She nodded. "That works for me." She covered her mouth to smother yet another yawn. Who knows? Maybe she'd end up liking this little band she's found herself tangled up with.

Marx nodded, beginning to walk over towards the rooms. She led them through a doorless entryway before walking out into a rather oddly designed hallway. It was shaped like a triangle, with the tapered end serving as the end of the hallway and the wide end opening up to what looked like an indoor pool and hot tub
Luana looked around with a raised brow. "This…This is going to take some getting used to…" she admitted with a breath. This place was just getting more and more extravagant, the display of wealth clear with every nook and cranny and corner. She couldn't complain about the hot tub, however.
"Yeah, we don't usually stay in places this nice. We just got a discount because Corinth is friends with our label producer, and this is where we get the songs recorded and produced," Marx explained, turning down the hall towards the rooms at the narrow end. "You can have whichever of the two rooms at the very back, right or left. We stash our instruments and costumes in the one on the right, and then the other three are taken."
Ah, so that somewhat explained the fanciness. Luana nodded slowly as she listened and followed Marx. When she was given the option of her bedroom, she cocked her head to the side as she thought. "As much as I'd enjoy sharing a bed with a guitar and spiked jackets," she mused, "Could I have the relatively empty bedroom?" she asked, turning to look at Marx.
"Yeah, ah, you can have one of these ones," Marx said, pointing to the two at the very end of the hall. She didn't really mind which bedroom Luana took, she more minded having to explain to everyone the situation the next morning, when the rest of the band wasn't drunk out of their minds
Luana nodded and tried a small smile directed towards Marx. "Thank you. I promise I'll be out of your hair as soon as possible." She was truly grateful for this girl that had saved her from Kade and offered her a place to stay while she got her shitty life back in order–or, as much in order as it was before.
"It's okay, you don't need to keep thanking me, really. Let's just get you something you can sleep in, alright?" Marx said, smiling sweetly as she for once managed not to turtle at something as simple as a small thanks
Luana nodded and waited for Marx. She kept thanking her because she was just not used to all of this help with no hidden motives—at least, none that Luana could fathom Marx having.
Marx walked off, returning a few moments later with a small armful of different clothes. "Do you have a preference? All I really have are big t-shirts, sweatpants, shorts, and a couple of big tank tops," she said, gesturing vaguely with her armful
Luana shook her head but stated her preference anyway. "T-shirt and shorts work for me," she said. She was already mentally going through her dwindling savings to figure out some way that she'd get some new clothes—and snatch her old ones from beneath Kade's nose.
Marx nodded, shuffling through the various things she had brought out before pulling out a large, old band t-shirt and a pair of shorter basketball shorts that were probably closer to spandex-length than anything. "Here you go," she said as she held the items out
Luana nodded in silent thanks and accepted the clothes. "I'll give these back tomorrow morning," she said. She already had a plan running through her mind. A bit of theft was nothing, and Kade certainly deserved it. The few grand she knew he had stashed away could hold her off for some time.
"Oh, ah, okay. Oh, before you go to bed, you should probably close the door. The rooms are relatively soundproof, and you'll probably need it when the others get back. Also, Adrik's kind of a night wanderer, so if you hear someone in the hall at like two in the morning it's probably him," Marx said as she gathered up the rest of her bundle
She nodded again and started toward one of the available bedrooms. "That's alright with me. I'm a heavy sleeper anyway." She paused and looked back over to Marx. "I'll be heading out early in the morning, so don't worry too much if I'm missing."
Marx tilted her head in confusion. "Why's that? Do you need to go get something? Because I could probably get us a ride," Marx offered, not exactly clued in as to what Luana was planning yet
She flapped her hand nonchalantly. "No, it's good. I can get there on my own, and it's not far. You've already helped a lot." She didn't need Marx discovering what she was planning. To Luana, it was well deserved and not that big of a deal. But others might not see it that way.
Marx just nodded a bit, rubbing at the back of her neck. "Alright, well…Do you have a phone so you can text me if you need anything?" she asked. She knew she was probably being overbearing, but she was just trying to make sure Luana was okay
Luana nodded and pulled out her cell phone. It wasn't much, but it was cheap and it worked. She handed it to Marx so she could enter her contact info. "I shall warn you that I don't use it much."
"That's okay. I just wanna make sure you aren't murdered or anything," Marx chuckled as she quickly put in her contact info before handing it back. "Sorry to keep you up, I'll let you go to sleep now," she said, turtling a little when she handed the phone back
Luana chuckled some and pocketed her phone. "No worries, and I appreciate your concern for my safety." She offered a small smile and waved her fingers in farewell. "G'night."
"G'night," Marx said, giving her a little wave as she walked off, going to change into her own pajamas and get some rest before the inevitably long day ahead of them

(That works for me)
(aight. should they skip to when Luana gets back?)
(That works. Who's starting?)
