Thackery hasn't slept again since he woke up to find it Halloween morning again. He's roamed the halls expecting something to kill him the moment he accepts again that he's truly awoken...or worse, to turn into something that kills.

He pauses in the doorway of an office when he hears the soft sounds of someone crying from within, frozen there for a long minute as the desire to provide some measure of comfort wars with the conviction that contact will only cause suffering to one or both of them as the rug is pulled out from under him yet again.

Finally, concern wins out and he creeps inside. Unless stopped, he'll come up to Eric and then settle in to lay on top of him, purring gently.
