"Oh right, yeah, nicknames." she looked flustered. She was so clueless with this sort of thing. "They're up to you though I just..."
She tucked an arm behind her head, smiling up and over at Sasha fondly, "... would it be okay if I called you Goldy? Short for 'Golden Sparrow'? That way if a monster ever came to you pretending to be me, you could always ask it that? A name for you, just from me."

"Golden Sparrow," Sasha tapped her chin with an index finger, looking utterly contemplative. "Ohh, like.. okay, yeah.. like, you can call me Goldy and I'll uh."
She cleared her throat.
"I'll call you um."
She cleared her throat again. This was hard.
"Uh." Her mouth twisted. "B-beanbag? R.. remember that one time?"

Rin chuckled so hard it hurt. Double-hurt, "AhahahaohohohohOWWwww..."
After a bit of a whimper she still forced a bit of a smile, "Maybe you could call me Beany for short, eh? I think some people might take it the wrong way~"

Sasha giggled; Rin's laugh was pretty infectious. "Beany." She looked concerned when Rin made that small cry of pain.
"Are you okay? I .. I'm sorry. I .. where does it hurt? Should I call for a nurse?"

"Aww... no Sasha, I am fine... please. First time I've laughed since I got here. I feel so stupid and embarrassed..." she was still smiling, "with you here though that doesn't matter. Because I have a friend. A friend who honestly cares."
She nodded her head, "Goldy, you are better than a nurse."
"What are you hoping to become in the life labs anyway?" she hoped shifting the subject meant Sasha wouldn't leave to shove a nurse in the room.

Sasha looked unconvinced, but soon enough she was smiling again.
"I'm not sure. I mean.. I haven't done a whole lot of anything, really. It's.. been busy lately, at least it feels like it." She shrugged.
"I'm hoping to like. Get promoted at some point. That's why I'm.. well. I'm taking care of Clarice's errands while she's gone. The ones she does for the doctor, I mean. Nothing big or terribly important, but. After ... well, after the meeting."
She idly brushed her thumb against the back of Rin's hand, too lost in her thoughts to really realize what she was doing. When she spoke, the gesture stopped abruptly.
"The doctor and I had a discussion." She shrugged.

"It sounds important to me. Clarice earned that amazing room with the bathroom doing those duties." she fell quiet looking very intrigued.
Mostly by the thumb rubbing against the back of her hand but even as it stopped the look continued as Sasha spoke, "What about?"

Sasha hummed softly, looking thoughtful.
"He's giving me all my stuff back - the stuff from the note. He said he's going to have it put in personal storage." She cleared her throat. She most certainly was not going to discuss the doctor's friend - or his feelings for her - with anyone.
"And I felt.. so bad, Rin. I just. I had done something like. So disrespectful, and he was just being so... nice."
Sasha rearranged herself on the bed, leg swinging again.
"Anyway. It's pretty exciting. A step in the right direction."

"Sounds exciting. I'm just sorry I can't watch you do your thing or get to see all your neat little salvaged treasures."
She frowned at Sasha feeling bad, reaching out a bit with her free hand, "Commere~" and gesturing at Sasha nearer with it.

Shuffling a little closer, Sasha lifted her brows with a smile. "I don't want to jostle you," she mumbled in a low voice before stopping her forward movements.
"Well when you're all.. all better, okay? I don't even know what's there yet."

Rin attempted to reach out with her free hand and begin running her fingers thoughtfully through what of her hair she could now reach, "I'm not jostled." she suggested.
She admired Sasha's hair quietly, "At least it shouldn't be long now. I'm already feeling a lot better."
She flashed Sasha a smile, "Having friends visit is very helpful. Better than any medicine."

When Rin started brushing her fingers through Sasha's hair, the trainee smiled. She wiggled a little closer, helping to spread her hair out across Rin's lap. If it made her sick friend better, then Rin could play with her hair all she liked. Sasha didn't mind.
"I'm glad you're feeling better. Maybe uh. I have to talk to Jerry about um. Well, I want him to be there with me when I ah.. open it. Or .. whatever."
Her cheeks flushed.

Rin got more into sorting out Sasha's hair the more of it that was offered, "Oh?" she sounded thoughtful.
She wasn't sure where Sasha and Jerry were going with things but she couldn't help but ask, "Maybe I can come too? If not though... three's a crowd so I understand."

Sasha dragged a long stretch of hair over her shoulder, idly braiding it as she watched Rin's hands in her hair.
"Mmhm, well, I mean." She lifted her gaze to peer at the other woman's face.
"I don't mind. If you want to .. to come along, I mean. I doubt Jerry will mind either."
Another bright, flashing smile.

Rin noticed her braiding her own hair a little and looked thoughtful, "would you like your hair braided?"
Rin smiled back, "Awesome~ I'm so curious to find out more about this enigma that is Sasha~"
