Day 44: Women's Showers (2nd Shift)

[hajike-tobiume.livejournal.com]

The sting of the water on Momo's wounds reminded her exactly where each and every burn was. Between that and the clear plastic wrapping the nurse placed around the long cut up her arm to her shoulder, she decided as little time in the actual spray would be wise. Sitting on a stool out of the direct stream, she went about scrubbing the grit and grime.

It almost felt weird to be alive with her throat intact, but Momo was not about to wish it was otherwise. In the past, maybe, but she remembered who she was and could not allow herself to become what she had been prior to her encounter with the undead knight. Wincing a bit with the pain of washing, she turned her thoughts to her upcoming meeting with Shikamaru. Or rather, she tried to. She still had to see Hitsugaya once she finished her shower.

Raine gave her a Look. "I'm explaining my logic, not making excuses. I will look at him; I'm not expecting any major events tonight, but that doesn't preclude seeing two or more people that need to be healed."

Especially considering what she had to look forward to, it was going to be a long day... not that they ever weren't.

Now that Raine had fully agreed to see Forte, with a sound of understanding, Sheena returned to something far more interesting - the youkai.

Silently, her eyes trailed down the youkai's body as the ninja tried to finish her own hair. She was distracted, so anything else Raine may have said to her went completely unheard. I wonder if Yukari chose that spot on purpose...

Raine wasn't surprised when Sheena's focus promptly wandered off, but it looked like something specific had her attention; she turned to follow her friend's gaze and saw Yukari. Judging from Sheena's expression, if they had fought they'd gotten over it.

Actually... it looked as if any tension between them might not be the result of fighting. Raine raised her eyebrows slightly, remembering some questions on romance; was this the object of Sheena's (apparently reluctant) affection?

Of course, she chose that spot on purpose. That damn youkai never does anything without a reason. That reason is usually to entertain herself, but...

Sheena tore her eyes away from Yukari so she could fully wash the suds from her hair. Once done, her eyes found the blonde again.

She's so... pretty. Like perfect or something. Sheena bit her bottom lip and finally looked away. Can't let her corner me tonight.
