<strong>Kate Frost, Tickled Pink with the idea of Showing Amaya Foreman “The Ropes”</strong><br/><br/>“Pffft. Manual labor?<em>Please,</em>” Kate said with a giggling snort. “Not while I’m around, you won’t have to. Manual labor’s for suckers.” She batted her eyes flirtatiously at Amaya, giving the new nurse a wicked smile. “There’s many fun ways to get things done around here.”<br/><br/>Wiping the smile from her face, Kate turned to Head Nurse Fairchild, looking at her supervisor with a very grave, serious expression. “Don’t worry, I’ll be happy to teach Nurse Foreman the, um, ropes,” she said. “You can count on me, ma’am. And no shenanigans of any kind, or inappropriate breaks. None. I promise.”<br/><br/><em>And by none, I mean some,</em>Kate added silently.<em>And by some, I mean a lot…</em><br/><br/>Kate groaned and rolled her eyes as Head Nurse Fairchild announced the bed assignments. “Oh dear sweet hell, are you kidding?” she muttered. “Mrs. Staudemeyer is<em>back</em>? I thought we pawned her off on Radiology … guess they bounced her back …”<br/><br/>Sighing, Kate looked over at Amaya with an apologetic shrug. “Don’t worry. Not a big deal … like our fearless leader said, time to show you the ropes. And time to introduce you to your first gomere. It’ll make sense soon enough, don’t worry.”<br/><br/>Kate went to the main station, and grabbed two clipboards. She handed one of them to Amaya. “Right. Ready? Time to catch all the fun going on in B Ward! And let me know if you’ve got questions, happy to answer ‘em …”<br/><br/><em>You’re rambling</em>, Kate thought, as she headed to B Ward (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=96105.msg4183862#msg4183862) with Amaya.<em>And repeating yourself. Should’ve done one line of coke instead of two.</em>Kate really liked the new girl already, she hoped that she didn’t sound like a prattling idiot to her.
