ON:

After a lengthy shower that was hot enough to redden her skin, Ro stepped from the shower stall and air dried. The shower mat caught the droplets as she bent at the waist and finger combed her hair forward, giving it a good tousle before she stood up straight and brushed it out, letting the hair also air dry. The sonic settings on the shower kept her body free from hair except on her head. Eyebrows and mane. As she continued to see to her hygiene in various steps Green would take up the brush occasionally and brush out her locks again. Keeping her hair braided up all day, every day, was expedient and utilitarian. So, once it was dry enough Ro once again braided her hair up in Dutch braids.

Once the hair and body were seen to, Green went out to her living room/common space and placed a towel on the carpet dead center of the chamber, sitting down lotus upon it once it was set. She preferred to meditate and commune with the Core while nude when she was alone and could fully immerse herself. Settling her mind and body, Ro felt the Core come around her, like a warm embrace, seeing to her bodily Control and extra sensory input without much effort. Green focused her mind on her children, the twins she had left with their father Dwight and the insectoids he had 'joined'. Their children were joiners, as well, simply due to using the insectoid methods for gestation, which were more than adequate for the well being of her twins. She could feel the contentment of her children and the love and care they were receiving from the insectoids, who they were now a part of as members of the 'hive'. Ro could feel them through the Core, and they her, which brought love and joy from both directions, even causing Ro to smile even while in meditation. They knew their mother, knew who she was and cared for her as much as she did them. The in vitro way they were completing their development was secondary to the maternal connection they had with their mother. Being WITHIN her did not matter. Being WITH her in mind and spirit, that was what mattered.

After an hour of communing with her children and sharing their feelings, Green pulled away and let the Core settle down, her eyes opening as she got to her feet. Collecting her towel Green went into her bedroom and got dressed, choosing the vest variant over top of her red mock neck shirt. As a Human with the same attributes as an Augment, Green required very little sleep, but sleep she must. Going out to her living room again Ro laid back and stretched out on her sofa and allowed her body to relax and fall into sleep. It did not take long since she had been going at full throttle for the past few days. At this point in her life Rogue Green had no worries.
