[ using allan's bandage ]
"Sorry if Ah dun do this too well." Ofelia reached into her pocket and pulled out the bandage, surprised that she still had it tucked away in there. Many people kept things on them and she was no different, or so it seemed. The end result was she took her time trying to get it on her companion, having to roll and unroll it several times before it looked somewhat decent on him. Ofelia wasn't good at healing people, she wasn't good at dealing with people period if her recent string of interactions was anything to talk about. When everything was done Ofelia stood up and offered Before a hand, a worried but still gentle smile on her face. "Thank ya, fer protectin' me. Ah'm really glad Ah asked ya ta come wit' me, an' didn' jus' run back ta the bunks."
Before's company was good enough, or more than good enough. He wasn't asking her a lot of questions and he was more than willing to let her run ahead. He was also not someone she thought would flip out and try to kill her any time soon, though his way of speaking was rather interesting. "Ya keep sayin' 'totes'. What does that mean?"
healing before for 21 points!

Before didn't struggle or indicate any discomfort when Ofelia applied the bandages, not even when she took her time. Okay maybe there was a visible cringe and an audible hiss now and again but Before wasn't used to putting up a "tough guy" front. Not unless he'd shut himself down prior.
He accepted the proffered hand, flexing his arms and legs to gingerly test his injuries. "Not bad! You've done a pretty good job, especially for a non-Lifer!" that was meant to be a compliment but you never know when someone would take things the wrong way.
"And why would I run? If I did, I figure you'd kill the thing, come back to find me, and then kick my a** worse than you did these Insanity creatures." His expression was of the utmost seriousness. For all of two second then he broke into a wide grin, "Psyche!" he laughed, lightly clapping the Sunny on the back. Emphasis on lightly. They were both pretty banged up after that weapon-turned-Insanity creature after all. "Offie, we're Hunters, well technically trainees, and it ain't easy or pretty. 'Course we got a lot of way pretty hunters who are totes easy on the eyes," he continued to tease, then his smile turned grim, "But in missions we gotta stick together. And fyi: I'd take a bullet for each and every one of us fellow trainees. Preferably not in the face. As for totes, it's cool-talk for totally because totally is way 90's and not old enough to be retro."
Somewhere in the back of Before's mind, a face wrought from metal rolled her eyes.

"Thanks. Mah brother used ta bandage me up lots when Ah was younger, had this weird habit'a gettin' inta trouble more often than not. Ah liked ta be outdoors, runnin' 'round an' causin' all kinds'a strife." Ofelia remembered those days fondly. Why did it seem like so long ago that she was out on the farm, climbing in the trees and trying to tip one of the cows up the road? She'd done that recently, if she thought so, or at least recently before she was taken to Deus. Who knows how long she'd been in one of those pods, living some kind of life where she was unaware of the passage of time.
Ofelia didn't really get the whole easy on the eyes bit, or that Before may or may not have been teasing her. Either way though her face turned red nearly up to the roots of her hair and she shook her head, a grin on her face. "Ah wouldn' beat ya up. Ah like ya quite a bit so hittin' ya would serve me no purpose, plus if yer willin' ta take a bullet fer me than Ah suppose Ah should be willin' ta do the same. Jordan says Ah need ta find sommin' worth livin' for, it'll make bein' here easier." The words didn't make sense to her either, seeing as Ofelia wasn't exactly the type to be sentimental over people or objects. Having something worth living for was a concept she just couldn't grasp no matter how hard she tried to wrap her mind around it, but maybe it was easier for people in love.
The thought of the word 'love' caused her face to get even brighter red, if it were possible. She needed to walk this off. "Are ya okay ta go on? Are we close ta yer room, Ah know ya probably got a room closer than mine. Ah'm in the 160 area."

She had a brother? First he'd ever heard of it. But then again, Before realized he didn't know a lot of his fellow Trainees. Whether it had been in Life or Mist, he'd always just sort of stuck to the same group, gravitating towards them because he knew he wouldn't get a knife in the back, or a scythe to the face in one certain case. "Were... were you and your brother close?" he wondered if that had been what prompted Ofelia to sign up. Did her brother suffer from some trouble those wretched Halloweeners and FEAR things caused?
He shook his head before giving the Sunny a mildly rueful smile, "It was supposed to be a joke but I guess my comic-timing, like a whole lot of me, needs a ******** of work." The smile becomes warm, pleasant even, which would have had a much nicer effect if he wasn't bald as a cue ball at the moment. "Jordan's got a good head on him, you'd totes do well to listen to that guy."
Before wanted to say more, about how he hoped she didn't misunderstand what he meant by taking a bullet for anyone. It wasn't out of selflessness, or compassion, perhaps it was when Bix or Story or Gale was involved. Molly too if only for Bix's sake, but for people like Ariane? Candace? People who looked down on him and thought him a joke? It was an odd sort of revenge for him, to have them know that the situation could have been reversed had it not been for him. He would have run at the mouth about how he didn't even fully realize just what he signed up for until it was too ******** late.
Except Ofelia had walked off and the moment passed.
"Ah, my room's 104, shouldn't be too far away," he declared as he caught up to her, Vanna still humming in his hand.

