Casa found the water and silence of the bathing house very pleasant, until another noise caught her attention. Slowly peeking her eyes open, she saw someone stalk into the room, catch sight of her, sneer, and turn to leave. Casa didn't need more than a half glance to recognize Indivara; the scars across her face made her one of the easiest to find people in the whole Weyr. She seemed clearly disgusted by the idea of sharing the room with Casa, but she figured she'd at least try. The worst she did was say something rude and storm off, like she did for pretty much all things.
She thought about the many things she could say, and tried to find the best approach. Indivara was tempermental on the best of days, and while Casa didn't know her well, the woman had a reputation when it came to Hatchings. The first had involved her being mauled by a bronze or something; Casa didn't know or remember too much about it, besides the obvious marks.
The other one seemed to be affecting Indivara as much as herself, seeing as she was here in the middle of the night, looking irritated and tired. She frowned. Being bubbly wasn't going to work with her, nor was trying to reach out to her as friend. At least, that's what she'd heard. She was too tired to try and put that much effort into it anyhow. Right now, she had enough energy to at least try a meager, quiet approach. If it didn't work, she wasn't going to let it stress her. She was stressed enough as it was.
Taking a little breath, she tilted her head up to glance at Indivara calmly.
"You are welcome in here too. I'm not going to talk your ear off or irritate you with anything beyond my presence." Her voice was the opposite of the cheerful, bubbly energy she gave off; it was quiet, almost guarded, but polite. She kept her curious gaze on Indivara long enough to see if she was going to turn around or not, before dropping her eyes back towards the water. She dipped her head back, letting the hot water run over her neck and shoulders, and returned to quiet contemplation that the silence of the room brought.
