Re: Sitting on the dock of the bay
It was shaping up to be a very difficult morning, made more difficult by people who didn't intentionally spend time together - or was it didn't spend time together intentionally? - being thrown together. Between that, a lack of sleep, and her own demons - now scared off - she didn't really wanna deal with today.
Before Gisela had a chance to respond to the chaos presented by Quinten's innuendo, and as a side note assure that AJ didn't need to go out of her way, Wolf was unexpectedly there with his stone. "I, well, thank you," she states, both grateful and disappointed, though not with him. She accepted the stone, almost dropping it once before catching it again. This momentary distraction keeps her from interceding before AJ throws the stone at Quinn.
Gi didn't get a chance to say anything else as Quinten through down the challenge. She'd shifted towards AJ, intent on stopping her. She mouthed a 'Thank you' to the Deck's second in command.
"Okay, okay," Gi counters before AJ can step up to the challenge offered by Heart. And, she knew AJ would if given half a heartbeat. "If you'll excuse us, Mister Wolf, AJ and I need to go change. Before...," she leaves it unfinished. She grabs the bag from the ground, slips her arm through her friend's and turns the other towards the warehouse. She grabs her cup of coffee with a long-suffering sigh. It wasn't that she didn't trust the others - Chance wouldn't be dumb enough to screw with her and if Wolf had wanted to be a threat, he'd had his chance. She just needed the caffeine to manage a sleepless night and short tempers.
She started leading the other towards the warehouse, arms still linked. "Thank you. I'll need the help," she begrudgingly admits. "Mother has... expensive tastes," she states. "You know how she is. I convinced her to let me wear this as a travel dress. I explained I would change when we arrived, but had never actually intended to do so," she added, speaking of mundane things to distract the other girl.
