【战锤40k同人作品翻译】Ennui 第十章：慰籍 Comfort(7)
Dipping the cloth into the water, I lifted it just as Alessandra turned, and she froze adorably as I sat up and slid closer her.
“Stay still, Cre’yth,” I commanded and, to my surprise, she actually did as I raised the damp cloth her face and began to clean it. “Your face is far too lovely to be covered in Ork.”
She made a small choking sound in the back of her throat as I went about the slow process of drawing the wet cloth over her cheek, rinsing it, repeating, and again, until her face was free of the filth. I moved to her hair next, the lovely pale hair that was currently stained a dirty brown with dried blood, and began washing that clean as well.
There was, I found, a certain satisfaction in this act. I had not been untruthful when I had answered Alessandra’s question as to why I was doing what I was doing. I wished to do something new, and for a creature like me, there were very few things that fit that particular descriptor.
This was new to us both, from the way she was acting, and as I cleaned her hair and face, I studied her features.
Alessandra was human and I suppose by human standards she was quite beautiful. Her face was pleasantly symmetrical but for a scattering of freckles across her cheeks and nose, and her cheeks had a gentle roundness to them that stole much of the severity from her expressions.
