[He still can't sleep.

Cierra, one of Ein's former traveling companions, was an amazing pyrotechnician (though she had other magical talents as well), but magical fire was usually a lot cleaner than what happened to this stranger he'd never met.

Why was any of this happening?]

Useful? Nah, it's just cute. Maybe take your gloves off sometimes?

[She offers a HEARTY CHUCKLE, given as much theatrical emphasis as possible.] Do I have red, he asks!

[The effect is promptly ruined when it takes her a couple of moments to dig the nail polish out of her pocket. It's red, though!]

Tah daaaah! Take a seat and let's get to work.

[ecthelion]

I meant as like, proof that we were here and not... you know. If it came to that.

[He does remove the gloves, though, sitting down on the bed.]

[maege]

Oh. Right. You really put the "aw, man" in "manicure," you know that?

[Regardless!! She stands up and drags both the chair and the table over, takes Ein hand, and sets it flat on the table so she can take her nail polish and get to work.]

Hold still or it'll smudge, and I found polish but not anything to remove it with so that is not gonna fly.

[ecthelion]

Okay.

[It actually is easy to do, he keeps his hands very still.]
