Go Down

"Yeah." she calls, making her way across the net toward the ladder once more. "Slipped, no big deal."

Kimiko is helped up by Zee, and takes a moment to be able to stand by herself again, "D-d-d-did you get hurt...?" She seems genuinely concerned! She looks like she just came out from under a waterfall, but the girl still is more concerned for others than herself.

"If she's talking and not swearing the air blue she'll be fine. It's probably just a bruised ego." Zee says laughing, leading her once more out of the room towards the showers.

Meanwhile, Kenji is hanging out against the wall where he was when Zee and Kimiko headed into the storage room. He was practicing making as many smaller bubbles as he could, much of the time. If only he could move them after they were made... ah well. He casually waves to Zee and Kimiko as he notices them.

Shinigami reaches the ladder without falling over once; she barely even seems to need to steady herself, walking confidently on the net like it's solid ground instead of the swaying, spongy thing it is.



Hitoshirenu Shourai

Kimiko looks a bit upset that Shinigami ignored her, but doesn't say anything about it. "If you say so..." in response to Zee.


She is led to the showers, but has no plans to increase her 'skinship' with Zee. "U-um... you first..."

Zee shrugs at the suggestion that she goes first, then quickly strips and steps into a shower stall, turning on the water as she did so. Zee pays no obvious attention to Kimiko as she appears intent on washing herself and her prostheses.


"So, what did you think of what you did today?" Zee asks once she has a got a decent lather on, still pointedly not looking at anything reflective nor ar Kimiko. She can't exactly give the girl too much privacy here with only the one enclosed shower stall, but she can at least make sure she doesn't see if Kimiko doesn't want her to.



Hitoshirenu Shourai

The shy girl sits away, blushing a bit, making a point to keep looking down. "Um... it was... interesting." She may be a bit quiet, but she does seem to be honest. "I... don't think I've... moved like that before... so it was... kind of nice..."



accalia

"I'm glad you think that way. Try to remember what you did today, how hard it was for you, It'll be good to fix this point in your memory so you can look back on it in future and see how you improve with time. Each time you get better you can remember back to today and see how much you improved, Do the same every time you reach a new high mark too, so you can look forward to those moments if you slide backwards."


And with that Zee seems to be finished talking, she simply washes in silence, content to let things lie as they may, or to have Kimiko fill the silence with talking if she wishes.

Shinigami makes her way into the showers, stripping down to a black functional sportsbra as she does. 'I didn't intend to go at it so hard,' she chides herself as she unbuttons her jeans.


"Not showering?" she asks Kimiko, raising an eyebrow.



Hitoshirenu Shourai

Kimiko's face reddens further, "I-I... umm... I'm not... good with others around... when showering... or changing... I mean it's... so embarrassing..." She seems to somehow look smaller. She also keeps her head down so she doesn't see Shinigami undressing.

"Try the stall in the corner, the one with the curtain around it. should be big enough for you to stash your dry clothes to one side and have them stay dry while you shower." Zee offers kindly. There's a reason they have that curtained one, and it would probably be a good idea to get Kimiko out of sight before Kenji comes in for a shower.



Hitoshirenu Shourai

"...Um...? Oh... oh! Okay..." After a few attempts at getting back up, she manages to stand again, and retrieves her dry clothes, making her way to the stall. "M-Make sure not to look, o-okay...?" With the curtain closed, she undresses clumsily, then reaches out just enough to drop the wet suit on the floor outside. She sighs, looking down, then shakes her head and proceeds to shower.

"It's just flesh," Shinigami says, causally, pulling off the sportsbra as she steps into a shower.


"Hey Zee." Pleasantries dealt with, she sets about rinsing off, savoring the hot spray of the water.

Meanwhile, Kenji casually walks into the showers, avoiding eye contact or staring. He takes off his t-shirt and jeans, hanging them up, and is of course left wearing a pair bathing trunks on as he makes for a free shower. He idly comments "Only flesh my ass..."
