Ariel touched the top of George's head as he draped around her neck for comfort. She didn't go anywhere without him now, not since the last attack on her tent. It seemed that the ghost only visited her when she was alone, so despite her desire to just curl up, despite the knowledge that she might be bringing other people into danger, she tried to do her best to not stay alone.

She spent a lot of time in the kitchens, but her shift had ended and she knew he'd been neglecting some of her other friends out of fear of the ghost. Holding a thermos full of stew, she went to see if she could fix that.

"Mika?" She spoke softly as she entered the med tent, looking tired and lonely and haggard. She just hoped that Mika wasn't too busy and she wasn't being a bother.

Mika had been working hard. Too hard. She honestly felt a little sick as she pushed herself up from her previous position- facedown on the desk for a quick nap. There had been too many people coming in. Too many going out- she hadn't slept properly in days.

The young doctor rubbed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose, scrolling through a mental check and ignoring the small bandages on her face from the debris of the battle that Havelock had tried to protect her from. Perry was fine now, Elias was ok now, Chase... Chase was an idiot. Nathan would be ok, and Mort- Mortimer was old and still managed to sustain plenty of injury- for the most part everyone that would survive was out harms way now but with Kat and Alei-

The sound of Ariel's voice shook her from her thoughts. She blinked owlishly and turned her eyes to the tent flap.

"Ariel?" she inwardly cringed at the faint sound that she vaguely registered as her voice, "Sup?"

George chirped happily at Mika's hello but Ariel only cringed. She looked so tired. She always worked so hard and here was Ariel ruining her resting time.

"sorry to bug you, but I uh I brought some stew. You havent been at the mess much so. I'll just leave it. I'm sorry I bothered you."

The mess.. When was the last time she had even been at the mess hall, now that she thought about it? It certainly had been a while, she was pretty sure she had gone on Thursday and today it was.. She brushed her hair back behind her ear, brow furrowing.

What day WAS it?

Mika glanced around at the very uneventful medtent. The nurses all knew what to do at this point, and Marcus was probably around here somewhere.... She stood up shakily and wrote a quick note, delegating control to Dr. Richter until she returned, and placed it on the clipboard, then she walked over to Ariel.

"I need some fresh air anyways.." She offered the blonde a small, slightly empty smile as she took the thermos, ignoring how terrible she probably looked. "how're you doing?

Ariel felt a bit better as Mika got up and came towards her. If it was break time, or should have been , then it eased Ariel's guilt at bothering her busy friend.

She was about to respond fine, but then she remembered the last time they spoke and how Mika had gotten upset at her bottling. "I could be worse? The haunting hasn't stopped but I think having George around keeps him away. It's not important. How are you?"

There. No bottling and they. Old move onto more important things. Like getting Mika somewhere peaceful where she could eat and rest.

Mika didn't even bother trying to have some semblance of manners as she straight up drank the stew from the thermos, feeling her stomach almost shift upwards in her body at the mere thought of being filled. She wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and blinked.

"he doesn't attack if you're with someone..?" She yawned. "that's a good thing to keep in mind...mn."

After draining the thermos, she handed it back to Ariel and stretched, cringing as audible cracks made their way up her back to her neck.

"'m... Busy?" She shrugged. "I'm just.. Busy. Yeah." She felt so tired. "Lots of things that needed to be done.."

Ariel took the thermos back, glad that she finished it. When was the last time she ate or rested? "well its good that you got them done then. Means you can rest now, right?"

Resting.

She stopped walking and shifted her weight from foot to foot, shaking her head lightly to clear it from its muddled state. She still had a lot to do- she knew that technically there were other people that could, but it just- she felt more assured when it was she herself who took care of what needed to be done.

"resting.. Mn. Maybe..? I don't... hn."

She shook her head.

"not sure."

"I don't wanna be mean, but you look really tired. Dead on your feet, really." she said softly. "I know you need to work but if you keep working you'll end up there as a patient."

Mika gave a hollow laugh, squinting as her vision actually swam briefly, and stopped walking in an attempt to gather herself. "I.. Yeah. Yeah probably."

She smiled and pinched the bridge of her nose. "probably will end up as a patient there. It's more or less... hm." Then she looked up at Ariel.

"what do you suggest, ri?"

Ariel looked over her friend with a frown. She could see that she needed help, but Ariel couldn't feel sure that anything she did was ever the right thing.

But still, she had to try.

"head back to your tent or uh if you can't sleep there, I know I can't in my tent sometimes you could stay with me. I-it's always different when there's someone else there. "

It took mika a moment to respond as she mulled over what Ariel had told her.

Stay with the blonde? She hadn't gone anywhere near hers and Kat's tent since before the battle, and even now she knew she avoided it like the plague.

Maybe.. maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea.

"...Yeah. I-I'd like that.. I think."

She gave a little resolute nod. She'd stay with Ariel.
