I thought about possibly saying something to Willow, but when I notice her walking off, I instead decide not to bother her and go back to my room.

"Huh? Oh..." I say, turning to Xiao as she snapped me out of my trance. I don't know what it was, but for whatever, Leina's actions held a strange reaction. Nyx may have said far worse things to me, in public even, but they just simply didn't have the gravity that Leina held, and I couldn't explain why. I give out a disheartened sigh and wash myself up, though I don't bother soaping my wings, there was simply too much work involved in that.
"How do I get my back...?" I whisper under my breath once I actually get there.

Once I get into my room, I immediately shut the door and rush to my bed. I sit down on it and stare at my hands as they were now a bit more wet from continuously wiping away silent tears. "What the hell is wrong with me? Since when do I give a s**t about what other people think or say? I do what I want and say what I want... I've never doubted myself... What the hell..." I talk to my self and trail off at the end. Why did I care what these people thought? They were just like the rest of them. "I didn't even want to be here!" I just about scream as I jump to my feet and throw the first thing I can grab at the wall. I was here because of that stupid guy I met in the village. And he was dead. I should have quit and gone my way then... I start to take deeper breaths as I realize I'm breathing hard and look toward the wall to see what it was I threw...

I walk towards Irene and Sand-Claw. "I found a bathroom so we can wash up. Why don't we go take a bath and then go find something to eat. We can play later, okay?"

Willow:
The door is locked!
Apollo:
When you get back to your room, you find the east tower to be very quiet. Your room is exactly as you left it.
Layla:
After a moment of watching you try to figure out how to clean your back, Xiao comes over and takes the soap from you.
"Here," she says. "I scratch your back, you scratch mine."
She starts cleaning your back.
Leina:
It was an oil lamp. Your wall and floor is now covered in glass, wood, and oil. It looks like part of it got smashed in such a way that it flew out of the window. It happens to be the window that allows you to see over to the east tower.
You are on 4F, if you forgot.
Apollo:
Suddenly, several pieces of glass rain down on your window sill. Some stay on the sill, one or two bounce onto your bedroom floor, and the majority of them continue to fall the rest of the way down the tower.
You are on 2F, if you forgot.
Nyx:
"Okay," Irene says.
She comes over and takes your hand.

I lead her to the stairwell and go down towards the washroom. "Don't open the door at the bottom of these stairs. The sign down there specifically tells us not to. Okay?"

As I look at the mess I've made, I curse some more and then, avoiding the glass as best as possible, I go about my room looking for something I could clean it up with. i silently say a prayer as well that no one got hurt by the glass flying out the window.

"Works for me!" I say with a semblence of more cheer.
"Maybe I just had the whole thing confused, but I really don't appreciate the assumption that I have no sense of public decency. Because clearly I can't control my urges or something!" I shout out frustratedly. However, it did help out a little. I didn't want to drag myself into a mire of rage or frustration, however; that tends to do nothing but destroy the grudge bearer in the end, and I still had to make sure everyone gets back, or at least do my best to try and see that goal achieved.
"Sorry about that..." I say to Xiao embaressedly.

Nyx:
"Okay," Irene says. "Must be important..."
When you arrive, you find Xiao cleaning Layla's back, but not her wings. They're talking about something.
Leina:
You find nothing in the room that would help. Perhaps there is a janitorial closet somewhere in the castle?
Layla:
"Honey, I've been working for your family since I was three," Xiao replies. "If you'd seen the things I have, you'd know that that little outburst was nothing."

I sigh as I realize I'm going to have to go back out of my room again but before I do so, I decide to lean slightly out the window to make sure no one was really hurt...

I help Irene undress before undressing myself. I turn on showers for both of us and I start washing up.

"Can't have you remember me for that, though!" I say cheerfully.
"You know, I never really heard or saw anything like that, and we were in the same house... what went on?" I ask, a slightly morbid curiousity washing over me, bt in the same sense, I hoped I wasn't going to hear anything I didn't want to. Well, better to know the truth if it is bad... But how do I react? Would she be offended if I started apologizing to her? Probably, she's tougher then that... Perhaps a warm hug, something to show companionship... Why am I bracing for the worst?

The unexpected rain of glass startles me a bit, but out of curiosity, I go to the window and look out of it to see where the glass came from, all the time being careful not to step on any of the glass that fell on the floor.
