"Sara please eat something" Ava whispers in Sara's ear
Sara waits a moment then asks "What did you do with the body"
Ava hesitates "We had Gideon incinerate the remains"
"Where are they now" Sara asks emotionless
"......in the trash chute" Ava says uneasily
"What?!" Sara's voice shakes
"We didn't-" Ava starts but Sara's already walking to the trash chute
"Sara" Ava yells chasing after her.
Zari opens her door and follows "What's wrong"
Sara rips open the trash chute going through old food leftovers and other foul things.
"What is Sara doing" Behrad puzzles
"I'm right here" Sara shoots back
"She's trying to find Bishop's ashes" Ava rubs her forehead
"Why" Rory grumbles
"Sara do you want to answer this one" Ava asks
"Because who dumps somebody's ashes in a dumpster" Sara collects the ashes in a bag she sifted from the trash
"I don't know an assassin" Astra shrugs
Ava glares
Sara hops out of the trash chute and shoves the bag into Astra's hands then retreats back to her bedroom.
"Please take the jump ship and scatter those" Ava says before taking off after Sara
When Ava enters the room Sara's back in bed
Ava joined Sara even though the amount of germs and filth overwhelmed her
Ava tries to think of what to say " They are scattering his ashes"
"Good" Tears drip down her face
"I'm worried" Ava whispers putting her arm over Sara
"Don't be" Sara wipes her eyes
"I'm also worried that being trapped on a time ship is not good for you" Ava holds her hand.
Sara doesn't say anything.
"I understand you don't want to be around other people because you are afraid you will hurt them, but this wasn't your fault-" Ava is cut off
"Yeah, because its not like I stabbed him" Sara replies sarcastically.
"It wasn't your fault, He trapped you on a ship and you were probably terrified and you are figuring out your new abilities, and he dug up some old memories... Maybe it would really help if you went back to national city." Ava holds her
"Maybe that would be nice" Sara whispers after a couple moments of silence
"Yes, but you might want to shower first" Ava helps her up
"How long have you held off on asking that" Sara smiles then it turns to a frown remembering why she didn't ask sooner.
Ava starts to walk out the door to get new sheets but Sara lunges and grabs her hand.
"I'm just getting s-" Ava explains but Sara whimpers "Please don't leave"
Ava had never seen Sara so upset or vulnerable. Sara was usually able to pretend nothing bothered her and covered her pain and sorrow with witty responses but she could tell Sara was genuinely afraid to see her go.
"I won't" Ava kisses her forehead
Sara quickly slides off her clothes and grabs Ava's hand as soon as she finishes undressing and slowly walks into the shower.
Ava holds Sara as the warm water removes the blood coating the outside of her body.
After all of the blood came off of Sara and she stopped smelling like a rotting carcass, Ava stepped out of the shower and grabbed her towel and handed Sara hers.
"I love you so much" Sara starts to tear up letting go of her hand to get dressed.
