Ah, young love. How endearing.

Yer not that much older, ya know.

Of course not, probably just a lot more jaded. I've been in this place a bit too long. Almost two hundred days now.

...that is a long time.

First of our group to arrive, too.

... now I feel old.

...kind of amazin' though. Two hundred days isn't even a year back home, but here, it does so much.

Haha, I've gotten more scars here than back home. Not to mention the two deaths.

... wow, it should not be easy to say that at all.

...no, it really shouldn't. [S-sob, this place.]

Still not sure how I'm gonna explain the raptor bite if we really return home with those.

Blame some murder mystery.

And oddly-shaped knife. Things like that.

That'd work for my arms, but my shoulder really does look like something tried ta bite my head off.

If people are missin' us now, probably be rather easy, but dependin' on how time is goin' back home, time frame is also an issue.

Heeeeh, that's true. Though... I might be able to show you a way to mask it, if you want. I think Ophiuchus should be able to get the supplies for it. And it's only a matter of practice after a few applications. Easy to get this sort of stuff back home.

...possible ta mask it even under physical exertion? I'm in a martial arts club.

Well, plenty of my masks have stayed in place under certain exertions...

I guess it would depend on the location of the scar more than anything.

Lots of scratches along my arms and pretty much... [Pats a hand over her shoulder.] All over here... [The thing was thaaaaat close from ripping out her throat.]

[leans in close to study the scarring...]

... I think it's workable. Or at least, you can keep it masked until you find out a good way to excuse the scarring.

[Bluuuuushes at the closer inspection.]

...all right. Thanks. [It is a relief, actually.]

So ya'll teach me how ta do it. What would ya like in return?

Chocolate dipped strawberries? Ah, with white and milk chocolate?

... two batches, if you want me to show you other cosmetic tricks.

... [I am still red at a tomato.]

All right.

But I swear if that's a come on after all the touchin', I will hurt ya. [And there's the tsuuuuun.]

[... ker-blink]

Ehhh... no, not at all. I owe a teammate of mine something sweet for making a remedy for my eyes.

... the other batch would be for someone else I know.

No offense, but as beautiful as you are, I have another lovely lady in mind.

Thought there was somethin' wrong with them... [It's the only reason she didn't flip you right away.]

But good! As I do have a boyfriend, as we established. But I'll get ya the strawberries.

You're an angel of an Ophiuchus.

[rhwaqehauiwhewaho]

I...I ain't an angel... [But bright red, DAMN YOU.]

Haha. Just feel free to pull me aside in a few days. My sight should be good enough then to help with the masking.

A-all right...

[Paaause. Wait.] This is gonna require access ta the stuff I'm disguisin', isn't it?

... well yeah. Mostly, just wear a tanktop or something.

It's fine. I'm a professional. My dad used to teach this sort of stuff back home. He even had a couple of ladies who became famous actresses thanks to that sort of stuff.
