 Elin DeraWhat am I missing?
Elin sighed softly, her attention turning to the suddenly standing soldier before her, eyes widening as Wren produced an admirable salute. She shouldn't have regretted anything. Now...she had someone to give her a reason to make the right choices, and to start looking forward in life.
Protection. That was new. "Just don't forget yourself while you watch over me." The ginger couldn't help but blush a little. It was an extremely touching thing. Walking over to the brunette, she reached forward and took her hands. ". . ." Elin looked up at Wren, a 'thank you' showing in her eyes.
OoC: aww. It's okay! boy, I just missed ya. I was getting off when you were hitting reply! Rotten luck.

Wren nodded a little in response to the girl taking her clammy hands in her own, smaller and warmer ones. She was glad Elin's diction had changed. She seemed relaxed now, albeit maybe a little embarrassed, as her cheeks appeared to be reddening. "Don't worry about me," she offered, with a small smile.
Yes, this felt natural. Wren couldn't help feeling relieved to have someone to stand beside, fight for. In a personal way, anyway. Of course there's always the notion of fighting for whoever it is that's by your side, but this felt different. More like.. family.

Elin DeraWhat am I missing?
"I'll make an attempt. No promises that I won't beat the s**t out of a person or two. Or ten." It was a joke. Sort of. Elin gave her hands a little squeeze, smiling up at Wren. It was certainly an interesting bond they'd formed, but she was beginning not to question it. It was unique, and she was just fine with that. Whatever it was worked just fine for her. Maybe she'd even go by Ackerman some day, but for now she was plenty fine with her mother's maiden name.
OoC: uweeh, now I'm hungry for dinner...

The brunette drew her shoulders up with a dainty laugh, higher than her previous had been. "Well - if we can ever drag ourselves out of bed in the morning - we can go blow some fumes at the training grounds while we figure out how we're gonna get you moved into my squad." She hoped it wouldn't be too difficult to merge their lives together.
Eyelids heavy, Wren nodded back toward her bedroom door. "Anyway, I'm gonna fall over dead if I don't get some sleep soon," she laughed sheepishly.

Elin DeraWhat am I missing?
She let go of Wren's hands to pull her own above her head as far as she could reach, a set of little cracking noises coming from her spine. "Sleep sounds...great." Elin started to wobble a little. "F*ckin fantastic." And with that, the younger woman started to doze off, leaning into Wren.
OoC: personally, I can never have enough boiled white rice. OOPS.

[Wren Harbinger]
Wren widened her eyes a bit, raising an eyebrow as the redhead relaxed against her. She tilted her head down to listen to the girl's breathing and found it slow and steady. 'How the hell.. she's asleep!' Wren giggled quietly to herself and gently leaned down to pull Elin's legs up from the crook of her knees, one hand bracing her back. Her ankles protested a bit as she straightened back up, sleeping Elin in tow, but she turned and moved toward her bedroom door, nudging it open with her foot.
Very carefully, and somehow successfully, Wren managed lay the girl down without waking her up. She sighed, still a little amused by the fact that she'd fallen asleep standing, and went back to the closet to retrieve a large, folded quilt. Standing up before backing out from the closet, she rammed her head into the underside of the overhead shelf and grunted, immediately slapping her hands over her mouth in fear she'd woken Elin.

ooc; this is so cute in my head lmfao

Elin DeraWhat am I missing?
Elin faded in and out of consciousness, somewhat aware of being lifted up and put down. An attempt was made to move as the noise brought her closer to being awake, but she was very much in sleep mode. Her eyelids lifted slightly and her eyelashes flickered. But other than a little hiccup, she was out. Although she tried to say something, it was just a slurred mumble in the end.
OoC: Elin is very pretty/cute when she's not making Levi's facial expression. Ahh they're so adorable together!

Quietly retreating to the bed, Wren unfolded the blanket and crawled over Elin to lie between her form against the wall, pulling it over them.
She lie silently for a while, staring up at the ceiling at the shadows cast from the window above the bed. Elin seemed to already be sleeping rather soundly, despite the noise she'd made. She must've been a heavy sleeper. 'Possibly a narcoleptic, also..' she thought to herself with a small chuckle.
It took about an hour, but she managed to find a position she was comfortable in and started to doze off. Curled on her side with her knees pulled up against her chest, arms wrapped around her thighs, wedged closely between Elin and the wall.

