If Isa was going to be a sitting duck she was going to be armed, she'd managed to get herself downstairs again with some work and now she was digging around for a knife. This was Brooklyn, most of them were armed to the teeth anyway but she wanted to be ready for just about anything.
Grunting she moved around before dropping herself down to an overstuffed couch that had seen better days and curled up into it, knife firm in her hand. Right... she wasn't going back up stairs for a bit. Damn those bastards, if she were better she'd gut them like pigs for putting her in this position.

Jimmy came walking into the lodging house with his hands in his pockets. He stopped when he saw Isa sitting there with a knife in her hands. He raised a brow at her.

She didn't notice him but she seemed content, her brow raising when she noticed someone watching her. She let out a breath, "I don't have the energy for a rematch... call it a draw, okay?"

"Sure, put the knife down," He said casually.

She gave him a scowl then set the knife on the floor beside her and leaned her head back against the cushion. "Feel better?"

"Kinda," He said with a shrug and then shuffled his feet awkwardly.

She shifted a bit on the couch and looked up at him, tilting her head to the side and giving him room to sit. "... can come over I'm not looking to bite right now." No she was looking for a nap.

Jimmy smiled and sat down beside her, "How you feeling?" He asked her, careful not to bang into her.

She shrugged one shoulder, "Better.. but I hate being this weak... like I got hit by a train and after the cars hit me the conductor put it in reverse to do the whole thing over again..."

"Probably why you should be upstairs in bed, sleeping," He smirked at her.

"Oh har har... mastered getting down and not back up," she shrugged her shoulders. "Figured if Brooks was pretty much at war I needed something to defend myself with. I feel like a sitting duck, I don't have my speed-- which makes me ornery.."

"so you head to the lobby with a knife even though you can't fight?" he asked her.

"I'd put up the best one I could.. I couldn't get back up the stairs all the way I needed a break before I tried to scale the stairs again. Don't look at me like that.."

"Uh huh, so you can't walk up a set of stairs, but you can stab someone?" Clearly he should have realized this sort of logic.

She elbowed him and then winced, slumping against his arm and shrugging her shoulders. "Seemed like a good idea at the time.. stop looking at me like that." She knew what he was doing, and it made her feel like she'd been an idiot. "I can't stay put... this is mostly my fault.."
