Snow glared at him as she went to clean off.

Frei nodded in reply to Raven.

Snow went back to looking at the cameras she had planted.

"You cannot stay here, it’s too early," Dalila said firmly.

"I can’t go back! Don’t make me-"

"You will return now. And when we call you back, you will come to us promptly."

"Then at least give me a way to protect myself," Laurel pleaded, "Give me strength!" Dalila thought about that request for a moment.

"Yes, I believe we can do at least that for you. As a reward for finding us," she replied with a slightly off motherly smile. "Though our methods might be more painful than you can handle."

"I can handle it," Laurel said without hesitation.

Dalila’s smile grew, "Very good."

As Snow cleaned up, Raven tried to put some cream on Frei's nose.

Frei blinked and left the cream on her nose.

Even Blaze managed a small chuckle.

Frei didn't appear to know what to do with the foam, getting cross-eyed as she continued to stare at it.

"Don't hurt yourself," Raven chuckled.

Frei stared at him, starting to look a little upset.

"Wipe it off if you don't like it," Raven suggested.

Frei blinked but didn't move.

"... Or leave it..." Raven muttered.

Frei suddenly leaned forwards the rubbed her nose and Raven's shoulder.

Snow snorted a chuckle at that.

Raven entertained Frei and himself with the cream a little more while Blaze ducked into the bathroom to get ready for the day. When she came out a few minutes later, she was already looking better.

Snow stretched out on the bed, "Hmm, not much we can do during the day," she mused.

"Want some more medical cream?" Raven offered Snow.

Snow made a face at him.

Frei tilted her head a little, "She's not hurt," she commented.

Raven put some more cream on Frei's nose without a word before going to clean up.
