Emma is a little..shocked by Lorettas demeanor. The arm around the shoulders is enticing, a little too enticing.  If Emma today, went back intime to warn Emma six months ago, that sometimes she’d just ‘need a hug’, past Emma would have bludgeoned present Emma to death with anything at hand. She wants the hug, her heart strings tug and more or less beg her to wrap her arms around the ghoul and pull her into a firm embrace.<br/><br/>She doesn’t she can’t let her self. There’s too much of this mushy sentimental horse shit permeating the air already. She could die tomorrow..so could Loretta, and she still can’t just tell her friend how she feels. The  boney cheek pressed against her own is a bit –too – much to resist. A tiny little moan of contentment sneaks its way over her lips, and into the night air.  She grins a bit at the slight warmth of the other woman,  and can't help but wrap her thin, scarred and tattooed arms around Lorettas bony frame.  She sighs contently , but only for a second, as anything more would show -some- weakness...some unspoken admittance of needing someone.  She pulls back and decides Loretta's right,finishing this up and then resting would be the best option…as then she’d be able to burrow into the other woman while she slept and pretend it was innocent.<span style="color: blue">“C’mon.  Let’s get these in place.”  </span><br/><br/>Emma starts to dig holes and plant the small proximity bombs all over the field.  All 8 are planted within a half hour. Emma is covered in dust and grime and shes been relatively quiet the entire time.   She stops in the low light and looks over to  Loretta who’s  working away on …something- Emma wasn't sure.   But something made Emma stop... The ghoul was all she had. Maybe Loretta deserved to hear that.<span style="color: blue">“Hey..shuffler.” </span>she starts as she dusts her hands off, using the derogatory term for a ghoul as a pet name.<span style="color: blue">“Ya’ wanna catch a few winks next ta’ a muddy convict?”</span>She waggles her brow suggestively. Suggesting what..she isn’t sure.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
