[So already on it, man. Things are disappearing already. Quickly. Yes, there is a sense he's holding himself back a ~~lot~~ little in attacking the food.

...

Don't ask how he's managing to look so dignified while in the middle of this feeding frenzy. He's always managed to exhibit impeccable table manners, even in situations where logically any appearance of manners shouldn't exist.

Swallow. Grin.]

Okay, it tastes great too. You're a good cook.

[And now he slows down to more thoroughly appreciate the food.]

Mmmhmm.

[He has his mouth full at the moment, so translated from Lawese that is, 'Thank you, I will.']

I'm glad that you're satisfied.

[And he does mean that, though he never expected to hear otherwise from the pirate.]

[There will no complaints over food, no. He's not very fussy when it comes to that.

There's just going to be om nom noming and a sigh of relief:]

Thank you. That really helped.

[Plates absolutely spotless already. That didn't take long. He's just going sip that tea now and look miles better now that he's got more in him.]

[Itachi begins clearing away the trays and plates automatically.]

Then whatever you do next is up to you.

You may continue to rest, or use any of the facilities here.

... I think I'll take that shower now.

[He is going to take an experimental sniff.

...

uh huh. okay. yeesh. No wonder he hasn't seen Amaya yet.]

Then it's all yours.

I'm going to trust that you're strong enough now to handle everything on your own.

[Though he'd still provide help if it was necessary.]

I'll manage fine.

...

... uh, do you have a razor in there? [Stubble man.] I'm probably looking like a wild mountain bandit by now.

[~~Real ninjas shave with kunai.~~]

You should find one in there, yes.

[~~So he's going to find one in your medicine cabinet, then?~~]

Aa... thank you.

[Relief. Relief.

And he's going to slide out bed once that tea is done and kettle drained, dodge the pile of drying clothes and weapons put to the side, and head to the bathroom.]

[And Itachi will tidy up in the meanwhile, ready to help with anything should he be needed.]

[If you poke around the clothes while you're tidying (and there, aside from the mesh armor and the t-shirt, are a couple good layers, including a hooded cloak) you'll find the outer layers still damp and dirty and bloodstained. Old set blood, but it should say volumes how close and personal some of these fights were.

There is also a belt with pounches, contents trying to spill out. Apparently he did bring along some of the kunai from Halloween. Used them too by the nicks along the edge of the blade.

The tanto and the nodachi lie off to the side. They have also seen action.

The hot water turns on and keeps running during this time, and there's a moment of where it feels that the other man has been surprised by something but dully, and then it passes. The shower continues for a reasonable amount of time, and then it turns off.]

[None of this is anything Itachi hasn't seen. He doesn't want to mess with Law's things too much, just make everything easier to deal with.

He's willing to wash them, however, should Law ask.

The pirate should also find a bath robe waiting, should he want it.]

Geez. Bloody wings.

[No, there's no trouble, just sighing.]

They've changed color at the tips. Yellow's gone - instead they look like they've been dipped in molten gold ore. [The distracted soft comment comes from the bathroom as Law engages in the intricate task of shaving and trimming his goatee. He has the wings in question outstretched and spread to help the drying of the feathers. Toweling them off is not enough.

The towel in question is around his waist. Sighing again.] How troublesome.

Does the color bother you?

[Itachi never thought about the color of his own. They're black and fitting and have never changed.

His brother's are... strange. But he doesn't think about them much either.]

[Sticking his head out the door.]

Black and gold wings? No, not at all. The only thing that bothers me is the shift itself. It seems to be a normal process but I'd love to know why it happens and what triggers it.

I'm afraid I couldn't tell you.

[Just one more thing he needs to find answers for.]

[And he's just going to disappear back inside the bathroom to finish up that last bit of shaving.]

Aaa... I know. S'alright, it just gets under my skin a little as a physician. I'll figure it out eventually.

I can imagine.

[Itachi goes about his own business, of which he has very little.]

Is there anything else you'll need?

[Cleaning up all the mess left by shaving - because who wants to find another guy's whiskers in his sink?]

Just access to your washer and dryer, please. My own clothes are still pretty wet.

Of course. All of my facilities are available to you.

[It really doesn't need to be said.]

[Nope. Out comes Law in that bathrobe, the other robe over an arm (he'll wash that too), and he'll go straight for the (neatened) clothes pile.]

I don't know if some of these can be saved. The pants are pretty much dead. [There's so much blood on them, they're probably only fit for burning when he gets home. He'll take the weapons with him to detail them later.] ... maybe with some good scrubbing I can breathe some life back into them. I hate throwing out stuff.

I could attempt some doctoring of my own if you wish, but I couldn't promise anything in terms of saving them.

At least most everything is easy to come by here.

Well, if we can't, we can't. [Mourn and move on. He's going to wander right on to the table nearest the aforementioned washer and dryer, and start emptying everything in the pockets of the clothes and the pouches of the belt neatly in rows on the table.

Medical supplies (bandages, threaded needles,a catheter, nitrile gloves, tape, tourniquets, trauma scissors, cravats, antiseptics, dressings, burn salves, chest seals, gauze, a couple of syringes sealed in plastic, wraps, a drug box, a splint...)

A surgeon's field tools. There's something about the quality of these that suggest they are actually Law's personal set, and not a request from the Malnosso.

Water purification tablets.

A packet of seeds marked 'Katara'.

A flashlight.

Lockpicks.

Travel sized sword care supplies.

The kunai.

The nodachi and the tanto.]

That it is. Not like it is at sea, where I'd probably be out of luck if things were getting thin until the next island or the next battle. [Where he would steal his enemies' pants. Spoils of war and shopping in a pinch. A very slight shudder.] Have to be very careful out there.

You were well prepared, and I'm glad for it.

[Because he cares for your well being, Law. If this isn't already apparent.]

If you're lucky, there may be clothing much like what you wear in stock as well.

So am I. Nobody else on the combat mission really was a medic.

[A smile. He knows you care. As a friend. That part was never in any doubt.]

Hopefully. Though if they have things from the Line I hope it's not... too outrageous. [Fashion from his world makes Naruto's orange look tame, okayokay.] ... I'll just grab whatever won't cause a need for therapy. I'm pretty good with whatever.

[Except ties. UGH.]
