"I didn't say I objected," Nico mumbled mostly to herself as he turned away to root through the first aid kit. When he turned back around, she sat up straighter and thrust out her chin for cleaning.

She probably could have done this on her own, but it was nice of him to take care of it for her. He'd probably do less damage than she would with the tweezers and a mirror.

Not that it still didn't sting though, no matter how delicately he handled things. Nico breathed through her nose and tried not to flinch or grimace and she cast around for a distraction that didn't involve turning her head. Unfortunately the most immediate distraction were Raph's eyes, which were very green and very intently focused on her face. And that was not a very good distraction, because she'd been trying to distract herself from noticing things like that.

It was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad idea. Best case scenario, things were weird and awkward and they went back to being friends so that it didn't suck quite so badly when one of them died or when they had to go back to their respective worlds and never see each other again. And there were so, so many ways it could go worse. Which is why she'd just been trying to ignore it, and just take whatever she could out of their friendship.

It was a bad idea, no matter what Abed had said when he came across the two of them in that cage.
