MAEA
Well, Maea was glad for that too. Because if she hadn't been, she wouldn't have made it home for the night, nor been standing in the bathroom with Sunjata peeling her clothes off. It hit her all the harder when they got her tacky breeches off, and she saw the large contusion that stretched along the side of her leg, from hip almost all the way down to the knee. It was dark purplish in color, and in places blood had pooled under the skin to form black blisters. From the ice, as much from the manta, she supposed, and gritted her teeth against the pain of even touching anything near the abused area.
She was busy examining it to see if anything would begin to actually bleed, when Sunjata spoke again, his face turned away from her. Maea straighened with a shocked look; the suggestion she thought he tried to make was like a blow to the stomach. As did the tone; she swallowed. Torn between annoyance - was he in any position to call her reckless? - and pain.
"... yes. Of course it does. Sunjata, I..." But she didn't know what to say, and the words caught in her throat.
