Only children (closed rp)
Carolineâs heartbeat rose when K2 seemed to panic and she quickly shot her hand away after a moment, seeming to be almostâŚnervous. âOh dear, Iâm very sorry if that startled you⌠I justâŚuhhhâŚâ There was a moment of the woman rambling off a few reasons to explain why she set her hand on K2s knee, before deciding to give up on explaining entirely. It had just been meant as a kind gesture.
ââŚIâdâŚlike to apologize to you. I know what happens in this facility and the accident earlierâŚit should not have happened. With these new hands, things will be differentâŚbutâŚâ She reached over to grab the folder with her paperwork in it, flipping through it quickly and glancing at some sections of text.
âYou have been granted permission to rest for this week and IâŚIâm going to personally check in on you.â The folder closed and she put it back on the table, before crossing her hands on her lap, almost nervous. ââŚI want to help. If there is anything you need during this time, please let me know.â
K2, however, after recovering from the embarrassment of making such a careless mistake as to openly gawk at a scientist, didnât seem too startled. Â If anything, Carolineâs new, unusual attitude was a bit of a distraction from her current situation, which she subconsciously appreciated. âR...Really?â Â Quietly, the ALPHA unit spoke up, tilting her head ever so slightly in confusion. Â Not only was it bizarre to have someone apologizing to her, K2 seemed genuinely surprised, if not uncertain, at the idea of having the rest of the week off. Â âLike... really off? No morning training?â For the first time since she had met Caroline, 157 seemed to be ever so slightly calmer, actually able to speak without completely hiding her face or mumbling it out under her breath. Â Her eyes still looked slightly damp- unshed tears still needing to either fall, or be blinked away- but her head had been raised, and her body posture, while still curled up, relaxed just the tiniest bit.
