Despite herself, Dasha did feel warm embarrassment coming to her features. She was one of the best they had, and that wasn’t even being conceited. She only worked in Interpol, put in so many hours, and put her all into her work. That was a lot, and she was aware of that…. But hearing Sam say it was still…
Her lips quirked a bit at the mention of a hotel in Hoenn. “I’ve… actually never been out to Hoenn,” she admitted with a smaller smile. She’d heard some wonderful things about some of the big cities, but they were like far off fantasies more than real life understanding or facts of the situation.
Mmmm??? Blue eyes watched Sam dig, not sure what she was doing up until the makeup bag was pulled out. And— !!!! Whereas so many others might have taken offense to such measures, Dasha did not. She knew she looked like hell without makeup. She probably looked like even worse hell bandaged up in a hospital bed without makeup. And just… The shot of being cute in a hospital bed and…. ;w;
“I’d love a makeover,” she squeak-whined a little. That was not how she wanted herself potrayed but she wanted it so bad. “It’s impossible to look cute like this…” her arms moved a little on the bed. Snowflake rolled her eyes but sort of smile. Oh Dash… Oh Dash.

Genuinely a little surprised that her offer had actually gotten a good reaction, she chuckled and shook her head, unable to really believe she'd made the right call even with the reaction she was getting right now, scooching her table to one side and moving her chair closer to the bed, pulling out some of the first things she should use. "Oh you think so...well clearly...you haven't seen the magic I can work.~"
In truth Sam wore very little makeup, but as Cat she wore enough for her career to make up for it, and after a while learned how to apply it herself without someone else to help her, so applying some to Dash would be a walk in the park. She'd ask between a few colors to see what Dasha wanted, before easing closer to start off, focusing around her eyes first since Sam always found Dasha tended to use just the right amount of shadow to make them look soft, elegant, but also stern and serious if she needed it, so it was fitting that be the first part to get "back to normal".
"Ya know i was panicking the moment I brought that out but...hey, I'm just glad you like it...I'll pop round again for a few minutes before work tommorrow if you like~ Make sure you're all sorted..."
She continued to apply the makeup carefully, little by little, trying to be professional more than the silly layers upon layers girls might do to eachother as a laugh. "Ya know...if you like the idea of Hoenn I'm sure we can find some vacation time together next year...a-assuming we're still friends by then of course..." She knew the offer was a bit soon, but hoped the fact she was suggesting it as just a future idea would make it more acceptable as a bit of light conversation.

“Make me the prettiest hospital princess,” Dasha giggled a little, reaching up a hand to her lips and smiling a bit more >w<. Oh gosh, just… having brushes tickle her face again was such a comfort? She hadn’t even realized she needed it. She… she definitely needed to go to a spa after this. Go sit in the hat water, get a mani-peti, maybe not a massage because of all the bruising she’d sustained but…
An almost giggle welled in Dasha at Sam’s words. “I’d love that…” she answered softly. “I…” she paused on realizing how both conceited and bashful it could sound before going on. “Always try and look my best out anywhere… Makeup does such wonders..” It made her feel powerful, femininely powerful, and she loved it. She…ah…. Actually didn’t think she could rock the non-makeup look the way she could anything else. People had mentioned her looking sicker than not when she did so… so….yeah.
Oh? The thought of going on vacation with Sam had Dasha perking a little. Their little spa day weeks back had been so nice so spending a week on or two on vacation in Hoenn sounded… pretty nice? “We should… ah… schedule some time off… maybe during the summer?” Not much really happened in the summer that she could remember now and it just…sounded so nice. Everything sounded so nice.

"Hospital princess eh? Not queen? OOoo hun that disney marketing really got to you huh? Or are Princesses the queens of your home region too?" She paused briefly in her application of makeup to ask. "You guys had princesses right?"
She'd show a bit of surprise while keeping her hand steady as the other girl accepted the offer of the vacation so well...they...they meshed pretty well huh? Very briefly some...'overly friendly' thoughts passed through Sam's head, but she brushed them away without much thought. In fact she was annoyed with herself for even briefly thinking like that...Dasha was a great friend, and it was cliche to say even in her head but...well she didn't wanna mess that up by being stupid.
"Well I'll see if I can book us some vacation time...get the tickets early and save a bit of money for us both eh?" She'd give a light wink, finishing Dasha's cheeks before pulling away, flipping a comb in one hand and holding up two small tubes in the other. "Right, you want lip gloss, or lip stick, aaaaaaaaaaaaand do you maybe want me to fix your hair up a little?~"

A giggle escaped from Dasha. She…. Probably should have said queen but damn if she hadn’t been thinking Disney Princess right then. Her features fell a little, however, as Sam mentioned Era. “We… had everything,” she answered softly.
“A king, a princess who became queen, a crown prince now who is trying to reclaim his rights…” Though Nolan could go suck a couple bricks, Dasha did have to wonder what happened to their very brief Queen Alice. She had been… so young... so vulnerable. They still hadn’t found her last she checked, and as much as she hated presuming anyone dead, Dasha didn’t have high hopes. Their Prince, at least, was alive and working.
Ugh, she didn’t want to think about this too deeply and yet…
Ah, good, a distraction. “Ah yeah it would be a personal flight huh?” she smiled thinking about that. A Hoenn vacation… with Sam, yeah…. As the questions were asked, she smiled a bit more. “Gotta have lip gloss and …” her fingers went up briefly to the bandages that had messed up so much of her hair and its placement. “If you can find something to do with it please… I don’t even know if it knows what it wants to do right now…” She giggled softly thinking about that.

