As she lie there, she thought she heard footsteps shuffling quietly in the hallway. Glancing up lazily, she saw someone poke their head into the room. The sound of Arddra's voice confirmed the presence of another, and Casa languidly waved her in. Company was as welcome as anything else, and it was another girl, not one of the many men around the Weyr, and not one of the froofy ones.
"Course there's room for two. I'd be a hog to take up the whole tub, and the water's freshly pumped into the room, still hot enough to scald your skin right off." As she lie in the water, a concerned squeak came from above her. Peering up, Knack had popped in and sat on a high shelf, looking down at her owlishly. She giggled and clicked, and he winged down lightly, landing on the edge of the tub and bobbing to Arddra before curling up on the edge, one paw on her shoulder. His eyes slid shut as he trilled in enjoyment.
"Hope you don't mind...Knack doesn't like to be left alone, even when there is a whole bed full of furs to nestle in." She left her thoughts drift to the other two, who responded sleepily, flashing her a picture of being wound around one another. "It'll be just him, Kaylee and Edge are contently asleep and have no interest in bathtime for now." She stroked his head as the other girl climbed into the tub. "Couldn't sleep either?"
