carried him like this, Fai had been unconscious and bleeding, slipping toward shock and probable death. Needless to say, he doesn't remember much of it. Usually when the bigger man picks him up it's to toss him over a shoulder, to carry him like a sack of potatoes (or more likely, a bothersome child). He doesn't usually mind that and he doesn't mind this now. He's not sure he could walk the whole way on his own even if he did mind.
Fai lets his forehead rest against Kuro's neck as the ninja walks, trusting Kurogane not to drop him. He doesn't say anything, doesn't even ask if Kurogane's been in this world long enough to have gained any of the currency to be able to afford a room.
Deep breaths. Focus on breathing and the rhythm of the ninja's steps. Let Kurogane handle the rest for a little while.]
