[This realm is one of dreams and it certainly appears that way. Many of the living creatures don't stir from their slumber even as the newcomers pass them by. A gentle rain can be heard, but rare is it that the droplets fall close enough to the earth to muddy the path laid out before them.

The wounded have been brought into a clearing with a low hanging canopy that provides a cool shade while the healers themselves work on grinding a mixture of freshly-picked flowers and decaying leaves. There's a spring nearby that provides fresh water, which is cupped into large leaves to drink out of.

Straying from the clearing proves to be... interesting. Vines as wide as cars hang from the gargantuan trees above. Brightly-colored flowers of all sizes shoot up from the thick undergrowth, and some of them close up shyly as you approach. Others bear sweet fruit, though picking the flowers themselves is highly discouraged.

Somewhere near the center of this jungle, there is a gentle, mossy hill. It looks as if a dragon might have made her bed here, and recently at that.

Morpheus sits against a tree looking rather tired, his fur cloak pulled tightly around his shoulders so that only his nose and ears stick out.]

Who else is going to tell us where the showers are? You going to go ask Sleeping Beauty instead?

[Yes, Rose had already come up with a name for their Aspect.]

....

[Maybe he should ask who she means, but another question has been bothering that he feels he should probably ask instead.]

Just...what do you mean by showers, anyway..?

[Coming to a complete stop, Rose turns to stare at him.]

You've got to be kidding.
ninjacques: (just a bit sheepish)

[This is the face of one who does not kid very much.]

No, seriously, you don't know what a shower is? How did your people get clean quickly?

Baths take time. Showers are faster.

[how to explain this to some backwater hick?]

Think... concentrated rainstorm in small enclosed space. No need to wait for the water to fill up like you do with a bath.

...what if they don't have such a thing here?

[it'll be HORRIBLE]

Then... you're going to stand guard by a stream and make sure no one comes near until I'm done.

[At least he's reasonable about such a request. It seems more sensible than asking about showers.

Jacques gives a tiny nod.

[To him. Rose would rather just kick Morpheus awake to get directed to showers. But, she decided she'd give in and let him sleep. JUST THIS ONCE.]

I think there was a stream this way.

[And she heads off away from the clearing into the jungle-forest. She wanted to get far enough away that she didn't think anyone would randomly wander by while she was washing herself in the stream but not too far away.]

Okay. This looks good. You go stand over there. [she points to a spot] And keep watch for people. Do not look back this way. Be a gentleman.

[A lot of trouble they've gone through to look for a place to bathe, but at least it seems Rose is finally settled with where to do so. She'll get another nod at her directions, and Jacques will walk over to the spot appointed him to keep watch.]

[Rose is as quick as she could be, but as she wasn't used to bathing in a stream, it took her longer than she wanted. She also kept shooting glances to make sure Jacques wasn't turning back to get a glimpse of her.

Once done, she emerged clean - well cleaner than she was before.]


Thanks.

[Jacques is true to his word...or...not-word, as it were. He remains vigilant, and never once does he even think to spare a glance over his shoulder back to where Rose is.

It's only once she's finished and speaks up that he looks over again.

...you're welcome.

[Whereas she's glad he was a gentleman and didn't look, it made her wonder since she knew she was attractive. And, okay, maybe she was a little bit upset, but it didn't show.]

Time to get back and see what's up with our dragons. I feel much better.

[ooc: want to leave this here?]
ninjacques: (<_<)

[personal profile] ninjacques 2014-04-07 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods. That seems like the next most reasonable thing to do, after all.]

((OOC: Okay, that works.))
