"'Cause we were quiet."

"Quiet and safe, together."

Nod.

"Love you."

Permalink

"Love you too, River."

Permalink

"Best sis."

Permalink

"That's me."

"But best sis needs to use the washroom, if you can bear to let her go for five minutes."

Permalink

Grumph. "Okay."

Permalink

Cheek kiss. "Be right back."

Ellie disentangles herself and steps out.

River curls up small in her bed for a moment. 

...Then gets up to follow her sister. She thinks she needs the washroom, too, maybe. 

Permalink

It's single-occupancy, but she can have a turn as soon as Ellie's done.

Permalink

Okay. 

She's in there for a while, but does eventually emerge and go looking for her sister. 

Permalink

Sister: is doing some stretches in the small open area in the hold.

Permalink

She goes to clamber up on some crates, get her back to a corner, and watch. 

Permalink

Ellie waves as she switches which way she's bending over.

Permalink

She waves back and then pulls her knees up to her chest, crossing her arms over them and resting her chin on her forearm.

(She's... Possibly some kind of physically uncomfortable, but she can't figure out what.)

Permalink

River's sister is not psychic, so she may have to say something out loud when Ellie finishes stretching and strolls over.

"Hey."

Permalink

"Hey."

She squints at the path down from her perch, then moves from a curl into a crouch - and then springs off, landing smoothly on her feet beside Ellie.

Permalink

"How are you doing?"

Permalink

Shrug. "...Something hurts? Dunno what."

Permalink

"Are you injured?"

Permalink

"...Dunno."

Permalink

"Do you want me to give you an examination?"

Permalink

"...Maybe."

Permalink

"We can go back to the cabin for that."

Permalink

She nods, slowly.
