The girl seated on the bunk in front of him refused to move her hand, so
Blink reached up and moved it himself. He winced when the deep cut came
into view, wordlessly he pulled her off the bed and into the washroom.
"And he said somethin' bout anotha knife wound?" Blink asked, leaning back from her face. Annalise, now Honor, stared back at him, almost defiantly.
"I'se fine..it's not too bad" she said. Blink laughed slightly at her stubborness. He leaned back and glanced at her shoulders, then reached out and gently brushed his hand against her right arm. She winced and then glared at him.
"I'll touch it again if ya don't let me help ya" he said. Honor glared at him for a moment longer before rolling her eyes and lowering the shoulder of her blouse. Blink's smile disappeared as he slowly unwrapped the hastily bandaged wound.
"Not too bad? Honah..dis looks real ugly" he said quietly, cleaning out the best way he could without hurting her further. Honor laughed slightly. "Gee t'anks Blink..you'se really got a way wit woids" she commented, watching as he re-wrapped it. Blink stood and grabbed some of his pants and a shirt for her.

"Didya have any luck?" Bottle Cap's voice filtered over them a few minutes later.
"Yeah..me and Honah are in heah" Blink called back. Bottle Cap appeared in the doorway of the washroom, a puzzled look gracing her face. "Honah?" she asked.
"Yeah..Honah..dats 'er new name" Blink replied, smiling as Bottle Cap worked it out in her head.
"What're we tawkin' about?" Honor asked, coming out of one of the stalls, one hand holding up the pants that Blink had given her. Bottle Cap burst into laughter at the sight.
"What? Dey'se just a bit big.dat's all" Honor stated, laughing as well as she struggled to keep the pants from slipping out of her grasp. Bottle Cap was still giggling as she crossed the bunkroom and pulled a pair of suspenders out from her under her bed. She held them out to Honor triumphantly.
"Recognize dese?" she asked, her eyes sparkling.
"Me suspendahs..i'se was wonderin' wheah dey had gone ta..ya stole 'em.didn't ya?" honor cried, playfully hitting Bottle Cap. Blink observed this exchange fro the side, watching as Honor slipped on the dark green suspenders.
"Do ya 'ave yer hat?" Bottle Cap asked. Honor paused to think, then her dark grey eyes darkened to a greenish tint. Bottle Cap backed away, recognizing the look. "I had it when I left.when dey came aftah me.I guess I dropped it" Honor said, sighing. Blink walked over to his bunk and pulled something off his pillow. "Is dis it?" he asked hopefully, holding up a dark green object. Honor's eyes danced excitedly as she took it from him and threw her arms around him.
"T'ank ya" she cried, placing it on her head and grinning.
"And he said somethin' bout anotha knife wound?" Blink asked, leaning back from her face. Annalise, now Honor, stared back at him, almost defiantly.
