"Remi?" She echoed, allowing Amrita to finish before she actually said anything; that was a name she did not recognize, although the only person she actually knew in Amrita's group was... Xiu. The fact that she saved someone made her feel oddly proud, but that feeling didn't last long in the face of 'this Remi probably took Amrita's first real kiss, meanie'.
The Johan thing was met with a frown, but 'on the cheek' meant that... Amrita didn't just sexually harassed the boil, which was good, seeing how the reaper didn't seem to like being touched from her previous experiences with him.
"He kissed you?" She blinked, the piece of information sinking in slower than the rest. When it finally did sink in, she twitched, "Christof kissed you?" She did not care about hugs; hugs are great as long as there was no bad touching involved, but kisses? That took all of Christof's good points in her books; she thought that he was nice to Amrita because he liked her as a friend!
Did he like her as something more then?

In her mind, she was still completely and utterly impressed with the whole hugging thing. She knew what hugs were, she knew she liked them and was aware that some meant something and others did not, but also that it was a widely accepted social convention that she didn't need to be confused or alarmed about. Not like kissing, anyway. Her arm was in mid-flailing gesture when Lizzy seemed to become a broken record. With her arm still held out and the one in the sling slightly forward as well, she just stared at the Demoness, unaware of the slight blush that was forming on her cheek. "Um, yes, he..he did." There was a slight pause and she slowly - very slowly - lowered her arms to rest more naturally against her. "In the tent." She repeated softly, in case Lizzy forgot about that part. It was an important part.
"H-He sewed me up some, too? So, um, maybe...it was an...an accident?" Somehow, she didn't like where this was going. Lizzy seemed rather upset at the news that Christof was one of the ones. "Um, see?" She said, pointing to the sewn up line on her chest where there was once an impalement wound. "A-and this one!" Trying to move the conversations away from the whole kissing Christof thing (she couldn't explain why it was making her so uncomfortable), she instead thought it was a good idea to show her the once bone-deep cut on her mid-thigh that the igor had mended.

Amrita was making it worse.
Sure, she could choose to look at it from a rationale point of view, where Christof was being a good friend and helping to mend Amrita, whose body he had a part in constructing, and was thus, probably familiar with. With this point of view, the areas he helped stitched up did not matter - never mind how both aforementioned parts of the body happened to be... Uh, very feminine parts. After all, if it had been someone like Malodore treating her, Lizzy wouldn't actually care which part of Amrita was mended. She would just be grateful.
However, the fact that this was Christof, the same boil she had been wary of for various reasons in the time they knew each other, made it hard to believe that he was doing it purely out of the goodness of his undead heart... Especially now that Amrita no longer looked like a 9 year old despite her mental age still being rather close to that. There was also the fact that Amrita trusted Christof and would never, ever think that he would take advantage of her.
Lizzy was a lot more paranoid.
"I doubt so," She muttered under her breath, failing at her attempt to be unbiased. Her expression darkened ever so slightly as she held the ghoul. There was a brief pause as she tried not to over-think or over-analyse, although it still brought her back to her original point, "Accident or not, don't let him do it again, okay? If he does, tell him that such intimate actions are inappropriate between friends."
And that he'll have to go through Lizzy's trial by fire terror warrior if he wanted to be anything more.

As she settled her dress back in to place and absently smoothed out the (apparently fashionably) tattered ends, she kept her lips pressed in an awkward, sometimes squirming line as she thought about it. The realization that she was making it worse was seeping in, and only because Lizzy went quiet for a little bit along with that somehow darker expression. Yeah, she probably made it worse...but she didn't really think it was that bad!
Yes, Amrita trusted that Christof would never take advantage of her, but while she did trust him with her entire being (almost literally, considering), a part of that trust was also because she didn't really know what she had that could be taken advantage of in the first place. She did certainly doubt he would make her do his homework, so aside from hard work what else was there? :V
"Okay, Lizzy." She murmured like a disciplined child, her body slouching to give the same impression. After a moment she started to fidget again, raking some hair over her shoulder to twist and curl between her fingers. "S-so, I should, uh, ask him first? If it was an accident or, um...not?" Somehow, it didn't seem fair to her to take Lizzy's advice to heart if it had been just an accident.

She was about to retort with 'But isn't it an awkward question to ask?' when she realized that she was talking to Amrita and that it was probably not awkward to her.
"If you want to," She nodded hesitantly, since there really wasn't a reason why she shouldn't, especially if she really wanted to know. Whether it was an accident or not no longer mattered to her, however, as she was determined to find out Christof's intentions towards Amrita.
"Sorry if I was harsh," She said suddenly, looking sheepish as she patted the ghoul on her head; she looked distressed and Lizzy couldn't help blaming herself for it, "I just didn't want anyone to take advantage of you. Uh, your body." The moment the words were out of her mouth, she realized that Amrita probably didn't understand the meaning of those words put together... And she mentally face palmed at herself.
"Like kissing you or touching you excessively without your permission or a good reason, for example."

