passed her a medical kit that was refreshed with supplies to give to the doctor's who had a low supply. " Here. The area over there needs them stat." She herself was needed nearby as well.

nods as she takes the kit, quickly turning to head back to the lines to take it to the other tent. She steps over some debris and passes the med kit along. As she returns to the main tent, she sees an injured-

soldier and helps him up enough to stumble to the medical tent.

finished off treating another casualty before seeing her and the injured soldier. She set up a spot for the soldier to lay down before going to treat him herself.

blinks at her, used to some of the other doctors who would only treat patients who were in really bad shape. "Need any help?"

treated everyone and that soldier the other brought in would be bad shape if they didn't treat him. She figured some cases were quick to get over with so others could use the freed up room after. " I'm okay_

_ for now. Check on the others since they seem to need support." She was more used to working alone.

usually worked on her own as well. She nods and resumes her duties, assisting others when needed.

continued to treat others and move those that were done treated out before bringing more injured in.

makes another run to the front line, helping pull a few of the badly injured to the main tent.

worked diligently as she didn't stop or skip a beat. She was glad the battle seemed to wane by now.

makes sure that all the seriously injured are being treated before being to treat a few minor injuries.

sent the doctors and medics with less experience to deal with the less serious cases. It was easier for someone to screw up if they didn't know what they were doing.

notices the changes and switches to a more serious case. She had the experience to help the more severely injured.

had been working for so long that she had to take a break eventually and asked for someone to switch with her.

One of the doctors tries to give Gjretrud a break but she ignores him and keeps working.

saw that and tapped on her shoulder, " Do you mind coming with me? We should have more than enough people working."

glances at her for a moment before turning back to her work.

sighs, " If you end up passing out, you're going to create more trouble." She reminded the other.

nods. "I know better than to push myself too hard."

chuckles, reminded of her own stubborness. " Then come with me. I need to check on the supplies and I can't do it alone."

frowns a little and glances around. Pretty much every patient was being treated. She sighs before moving away. "Fine."

smiles and led the way after, " Tak." She started to reorganize the supply tent, seeing how messy it was now.

follows her and starts to help clean the tent.

thought this would be less stressful at the very least.

didn't mind stress.

thought it was both a good and a bad thing. She pass the other a bottle of water after, " Stay hydrated." She reminded the other in a thoughtful manner.

glances at the water for longer than is necessary. "Thanks."

smiles as she gave a nod while putting certain boxes back to where they should have been. " Can you grab the charts for the boxes and start ticking off which supplies are in most demand?"

nods and grabs a few charts, checking inventories. She preferred doing more hands on help but she didn't mind doing things like this.

thought it was more calming and a change in routine rather than the usual blood and guts spewing everywhere.

...didn't mind the blood and guts. She was used to it.

couldn't read minds obviously but she wanted to at least ease a mind or two. War wasn't pretty for sure.

moves to another box, marking a few totals.

put everything in order as she did an inventory check on her own side of the tent.

keeps a list of items that needed replacing as she finished up her side.

glanced over to the other as she was just finishing up as well. " I can pass them on to the person in charge. Everything should be accounted for."

nods and passes the paperwork to her.

thanked her after as she looked through it, just to double check.

..."I'll be returning back to the medical tent."

glanced over, with an affirmative nod with no objections " Alright. I'll see you in a bit then."

nods and starts walking back.

went back to the tent after she was done. She wondered if he other had gone straight back to work.

had gone right back to work, a few other nurses watching her.

decided to watch as well seeing she had nothing better to do.

notices everyone watching her and glances at the others. "..."

laughs at that, knowing the other was probably uncomfortable and had them deal with an assortment of tasks so she didn't have to be watched.

resumes her work, trying to ignore the other nurses.

kept an eye on her just in case. She went through the charts of the worst cases first to see what other treatment could be done.

could handle things just fine on her own.

could tell but she always had an extra precaution for everything. Being two steps ahead was a personal preference.

moves to another patient, still avoiding talking to any nurses more than necessary.

thought she was a rather interesting young woman.

didn't think she was. She just was herself.

stretched as things seemed to have calm down by now in her own opinion. There were only one or two injured soldiers coming in.

notices that all of the patients were being helped. She checks the time and figures that she should eat or sleep soon.

popped by as she was getting together all the reports and lists she had to hand in. " Go and take your break. Roll call will be later in the evening."

nods and starts to walk towards the mess hall.

did the final check ups as she passed her duties to another doctor in charge before going to hand in her own reports and such.

sits by herself in the mess hall, glaring at a few men who tried to sit nearby.

plopped right down next to the other with an optimistic grin as she shooed off the other males. " Found you~"

stares at her, a little surprised, before returning to her meal.

smiles as she started eating as well, " You feeling alright there? Sorry about earlier since I should have stopped people from watching you."

shrugs. "I don't really care."

blinks, " You sure? You seemed pretty bothered by that earlier."

