[That draws a smile, faint and full of admiration. She can't know, really, what that was like for Helena - but she does know it wasn't easy.

It's not the same thing, really, but she knows how people look at her. She can only imagine what it would have been like at school.]

Bet you looked better than all of them anyway. [And that's not really the point, but - well, it's true.]

( Amused, Helena huffs out a quiet laugh before twisting off her mattress, wandering the short distance between them to lean against Barbara's bedframe instead, one arm resting on the metal frame and the other propped at her hip as she looks down at her. )

Flattery, huh?

[bodilesswarrior]

[Barbara props herself up on her elbows, gaze almost coy as she looks up at Helena.]

I only flatter when I mean it.

[crossbearing]

Careful. You'll get yourself in trouble.

( quietly, confidentially, as if she were offering incredibly important advice.)