"It's...um, it's okay." She murmured, smiling lightly at the pat to her head. Hee, headpats. She loved headpats! There it was though, another thing she didn't understand. Take advantage of her? How? Oh, her body? ....But how? Lizzy answered her question mere seconds after she thought to open her mouth to ask about it. The answer to the unspoken question was mulled over; okay, the kissing part she understood now, kind of, but the rest...
"Excessive? How do you know if it's...excessive?" She was only recently getting into the actively hugging thing and before that she took great pains not to touch anyone almost ever. Since she was learning...might as well learn everything, right?

"Uh... Well..." Okay, that was an awkward question to answer, although Lizzy tried her best to remind herself that this would benefit Amrita, especially since she would be easy to take advantage of, "If someone - especially a boil - tries to touch or asks to see parts of your body that is usually covered by clothing, it is bad." At this she stopped to take a closer look at what Amrita was wearing; thankfully, the ghoul was wearing a decent looking dress.
"Christof looked at those areas," At this, she somehow stopped herself from visibly twitching too much, managing a firm but sheepish smile, "But like you said, he was helping you with your injuries... However, if there was no reason, you should never allow anyone to look or touch those places!" There! She was being rationale about Christof!
She paused briefly to pat Amrita's head again, missing the way it felt when she was actually the taller one, "If you feel uncomfortable about something, it's usually bad... So learn to trust your own feelings as well."

"Got it." Amrita confirmed with a nod. Okay, that was a guideline she understood. Easy enough to remember as a rule of thumb; plus she tended to dress somewhat conservatively and wasn't too incredibly keen on too short of things unless she had to.
"Um, okay, so...it's okay for repairs and building but...that's it?" She just wanted to make sure she understood this part. "B-because, Christof did get and help put together my parts, um, Malodore too...b-but that's a good reason, right?" The body didn't actually get any sort of clothes until she was already possessing it, after all. But the last part made her curious, tilting her head and pouting thoughtfully.
"B-but...a lot of things..." A lot of things made her uncomfortable. A little less now than it used to, but on the whole it was hard to judge that way, because it was easy to make her feel that way. "Err, w-well...alright. I'll...figure it out."

"More or less, yes," She nodded, hoping that Amrita had a slightly better understanding of things now, "I mean... With repairs, you can't really get them done with your clothes on... Although I would advise keeping your undergarments on at least, even for repairs." Why anyone would need a stitching in those areas she never want to know. Ever.
In fact, to make herself stop thinking about it, she decided to give Amrita a ton of head pets and hugs.
"Do you have any more questions?" She figured she might as well answer all of them at one go now, if there were any more for her to address.

Amrita had a lot to mull over; this wasn't what she intended this meeting to be at all! Not one bit. In fact it was quite opposite! She wanted something nice and light and this...was definitely neither of those things.
"Um, no, I don't." She admitted quietly; at the moment she really didn't! But she didn't know how to save the conversation, either. Life was harder when you weren't in the heat of battle, and school-life stress was hard. She fidgeted with the torn ends to her dress, thinking about many a different things. It seemed like a while before she finally looked up at her Demoness friend.
"Um. Do you...still sew a lot?" She didn't want to intrude in case she didn't, but... "'c-cause if you did I...I would, um, r-really like it if you made me some, er, things...?" Truth be told she still didn't like clothes shopping and was never a big fan of Lizzy's attempts to change her wardrobe, but...field trips, however short, had a way of changing you and, obviously, she was somewhat of a new ghoul.

Lizzy blinked, genuinely surprised; she might also had shed an invisible tear when Amrita asked her to make her something... Amrita had never, ever asked her to make anything, and Lizzy had long given up trying to get the ghoul to update her wardrobe, because she didn't seem to enjoy it. In fact, she was so delighted and pleasantly surprised, that the whole 'Christof' thing was quickly pushed to the back of her mind - to be addressed at a later date - to make way for this new development.
"I do!" She said, a little too eagerly as she took Amrita's good hand in her own, smiling so much that her face was starting to hurt, "What do you have in mind?"

Amrita glanced sideways just in time to see Lizzy's face light up faster than the trees in Christmas town. She visibly jumped, her eye wide as her hand was eagerly taken, and admittedly had to stop for a moment or two to think about what she'd just said. Mostly, what she implied with what she just said. Did she just open the door for another round of attempts to drag her shopping? Eeeehhhh she did! Why would she do that she just wanted one thing but...sigh, oh well. It was done, future Amrita can deal with that.
"Um...N-nothing, really, just...whatever you think is...best...?" She shrugged lamely, still not too versed in the whole dressing thing. The clothing she had now was what Riley - and later Natalia - had gotten for her. Well, in Natalia's case, it was more of an eager suggestion; she didn't want to tell Lizzy she had gone shopping with another ghoul.

"Uh, um... A dress?" She suggested, too excited to think clearly as she frowned, deep in thought, "Or... I could make - what do you call it - a sari? You seemed to like those?" She didn't want to suggest anything too different from what she usually wore; it would be bad if her eagerness scared her and changed her mind about
"What do you feel comfortable in?"
