Isabella didn't bother to lock the door behind her as she stripped out of the blood caked clothing and slipped herself into the water. Her hands were shaking as she reached for the soap, her arms shaking as she looked down at one of her fingers. It was broken, nearly shattered if anyone wanted the truth. But she wouldn't say a word,.. it hurt-- it ached like a bitch and she wasn't about to tell anyone what happened.
Taking a breath she slipped deep into the water and closed her eyes, letting the water in the tiny wooden tub closer around her. Teeth chattering she sat up, truthfully the tub was warm she'd done that on her own because she'd be damned if she was going to put herself in cold water. Her face was still caked with blood and she used one hand to scrub it. She was a mess, her face was cut on her jaw, her arms where bruised and she had open wounds on her back where the steel knuckles had ripped into her skin.
Did she tell anyone? No. She'd die before. The young woman pulled her knees to her chest and set her head against them. Right... she'd be alright... there wasn't a god damn thing to worry about. She was in the lodging house, she'd gotten away alive. At least it wasn't as bad as last time. "Think I need a new career.." she mumbled darkly as she sat.

Raven opened up the door to the washroom and just stared at Picks sitting there in the tub bruised, bleeding, beaten. She blinked and then said, "Holy shit..."

"Shut the damn door," she all but growled, hearing it open. The woman who entered had her eyes drawn to her and she grumbled, dropping her head back to her knees. Well at least it wasn't her brother-- or Conlon. Like she really wanted to explain this. ".. Christ it hurts.."

Raven shut the door and then grabbed a chair, shoving it up under the doorknob. "What the hell happened?" She asked her, moving over to the tub. She grabbed a clean rag from the towel rack.

She lifted her head and looked over at the other girl, Isa didn't find the need to point out that she was naked-- or scramble to cover herself. Everything hurt too much, "Ran into Blackie... one a the boys I used to run with. Fucked me up good... " But she got away and was still alive, that was a bonus. "Think my fingers' broken."

"It's definitely broken," Raven dipped the rag into the water and gently started to clean the wounds on her back. She knew the girl would never be able to get to them on her own. "I dunno how to fix a broken finger though," Rae said with a sigh. This girl was lucky she was alive.

Her jaw locked as Rae started to clean the wounds on her back, pressing her face into her knees as she shook a little. Shivering, she was lucky to be alive and she knew it. "...I'll have to get Tristan or someone to set it so I can splint it. Bucky will hit the roof I can't ask him.." Maybe Jimmy'd do it. She needed someone with a strong stomach. "I'm going to hell... really.."

"Shut up, you ain't going to hell. Tristan'll do it," Rae said as she continued to make sure the wounds were cleaned properly. "Turn your face."

She lifted her head and turned it, hissing a bit as she felt the sting. She was going to be sore as hell and worse off if anything got infected, she was aware of it too. Too bad she didn't trust doctors, nor did she have the money to afford one that didn't operate out of the back of a butchery. "If I keep sayin' christ-- and jesus and fuck within the same sentence I might. God damn.. " wincing she swallowed.

Raven stared at her for a second and laughed, "You're worried about that? I don't think he gives a shit one way or the other," She held Picks' chin gently in her hand and tenderly wiped the blood clean.

Her lips quirked and then she winced at the pain, letting Rae clean her face before she sighed and tried not to move too much. "Honestly if God exists he stopped caring what I did ages ago, ouch." She flinched, unable to help herself. "Don't tell Bucky alright? Or Cor... I dont need them hovering over me like nanny nurse maids."

"don't matter if I tell em or not, soon as they see the shape of you they're gonna know something happened and nanny nursemaid ya go death anyways," she said. Rae set the rag down on the floor and sighed.

She groaned and shoved her face into her knees. There was no way she was going to let them hover, she'd run for a bit, but what good would that actually do? This wasn't her intention-- any of this. Glancing at Rae she sighed, "It really looks that bad?" Last time she'd been nearly dead-- at least this wasn't as bad.

"yeah," she said with a sigh, "but you know it always looks worse than it actually is, just lay Los for awhile."

"After I get Tristan to reset my finger I'll lay low," hell she'd find a bed and sleep for a week everything hurt. Picks wrinkled her nose and toes in the water that was starting to cool. "-- like Brooklyn needs any more trouble, right?"
