The lobby was deserted--likely because they'd heard the gunshots and run for cover. This meant, though, that she was once again away from any help. She leaned against the glass entrance doors, catching her breath.
For once, she'd like things to be a bit peaceful. Was that too much to ask?

For Sid, actually, it was.
"Ah, shit," he grumbled. "I guess this means we're taking back the room with Christopher in it."
He tilted his head to one side, registering the growing clamor outside of the hotel and pushed Anastasia a bit roughly towards the stairwell.

"Christian," she responded tiredly. "And I think it'd be really idiotic to hole up somewhere with a dead body in it."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. As long as he's not decomposing--the stench gets pretty bad, then."
As if words were not enough, he made a face to express his disgust.

She thumped him on the shoulder, though it wasn't really effective thanks to her tiredness. Really, it was getting to be a lot of effort to feel anything around him.
"A smart one would hole up somewhere away from the scene of the crime." She muttered.

"Well, it's not like they barged into our room and stumbled across his corpse or anything. I mean, technically, we didn't 'check out'..."
He made air quotes, and with a self-righteous smirk, added--
"Although I'd like to check you out."

"Gaaah," she cried, exasperated.
"Could you just...be serious, for once? Staying here isn't a good idea...although I don't know why I care, since it'd be better for me if you got arrested."

"Being serious isn't part of my job description, sweetheart. And why in the world would anyone ever want me arrested? Oh, I think I know why."
He leaned in towards her and gestured to himself.
"It's because you can't endure all this raw masculine-ness."

It took her a moment to respond, as she had to choose between punching him, rolling her eyes, or stomping away in irritation. In the end, she did none of these things.
"You certainly have a high opinion of yourself."

"I'm only stating the obvious, darlin'. Now, where were we? Oh, yes--up you go!" he exclaimed, giving Anastasia's bottom a slight shove up the stairs. He added in falsetto, "There's work to be done, people to escape from, so we musn't dilly-dally all day!"

"Someone's got an ego," she muttered under her breath.
She glared at the shove.
"Keep your hands to yourself!"

"God, will you pipe down for one minute and do as I say?" After a moment's hesitation, he added for good measure--
"Please?"

She blinked, caught off guard at the "please". That was different.
"Just...stop, with all of that flirting and whatnot. So much has happened today, and I have no idea how much more I could stand before I crack." She said quietly.
As she spoke, she walked up the stairs.

Sid shrugged and followed quietly in her wake.
"Yeah, okay. Got the picture."
When they'd reached the door on the landing, however, he jumped forward to hold it open for Anastasia, softly murmuring, "Ladies first."

Well, he was listening, for now. She'd take that while she could.
"Thanks." She said as she stepped through the door. At this point, she really was out of much else to say or do.
