Elizabeth quickly reached out grabbing the skeletons leg bone and its flailing ceased. Reaching with her other hand she grabbed the bone that had been loose and put it in place. With a loud snap it was fixed in place again her necromancy flowing freely between her and the skeleton. She looked into its skull and said, "don't you look at me in that tone of voice, I swear when we get home..." She left the sentence blank letting the skeleton do the thinking on that. Standing up she shivered as the moving air penetrated her soaking clothes to her skin. The skeleton stood next to her more calm than before, perhaps she thought he just needed to touch her necromancy every now and again... She shivered hard making her put the thought away as her teeth started chattering. Seeing Atari still In the water she offered a shaky hand to him to help him out.

Grabbing the girl's hand, he hopped out of the bath, making certain to keep his balance. He noticed how cold it was and looked towards Matsu. Since he did not do anything to help, Atari told him to take off his shirt. Turning towards Elizabeth, he said, "I think you should change out of your dress at least. Matsu-nii's shirt should be long enough to cover e-everything..." The younger male looked away from Elizabeth, with a slight blush on his cheek. No later did he tell Elizabeth to change did he sneeze.
The older male, who was taking off his inner long sleeved shirt, looked at his younger brother and gave an earnest smile. Handing the shirt to the freezing girl, he turned towards his brother and told him, "Take off your shirt and wring it dry. It that doesn't help, I'll lend you my trusty vest!" Atari sighed and did as his older sibling had told him. Taking off both of his shirts, he laid one down to try and wring one of them dry. The cool air on his bare skin irritated him. What irritated him more was that the tattoo on his chest was visible for everyone to see.

Taking the shirt, she told Matsu, "Thanks." She tried to get over to the girls changing room after noticing Atari take off his shirt, just catching enough to see a tattoo. With her teeth chattering and the warm shirt in her hand, she found her way into the women's area and started changing out of the cold clothing as quick as possible. Looking in the mirror, she could see her undergarments still soaked. Putting on the shirt like that wouldn't help for long, but she couldn't just not wear them. Taking some dry towels that were available, she tried to dry them off best as she could.
When she walked back out she felt exposed; the shirt only dropping halfway down her thigh. She could feel her face heat up once she met back up with the boys, hoping they didn't stare. Taking her still soaking dress, she put it into the skeletons arms, who had been standing around the men. Oddly, it didn't fuss and held her dress like a butler would a warm towel essentially acting like a walking drying rack. Looking at Matsu, she said, "Thanks again for the shirt. I'll have Atari give it back to you once it's washed."
Edited by LittleBlackCat: Sorry for being such a Grammar Nazi. You typed Engel's name in your first sentence when you meant Atari, so I changed it for you. Afterwards, I just read your post from the edit page and ended up adding commas and stuff. (:<

After a long attempt to dry most of his clothes, Atari gave up and asked his older brother to lend him the vest. Matsu was pleased that his brother would depend on him so much in one setting that he was beaming with happiness as he took off his vest. (Mind you, he had put it back on after Elizabeth had left, seeing how Atari was being stubborn about asking him for it.) 'Ugh, these pants are still wet... I guess I better head home with Matsu before I really do catch a cold,' thought the young male, wondering if the sun had fully set yet. Not long after, Elizabeth returned to the group.
She thanked the older male, who in turned smiled back, saying, "It's not a big deal, young miss. It would've been bad if you had to walk home in those uncomfortable clothes." The man took a Western-style bow, placing his right hand in front of his bare chest and his left hand behind him. The long strands of honey-dipped, chocolate brown hair fell forward. As usual, Atari sighed and placed a hand to his face as he watched his older sibling's embarrassing actions. Without anymore delay, he said to the group, "We should all go home now. At least we got the supplies we came for."
OOC: Even though the bathhouse setting is mostly over, I thought I'd look up some information about it. I never knew that it was called a sentō! (Thank wikipedia for having some sort of information on it!)

Elizabeth laughed little at his bow, but enjoyed his over the top gentlemen antics. Holding her bag of supplies in front of her she instructed the skeleton to follow behind her knowing the shirt was growing a little damp. Not wanting it to get much worse the evening starting to cool down she said, "I'll see you at school tomorrow Atari, I need to get home, it's been too long of a day." She made her way home wanting really badly to take a normal bath and crawl into bed. Once she got home after locking her door she did just that happy the day was finally over passing out once she had the covers over her.

The four of them (including the skeleton) exited the baths. Luckily, they did not run into the owner. Explaining what happened might have angered him enough to sue them for the disturbance. As they rejoined Ryoshi, who waited patiently outside of the bathhouse, Matsu gave his wolf companion a 'V' for victory sign. The wolf responded with an uninterested look. Again, this caused Matsu to squat on the ground with a sad aura around him. With a last farewell, Elizabeth left with the skeleton towards her home. The sun had already set, and the weather was getting cold. Both Matsu, who was shirtless, and Atari, who only wore a vest and wet jeans, shivered when a small wind blew by. Ryoshi stared at the two and said, "Let's go home too." The two men looked at the wolf and towards each other, nodding in agreement. With that, they set their sights for home.
Once they reached home, Matsu told Atari, "I think you should take a bath first. Change out of those wet clothes and all. I'll grab a jacket for now." The younger sibling nodded and left for the bath, warming his body from the cold. He sighed in relief as his body heated up from the hot water. After a few minutes, he finished and ran another bath for his older sibling. He went downstairs and told Matsu that he ran another bath. The older sibling smiled fondly and just left without saying another word. As the older brother left the living room, Atari noticed a take out menu on the coffee table and already guessed that his brother had ordered some food for them. The rest of the night was simple, and Atari went to bed early since he had class the next day. Matsu cleaned up the mess and spent some time watching the tv before heading to bed. OOC: That is the end of their shopping adventure! Fun times! Now to head back to the University Grounds at A New Semester, A New Beginning.
