Blithe had stripped Yue down and was working on cleaning her up. Yue didn't resist and allowed Blithe to rinse her and scrub her down. "This is why Zinnia hates divination." Blithe said with a dry laugh as the water splashed onto Yue's body. She was glad for the warmth, for the cleansing, being dirty and grimy was not fun for her, or for anyone with a bit of sense in them. "Becoming a diviner changes a person. Seeing the future changes them, and usually not for the better." It was one of the most dangerous types of magic for your mind, but even so... "If I didn't take the mask, I wouldn't have found Zinnia." It was necessary. "The demons would still have her if it wasn't for the mask." She winced as Blithe's hands took care of her special spot, but even that needed a rinse.
Yue opened her eyes, feeling dizzy and exhausted. Blithe was trying to untangle the knots in her hair. She was still in the bathtub? Wait, what happened? "You passed out for a few seconds." Blithe looked at her with an odd expression. "After your talk with Zinny you need to get your sleep." Zinnia was here now, she had something to show her. Yue shut one eye as the shampoo almost fell in so she turned her head to use her clear eye to look at Zinnia, cheeks slightly pink from the exposure. Zinnia had made a contract with Rain, and Rain looked happy to be sisters with Blithe now. "That's fine. She'll be happier with you anyways." Yue muttered flippantly, feeling woozy. "Zinnia will be nicer to you than I was." If this was how it was, then it was for the best.
Yue opened her eyes yet again, Blithe was wiping her down, and Zinnia was talking. Did she pass out again? How tired was she? Zinnia was giving her a lecture about her treatment of Rain, about how to better treat a familiar the next time she decided to do so. "I gave her an order." Yue said simply, letting herself get wrapped in a towel. "...Protect you... with her life." Her vision flickered, her eyelids were so heavy. She splashed water onto her face to try to keep awake for a bit longer. "So I was already disciplining her, just different from how you would." Dismissal was discipline, wasn't it?
She stood up, wobbling a little, trying to keep her eyes open. "Be happy, Rain." She said to her former demon, who looked at her with a face that showed sadness and happiness at the same time. She really was an open book, wasn't she? "Zinnia's... a better..." Her eyelids slammed shut, one foot went in front of the other and she fell - Rain made herself into a puddle to catch her. "She doesn't have the mask, and she didn't cast a divination sleep spell." Rain said in wonder. "What if she misses a vision?" Yue wasn't getting back up, it seemed her body had finally had enough for now.
