Take advantage of her; I think it is just how she knows how to do friendship… which kind of hurts. But, you have seen her in action. Strong, bold, decisive. People being nice to her is just a blind spot I think.”, and you just snuggled up into Emmys chest. “And she is now caught up in our bullshit; being kind is the least we can do. She is strange but so are we, Em.”
“Yeah. I suppose if we are all going to die or something, some kindness and respect is the least she deserves. Just wanted to get it out; it kinda stung around my little snowflake here.”, and Emmy put her hand over your shirt and pressed right on the shard of ice… one she had as well, to a lesser degree. “It was just the idea we were doing something bad to her. But? She can be our new sister. We will take care of her. Help her when we can. Yeah. We can do that. Night, Jenn. Love you?”
“Love you, Emmy.”

You went ahead and slept in pretty late the following morning… apparently even Aubrey did as well since even after getting Emmy up and knocking on Macy’s door, she was still just then getting some coffee from the little kitchenette in PJs with multicolored cats printed all over… with her gun belt on. Of course. She at least seemed a little more like her normal self today, smiling and not having to phone it in. A cuppa for you and the other Brits along with Hilda later, you and your little coterie plus the German girl went off to shower off some; you had though to maybe ask the long haired girl if she wanted to join you in the library but was informed she and Carl were heading into town with Anna and Chris so she could get her nails and hair done, pick up some supplies they had neglected to bring. Go on her little practice date with Tim.
She did opt to shower with you and the others and it was getting frankly annoying how everyone except <span class="mu-i">maybe</span> Macy had a bigger chest than you; Hilda’s had to be large C’s for Merlin’s sake! Not that you were really complaining too much when you got to see them and help wash her hair some but… maybe you needed to drink some extra milk and start massaging yours or something?
Towards the end, the German girl with huge knockers quipped that it was impressive that Aubrey was okay being around people nude without a weapon nearby, and you laughed out loud as ‘Brey pushed a few tiles on the wall and had a little panel rotate around to reveal a small pistol and spare mag attached to the back and sealed in a plastic baggie.
Yes. Aubrey had a shower gun.
