Chusi stroked her fur and all of a sudden, the girl felt a strange mixture of nostalgia and amusement. The gesture reminded her of her ex girlfriend, but almost in a good way which, in a way, was strange because lately, any thought or mention of her had brought either anger, sorrow or bitterness to the chocolate girl. This was a new development. "Sorry," Genie murmured sheepishly, "it kinda just slipped out." She swore so often in her head that sometimes she forgot it was inappropriate to actually say it out loud.

A flush darkened Genie's cheeks at Chusi's words, embarrassment washing over her like a waterfall. She was very unused to words like that and often felt very out of place whenever someone said that to her. "Um, yeah, it's fine, really," wolfish brows knitted into a frown as she opened her mouth, then closed it again, somehow tongue-tied. "I'm used to it," she ended up saying, lifting one shoulder in a shrug even as a shiver racked through her body and she sucked in a sharp breath. "Used to watching out for sleepwalkers."

Sleepwalkers had a strange place in the medic's life.
