012 PACIFY [OPEN]

[icyfeisty]

Mitsuru's concentration has flickered well and truly to perfecting her pastry art, and she's bent over a tray of pastry in her dorm room with extreme focus. The front door is open wide enough to reveal her hobby through the dorm hallway, and she works quietly while with a number of tools for some time before pushing a floppy, failed experiment of

Pooooooooooooooking his head inside.

He doesn't say anything to disturb her concentration, though.

[icyfeisty]

She continues on working for a while, humming quietly and examining her new experiments before carrying a tray to the fridge. With an accomplished sigh, she turns around and spots his face.

"...Just how long have you been there?"

[greekreaper]

"Oh, not long."

He comes in a makes himself comfortable, sitting on the bed.

[icyfeisty]

Mitsuru starts cleaning up the few ingredients left on the counter- she is a clean, orderly cook, so the chore doesn't take long.

"So, what brings you to my room?"

[greekreaper]

Hmmmn. Let's take this slow now.

"Oh, I just, uh, wanted to check up on you. You're doing a lot better..."

[icyfeisty]

She gives a biiiiiig yawn on her way to the bed, sitting beside him and placing one hand on his knee.

"Mm, I think I've recovered quite well. I feel good, most of the time."

[greekreaper]

"Most of the time? Are you still having a couple of withdrawals symptoms?"

Well, it could happen.

[icyfeisty]

"I don't think so. I still want them of course, but other than having an unstable stomach for the last few weeks I've been just fine."

That would be her frequent trips to the bathroom, although her appetite still soldiers on regardless.

[greekreaper]

"O-Oh. I hope they're not too bad."

He said while looking away and looking kind of embarrassed. >_>

[icyfeisty]

She notices his change in demeanour- not that it's hard to tell with the way Thanatos wears his heart on his sleeve. Her hand runs through his hair reassuringly and plays gently with the dark strands.

"I would tell you if they were. Is that what you're worried about?"

[greekreaper]

"Oh, uh, I guess."

...How is he going to articulate...he's never had to do this. Hell, even a lot of GODS never had to do this. It was always just a pleasant surprise.

"Is there...something super special you wanna tell me?" Maybe...possibly...just a bit.

[icyfeisty]

"...No?" She shoots him a skeptical look- is there something he's trying to hint at? Subconciously, her hand comes to a protective rest on her stomach.

"What are you talking about?"

[greekreaper]

"Oh...um. I was just curious."

Lame comeback is pretty lame. :(

"Hey, eh...do you know what the date is today?" And also a lame subject change. Then again, it might help her to jog her memory about certain things.

[icyfeisty]

"The twenty fifth?" She looks confused. So much for jogging her memory, because so far she's been squarely concentrated on him.

"...Did I miss something?"

[greekreaper]

...Ahahahahaha, um, well. Maybe.

"Uhhh. Well...it's nothing. I just noticed the trashcan in the bathroom was pretty empty last week and that's usually when..."

...Yeah there really isn't a tactful way to bring this up, dear. D:

[icyfeisty]

Her expression persists for a while further as she tries to figure out what he means, thinking deeply about that time of the month.

"Well, that would be because I didn't have it."

...It only takes a few moments for realization to blanch her a pale white.

"...Oh, my."
