And then get bloody again?

[ she shakes her head, glancing around. that's not what heroes do—not that wanda is one. she doesn't want to go shower when she can help others.

wanda regards him with a cocked brow. ]

Will you go shower? You have blood [ she waves her hand over her face. ] on your cheek.

[rocinantes]

Probably. But I'm not as filthy as you are.

( she needs the shower more than he does. )

These blood things are still gonna be here when you come back if you really wanna get messy again.

[explosion]

[ wanda thinks to ask him what the point of showering is, but she regards him for a long moment before she crosses her arms against her chest and narrows her eyes playfully. ]

You're trying to get rid of me. Why? To have all the blood blisters to yourself?

[ tsk, tsk, amos. that's hardly gentlemanly. ]

[rocinantes]

No. Why would I want these things to myself, Wanda?

( amos makes a face and shakes his head. he's trying to be nice. )

Do you want me to walk with you? I just want you to get cleaned up so you're not completely covered in blood.

[explosion]

[ she thinks to tease him again, but wanda drops it. she tilts her head gently to the side. ]

Does it bother you so much?

[ honestly, it doesn't bother her. it doesn't sting. it feels tacky and thick, but nothing more than that. but wanda's had soot in her hair and in her eyes before. a little blood smeared on her face is nothing. ]

[rocinantes]

What, the blood? No, it doesn't bother me.

( he's been covered in blood enough times to barely blink. it just looks...strange on her when he's never seen look like that before. )

I just don't think you need to walk around like you've bathed in blood.

[explosion]

[ wanda shrugs. ]

When they are gone, then it will be gone from my face.

[ but just for him, her hand glows and she waves it in front of her face. it acts as a face cloth; when her hand completes its arc, her face is clean. ]

[rocinantes]

You're stubborn as hell.

( does she know that? well, amos is gonna tell her. )

And your magic's cheating.

[explosion]

[ wanda smiles toothily at that—and happily so. ]

You said that before.

[ she doesn't appear offended at all. ]

But is it cheating if I do magic for you, too? I think it's incredibly generous. Like giving a gift.

[rocinantes]

It's still cheating, it's just cheating that benefits me.

( which he does appreciate. )

But still cheating.

[explosion]

[ she nods, pursing her lips as she considers his response. but then wanda lifts her hand and points her finger and furrows her brows. ]

But is it bad cheating when it benefits you? I just want to understand the levels of cheating.

[ so she can, you know, cheat. ]

[rocinantes]

I don't know the levels of cheating.

( that's going way too deep into this, wanda. he shakes his head. )

It doesn't matter.
