[fair enough, she doesn't argue further - something about a no-nonsense blonde that reminds her of home. she has to close her eyes, lost for a second, and then immediately open them again. rosamund is vastly preferable to look at over everything she imagines when she's left to her own devices.
as rosamund cleans, she'll find black scales under some of that blood. they look a bit like snake scales, and they change colors, rippling from white and teal to pink to a deep red, and then back to the teal. it's a very familiar teal, almost light green, reminiscent of a certain cleric's robes.]

You can do whatever you'd like. [she'll let rosamund take care of her if she wants! i will release you from this thread your poor inbox]
