Serah didn't bother look in Lorenzo's general direction as he lectured everyone around her, instead just trying to ignore him by staring into the void. Lorenzo danced around the group and gave varying levels of reaction, sometimes eccentric and other times dead serious. But even then they always made sure to be either mean as possible about it, or shrug it off as unimportant. Basic stuff for a commander, really, but his snide attitude just made it worse. Soon after Lorenzo finished, Lt. Ritsu started listing off the schedule for all the pilots starting tomorrow. Serah DID pay attention to this, perking both her head and ears up whilst the lieutenant explained. Everything seemed to make sense, so the girl didn't have any issue. Not that she had a right to complain, even if she did. 

Then everyone got dismissed, and Serah made sure to worm her way out of the room first. She ignored everyone's attempts of conversation or their questions. Right now the girl transformed into a nimble little mouse, scurrying through the hallways and soon finding herself in the women's bathroom. Her forehead was drenched in sweat, and if it weren't for the plugsuit probably a lot of other parts on her body too. The girl was breathing heavily, eyes wide and a sickly feeling inside of her stomach. Serah looked to her left, seeing a mirror and by extension, their reflection. She looked awful right now, wide eyes with a hint of red and a face twisted in disgust. [color=00aeef]"This... Is sick..."[/color] she muttered to herself, memories of that battle freshly etched into Serah's mind. She honestly didn't think much of it at first. Maybe a harmless fight among themselves, or some Cruxi simulation dummies. Small stuff.

But they actually wound up killing [i]humans[/i]. Their own species. What's worse, Serah actually pushed Atty's blade through one of them herself... She [i]killed[/i] someone. The girl knew stuff like this would happen, but she didn't... She didn't know it was going to be this bad! Her stomach started to twist and turn, Serah balling up her hands into a fist whilst leaning against the door. [color=00aeef]"Ghuu...!"[/color] she groaned, quickly placing her left hand over her mouth. Serah ran into the first stall she could find, crouching down on her knees whilst supporting herself with the other hand on the wall. When the girl was leaning over it and dropped the hand covering her mouth, she felt an awful taste rise up from her stomach. A sickly fluid gushed out of her mouth and filled up the toilet bowl, pain and cramps rocking Serah's body.

She vomited for a good few times, the insides of her stomach clearing themselves out nice and clean. When the girl finished she nearly had to puke again just at the gross sight, so they flushed it down and ran straight out of that stall. Serah was faced with a mirror showing her ugly face again, grimacing. [color=00aeef][i]I need to clean up.[/i][/color] was the only thought to race around in her head at the time, so she decided to rinse her mouth with some water and wash her face. They made sure to vanquish any trace of the weak side from earlier, prettying herself up back to the regular Serah everyone would be used to by now. The girl glared at her new self in the mirror again, having put up a fake smile. [color=00aeef][i]You can't ever show yourself like that to anyone. Nobody will ever like you again. Just pretend, it'll be fine...[/i][/color] were just some of the words rattling around inside that girl's brain, self-loathing and cruel things. But just by looking at Serah, you wouldn't suspect any of it.

[color=00aeef]"Aw cmon, I can't run around like this, right~?"[/color] Serah cheerfully hummed herself, hinting to the fact she was still inside of her plugsuit. From all the commotion that red ribbon Serah always wore also seemed to have gotten a little loose and the girl had to giggle at the sight when she noticed. With a few swift motions she tied it into her hair properly again, looking to the exit. With a cheery little hum she exited the bathroom, then took a moment to orientate herself. Serah then proceeded down the path towards the hangars, wanting to change back into her cute clothes before doing anything else.
