Welcome to Clean Street [Open!]

Down on the city level, right by the Kohaku River and near the imposing castle, a modern-looking white building welcomed one and all to its promise of running water and warmth. Maybe even a little socializing was in order.

The ramp led up to the heated roof level, where one and all could sit down and relax in an almost sauna-like environment. Below, corridors contained plenty of towels, places to leave clothes, quick showers, and the baths, a number of them sized for any and all comers.

The private areas were accessed through separate corridors on the outside, but the busier communal baths were just as warm and welcoming. Anyone of any size or species was welcome here, so long as they behaved themselves.

[ooc: it's mingling party post time! Just start a thread or hop in one, and note if your character's in a single sex bath, co-ed, or the sauna level upstairs. My characters will be here to meet some people too.]

"It was. I was pretty much forced to fight against my will, and I ended up blacking out afterwords."

Instinctively, her hand moved to clutch at her arm, rubbing it up and down. But, there was a silver lining to this.

"My team... They managed to find me and took me to the hospital so that I'd be okay. If it wasn't for them, I probably wouldn't be here. And... it's not like I'm ashamed for this, either." A sort of sad smile fell on her lips, thinking about the memories that were coming back up to the surface. "It's a badge of courage because I stood up for something that I cared about and got this as a result."

She decided to take her hand off of her arm and show it to Shoutarou, the sad smile still on her face just a bit.

Shoutarou nods, but he can't help but smile a bit at the 'badge of courage' line. "It's funny, I joked with Philip a few times about wounds and scars being badges of manhood..."

He looks over at her arm, then smiles in a similar fashion. "And those you get for fighting for a cause close to your heart, those are ones to be proud of."`

Hoshi couldn't help but let out a small chuckle. "Funny you bring him up. When I first woke up here, it was hard for me to fully move my arm, so he offered to teach me Tai Chi so that I could eventually regain the motion in my arm. It's only thanks to him that I've been able to recover physically and mentally from the battle I was in."

She nodded at his words, thinking that they were wise on their own. "Thank you, Shoutarou. I feel even better showing them off now." To show that she was okay with saying that, her sad smile shifted to her usual cheerful one.

A rather nostalgic smile forms on Shoutarou's face, and he sighs faintly. "That's Philip for you..."

He nods back. "You're welcome."

"Yeah. You really have a good person as your partner, Shoutarou." There might have been a little pinkish hue on her cheeks, but it hopefully wasn't that noticeable.

Shoutarou notes that pinkness, and he can't help a cheeky grin. "Ahaha, what's this? Someone a little sweet on Philip~?"

There was a little squeak coming out of her when Shoutarou said that. "N-No, of course not!"
thisclinchesit: (Pleased)

The grin remains, but he doesn't laugh. "I dunno, you were blushing a little..."

"H-Hidari Shoutarou, if you don't stop--!" She sank underneath the water, bubbles forming. Why did she feel hotter than she should have been in the bath?

Okay, now? Now he was snickering.

In which this made her pout and send a splash right for him. "You're a big dummy head!"
thisclinchesit: (>:O)

[personal profile] thisclinchesit 2011-07-15 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Shoutarou raised his arm, though it didn't do much to block the splash, and promptly retaliated. "Who're you calling a dummy head, high school girl?!"

Hoshi sent another splash right for him, putting some of her strength in it. "You, you half-boiled detective!"
thisclinchesit: (Counting with the Boss)

[personal profile] thisclinchesit 2011-07-15 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"I am not half-boiled, you pipsqueak!" Splash-back, splash-back~.

"I'm the same height as you! Get your facts straight, idiot!" Another splash back.
