Drop it Like it's Hoth (Ariella)

[Cobalt Krell]

I woke up, and yawned loudly, before rolling and falling off the hard thing I was sleeping on, onto an even harder thing that felt like permacrete. Picking myself up a bit, I laughed at my own stupidity. Why was I sleeping on a bench, that was directly above concrete, where I was liable to fall on my face? Clearly, I was a bit hung over, but I still should've been able to remember why...

And then it hit me, similar to how the ground had hit me, only mentally. The bench in question was situated directly in front of the storefront that hid a safehouse... A safehouse that belonged to a certain friend of mine. My drunken brain had to slap itself awake to remember. Ariella. I'd been trying to come visit Ariella. For what? I couldn't remember right then. I just remembered that I wanted to see her, and then had fallen asleep like an idiot, right across the narrow street.

Getting up, I walked over to the front door, knocked on it, and grinned at the thought of the look on her face when I showed up looking like a bedraggled old pirate.

[Ariella Garon]

Just about ready to pick up the pad with her daily news for the reality. Wondering just what if any propriety would catch her fancy on this early morning. Putting the hot tea to her lips. Hearing a knock, as she put down her cup. Giving out a long sight as who could be around this early in the morning after all. Didn't get very many house calls even this time of morning. Grabbing her own blaster as she made her way to the door.

Not being the fool she was she put the comm on "I"m sorry we are closed for business right now, state your business come back later.", as she waited for this one to answer her back. If it was important she would let this one in if he/she was there to make a mess of her morning they would get a few rounds between their eyes. [member="Cobalt Krell"]

I rolled my eyes, and punched the comm again.

"Closed, huh? No matter who it is, Blondie?"

Trying to get my scruffy hair to go back down into something resembling a hairstyle, I finally gave up and put my hat back on.

[Ariella Garon]

Rubbing her one eye, when that voice came across loud and clear. Now it all made since as she pushed the button to open the door. Clearing in the state of herself she wasn't expecting company. Her own eye brow raising to the fact that he seem to have sleep in his clothing. Then the smell coming off him, shaking her head.

"What do I owe the please of your present at this time of the morning.", as she walk back in to grab her silk robe slipping it on.

"Please have a seat, Hot tea.", as she waved to the hot water pot. [member="Cobalt Krell"]

 

[Cobalt Krell]

I just laughed, and poured myself some hot water, just managing to miss my hand with the hot water.

"Well, my beautiful pirate lady, I'm here to kidnap you to Hoth. A nice little day in the snow."

I took off my cognac and blood-soaked jacket, and the smell came off me. I wrinkled my nose, and put it gently on the floor.

"I hate buying new jackets. They never fit the same way as the old ones."

[Ariella Garon]

Raising her eyes up from the cup of hot tea. As she just gave a chuckle only to see that he was serous about talking her to Hoth.

"I see, mmm why not.",not that she could stand the cold or like the snow. At less he wasn't wanting to take her to some how place to get her into any less she was wearing at the moment. Just looked at the jacket, then back up at him.

"Have you heard of cleaning it once in a while.", giving a small smile.

I gave Ariella a joking glare, and then glanced sadly down at the jacket.

"It was dry-cleaned until last night... And then one of the fine young gentlemen who seems to have taken up residence in that bar down the street comes up and shivs me in the chest."

I indicated the rather large tear in my shirt, where the bright young fellow had decided to try and stab through a rib.

"So, that's my blood on the jacket, and his drink on it. Kid's probably resting that broken arm of his somewhere nice and cushy, while I slept on that bench 'cos I can't lie down with the medseal on my chest."

[member="Ariella"]

 

[Ariella Garon]

Looking at him as she made this a reality for her. "Your blood.', as she goes looks at him over top to bottom. Giving a long sigh after which time she got up. So much for enjoying her coffee, as she looked at him. "I'm go get a bowl of water and some batch patches. Off with your shirt.",

As she walked into the kitchen then back with a bowl of hot water and wash cloth. "Well, brave one."

I took off my shirt, exposing the medseal that covered the knife wounds from yesterday. Dropping the shirt next to my stained jacket, I looked at the medseal, which was almost soaked through with blood.

"Off with my shirt, huh? I love how you phrased that."

I tried to pull the medseal off, but it stubbornly stayed there, the adhesive not even close to wearing off.

"Now, how do I get rid of that little bugger?"

[Ariella Garon]

Shaking her head just a little bit, only to have a grin upon her face. As she brought over the supplies she would need. Not that she hadn't done this a few times here and there.

"Lets see, whoa there lets not get in a big hurry...", biting the bottom of her lip as she worked on the matter before hand. Finding herself getting it worked loose after putting some gel upon the wound. Making sure all was ready with the batca patch when she pulled it off. As she worked her fingures being a gentle as she could.

"This might hurt..One. ", she pulled wasn't going to wait for three that way he didn't flinch as bad.

Finding that she had his warm liquied running out as she slapped on the patches. After some moment to make sure it was going to work. There that better at less its not going to get infected or anything. As she set the bowl with the warm water in front of him with towel and wash cloth.

"Now get clean up you like terrible, like you slept on a streets.", giving him a smirk knowing that what he didn't.

I just shook my head, as the pain flared, and then went away when Ariella patched it again. Then I grinned at her.

"You're not far off the mark. I slept on that bench, but I woke up on the street. Probably rolled off."

Picking up the washcloth, and dropping it in the water, I waited for it to soak up some. While I was waiting, I mentally bemoaned the stain that'd gone through my jacket. At least I could fix the knife cut, but the stain was stuck there. Probably for good. Whatever. I just shrugged, and began scraping off the dried blood and dirt on my chest and face.

[member="Ariella"]

 

[Ariella Garon]

Looking at his slow working of the dried blood, giving out a smirk. "That rate we be here all day."

As she found herself over there helping with another wash cloth. Trying to be as gentle as she could, what was it with this one. This giving herself into a chuckling. As she finished up, "Now what did you come to see me for, again."

I grinned up at the beautiful blonde pirate. I was happy when I made Ariella smile. Made the room brighter.

"Well, my lovely pirate, I thought it might be a good idea to bundle up and play around in the snow for a day or two. On Hoth, out of the way of everything."

Grimacing at my ripped shirt and jacket again, I pulled a sleeveless shirt out of my satchel and put it on.
