This… just came to me. It takes place during the third episode of the Second Gig, and I couldn't help but wonder what the Major had to do to get her hair like that. I'm probably going to do some other things with this episode; fairly ye be warned.
Batou glanced over at the major from his seat as she came out of the bathroom, still only half dressed from her shower. She sighed. "What?" he rumbled, "Already tired of tracking this guy down?"
She shook her head, water droplets falling from her hair to sprinkle the carpet around her. "It isn't that," she said, sitting down at the desk in the apartment they were sharing for the job, "it's what I have to do that I object to, mostly." She picked up a brush and began to run it through her hair, frowning.
"Huh?" Batou said, surprised, "What, suddenly having a guilty conscious after all these years in section nine?
"No," she answered immediately, and rose, leaning over Batou to grab a large bottle of hair gel. She glowered at it for a moment before squeezing a large dollop into her hand and beginning to work it through her hair. "I just really hate what this stuff is doing to my hair."
Batou paused, one eyebrow skeptically raised. Then, seeing that she was perfectly serious, he threw back his head and laughed.