Her own expression dipped for a moment as she watched the same happen to Dasha, part of her glad they quickly shifted topic but...well. She was here to cheer Dasha up, she didn't need to be a downer by asking about any of that stuff right now...maybe some other time. Shaking the thought from her head, she smiled again and put down the lipstick, leaning in and applying some to Dasha's lips, lightly brushing her thumb over Dasha's bottom lip just to even it out where she'd laid it on a little heavy, though she tried to be briefl enough that it wasn't too uncomfortable for Dasha.
"There...lookin like a princess already.~" She gave a brief wink before she looked to her hair. The bandage would be a bit of an issue but..."...I can work with this.~"
Easing up just one knee onto some spare space on the bed, she brought her hands and the brush up to Dasha's hair. There was only so much she could do while it was dry, but she gave it a good go, moving some hair from the back and sides to cover the bandages up a little, maybe making the overall 'look' suffer a little from behind, but all said and done, Dasha looked damn good from the front, Sam giving a proud smile as she briefly cupped Dasha's cheeks to get a good look at her, before leaning off the bed, easing herself onto it, and resting just beside her friend as she held the mirror out infront of them.
"What you think?~ Lookin' good?~"

Blue eyes closed briefly. It had been a while since someone had done her makeup, and the feeling of someone smoothing out her lip gloss was vaguely ethereal. Not unpleasant but very different. Like a princess already… Her eyes felt watery but thankfully didn’t well. It was… so so so so so nice to be feeling like this again. She couldn’t even begin to describe it. At the assurance she could do something with her hair, Dasha grinned briefly. Please do… please make it cute and suave and whatever else…
She winced a little from the brush but she could tolerate that just to ensure her own cuteness. Warmth touched Dasha’s cheeks as Sam cupped them briefly, but it would drain into a smile as the mirror was pulled forth. Oh… Right then and there, Dasha almost felt normal again, as if everything that had happened was a very brief dream she was now waking up form. Her head still hurt. Her body still hurt, but…. “It’s perfect, Sam….” she exhaled. “Thank you… thank you so much…” Her eyes were glossy again, but the smile on her face persisted. “I feel so cute…” The key word being feel as much as everything else.

Her work done, Sam couldn't help but hold her proud smile, though less so at what she'd specifically managed to do and more so the reaction it had earned, briefly looking over Dasha again before lightly tapping the tip of her nose as she noticed her eyes watering a bit. "Oi, come on. No tears. You're a princess but you're like, a badass princess okay? So no tears since i liiiitterally just did your makeup.~" She smirked bright enough to show she was still teasing, lightly pecking the air around Vesta's cheek like someone fancy might do as a greeting, giving her a brief, light hug before moving back down to her own seat, letting out a content sigh as she looked Dasha over.
"...Ya know you definitely look better than me right now. For real. I mean..." She brushed her hands up the side of her head and into her hair. "Look at this. It's like the double sided bed head look constantly!~"

The nose tap had Dasha blinking the dribblets of tears away. A badass princess… And… yes Sam literally did just do her makeup. A soft chuckle escaped from Dasha, and her features warmed some as her smile heightened. The gentle motions had her relaxing again. This was so nice. Sam was so nice.
Those last words had her grinning a bit. “When I get out of here I have got to do your hair~” she smiled back. “As a thank you.. of course….” A smaller smile pulled onto her features. “I-I’ve been thinking of such a cute style for it and everything…” Maybe some extensions, a braid, or just a change in the overall style. She could see it now. “Of course if you want anyways,” she followed up smiling a bit more.

At the returned offer to do her hair, Sam almost burst out laughing. Maybe if she had her Cat wig but right now... "Oh really I doubt you'd even have anything to work with, what with how short I keep it."
Running her fingers through her hair, it didn't even fully reach her shoulders, it was thick and curled towards the tips, but even if she could get it flat it wouldn't even brush her shoulders. Maybe if she put a bit of effort into laying it flat, but it just naturally seemed to bounce out from her head a little.
"We'll have to see. I doubt even professionals can make something of this...it'd be nice though, for sure." She'd smile sweetly, idly toying with her hair around her fingers, just idly enjoying the general concept let alone truth that she had a friend willing to do some girly things like this for her.