Elin DeraWhat am I missing?
The lieutenant woke up early considering all she had drank. Elin had managed to forget this, and found it quite pleasant that she'd managed to fall asleep on her bed instead of at her desk on her paperwork. Snobs were unhappy that some blurred words were stuck to her face from falling asleep on top of some important document. It wasn't exactly her favorite thing, but work was work. As the ginger stretched out, she felt a pain in her head and something soft that her fingertips were touching. It was Wren, which caused her to jump at first before her memories came pouring back.
And she felt absolutely disgusting.
Elin attempted to roll over and get off of the bed, but her legs didn't feel like cooperating quickly enough, and her body hit the floor with a small thud and a groan. She looked up at the ceiling, splayed on the floor. If she didn't move, maybe all the sick feelings would go away. Either the ginger had fallen asleep or blacked out. But did they...do anything? She thought not, but she supposed she wouldn't mind either way. The lieutenant pressed her hands to her face, wishing all the terrible feelings away.

Stirring a bit, Wren rolled back onto her back and opened her eyes a little as something came into contact with her abdomen. "Nn.. Elin?" She turned her head to the side, still trying to blink the sleep from her eyes. The piercing headache that was presently throbbing behind her temples became evident, and she reached up to rub her face, jumping slightly at a large thud, accompanied by the blanket being pulled off of her and drug over the edge of the bed onto the floor.
She rolled onto her stomach and pulled herself to look down curiously at the other girl, whom she vaguely recalled carrying to bed, but that was all she remembered. Elin was rubbing her face the way Wren had been moments before, seemingly trying to combat a hangover. Tangled up in her clothes and the quilt, lying in a pile on the floor, she seemed rather disgruntled. Had she ever had a hangover before? Wren smiled a little, draping her arm off the bed and poking the girl in the center of her forehead.
"You alright?"

Elin continued to stare at the ceiling. "I died...and then my insides got roasted on a spit in hell...and then demons shat on my brain...and then I got spat out back here." She turned her head to look at Wren. "How're you doing? And how the hell are you smiling?" She inquired, tired and incredulous. How she was even alive was beyond her right now. Hopefully, she'd enjoyed herself.

Wren nuzzled her face into the bed a little and yawned. "Mm, you'd be surprised how good sleeping feels when you do so little of it," she mused, stretching her legs and relaxing once her ankles began to strain. They weren't very sore, though, thankfully. She surmised that the two of them had a long day to face. Judging by the dull light coming in through the thin curtains, the sun hadn't been up longer than an hour yet. They'd have time to get coffee somewhere before.. well, what exactly were they to do now?
She rolled back onto her side to look down at Elin again, bangs slipping down into her eyes. "Are you going to talk to your superiors today?" She reached up to push them away, and propped herself up on one elbow.
There wasn't anything else for her to do. She wasn't due for any training sessions as far as she knew, and if there were any chores building up for her back on base, she'd be thankful to have enough accumulated work to kill time another day. She'd have to kick herself if she spent another day wandering around, her ankles likely couldn't bear it.
"I'll go with you, if you want."

Elin DeraWhat am I missing?
Elin let a hand drag across her face, the traction of her fingers pulling at her face, red-orange hair everywhere. "Talk to...the captain?" She groaned. "...talk to the captain...?!" Her face was blank as she finally worked it out. "Oh s**t, I need to talk to the captain." And with that, the young woman rolled over to lay on her chest, face pressed against a floor that was, well, who knew how dirty it was. Talking to her captain hadn't been something that she was keen on when the topic first came up. And now, Elin wasn't even sure that she could make it to the room's door.

Sitting up fully and dropping her legs over the side of the bed, Wren popped her neck and sighed. She recalled the intensity of the conversation they'd had about Elin joining the Scouts, and regretted having ever offered the idea. She shouldn't have pushed the other girl into something so suddenly.
"You know, you don't have to do this," she started, standing up to remove her waist apron, which had been uncomfortably squeezing her hips all night. She spotted her bag near the door to the bedroom and assumed she'd put it there when she came in to change. She stuffed the garment inside and looked back at the other girl. "Take some time to think, if you need to."

"I've had four years to think. It's just--ah!" She squeezed her hands against her temples as she sat up, pain rushing into her skull. "The captain's...a bit strange. And I have been helping, making sure people such as the top weapons manufacturer gives some of his top-grade gear to the scouts instead of the police. I can only hope he'll respect my request to continue to do that kind of thing." He did seem nice, for his emotionless-ness. "He likes sweets, and that's just about it."
