Day 88 - late morning

[amazing_am_i]

Bert wasn't really happy about the interaction with Yuuri the night before, mostly because he didn't get to pound his face in, but he did get a few snarky words in, so he felt pretty good about that. His face didn't really hurt after a while from where Yuuri hit him

Things were slowing down. People were healing. Gisela was having trouble tracking down Wolfram to see if he was resting like he was supposed to, and she was concerned he wasn't following orders again. But most others were recovering well. Even Julia, who she was told was sitting up on her own now, and even made demands to eat on her own (though her arms were burned and she had trouble holding a spoon).

She was on her way to the library when she spotted Bert in the hall. Her pace slowed as she drew near, and she smiled. "Hey." She glanced at the paintings, and back at him. "Do those interest you?"

Gisela! He turned with a bright smile and took her face into his hands and kissed her.

"Hey babe," He slipped an arm around her. "Not in particular, but since I can't read anything, I can look at pictures. You done workin'?

She put her hands over his and rose up into the kiss, then leaned against him when his arm went around her.

"Ah. I see. They are nice pictures." She smiled. Though his question was difficult to answer. "I was going to do some research..." It wasn't vital, however. She sighed. "I suppose I can put it off a while..."

"Yeah, nice. Who are these guys anyway?" A few looked a bit bloody and whatnot, but the artwork looked good. And the people painted in them were pretty attractive, compared to some of the weird things he'd seen when drug through museums at home. But her putting off work had a nice ring to it.

"Yeah? But if you want, you can do some reasearch on me. I'll be your gineua pig." He grinned and squeezed her a little tighter.

That took longer than he hoped, but now he could deal with easier things. He lightly ran his hands over her shoulders and gave her a quick kiss with an approving grunt before getting the rest of his own clothes off and tossed aside. He was thankful he didn't have the boots she had to deal with, but at the same time hated that she had difficult clothing. She looked good in it, but damn was it a pain.

While he removed his clothes, Gisela found a nearby bench so she could sit and pull off her boots. It was also a good place to fold up her uniform so it wouldn't get wrinkled and dirty. She removed the rest of her clothes, and was glad the baths were always heated and the so the air was thick and warm. As she stood, she yanked the tie out of the end of her braid, and made her way toward the water.

Berts clothes were balled in a basket, but he made sure to take enough time so he wasn't leering at her finish undressing.

He followed her into the bathing area reaching out to help undo the braid while walking. Her hair was such a stark contrast against her pale skin, but just added to her beauty. With her around, it was nearly impossible to keep his hands to himself.

It didn't take much for the loose braid to fall apart into large, messy waves. She shook her head and ran her hands through it a few times. Smiling over her shoulder, she reached back for his hand and moved down the steps into the water. Being much shorter, it might have been better if he went in first, but it wouldn't matter in a moment.
