Second Floor Boys Bathroom, Sunday after the return

[willbethenight]

Bruce lived on the fifth floor. This was only the second. Bruce didn't care. It was the nearest set of showers for him to wash off the stink of sweat, filth, human blood (mostly not his), and grenade launcher exhaust. It had been a long weekend. Residents of the second floor were just going to have to deal with his trespassing

Shocking how Clark also lived on the fifth floor. Since Bruce had the closest shower, he grabbed the next, ready to stop stinking of rotting flesh and gunpowder.

"...that song's never gonna be the same."

"It'll be a long time before I see the Nutcracker again," Bruce said. "How did you do in that last fight?"

[redandblueblur]

"I managed," Clark shrugged, thinking he should've done more to stop people from ending up with hooks through them. "Glad there seemed to be healer-types waiting when we returned." Not that he'd needed them.

Bruce probably did need a healer for a lot of the hits he took over the past few days. He would never admit that or go to one, though. He'd just deal with it. "I wonder if they were prepared for that or if the healers just reacted quickly. It probably doesn't matter, but I want to know what happened while we were gone."

Peter broke the trend, since he only lived on the fourth floor.

However, he also needed to get the hell out of itchy, disgusting dead people's clothes and was in desperate need of a shower.

He stood under a showerhead and just let the water pass over him a moment.

"Think I'll get in trouble if I just... start those clothes on fire on the roof?"

"I think they'll understand. Just make sure you have a fire extinguisher just in case," Bruce said. "How are you doing?"

"Raven patched me up," Peter said, gesturing at his healed shoulder. "I have no idea how she did, and right now I don't even care if it was magic. I'd kiss her for it if I didn't think it'd get me punched by that Andy guy."

"Good call," Bruce said. "You've had enough people trying to hit you recently. No reason to provoke someone."

"If you've used the second floor's hot water up, I'll kill you all," Ben said tiredly as he stepped into an available shower.

[willbethenight]

"If we did, there's a few more floors to try," Bruce pointed out.

[momslilassassin]

"Yeah, but I live here and I'm not going up another step," Ben said. "I might just sleep in here."

That sounds comfortable.

[willbethenight]

"I'd guess you'll be more comfortable in your bed," Bruce said. "So where did you end up?"

Leia poked her head in. "The girls showers aren't working," she said, totally modding them. "Hurry up unless you want me to come in there, too."

She was that desperate for a shower, yes.

[momslilassassin]

Ben shrieked like a girl. "AUNT LEIA GO AWAY."

Because after the trauma after the last few days, this was what sent him over the edge. Skywalkers.

Leia rolled her eyes. "It's not like it's something I haven't seen before, Ben," she said. "I bet I changed your diapers when you were a baby."

[momslilassassin]

"That is NOT HELPING," Ben yelled back.