Ofelia stopped dead in her tracks and her face lit up bright red. Not only had Before been talking to her this entire time but she had somehow ignored most of what he was saying. Considering she'd cried to Jordan earlier that she wanted people to like her, that she wanted to get along, she'd been pretty damn rude just then and her flushed face clearly showed it. As Before finally reached her side, announcing his room number, she turned and looked at him with a sad and apologetic look on her face. "Ah'm so sorry, Ah walked off an' ya were askin' questions an' . . . " She trailed off, took a step forward, turned, and cleared her throat.
"Ah, hum. In regards ta me an' mah brother, we were really close. When mah parents sent me ta live wit' mah aunt he came wit' me. He's also the reason Ah'm missin' an eye." Ofelia tapped the eye patch with her finger, the hollow sound funny since she was missing the glass eye that should have been behind it. Where the heck did she leave it? "The day Ah came ta Deus though Ah had a fallin' out wit'em. Ended up callin' him an a*****e or sommin', seems really stupid now." It did seem stupid to think she was so reckless and brave back then, thinking calling someone an a*****e was nothing. Now she knew somewhat better.
She recalled what Before had said about his catching a bullet being a joke. A look of confusion crossed her brow as he started talking poorly about himself too, and her thoughts of her brother vanished. Ofelia placed a hand on Before's head, her fingers kinda feeling weird on a bald scalp. "Now lookie here, ya got me really excited an' hopeful when ya said ya'd take a bullet fer me. Are ya tryin' ta say ya were jus' pullin' mah leg? Ah know Ah responded afterward that Ah'd take one fer ya, but Ah know Ah was serious. Yer a good person Clover an' that's what Ah like 'bout ya. Are ya sayin' mah trust an' mah friendship wit'cha is misplaced? Ah dun really think so."
A smile, not a grin, pressed over her swollen and broken lip as she moved her hand away from his head and back to her side. Inside her chest her heart was pounding about a million miles an hour and she prayed that Before couldn't hear it. "So if yer room's close, lead the way. Ah'll always follow yer lead."Huni Pi omg sorry for delay we had a storm and then i got lazy and omg ofelia is waxing poetic sorry sorry

Before's face duckbilled in confusion, "Uh, methinks we're getting our wirings all crisscrossed. I meant the you-beating-me-up part was a joke. Not that you couldn't, because, let's be honest nearly everyone can beat me up. The bullet catching, though I totes meant."
He felt weird. There wasn't even the beginnings of peach fuzz to distract from the sensation of Ofelia's hand on his head. But since she wasn't using said hand to shove him face first into the wall or the floor, he wasn't going to push it away. Besides, she was already pulling her arm back to her side and letting him take the lead.
The Misty gave her a thumb's up to go along with the smile that crinkled the corners of his eyes. Encouraged by the Sunny's declaration of support he declared with renewed gusto, "It's this way!" and promptly led the way to his room.
It was surprisingly neat inside, for all of Before's failings, he managed to keep his room presentable. Quickly he rummaged for some spare clothes and a few recipe books and his notes. "This should tide me over until we can move back in."Rown OMG are you okay? D8 and no worry! Take all the time you need.

"Ehhhh, yer room's kinda surprisin'." Ofelia looked around as she stepped inside, glancing here and there over everything. She'd never been a guys room before (Jordan didn't count, the door was open and he was like her brother), even though a few had been in hers (Before had, she doubted he'd remember) and she was generally just....interested in how it looked so plain. It wasn't like she expected something amazing but at least maybe she'd find something to talk about. Instead she found nothing and therefore had nothing to really say. "Whatcha grabbin'? Other than clothes, that is. Ah wonder if Ah got anythin' worth takin' back from mah room."
Ofelia looked around a bit more before stepping back into the hallway. Something just didn't feel right all of a sudden. Her sudden paranoia was rewarded when something burst from around the corner, charging their way. "Clover! Sommin's comin'!"Quote: 11-32: A small, semi-solid creature snatches at you with painful claws and teeth. HP: 5 Auto Damage: 2 (hit or miss) Huni Pi OH HEY IS THE KITCHEN FINALLY SAFE?!

