Day 72: Sun Room (3rd Shift)
Finally, it was lunchtime. Second shift had gone by way too slowly for Zero's liking, although spending his time sitting and waiting impatiently for the shift to be over didn't help him any. Having a staring contest with his nurse probably helped even less...but it did give him something to do that wasn't sitting or staring at the board, at least.
But that was then, this was now. Another awkward intercom broadcast aside, Zero was very much ready for the next shift to start - and he was welcoming it by standing from the couch he'd been restlessly sitting on for who knew how long and staring at the prisoners leaving the Arts and Crafts room. Ciel had to be one of them. He hadn't seen her come out of the showers at all, and the nurse had prevented him from going into that room for a reason, right? So she had to be there. Had to be.
She better be...

"This Landel freak-" she gestured vaguely at the intercom "-did sometime to it. It doesn't work right here." Except for last night. She opted not to mention that.
"There was a guy who could take bending away back home, but it wasn't like this. I get it back every night." Korra held back a shudder at the thought of Amon. "According to someone else, he's got some sort of power limiter that blocks my chi during the day, or... something."
She didn't know how to explain it herself. A temporary block of her abilities? How was that even possible? Especially without her even noticing?
