[Gaius slept like a log in spite of telling himself he'd planned to wake her up early as a revenge for some long forgotten transgression. Besides, it was his job to make her feel like a princess right? He almost swears that was somewhere in one of his many promises to her. All this flitted through his half awake brain as he groggily registered the sunlight from the window, the empty spot on the bed next to him, and the sound of running water.]

Fraulein's taking a shower?

[Ooh... tempting... very tempting. Yet at the same time she might have a slight hangover in spite of the water he made her drink before bed. Still... might be worth the pain if she felt like returning the favor for last night... He seemed to recall there was also a hot tub as well as a shower, so if she was feeling a little prudish this morning...]

Worth a shot, right?

[He rolled out of bed, still wearing his pants he was wearing the night before, and he strolled on over to the bathroom, politely knocking softly in case she had a headache.]

Hey Asuka, mind if I come in? I promise to be on my best behavior if you want me to be... or my worst if that's your preference.
