>"Dawnbreaker?"

Virgin seems self-concious this time.

"Uhh, it's a self-defense technique some of the elder nuns taught," she says and almost in a hurry fiddles with her pouch. She pulls up the photograph and places it picture up on the bed.
[I'd let you describe it if you want but it's one of those "school-photo" or "organisation" photos that show everyone in a row with the famous person in the middle. A small Virgin looks straight into the camra with a nervous look. Her appearence is tidy and her mane combed.] "Dawnbreaker was originally developed by one of the older sisters that had lived near the Everfree."

"What can't I do, is the better question?"

Suddenly, the bass drops and through one of the windows flies DJ Pone3 in on a flying vinyl record. Zecora runs along the spinning disc and raps about zigguha oppression. A pair of sunglasses slowly descent from the heavens and land perched on Chadvirgin's snout.

Okay, so here's the real reply.

"Well, self-defense," Virgin says as she looks away from the pair with a bit of a bothered grin as she scratch behind her neck. "W-w-we don't ehh... Hurt innocent but you know there have been instances in the past were one of the elders caught a theif for the gaurds. I guess, if you want a more precise list of my abilites: I can back-flip, front-flip, roll, jump-kick, climb steep things, punch, grapple and buck. But my grapple is mediocre at best."

She gives Heather a serious look and nods. Not the kind of scary serious look but a solemn look of gratefulness.

Heather smiles to Virgin Flame, if somewhat weakly, and then slowly turns her face down to the photograph as Virgin Flame leaves the room.

Flowercup is very quick and deliberate in her moves, telling her to “follow me,” and exiting the room, into the hallway, down the stairs, and back into the same hallway. Virgin Flame is by now assumed to be capable of walking, quickly, without assistance. The two turn left into a mother compartment with a bed to the left, and another room to the right, in what surely must be the wes-most extent of the cathedral. Entering the small room there is a shower and bathtub combination. While most of the walls are whitewashed, painted, or otherwise covered in mortar, the bath-shower is surrounded by naked brick. This cathedral, though more modern than even the houses in Canterlot, still predates the widespread application of indoor plumbing.

Flowercup turns to Virgin Flame saying,
“Well, here. You have to turn the knob all the way for warm water, and the water heater isn’t great, so you’ll only have so much warm water.”

Flowercup picks up the cloak, holding it, and looks up to Virgin Flame. Her eyes are open wide, and for several seconds, her gaze is stuck on Virgin Flame, lips curled down. After the passage of done seconds, she turns her head away, and asks her without eye contact, “do you want this washed?” Holding up her cloak

"I-I... Yeah." Virgin nods. "If it's not too much of a bother."

She lifts of her rings with her hooves like a reverse coronation and place them on the floor. She walks into the shower and twirl the knob for the water. At first she jumps but soon her body gets used to the temperature. Her red mane hangs like a curtain.

She picks up the soap between her front hooves and sit down on her huanches. As droplets hit the bar, it starts to foam. She swipes up the foam and scraps it off against her scalp.

For a minute - probably it is much less than a minute, but it feels like a minute - Flowercup stands around, as if not understanding what to do. Then she turns around, seems to say “I’ll just -“ not completing the sentence, and leaves the room.

Virgin is so focused and thorough in her washing that she doesn't really register taht Flowercup stands there or that she leaves. She uses the nails of her hooves to cut into the caked mud on her legs and breaks them into smaller pieces, which can be washed away. She makes sure the water reaches all areas of her body. Her mane and tail are thoroughly soaked and dripping as she applies a bit more soap. As she washes off for a second time, she turn off hot water and meditates just for a brief minute in the cool embrace the shower provides. In the stillness, she think about Princess Celestia and sends her a thanks for the velcoming sisters of this church.

May the Princess be thanked… wherever she is.

Whatever mud Virgin has accumulated in her walk through the mire of the Delemare - whatever dirt the Wverfree has left on her, or ash from Canterlot…. It is gone now, washed away but the lukewarm waters of the back-room shower.