"They have more important things to be doing, that's all."

smiles, " That's it? I thought they were all amazed by your skill like I was."

eats in silence, not really knowing how to react to that.

ate contently, wanting to be good company. " I think you're a good person. A skilled one too in my opinion from all those that I've seen from the field."

nods slowly. "Thank you."

smiles warmly at that, " No need to thank me. Just take pride in the work you do."

finishes her food in silence. She wasn't used to being complimented.

quite bubbly about it as she liked to encourage others. She finished her food watch the other happily. " So how long have you been working here?"

"I started at this base a few months ago but I can't remember when I joined the military."

nods, " So you're new and already adjusted to it so well? I wish I could be as good as you. It's still hard for me to sleep with all the sounds you hear day in, day out."

frowns for a second. "I am not new, I used to serve on a base at the old line. I am used to the sounds."

chuckles, " I meant adjusting to the different areas. The sound vary from place to place and are never the same."

shrugs. "It all sounds the same to me."

smiles, " That's good. I'm probably the one that's most sensitive to all the sounds. It terrible really." She admitted wistfully.

starts to stand up, picking up her dishes.

followed her after, doing the same seeing she had nothing better to do. " Are you heading back to work after?" She was curious seeing the other was so hardworking.

nods. "My break is over."

frowns, " Just be careful that you don't overwork." She didn't want to see the other sick.

puts her dishes away and nods. "I know better than to do that."

chuckles, " Good. I've seen more cases than not of medics and nurses doing that." She put away her own dishes as well.

starts walking back to the medical tent. "I am not like that."

stayed beside the other, " I know. I can tell you're a veteran."

nods slowly as she walks. "I am."

smiles, keeping quiet after. She didn't really want to rant but she could tell the other's interest in her was waning.

had little interest in things other than working. Though she didn't mind talking with Dorthe, she just wasn't very good at socializing.

glanced over to the other after a while, " Do you come from the North as well?"

blinks at her. "Of course I do. Everyone here has."

nods, " I meant like northern parts of the country. Not everyone is born here though, some are immigrants."

shakes her head. "My parents were from the far north. I was born near the village this war started at."

nods, " Which village? I've lived around these parts for a while now."

"Oslo. It was destroyed in the first battles." ((And I have zero imagination right now orz))

nods slowly, " It was a pretty town. I remember visiting it often when I was younger." ((Dun worry. I don't have any imagination either xD))

nods very slowly, her attitude growing colder at talking about her home town.

could tell, " Have you visited Copenhagen? Its a bit more south."

shakes her head. "I haven't had the chance."

smiles, " Its close to the water and where I was born. It used to be a fishing town but now a days they're turned it into a military harbour. I can show you it when the war is over if possible."

glances at her before looking back to the path. "That might be nice."

nods, " It'll be a change in scenery at the very least." She joked lightly.

didn't bat an eye at the joke but nods. "Yes."

smiles more, " A lot less gloomier too probably."

walks to the medical tent and steps inside. "I suppose."

followed behind the other to not obstruct the entrance. " Do you like the sea by any chance though? I know Oslo was by water too."

nods slowly. "Water is nice." She pauses before starting to do some nightly rounds. It was usually slower at night.

followed beside the other, still on break but chatted up some patients. " Have you ever gone sailing then?"

checks the pulse of a patient. "Not that I remember but I probably have."

smirks, " I think we can go some time since there's a nice lake nearby."

to recheck the pulse. "I would like that."

checked the other arm to confirm it. " Then how about in a few days when there aren't any operations or battles taking place?"

glances at her, surprise visible on her face. "You mean... so soon?"

nods, " Why not? The weather seems to be really good these days so might as well make the most of it."

never really did anything off duty... "I will have to think about it."

smiles, " Alright. Give me a heads up soon so I can borrow the boat. The lake is owned by our side but its better to get permission sometimes."

nods, slight frown on her face.

glanced over, " What's wrong?"

shakes her head. "It's nothing."

smiles, " Alright then."

moves on to the next patient, checking his vitals.

stuck around seeing she had nothing better to do.

finishes her rounds and looks around the tent to see if anyone needed any help.

thought everything seemed okay for now. They were either tired or passed out.

takes one final look around before getting ready to leave.

looks over to her, " You resting for the night?"

nods. "Don't want to overwork myself after all."

chuckles, " If you say so. I'll walk you back since I'm hitting the hay for the night as well."

shrugs and starts to walk towards the nurses tent.

followed beside her in the meantime.

doesn't say anything as she walks.

didn't mind it at all

didn't feel like talking now. She was still kind of tired from all the talking before.

quiet for the other out of respect.

appreciated the quiet. She walks to the nurse tent and pauses. "Good bye."

waves, " Godnat." She smiles before starting to head back to her own resting place.

nods and steps inside the tent, moving to her area quietly so as not to disturb the nurses who were already asleep.
