Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mitsu had been able to feel the reaper tense with each step he took, no doubt he was still in a fair amount of pain. Though he said he was fine...maybe this was like earlier? Instead of questioning if he was really okay or not Mitsu just decided to play along. "Y..yeah I could use a short break if that's okay."

Her arms were a little tired after all though the weight Shun put on her was slight. It was no different than carrying a backpack as long as he focused his weight on her shoulders and not her arms.

As Shun took a seat Mitsu did the same sitting with a little distance between them to give him for space for now. Asked about her arms she moved them slightly, they were sore...and her hands were mostly numb the slightest of tingling felt in her fingers.

"I..I will be sore in the morning. As you said," She let her arms just limply rest at her sides for now which was a bit of a relief. The lupine would have rubbed at them but it would have required her to use one arm to sooth the other. Since both were sore it wouldn't have worked out well.

There was another silent nod of acknowledgement knowing full well she couldn't strain them any more if she tried. They were barely functional at this point.

After a few more minutes of rest Mitsu stood again so that they could continue on to the dorms. It was always a different feeling walking into the reaper dorms than it was the monster dorms. For one it wasn't as brightly colored and didn't uphold that bigger is better value that seemed to stand true for everything in the monster dorms....everything.

Mitsu seemed to be getting a handle on where she needed to turn to get to Shun's room. After a few afternoons of coming to study she had finally mapped out her course in her head enough that she wouldn't get lost. In no time, despite Shun's lagging step in one leg, they were standing in front of the reaper boy's dorm.

Mitsu had been planning to allow Shun to enter his room and then just leave so it was a bit of a surprise when the reaper told her to wait. Moving just inside Mitsu closed the door behind her and watched curiously as Shun searched about for something. When he finally produced a small bottle and motioned her forward, Mitsu complied.

"T-thank you," She said gratefully, her arms working rather stiffly as she reached up to take the bottle from him. The liquid inside looked like an oil of some kind, she wondered what it would do. Intent to use it and give it back Mitsu reached up to pull the sleeves back on her t-shirt to expose her arms a bit better, though the effort wasn't without a struggle. She did her best not to whimper though finally getting passed obstacle one.

"Do you think your leg will be okay?" Mitsu asked as she brought back the bottle to put a small amount of the liquid in her hand before handing the bottle back to the reaper. Once the bottle was passed back Mitsu made an attempt to rub the oil on her arms her ears falling to the sides of her head feeling the tender muscle.

Mitsu hoped the oil worked quickly. It was going to be hard to take a shower and wash her hair as it was when she got back to her dorm.

At then mention of Prom Mitsu gave Shun her full attention again. She could pretend she wasn't excited but she was. Excited and nervous but mostly excited. There would be food, dancing, and music though there would also be lots of people and Lizzy had already talked her into not wearing her normal mask. She hadn't wanted to go without one completely so they had to come to a sort of middle ground on the situation for her nerve's sake.

"Pick me up?" Meaning he was going to come get her? Something about that left her feeling rather touched but she wasn't sure why. Maybe it was because no one had offered to come pick her up before...or hang out...or much of anything before this year. "Y..you don't have to come all the way over to the monster dorms. I..I can meet you."

"I..I don't want to be a bother." Though it wasn't that long of a walk. "I..if you really don't mind. I look forward to you picking me up then." The tone of her voice sounded happy, one could almost hear the smile in it.

"I..I guess I'll leave so you can relax and treat your leg." Her focus had gone to his hand as he idly messed with the bottle of oil. He also seemed to be shifting his weight as he continued to stand. "D..Do you need anything before I go?"

There was a small smile that went unseen as Shun thanked her. "You're welcome." Mitsu nodded. "A..and thank you for the oil." Her arms were already feeling the promise of relief.

Turning around Mitsu reached for the doorknob. "I..I guess I'll see you later then." With a slight wave Mitsu took her leave of the reaper's dorm so that he could rest closing the door behind herself as she went.