Dasha’s lips curled a little. Even if Sam didn’t seem to think it was possible, she had plans. Many plans. The first of which was to actually get discharged from the hospital eventually. Some were talking about moving her to a rehab center, and she was not up for that so they were just… forced to deal with her until they could officially discharge her.
“We will see,” she emphasized briefly before sighing softly back into the pillow. Her head was starting to hurt again which vaguely meant the medication was up and the nurse would be in at any moment. “I bet your hair would look great grown out, though…” she commented idly after a moment. “I know it can become annoying especially during our field work but… I think it’d be nice…” Mwah, she probably shouldn’t have said it like that but… it was very hard to think of another way.
A knock on the door had Snowflake mewling and Dasha’s gaze flicking back. A nurse was right there smiling on some unknown cue. Ah, so then her headache was not just coming back on its own. “Sorry to interrupt, Ms. Laska, but are you ready for another dose?” the nurse asked looking from Dasha to Sam and back again. Dasha took in a slow breath and gave a nod. The nurse nodded and shifted around the bed. “You’re looking very nice,” she complimented. Dasha couldn’t help but smile at that flashing Sam a grin back.

Sam found a faint bit of color come to her cheeks as the other agent talked about her hair. Complimenting her hair as it was or saying she could do something with it sounded a little different to her than suggesting she grow it out...i-in a nice way just...ugh why was she getting flustered it was just a suggestion. She was pretty thankful for the nurse since it was an excuse for her not to speak and show how much she was likely going to stutter, letting out a breath of relief before she eased back into her chair, sharing the sly smirk between her and Dasha, a little proud of her work being complimented, especially as Dasha seemed to enjoy the compliment.
"Its just her natural radiance now that she's starting to get better.~" She gave Dasha a playful wink, letting the nurse do as she needed to (unless of course she was asked to leave) unsure if this was some needle or oral medication she needed, though she did think to ask. "Any chance you know what Miss Laska here might be allowed to go home?"

Sam’s comment had Dasha smiling brightly. The nurse chuckled a bit to herself but gave a small nod. “I’d say so, you’re on the road to a speedy recovery, just you wait,” she assured. The nurse wouldn’t ask Sam to leave but would walk over and start setting up an IV. Looking over, she paused and smiled. “From the medical charts I’d say a few more days, but we mostly just want to make sure that when we discharge you you’ll be all and well by yourself, Ms. Laska,” the nurse had returned her attention to Dasha and setting the IV in thereafter.
A small sigh and nod was given. Dasha understood why the hospital was keeping her but still wished they wouldn’t. Having so many hovering individuals was… just sort of exhausting, she guessed. At least finances weren’t an issue here with Interpol as her occupation. That in itself was a blessing of sorts but… bahhhh. “—Has anyone ever tried escaping from here?” Dasha sked, the start of a joke that became a bit too serious.
The nurse fidgeted but offered a small smile and shake of head. “People are usually patient given it’s their health at stake.” Ah, right right. Dasha exhaled but gave a smile. She’d sit still a bit longer and then the minute she was out, she swore she’d expel it all out in a hike or two.

Well she was recovering fine at least, and that was good to hear. Sam wasn't entirely sure by how the nurse worded herself whether Dasha was already 'okay' or if she genuinely needed more rest before she was allowed to go home. The fact she was still on an IV said it was probably more than just an observation period but-
Snickering loudly into her hand, Dasha's serious tone making the intended joke all the funnier to her, she just gave the nurse a sweet smile to let her know it was just a light tease from her friend despite her serious tone, the red head even flashing Dasha a brief but playful glare for the tone she'd ended up taking.
Though...that did bring a question to her mind.
"So if this is just an observation period...could you release her into someone elses care?" She had heard about that happening but wasn't too sure it was a thing off the top of her head. Like...a patient being unable to sign themselves out, unless they had a family member or a friend to sign for them. Releasing the responsibility to them and such. It was only in thinking about her question a little more that she realized it may have came out more like a curious offer. On the one hand, Dasha's clear want to get out of here made her bite her tongue on any backpedaling, but she also knew it wasn't an offer she could genuinely uphold without some complications.

Dasha’s eyes flicked to Sam as the question was asked. That was— that was true. She could maybe ask Alex or even Nik? Or— well, Sam wasn’t technically family or even on the medical or Interpol list as such so not her but—
The nurse tapped her chin at Sam’s question. Walking to the end of Dasha’s bed, she fished up the medical chart there and skimmed it. “Ah, seems you’re still on some of the heavier pain medications..” She knew that considering what was given but.. “Unfortunately, those have to be hospital given… but I suppose maybe once you’re able to tolerate the pains at a moderate level where some over the counter or even light prescriptions can be offered, we might be able to do something about that…”
Dasha chewed the inside of her mouth. On one hand, she didn’t want to be in pain, any pain. On the other, if it got her out faster, she could most certainly tolerate quite a lot. “Maybe… switch to something lighter after this dose…” Dasha spoke briefly to herself and then looked at the nurse.
The nurse paused but gave a small nod. “I’ll see what I can do.”
