Ofelia had just finished cleaning up the blood, or at least the last of it that she could see at the moment, and was taking the time to wash her hands for the third or fourth go around. The smell of blood didn't bother her, she was so used to smelling and tasting her own at horrible times, but if she wanted to make herself a sandwich (and one for this Solia person) then she'd need to be clean.
That also meant pulling off her bloody shirt and tossing it aside. It could have gone in with the rest of the stuff to be bleached clean, meaning that it would have horrible white patches, or she could just toss it in the sink, flood it with cold water and soap, and let it soak. That would save the fabric and save her time, a natural win/win situation.
With her shirt off it was possible now to see the extent of her injuries. They hadn't healed at all like she wanted, in fact they still looked horrible, and at the moment they were stained red with her own blood from effort and with Rep's blood from trying to move him. Her tanned skin looked ashen and, to anyone who walked by, it would appear that a murder victim was trying to make food.
This was a very good thing.

Ofelia was still trying to wash her hands still, the entire motion too much for her so that she ended up just standing with her fingers under the water, when someone came up behind her. She didn't remember how long she'd been just standing, her brain thought she was at least washing, but the pruney skin of her fingers and palms begged a different story and the teen faintly groaned as she turned the tap off. It ached to bend her fingers, mostly because they were so soggy, but she managed to yank a grin onto her face anyway and turned to face her company.
"Oh, ya mus' be. . . .Solia? Ah'm Ofelia, s'nice ta see ya face ta face." She would have offered her hand to shake it but seeing as it was starting to hurt to move and she was bloody and wrinkly she decided not to. She also decided not to take into her new companion's sudden panic and concern over her injuries. "Not all the blood s'mine, so no worries, an' Ah'm not bleedin'." Ofelia answered, speaking softly. It could have been a little hard to hear her, she was somewhat whispering since that allowed her to speak without having to gasp or use her phone, but a toothy grin was what the red-head felt would work best to show she was okay.
Solia was here for a reason right, not just to say hi? It was almost sad how quickly Ofelia had forgotten much of their twitter conversation other than how to clean up blood and - oh, that was it. "Yer here fer food, yeah? Gimmie a sec ta get feelin' back in mah shoulders an' Ah'll make ya sommin'." It was just like Ofelia to decide that she could and would totally work through any and all pain without much complaint.

"Hm...ya dun need ta worry, no one here did this ta me an' Ah think the student that got'a hold'a me was taken down by the person who rescued me." Ofelia was a little vague on the details even though Melvin had told her before. A lot of the period of time of her first coming out of her coma, without Rue there to protect her and heal her, had been rough and forgetful. A medical haze, if she wanted to call it correctly. "An' while the offer'a a backrub sounds amazin' Ah think fer the safety'a mah shoulders Ah'll pass. Ah. . .might'a popped some stitches movin' him earlier, hmmm." She couldn't really turn her head and check, that hurt a lot too, and just from how she was whispering would be enough to tell anyone that her throat was pretty injured still. "Also yup, mah top's soakin' in the sink. Ah've got really few clothes an' most'a 'em are all bloody."
Ofelia really needed to stop getting everything she owned covered in either her or someone else's blood. It was a bad habit for one thing, a health hazard for another. She shifted from the sink with a small grunt, turning the tap off with more of a hit than a twist, and she stood there letting the feeling slowly return from the screaming pain she certainly was feeling. To take her mind off it, she asked about the movie. "There's a move where someone's got mah name? What's it 'bout?" The redhead didn't really watch a lot of movies.

Pity, it really was a lovely film to Solia. But then, so was the last unicorn. And the Lion King 2. Solia had a rather… random taste, aside from being selective. “Hrm, well, there are certainly a lot of doors to go out of!” She smiled at her own joke. “But if you play, maybe we can have a volleyball match? Or go running! I am more sporty? Plus I did my exploring at the beach already. Didn’t get super far however.” She gave a shrug. “And they told me to avoid the jungle unless I’m duty. Something about how I am so tiny things in there would eat me.” A tiny pout, and Solia waited for Ofelia to get the shirt on.
Or not.
“Oh. Oh wow um.” She stared a bit and blushed. “Wow okay I probably should have seen that. Um.” Solia smiled. “On the bright side, you’re covered?” She was trying to look on the bright side but wow, cleavage. Poor Ofelia did not look comfortable, and it anything, some passing male, (or female), could at least enjoy it.

