Miranda, Miranda, she had to be cleaned of every, last spot of dirt, prettied up before she was sent off to die a bloody, messy death in the heat of battle

Just when they were actually in the process of getting somewhere with Sasuke! Sakura huffed and refused to acknowledge her nurse as she chattered on about the boys en route to the showers, so afraid that she would punch the woman she she actually spoke to her that she just kept that mouth clamped firmly shut.
Finally left alone, or least out of that stupid cow's hands, Sakura stripped down and stepped into the water, grumpily setting to the task of scrubbing herself down before dinner.
Showers? But Rhode even avoided baths, running from the Earl every chance she could get.
Then she noticed that with these kinds of showers, you were supposed to take them together! A grin spread over her mouth before she realized. Taking showers together meant that she'd get to see Allen Walker, and that Allen Walker would get to see her...
...and they'd both be nude...!
Oh the fun she could have with that! Off went the clothes and in she went, ready for some fun. Fun that abruptly came to a halt. There were only women in here!
"Hey, where's Allen!?" She shouted, picking out no one in particular to decide to fuss at. Things hadn't been going her way all day! First her powers and that stuff with the needles, then the brat from the game room, Allen's lying, and that blonde girl...! Why couldn’t' Rhode just have her powers, take Allen and be done with it?! "You!" she called, pointing at random to someone with oddly pink hair. "Why isn't Allen here?!"
As if another patient would know. Rhode's logic was once again at work.
Already having not been in the best of moods, Sakura didn't respond well to some strange girl storming up to her and demanding to know where some boy (at least she assumed the girl was talking about a boy) named Allen. The interrogation instantly awakened the kunoichi's Ino-defenses as she donned the Sakura-angry face.
"How the hell should I know?" she shouted back, being quite the mature one about this entire situation. "I don't even know who 'Allen' is!"
As Rhode was already used to victims people shouting at her, the effect of the pink-haired girl's own shouting didn't get across. The nurses weren't as easy to access here either, so Rhode couldn't try again at getting someone else in trouble. She had no intention to anyway, she was too annoyed over Allen Walker's absence.
Instead, she followed after the girl's second statement. "He's short with white hair, and has this curse over his left eye, and a shriveled red left arm." Which would have been really easy to spot in a place like this. "He's really cute too
( ... )
Sakura's face softened once she realized that this girl was probably just as lost as most of them were here. Of course, it stil didn't justify walking in and snapping at someone so far as she was concerned, but it made the action all the more understandable considering.
"Well, no, I don't think I remember seeing him, but there are a lot of people here. So that's not all that surprising," the girl admitted, trying not to seem as loud and overbearing as she had a moment ago. Still...
"You might want to be careful about just running around yelling at people you don't know, though. There are a lot of people here who aren't nearly as nice as I am," Sakura felt the need to warn the younger girl. "But don't worry so much. I'm sure he's fine, and you'll see him later. I just got separated from the only people I know too."
Rhode had to notice the change in the girl's tone when it came, despite having all but ignored her earlier shouting. Rhode could hear "nice" when it happened; she was attuned to it. Probably a lingering effect from when she'd had her Noah abilities. She really missed being able to openly read others' hearts. Or she'd been stalking after Allen Walker for so long that his "type of kindness" was easily recognized. The presence of it just shone right on through.
So, how best to deal with this Allen Walker-type-of-kind girl...?
"But... I don't like being by myself..." she said slowly, deciding to go more for "Catherine" opposed to the true Rhode Camelot. Rhode was learning fast that this mental institution place - had Allen told her it's name? - required a good deal of tact. Noah tact in the non-Noah fashion. She could handle that - she'd done so many times before. "I want Allen..."
And the best part, none of what she said was actually a lie. Rhode honestly did not like being alone. Whether it was Akuma, or victims, or family, or even
