Combing the Grid

[Aria]

Aria smiled at the passing emotions in Conner's mind. She wondered what he was thinking about. She could only remember a handful of times that type of emotion had been directed at her. But then perhaps it was not at her either, you could never tell these days.

Aria felt Jensen approaching before he knocked. She smiled softly and nodded her thanks. The world was starting to drown in on her, apartment buildings of such caliber were always emotional high places. It was hard to track down someone in a city full of emotion. Aria took a deep breath and left the door open the crack. Modesty was not one of the qualities breed into the Atharim, she really didn't notice that the door was still open a jar as she took off her pants and inspected them more closely. They were ruined. Blood hardly came out. She wished she'd paid more attention, these were a good pair, not anymore. Aria looked down at her blood crusted legs and sighed.

Aria finished removing her shirt and pulled the clean one over her head then opened the door and walked out "You have a shower? I don't think this with come clean in there."
She indicated the bathroom behind her.
