Well that decides it he texts back. "Stay," he tells Inari, who gives him a look and wanders off.

It'd be nice to start a fire now, to come back to, but he feels like it might be irresponsible (him?) to leave the house with a fire crackling and no one home but a curious dog. Practically, people probably did all the time when it was what actually heated their house but it still seems like Inari would find it really amusing to set the whole loft on fire.

The roads are kind of shit, but they're also empty, and he doesn't live that far from Hana drive time, so he makes it over to her apartment relatively quickly, texting her and leaning on the car.
