"I know," Selene gave a slight chuckle at Jasper's smile, not commenting about the worry in his eyes. She hated making him worry and lose sleep, but at the same time he was one of the reasons she continued working as she did. He didn't have to know just how much the demons wanted him dead... Especially the higher ups in the Phoenix Industries. She tried not to frown at this. Did that mean Phynex was the one who was sending all those after him? The demon she knew wasn't the type to do things that way, but if he was the CEO that was feared to be very sharp in business and ruthless, she didn't know. Going back to Jasper, she realized that he was staring at her with that slightly wistful look he never seemed to notice he had. All she could do was whisper, "Well, I want you to rest, the two of us getting down at the same time wouldn't help any," as she also squeezed back gently, closing her eyes as she felt him pat her.
"The smell?" She smirked, violet eyes glinting with amusement. "I'm pretty sure I know how you smell since we've known each other since childhood." Well, at least she did. Enhanced senses meant she could tell more about him and his mood if she focused, instead of just relying on watching body language and facial cues. "Besides, you don't smell half-bad since you're not the one running out and about, Jasper. I'm sure the ladies don't mind, at least," Besides the dirty clothes, that is. There were times when he could still be a bit lazy, but that happened with everyone. She just sighed a little when he helped her up, letting him hold her. "I can stand up," she said, but softened her tone at the end. Standing up and ignoring the soreness all over, she smiled softly. "Now if I get that break we can find another day to spend together." With their outing ruined, she wanted to make it up to him at some point. She probably should make sightings of herself scarce for this week and a bit more, with what happened, so... "I can even let you cling to me if we can have those horror movie marathons of yours."
Heading over to the bathroom, she pulled at the shirt a bit more, pulling it down to cover her thighs. It was one of Jasper's nightshirts, it seemed, since he rather liked them loose and long too, reminding her of when he was younger in those funny bear print pyjamas with the long sleeves. "I'll take a quick shower and if you really insist, then we'll just replace the bandages," she said over her shoulder, before closing the door with a click as it locked. Well, this room really did smell of Jasper. He had a woodsy scent, if that was how to describe it, of leaves and trees, and a slight hint of mint to it. Then the masculine scent of his body wash, shampoo, and cologne, and other hygiene materials all somewhat haphazardly placed by the sink. She shook her head, sometimes Jasper was a bit too hurried to get to work. She would be borrowing his body wash and shampoo for now. With only a bit of wincing as she peeled the bandages off after taking off her clothes, she stared at herself in the mirror. There still bruises but they were already healing and the cuts, most of the damage that caused her to lose consciousness was probably from hitting her head a few times and being hit about repeatedly. She sighed slightly and went to clean herself, the washing may sting a bit but she really wanted to clean off the lingering smell of the disgusting breath the monster had. Despite being faint, she could still pick out the repulsive scent.
