Katchoo plugged her phone in to charge as soon as she -- Clocky trailing out of kicking range behind her -- got back to her room after work, then headed for the shower. Upon returning to the room, she tossed her towel onto the floor, changed into a pair of sweatpants and paused in front of her closet mirror, staring at her unfamiliar (except for that one day last year) reflection. And the lily-shaped tattoo on her chest, over her heart -- the one that now had an on-island twin in the burn scar Francine had come home with from her trip to Firekeeper's world.

Layers on layers of evasion and lies, now. Francine had no idea why she'd freaked out so much upon seeing that scar, or why she'd taken off to Toronto unexpectedly over the summer, or what had gone down in that jail cell in Baltimore last week. What had gone on in the two intervening years that had passed for her between running away from Houston and coming to Fandom, things that Arthur and Merlin now both had more of a clue about than her own best friend. And now Katchoo was wondering how much Ino might have pieced together, too.

God, she felt tired. Still staring at her reflection, Katchoo tried to trace back through everything to see if there was even a good starting point to ease into the story. (The beginning, maybe, you dumbass.) It was far too easy to get lost in thought this way, and the thoughts weren't, for the most part, fun.

So Katchoo hadn't slept well; no surprise. That was so par for the course, she might have sometimes pondered insomnia handicapping rules if she gave a flying crap about golf. But the unexpected and very -- ow -- rough stubble that greeted her when she finally gave up on attempting to go back to sleep for the 94th time and rubbed a hand over her face instead? That was very much a surprise.

Not a pleasant one. Katchoo staggered up and over to the mirror on the inside of her closet door on legs that didn't feel like they were working right, blinked hard, and . . .

"OH, SONOFA --"

It probably wouldn't have taken a whole lot of effort to hear the yell; the timbre might have been much deeper than usual, but the rasp and pissed-off-ness were exactly the same. Said yell was really not fit to be reproduced in any written form except maybe "@#)(&$(*@#$@!"

Which was about what it sounded like, really.

"Stupid frikkin' island," she snarled, tugging her suddenly too-tight tank top aside to note, with resigned disgust, that the world's dirtiest flower lily tattoo was still there, on her left . . . pec. Gawd. For half a second she considered taking a picture and cropping her head out of the shot, then sending it to L.A., because wouldn't that give Darcy a fit? Except for the part where no, letting Darcy know where she was would be a really, really stupid idea. But the mental image of Darcy's conniption over seeing her brand on a male body . . .

Katchoo was amused -- for all of the half second before the sound of her voice when she snickered pissed her right back off again.

Muttering, she dug through the closet for clothes that would actually fit, mostly because she wasn't dumb enough to break her toes by giving the closet door a good hard kick before she had shoes on. If this was some kind of twisted ploy to get her to take a less pessimistic view of the male gender, it wasn't going to work. Dammit.

[OOC: Establishy, and I go sleep now, but feel free to react to the yelling! Katchoo is David Gallagher because . . . BECAUSE. C'mon, 7th Heaven. And Katchoo. ETA because I forgot to mention last night: Mention of the tattoo NFB, please?]
