Not only was Sasha sounding normal again but her "ah.." was back. Very strange, strange indeed.
"Still want that super meaty sandwich?" she hesitantly moved away to fetch the bread.

"Yes, that ah.. that sounds. Pretty good. I guess."
Sasha leaned heavily against the countertop.
"Can you ah.. bring me stuff to make Jerry some sandwiches too? I'm just. I don't know. I just want to be outside in the sun."

"Sure thing Sasha," she grabbed everything needed and carried the whole lot to set down on the counter top in front of Sasha and... well. She attempted to give Sasha a small hug, even if Sasha denied the hug Rin flashed her a smile.
"I'm not sure what's up with you, you've been acting funny all day - you seem normal now though."

Sasha looked confused for a brief moment, a tinge of sadness in her eyes.
"I'm.. not sure. I think maybe I'm just.. overwhelmed. I don't know. I can't explain it, I just.. I don't know."
As soon as Rin approached, Sasha began to half-heartedly slap together a few peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. They were messy and haphazard, but they were still edible.
Sasha gave a heavy sigh.

Rin smiled even broader after the hug before moving over to build Sasha a sandwich using at least one of every meat between at least one slice of every cheese and then looking unsure, "Do you like mayo and mustard or?"

Sasha shrugged, a mild expression on her face. The hug had made her feel... a little better, but. The vestiges of melancholy lingered.
"Whatever, Rin. I'm not picky."

Rin frowned, while this was a little more Sasha she was still... unsettlingly at the opposite end of the spectrum this time.
She slathered the sandwich lightly in both condiments before cutting it in half and wrapping it and then doing the exact same procedure for her own sandwich.
"Maybe after we swim and eat we can nap in the nice warm sun?" she raised her eyebrows vaguely hopeful that might drag Sasha back into her happy medium.

"That sounds alright."
She guessed.
"I am pretty glad to have our ah.. our rooms back, aren't you?"
Sasha packaged up the sandwiches she'd made before glancing in Rin's direction.

"Extremely! It's nice to have a bit of stability back in ones life," she raised both her brows at Sasha.
"Did you want us to pack these sandwiches into something like a real picnic or just carry them as is?" Rin gave Sasha a soft little thoughtful smile.

"Whichever you think is best, I guess." Sasha shrugged and fussed with the rainbow towel. Whereas before it seemed so vibrant and stunning, Sasha didn't know how she felt about the multicolored rainbow thing now.
She glanced towards her jacket, reaching out to pick it up. The bracelet jingled in the pocket.
"I'll probably lose the bracelet if I put it back on, do you think? Or will it be safe if I wear it to the beach? It is really pretty."
Sasha sighed.
"I guess."

Rin frowned a bit sliding all their sandwiches into a bag.
"It's up to you Sasha. It is indeed pretty but saltwater can be a nightmare on some metals. It's really your call."
Great, now she was starting to look worried again. Was Sasha depressed now? Was it something she said or did?

"Yeah, you're right."
With a hum-drum expression, Sasha slipped her arms into her jacket.
"Are we ready to head off? I mean.. we should change into our suits, I guess. Unless we can do it on the beach somewhere, I don't even know."
Heavy siiiiiigh.

"We should probably change now really, the beach doesn't have much of any cover for that sort of thing," she approached the pile of stuff to take her swimming suit.

Sasha slipped her hand into the jacket pocket, fingers toying with the bracelet. Maybe it would be okay if she put it back on, just so that she could look at it now and again and think about how pretty it was.
That seemed like a reasonable decision.
With a soft tinkle, Sasha placed the bracelet back on her wrist, deftly fastening the latch. Her smile grew a little broader.
"Where should we change?"

"Maybe the pantry?" she pointed, not yet realizing what that sudden perk in her voice meant.
