She didn't really care where or how he'd gotten it, he'd gone and got it without her and come back before she freaked out again or had even done more than think about leaning against the wall and maybe sliding down to the floor.
"Thanks," she said, taking the towel and getting to work cleaning off her hands. She had to be careful, she was feeling a crawling urge to rub them raw and that wasn't a good idea. Blood-borne diseases might still be a thing here.
She hated this. She hated this and she didn't want to be here, she didn't want to be standing in some dusty alcove trying to clean someone else's blood out from under her fingernails and trying not to cry. She didn't want to have been tapped to save all of the infinite realities out there, she didn't want to have a magic staff that ran off her own blood. She wanted something, anything normal so badly that she could taste it.
...Literally, when she threw the bloodied towel on the ground and dragged Raph clumsily in for a kiss. Screw waiting. Screw 'enjoying the trip for once'. Please God, just let her have something normal today.
