Rhode didn't want to have to let go of Allen, not ever. It could be forever before she was able to be with him again! But the nurses were persistent in moving her off the big yellow thing, as was Allen for getting away from her. Even outside of the building, people were just determined to keep her from being with him! It wasn't fair

He didn't move once he was off the bus. Despite being informed there was a great deal to do - and given some bits of parchment that would apparently allow him to partake of said fun - he didn't want to do anything until he had Shadow right there with him.
And had made sure Keman and Shana were alright.

Still feeling awkward and uncomfortable in the skirt and sweater her nurse had given her, she smoothed her fingers down over the soft fabric, unconsciously straightening it, wishing it were longer - wishing it were breeches or at least something similar - even as she cast a glance around at the disembarking patients for a familiar face.
Long red hair falling about her face in disarray, she was completely unconscious of the sight she made. Not that she'd comprehend that even if she did know.

Valyn couldn't help but be taken aback by Shana's appearance. He didn't think he'd ever seen her in female clothes before. It was...disorienting. And didn't help to soothe the unease that his conversation with Shadow on the 'bus' had brought about.
He couldn't help but tug on the hem of his own dark red tunic to straighten it, feeling uncomfortable already.
"Ah. Are you alright? I only ask because the ride down made Shadow a bit ill, and you aren't looking in fine health yourself. Not to say you look poorly, of course. You just.... How was your ride down?"
Reply
"I didn't see any of you on the... thing, and I didn't know how easy it would be finding any of you once we got here. And yes, the ride left quite a bit to be desired. I would have rather rode down on Keman."
She was babbling, but that was more to do with the picture he made in these people's foreign clothes than anything else. She reminded herself not to stare. He got annoyed when she forgot and started staring. And she wanted to try and get through at least one day without annoying him.
As difficult as she found that most days...

"At least the fresh air should agree with you." He smiled. "Ah, I was on that one, with Shadow. I didn't spot Keman anywhere, he must have been on the other." He did notice how she was looking at him, how could he not? But that didn't mean he needed to be a donkey about it.
He would talk to her, just as he'd promised.
"At least we aren't running about in those thin uniforms. I've never liked the cold very much. And I can't complain about the clothing. Skirts suit you, oddly enough."

He spotted Val talking to a pretty red head in a skirt. It was a strange sight to see Valyn talking to a girl with an almost easy smile on his face. That must mean the woman had to have been...
Shadow whistled as he approached, looking at Shana approvingly. "Look at you in a skirt," he smiled, hoping he wasn't as pale as he felt. "I'd say these strange clothes work well for you. Too bad we can't all say that." He tugged his jacket over his thin t-shirt, shivering. It was a bit chilly and he almost wished he had a heavier shirt then the thin white one he was wearing.

Then she gave a squeak of surprise as she was lifted off her feet and twirled in a tight circle. Laughing, she tried to wriggle free, her cheeks turning a deeper shade of red as she hoped her skirt hadn't flown up as far as it had felt it did.
"Keman, put me down!" she protested in embarrassment. "Blame the nurses. This respectable thing is overrated anyway. As if having bared legs is appropriate dress for a chilly day!"
She hoped someone would change the topic of conversation before her face got any redder. She wasn't used to their attention being focused fully on her.

"It is something of a shock," he pointed out. "You wear it well, Shana. And come now, Shadow. You hardly need clothes to look fetching." He tucked his thumbs into his pockets, standing with an unconscious grace that harkened back to his elven training.
"I suppose we should start exploring early, to get as much done as possible," he pointed out.
Reply
Hello, that was Shana's leg...
Shadow shook his head, clearing his thoughts. "Yes, exploring," he said, nodding at Valyn. "How were we splitting up again?"

Still she was inexplicably pleased by their compliments, and smiled at the three boys, cheeks a light red as she tucked a stray curl behind her ear. "Thank you for that, at least."
Not really caring how they split up, as long as they got something accomplished, she tucked her hands behind her back, shifting comfortably as she glanced between them, content to let someone else make this particular decision.

He glanced at his cousin and winked, feeling much more relaxed as he stepped up to a leadership position. "I think my dear cousin here is simply feigning a lapse in memory in hopes of a chance to whisk away the pretty girl in our midst. Though I do have to ask... what exactly are some of these vouchers for?" He held up the little booklet of parchment.
"Two of them seem to be for food, one for a massage - I'm not certain how they handle massages on this world - but what are the other two?"
Reply
Shadow looked at the brightly colored slips of paper and shrugged. "Facial and manicure," he said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Well, the one that says manicure has a picture of a ladies hands on it. Perhaps it's some sort of name for the harem here? Strange they would give everyone a voucher, though."

"Aren't manicures and pedicures mostly for females anyway?" she inquired, glancing through the colorful scraps of paper she'd been given. "Why did they give vouchers to you three? At least there's ones for meals as well."
She ignored their ridiculous talk about anyone stealing her away, dismissing it for the joke she was sure it was.