Before immediately planted himself in front of his prized possessions on his table. Which weren't really a lot, just some self-help books from fellow trainees and comics from Bix and of course a framed get-well card from Killzone. "There is?! Where? I don't see-" something small, fast, and strong basically upper-cut Before on the jaw. "AUGH! I bid mah tongue!"

Ofelia ran in to get to Before, trying to catch the monster, when she tripped over what looked like a pile of clothing near the door. She landed flat on her face, still somehow managing to summon Rue in the process.
She looked horrible and man she felt embarrassed. ". . . . . pretend ya didn' see that, mmmkay."

It was one thing to be ambushed and attacked in the halls. It was another when it was in his own room. >8C Just as the creature lunged for the downed Ofelia, Before promptly threw himself bodily at the attacking thing and landed hard on top of it. Of course, it wasn't a pleasant experience for him either, as evidence by his very loud grunt upon impact.
"You okay there? And those aren't mine," he wheezed, gesturing to the socks the Sunny tripped on.

"Mmm good, mmm' good. An' sure, okay. Ah'll jus' . . . .kick 'em over there then." Ofelia was pleased to see Before take the creature down and she pushed herself to her hands and knees and quickly crawled over. "Lemme see yer tongue. Ya bit it, right?" She opened her mouth and stuck her tongue out, apparently thinking it would be proper for Before to do the same. She did kick the socks as she said though, go Ofelia!
What are you two doing good lord hick do something interesting so a change. Like. . . tackle him or something. Maybe you can make him try and kill you like Rep wants to.
The teen was doing her best to ignore the boo hag. Trying to very, very, very hard.Huni Pi yaaay I look forward to it! She promised him a good cooked meal after all~ And cake~

The coppery taste of blood was distinct and prominent in his mouth, thankfully he didn't bite any parts off. But there was a visible line where his teeth sunk in and broke the flesh, at least it should be visible when he mimicked the Sunny in sticking his tongue out. "Doed id loog bad?" he garbled, finding it slightly difficult to properly enunciate.
Vanna had some choice words for her partner, but it was more about Before's situation rather than his condition. Gather your things and let's be on our way. she tersely ordered.Rown We can wrap this up soon?

Ofelia took a look at the tongue, her eye narrowing as she decided if it was okay or not. "Ya didn' bite it so deep so there's no worry'a ya chokin' on yer blood. If yer mouth does start ta get full, spit it out. Swallowin' blood makes stones in yer stomach, if the old folk tales mean anythin'." Ofelia pushed herself to her feet and started towards the door, eager to get to her room. . . . but what for she couldn't remember. There really wasn't a need to get to her room, there was nothing important in there.
Her flip flops were on her feet. Her cards were back hidden in one of the bathroom stalls so they wouldn't get stolen. Basically she could maybe. . .grab her pillow? Or perhaps she only wanted to go to her room because she missed the feeling of safety that was the small space with blank walls. "Should we get movin'?" There was a chance whatever was out there could come in here and she didn't want to have to fight and die in someone else's room.
Not...at this moment, anyway.Huni Pi okay! should we make a quick run to her room or not? do you want to roll a few more times?

Before looked skeptical about the forming stones part but he figured he might as well do as she said. Once there got to be too much blood that is. He didn't think it was necessary at that moment. "It'll probably clot on its own anyways." He nodded in agreement at both the advice and the suggestion to move out.
"Yeah, let's go before anything else attacks us," he glanced over his shoulders in suspicion. "And it's your turn to lead the way."Rown I'm good with the rolls we've done XD

"Okidokie then. Ah'm gonna make a quick run ta mah room, yer welcome. . . . nah, actually. Ah dun need ta get ta mah room, but there is somewhere else we can go if ya like." Ofelia had been hearing gossip lately about the main building being clear, or at least massive sections of it. With the main section clear the kitchen was clear and if the kitchen was clear. . . . "Ah'm thinkin' we should go ta the kitchens instead. If Ah recall correctly Ah owe ya a cake, right? Ya think they got it fully stocked up there?"
Ofelia grinned, broadly. She really wanted to bake, baking would help take her mind off a lot of things. Also it was one of the few really girly things she was pretty good at and had a decent right to be proud of.
