Piper had either outgrown the fear that came with being held in captivity or she was very good at hiding it. In the grand scheme of things, neither mattered, yet it was good to know the stakes. If there were reasons to fear Connor, they needed to surface quickly so she could brace for any consequences. Her demeanor was that of a spoiled child, all wants and vague desires with no means of backing up the questions and comments. Even when it came to whether or not she appreciated the pet name she was given, she seemed aloof, going so far as to ignore the title when it was mentioned. She had given her name, and whether this was respected or forgotten would be proven in time, as it seemed she would not be receiving any aid in escaping. Alas, he had now wrapped her back in a towel, and whisked her from the tub of lukewarm water, back to the bed which she had earlier become acquainted with.
It was a sprawl that she found herself settling into, beneath a cloth too large for someone her size, limbs spread and slender so their appendages poked out the sides. "Fine." It was said as a solid end to his miss wording, as if she could be persuaded to ignore the slight in favor of other activities involving him going away for the time being. Company didn't suit her attitude at the moment. Not that this could be surprising, given how limited her human contact had been for the past several... Well, it had been a decently long period of isolation. Piper couldn't recall how long exactly, but long enough that the nail polish was stripped from her nails, and the baby fat she had once harbored was now replaced with a leaner, gaunter appearance. Given a few more days, and she would resemble an anti-anorexia ad. For not, she was just twiggy and the definition was visible by grace of bone structure alone.
From the distance, she could make out the conversation from Connor's side. There was no privacy when one dealt with Piper, as she was naturally curious, and inevitably, keen to listen in on things she needn't be involved in. His order was so short, she almost questioned whether there was someone else on the other end of the call, but she wasn't entirely loopy and could figure they were a prepared lot who knew what to bring and when to bring it. After all, she had been an avid television watcher for her teenage years, and in every rich household scenario, house keepers and help provided their employers a decadent escape from whatever harshness reality countered with. Piper had been envious at the time, but now lived in a dream state where she was still half hoping she could wake up and be back home.
Was this the price she paid for the 'good life'?
Hues scanned bruises on her exposed shins, contemplative of what may have occurred to battered the pale pigment so entirely, but Connor returned before an answer could be settled on. News of clothing had turned into a bit of a confusing ordeal it seemed because he initially said there was nothing available in her closet, and this implied she had a closet. One ginger brow raised suspiciously, and the act was comical considering her portrait was half buried in the bedspread. "When did I get a closet?" Taking a deep breath as the woman shifted to sit up, the towel was wrapped tightly around her shoulders to form a tent-like hideaway so she wasn't presenting herself. Even if he had seen everything in great detail during the bath, she still remained as modest as would be expected from a woman partially nude in the company of a stranger.
"I wouldn't mind wearing something of yours? I don't know. Any clothing would be good. I don't care what it looks like-" She felt strange having to explain the value of clothing to Connor, but he seemed to need some sort of encouragement. "But I'm asking for something to wear so I'm not sitting here in a towel. I'm sure whatever you have to offer would be fine."
Piper returned to her silence when she was finished, staring him down with emerald orbs that refused to leave his features.
