She bowed and smiled in acknowledgement of the girl's greeting.
"How are you this evening?" she quietly asked, taking note of the sleeping babies, and not wanting to wake them

 Fenris had been just kneeling beside the unconscious Fujiwara in the kitchen. She hadn't budged. Soon, she heard voices though. People. Others. Nami? Nami was there?
Her concentration broke as she looked up quickly. Soon though, she scooped Fujiwara up from the floor and brought him out into the main room to place him onto one of the couches that was not stained with her own blood from the night she returned.
In fact, her clothes were bloodstained and worn still and she still had yet to bath, meaning she was covered in dirt and blood still.
After placing Fujiwara down to rest, she turned to face Nami and the newcomer, not daring to blink as she watched them.

"I'm alright." Nami replied, still smiling as she set her scroll aside. "What about you? Are you finding it okay here?"
She set her feet down on the floor, turning her body more towards her new companion. However as she finished speaking, a new presence entered the main room and Nami tilted her head, surprised to see Fen carrying an unconcious Fujiwara.

"Everything seems nice so far, thanks," she replied. "I haven't really come across anyone since the night I showed up though. Everyone keeps fairly busy around here?"
She sat down on the couch next to the girl, and noticed the other girl arriving. She bowed slightly, though she was a bit concerned about the fact that she was carrying another person with her.

Nami rose a brow. "Fen, what happened to Fujiwara?" She asked, staring at the immobile form.

"Uh-....Uh... faint...?" Fenris responded softly, her eyes glued suspiciously to the new woman. She crossed her arms uncomfortably before finally looking back to Nami. "Who is...?" She started, though failed to finish her sentence.
She felt uncomfortable about this new woman, mainly because she was new... (Duh.) She suddenly perked up for a moment and ran into the kitchen. She grabbed a towel and picked up the teapot before wiping up the puddle on the floor. "Dirty, dirty, dirty..."

Nami's brow rose even further at the child-like way that Fen spoke.
"She's a new student." Nami said noticing the distrust on the girl's face. "Her name is Yuriko...she just got here a few days ago..." But then Nami supposed Fen didn't hear the last part of her sentence because suddenly she was running to the kitchen.
"What's going on?" She stood now, moving to follow.

She could sense the disdain in this other girl's attitude, and didn't care for it one bit. She was a bit relieved to see her leave right away. When the other girl followed, she simply sat where she was and pulled out her konko. She still hadn't bothered to really look into anything, like where exactly she was, and how she'd managed to get here. She'd assumed that in the amount of time it took her to get here, she should still be somewhere she'd heard of before. But she hadn't heard of this place ever. Not even at the yearly nin tournament.

Even after the puddle of what was once tea water was cleaned up, she continued to scrub at the spot with the tea soaked towel. She paid no mind to Nami or the new student anymore, completely captivated by the simplistic motions or her arms.
"Dirty..." She whispered more to herself, unblinking.

Nami approached Fen slowly and with sure movements, removed the cloth from her grip. " Why did Fujiwara faint?" She asked, standing back up. She felt completely lost, unsure of anything.
She'd been so wrapped up in the first six months of her children's life that she'd paid little attention to life in the dojo unless it concerned herself, Clow or the babies. A blood covered Fen and an unconscious Fujiwara wasn't re-assuring.
She opened her mouth to speak again but one of the babies cried out and isntantly she was heading towards them, hoping Fen would follow and at least explain a little.
It was Yuuyami who'd made the noise and she glanced down to find that he'd startled himself. He could comfort himself. Apparently it was better to let them calm themselves down, or so her mother had said.
She turned her back on the two carriers, standing close to Yuriko and glancing in Fen's direction.

She noticed the girl coming back to the babies. She set down the konko, so as not to be rude, but she wasn't sure what to say. It was such an odd feeling, but it was understandable. Back in Hyogo, she'd have researched the people she was entertaining, in order to be able to hold a conversation with them. She knew nothing about this girl, and didn't know where to begin.

"He just.... did..." Fenris said before the baby cried out. She stayed there, sitting in content on the floor of the kitchen. The kitchen floor was probably cleaner than it had been in a month because of that scrubbing.
She soon got to her feet and walked over to the couch Fujiwara was now laying on. Was this a way of leaving her? Fainting? It certainly seemed as such.
Her eye twitched as she stared down at him, her body shaking slightly. She tried to stop it though, crossing her arms tightly. Why did this always happen?
( Note: Fenris has gone literally insane y this point in time... she acts... funny... xD; )

Nami bit at her bottom lip, unsure of how to handle Fen. Instead, she sank back down next to Yuriko. Had Fen lost her mind?
She watched as the kunoichi continued to stare down at Fujiwara, as if expecting him to jump up at any moment, or rather, hoping.
"I'm Hyuuga Nami." Nami whispered quietly to the girl beside her. "I'm sorry I didn't ask your name earlier. I saw it embroidered on your pack..."

She smiled in return, "Full name is Takamura Yuriko."
Well now I have a name at least. That makes it easier, if I run into anyone and they ask what I'm doing here.
"So are you a student here as well then? Or a teacher?"
