"There's nothing with me, you're just filthy, and I'm trying to get clean."
She breathes a subtle sigh of relief when Catra steps back, though it's quickly ecliped by a pinch of guilt at her stomach. Now she's upsetting Catra. This isn't what she wanted, why is she being like this, why is her heart beating so loud--
Catra's hands press to her back with little warning, and Adora's shoulders hitch up to her ears. But she really has no room for complaint this time. Because this was the issue, right, and now Catra's working to amend it.
She should just-- relax. Exhale slow and heavy through her nose, will her shoulders into sloping back down. She'll mutter a "thanks", too, before going back to tending to her hair-- give herself something to focus on, and put her hands to work.
It's good to keep occupied. Get her mind off Catra's hands.