Virgin Flame is cleaner and better smelling, though so much hair will take a while to dry.

Virgin pull the towel of it's beam or hook and wave it like flag. Then she starts to massage each part of her body with the towel. She begins softly massaging her templates with the towel, then she throw it around her tail as she squeeze out the water, and soak up the water in her fur.

After that cleansing, fluffs up her mane and shakes her head. Then she puts on her rings: One ring for her tail and three rings for the back of her mane. The tufts through the rings are no longer slick against her neck but fluff and so is the rest of hairs in her mane and tail.

Then she takes a nail file (if there exist one in the bathroom) and files her hooves so they become nice and shiny.

She is done and looks her best now.
So am I. Goodnight. It was good.

Virgin Flame exits the bathroom into the little bedroom, then into the hall, where she finds both the door that she originally came through, and the stairwell fairly easily. Entering through the door, Virgin Flame finds herself back into the Sanctuary, with its 20+ meter ceiling and occasional stained glass.

Virgin walks around in the room. She inspects each artpiece and sees if she recalls what they reference. She also tries to figure out what the, now broken and barracked, staind glass windows used to depict by using the context of the art around them and the process of elimination.

In other words:
I want to knowledge check all the art in the room and see what I can learn.

The car is of a style Spark is familiar with, having bench seats that face each other, with the aisle running through the middle of the car. The group takes their seats, or tries to. Waabishki prefers to laydown, and Wellspring seems to want to do the same. Makade attempts to place his "map" below the seats.

For the moment, they pass out of the station and by the river, past grey and snowy roads, factories, brick buildings and pine trees through the city scape. Wellspring sits near him, evidently attempting to go back to sleep, and covering herself in her cloak. She leans in, perhaps invading Spark's space, trying to make herself as comfortable as the seats will allow.

Thanks for the effort posting, though I can't say I will respond in kind, sadly.

Virgin spends a lot of time looking through each one of these pieces. She sees how the mornings sun's rays filter through some of the stained-glass. She inspects the statues' closely. Last thing she does is go from taking in the beauty of the Fluttershy solo images before going to the plywood covered windows.

"It's alright Darling. I can see you've been through quite a lot. We've all been through a lot. Maybe not the same things, or the same amount. But... We're here to help you." She tries to smile to her

"Yeah... Thank you that would be lovely and..." She scratches the back of her neck with hoof. She opens her mouth but closes it. She is about to apologise for talking about spouting her opinions when they had been so nice to take her in but she stops.

"Heh. What you said reminds me of something my hag-" She stops herself midsentence. Her mouth is wide open and she looks at Heather for a moment before continuing. "My elder that taught me Dawnbreaker used to say, 'Suffering can be compared but never diminished.'"

She again tries a smile, and her hoof presses a little more firmly into Virgin Flame's side.

"But let's not think of suffering. You've come a long way. You must be hungry. Surely that bread can't be enough."

Virgin seems bit suprized by her words.

"Uhh, well I don't know. Maybe you misunderstood but it's an expression of what you said basically. The point isn't that suffering will never disappear but that, you know, someponies sometimes claim you shouldn't be crying cause you haven't suffered as much as they have but that's not why you shouldn't be crying... Uhh.... Yeah, you're right I am more hungry than that. I would love to join you for breakfast."

Goodnight. I had fun.

Back from work
Heather is silent, and blinks. Then she blinks again.

"Do you need a moment in silence?"

Virgin tips her head forward in thought.

"Maybe, but what will become of breakfast in that case? Then again, I don't wanna be pushy. I have fifthy bits so I can buy breakfast myself."

“That’s alright.” Heather says, again pressing her hoof into her barrel.
“You can have waffles with us.” She gives a soft smile.

“Flowercup. Go set up that little machine machine, will you? Make us some waffles.”

Flowercup turns her head to Heather, as if awoken from momentary sleep.

“Uh, Yes Ma’am.”
Flowercup bolts, scurrying off towards the back door.
