[Well it looks like some one is finally back. And she's not taking the whole 'I died' thing very well.

If anyone comes looking for her/stumbles across her, they're going to find poor Rina curled up in a corner in the dark infirmary car, crying in to a pillow with her knees curled to her chest.]

[ guess who else is back? and she's sitting next to Rina, trying to rub her back and help her feel better. ]

Yeaaah. It sucks. I know.

[heartofahime]

[Rina hiccups hard, rubbing at her wet face.]

Mhmn...

[broomriding]

[ she reaches over and gives her a hug. ]

Hey ... hey, we're back, all right? And we'll be careful not to let it happen again. What do you say we dry the tears and go see what the guys are up to, hm?

[ she knows it's not helping, but she's trying in the best way she knows how, damn it! ]

[heartofahime]

[Rina appreciates it, Arche]

I-I know... I just... I still feel sick...

[she's already hurked a couple of times and can't seem to get her stomach to calm down. Everyone reacts to being brought back differently, of course, but Rina's body is having to account for bringing herself and Kagusuchi back.]

[Given some time to calm down and think, Ken's had enough time to regret what he said to Zuko.

By no means does that imply that he's given up on wanting very dearly to deal with Mephiles. But it also means that he's more willing to wait for the demon to come to him, instead of the other way around.

All the righteous anger kind of left him shortly after that talk. He found himself merely very tired and miserably guilty-feeling, curled up in an oversized chair in one of the lounge cars, having decided not to move as it'd make it easier for Rina to find him when she came back.]

[heartofahime]

[After leaving Zuko and Arche behind, Rina takes to wandering the cars again, looking for Ken. Unfortunately with the power back on, the cars are changing again.

After about fifteen minutes of walking, Rina starts to feel dizzy and sick again. She plans to stop in the next car and wait for a minute until she can regain her composure, only to stumble across the very person she wants to find.

But of course Ken is sleeping. Rina stops in the doorway, smiling at the sight of him.

Well. Smiling and crying at the same time. But quietly. She doesn't want to wake him up after all.]

[asinheaven]

[sleeping like he really hadn't for the last few days. Ordinarily he wouldn't let himself crash so hard, especially with hostile presences known, but besides being emotionally drained he hasn't really let himself rest at all since the fight.]

[heartofahime]

[stumbling in to the car now, just to flop down next to the chair he's curled up in, tiredly resting her head against the arm.]
