Jez takes the pads, wiping off the access blood from around the wound with his shirt. Afterward, he starts to clean the actual would with the pads Gus gave him. Though wincing from pain every two seconds.
He looks up to Gus "oh…she bolted into the main part of the store the second I mentioned food. We should probably check up on her. I doubt she run away" he shrugs, pressing another pad to his wound.
(Gus just autocorrected to God and I don't think I mind XD)
(lol aight)
Jasper woke up to her stomach grumbling at her, she sat up and leaned against the isle rubbing the sleep out of he eyes as she yawned, before letting out a shiver and tucking her arms close. she looked around and realized that she wasn't in the building, and was surrounded by food…before it came back to her, and she moved to get up from the ground, stabilizing herself against the stall. she moved to slowly walk down the aisle, and peek just above the counter at the windows that we have probably broken a long time ago,
where was the man from earlier?…
she looked around once more, still not seeing anyone. she decided to look around for a drink, making her way back to where they held water bottles, she moved to grab a water bottle out of the plastic container and struggle for a few seconds trying to get it open, before managing it open and chugging it slightly before ending up spitting it out because she drank it too fast, which made her drink the rest of it slowly and she didn't spit it out this time, she wiped her mouth with her sleeve.
(oh yeah btw, i forgot to include this in her appearance, but she has like, yarn in her skin, like that one character from tokyo ghoul, above her lip, and on her fingers and her wrists.like him https://images.app.goo.gl/C52KijRMGnmQio1B8 https://images.app.goo.gl/YYLJdbAA4Vi8NQEy5)
(I knew exactly what you were meaning when you said the thread in her skin. I love Juuzou)
(lol should i edit my post lol)
(That's fine you don't have to change it. Though you said she went back to where they held the water. Did you mean where they were?)
Gus tilted his head, hearing a faint scuffling in the other room. "Sounds like she's still around, anyhow. I wanna get your arm taken care of first, but after that maybe we can talk to her and find out who she is. That's if she don't come find us first." He hoped she was friendly, after all that. He would have his hands full if she decided to threaten them now, and anyway he didn't want to fight her if he could avoid it.
Jez felt close to the same way, though he wasn't as trusting still. He automatically assumed she was going to steal their belongings and dip. Either that or try to kill them.
He tried not to think about it, his mind already wondering how he would stop her without killing her.
He looks back to Gus from wherever the soy d was coming from "thanks. By the way" he says with a small, lighthearted chuckle. He was thankful no saliva got into his cut or else they'd have a whole other problem.
i should probably tell Gus about that shouldn't I….
He decided to not stress him out any more than he already was. He would tell him later..
Elodie nodded and gave a small smile, she turned towards Jesse, her mouth went dry.
"Its okay, I know tone is a problem for some people, its never been a problem for me, but that doesn't mean that it isn't a problem for anyone else." She said quietly.
She wrapped her arms around Jesse's shoulders slightly, and quickly pulled away. Her eyes avoiding Jesse's.
She then walked to the kitchen window, looking out it briefly.
Jesse's eyes widen for a second at her touch, not knowing whether or not to pull away.
She decided not to, letting her pull away as quickly as it happened.
Not used to physical affection, she stands there as Elodie left, her chest tight.
what was that for? Does she think I'm sad? I don't understand
She thought, confused as she stood there for a bit longer.
Though she eventually follows her to the kitchen, looking her up and down as the girl looks out the window.
She pulls her eyes away from Elodie to look in the cabinets.
"You got any alcohol? I've only got beer" she grumbles, her face heating up from slight embarrassment.
that's weird. Don't talk to her after she hugged you
(Jesse is….not used to this :)
Gus blinked and looked up. "Huh? Oh this. Naw, y'ain't gotta thank me fer this. I'm only makin' up for sending you into that burnin' house." Disinfecting the needle, he threaded it and took a breath. "Watch th' door in case that girl peeks in, okay? I'll try not to poke too hard."
Elodie turned around giving her a slight devilish grin and nods, she goes to the cabinet, opens it and pulls out a bottle of vodka and Hennessy.
She sets the on the counter
"take your pick." She says to Jesse, motioning to the bottles with her hands, she gets out two clear drinking glasses, and set them on the counter in front of the bottles, she opened the cap of Vodka and poured herself a small bit, picking it up and sipping it, pulling the cup away from her, she made a sour face.
(That's fine you don't have to change it. Though you said she went back to where they held the water. Did you mean where they were?)
(Like, into the back of the shop, if that's where they are then yeah, like where they hold case waters)
(Right now the boys are in the staff-only room, which I think is a bit different from what you're saying?)
(Are they like, in the back area of the store behind a door?(that rhyme though) like that way i could maybe have jasper explore the store, and then see the door and try and go in maybe)
(Right now the boys are in the staff-only room, which I think is a bit different from what you're saying?)
(Yeah lol that answers my questions)
Jez nods "don't kill me and we're good. I can take the pain," he says, though still plenty nervous. He was trying to hide it but he was failing.
"I wonder if she'll come in anytime soon" he asks, his eyes focusing on the door.
-
"Hah!" Jesse laughs, her voice a bit louder than necessary.
She takes the vodka and fills the cup to the brim before downing it, letting it burn her throat.
"Veak" she jokes, though making a face at the same time. Her German accent replacing any w's with V's.
she heard voices the farther back she got into the store, but one of them sounded somewhat familiar.
the guy from earlier… she carefully approached the spotted door, seeing it shut but hearing multiple voices coming from the room, once she got to the door she went to the side of it, so her figure didn't cast a shadow under the door frame, she moved to just sit and listen to them talk from outside the door, pushing it into the room just a smidge.
Gus heard the door twitch, just slightly, but that was all. Focusing on his work, he spoke clearly so his voice carried into the next room. "Well I hope she shows up, 'cause we can't eat all these chocolate bars by ourselves. Besides, I wanna make sure she's okay. I never got a good look at 'er but it seemed like she's had a rough few weeks—or even longer." As he spoke, he started stitching up the largest cut on Jez's arm, going steadily but efficiently and trying to add as few stitches as possible.
(Jasper: whats chocolate-)
(This girl needs a hug and the biggest chocolate bar I can find TvT)
Jez tries to keep himself from tending his arm up and jerking it away every time the needle slid through his skin. Though it hurt even more when the fishing line pulled through the already irritated skin. Giving him the most uncomfortable feeling. Though it wasn't as bad as the one time he has stitched up with strings from a deconstructed rope.
He looks at Gus in confusion, wondering why he was talking differently.
"Uh…I mean I guess we can't?" He says confused, already have forgotten about watching the door.
Though to be fair he was getting his arm stitched up. He couldn't help but focus on that.
"I've got some snickers she can have too if she wants. I wonder what food she likes…" He says, trying to get his mind off if his wound.
"I reckon she'd take just about anything, judgin' by how skinny she looked." Gus paused to clean off his needle again, he continued to speak in the hopes that it would also keep Jez's mind off the pain. "You didn't see anybody else in that house, did you? She didn't mention any friends or family she wanted t' find?"