"Food, yeah, yeah. What kinda sammich ya wanna eat?" Ofelia could move a little, the top actually was holding onto her enough that it provided really nice pressure and allowed her to move without too much pain, and she started over to the pantry where she kept her loaves of bread hidden. It had taken a serious chunk of her paycheck before the portals failed to get all this food, and she'd been very careful in where she hid it and stored it. "Any particular bread too? ah got wheat, white-wheat, an' a little bit'a rye bread left." Ofelia liked all breads, she wasn't a picky eater in the slightest.
Her next step was to move over and open the fridge. Sadly it looked as though someone had gotten into her meat selection for it was very clearly lacking. She needed to move into a house or something, a place that she could have her own kitchen and fridge or anything, so no one would steal her goddamn salami anymore. "We're outta some'a the meat, looks like our fellow carnivores got ta it."

"Picky eaters are hard fer me ta deal wit' - Ah grew up havin' ta make mah own meals so Ah learned that if Ah wanna eat Ah gotta eat everythin' Ah make." It totally made sense in a wonderfully roundabout way. . . sorta. "So it makes me really happy ta hear ya like such'a wide selection'a food." She turned and grinned at Solia, winking...sort of. "An' yer in luck, there is a little bit'a prosciutto left. What kinda cheese ya want, we got everything from pepperjack ta colby, an' then lemme know what kinda dressin'."
The teen pulled out the prosciutto as well as some smoked turkey and ham, and then grabbed a bit of American cheese for herself. Mayonaise was grabbed, not Miracle Whip (because Ofelia liked the more bitter tartness) and she set them out next to the different breads. There was also mustard, the pretty brown spicy kind, and what looked to be banana peppers. Hmm.
"If yer wantin' eggplant, check the veggie hutch over near the pantry - there might be some in there? Ah dunno if the other hunters who go shoppin' like fresh veggies an' fruit as much as Ah do. If there is some, grab it - an' maybe some tomatoes while yer there?" Ofelia was making the sandwiches, sure, but Solia certainly could help grab things seeing as the redhead was semi-crippled for the time being.

There was still some left. Still some left. Those words had her face lighting up with a grin. “Yes! Top score. Got any swiss? Oh my god wait. Wait, no no. No, if this is the last- we need melon.” Melon and prosciutto, she had no had in so long… she had a mighty need. Rushing to the fridge indeed, a half a melon was there, ready, waiting. God was smiling down upon her this day. “I dunno if you have ever had, but a bit of prosciutto and melon? A wonderful combination. Sandwiches come everyday, I can just have some regular ham or whatever but this-“ she held up the melon, “-soooooo much sweeter. Salty and sweet, a real treat. Oh god I rhymed.” Giggling she began to fetch other sandwich supplies. Spinach, tomato,(just a Ofie had asked), cucumber, cream cheese- Solia liked flavor. It was simple really. Alas, she didn’t find any eggplant though. “Okay. Just let me grab the cutting board and a knife and then we can get cooking and if I start to drool tell me to stop because oh god I’m so excited these will be the best.” She might have begun to bounce in place, overly excited. Grabbing the last of the materials, she looked to Ofie asking without words- ‘DO I CUT ALL THE THINGS NOW?’

Ofelia was pleased to someone else who was excited about food, someone else who was excited about putting random things together and then eating from there, and she couldn't help but keep a doofy grin on her face even as her shoulders started to protest the movement of something as simple as making a sandwich. It was almost surprising how much she used all those muscles without ever really knowing and when she got back to the labs she'd make sure to sleep on her stomach for a while.
For now though, sandwich.
"There's swiss, yeah, Ah'll get that out fer ya. What kinda condiments ya want on yers? Ah'm gettin' mayo on mine, some mustard an' maybe oil an' vinegar if Ah can find some. . . " She was thinking that far ahead, counting things off on her fingers, when she looked to see Solia with a knife and lots of vegetables. "Uh...jus'. . .cut as much as ya want? Ya got onions too? Do whatever makes ya happy, Ah'll get the base set done an' we'll go from there." It was funny, Ofelia always thought she talked a lot but Solia was taking the entire cake.
With enthusiasm.
