[As she watches her go, Tess looks down at the spot Ellie touched, brushes over it with her own hand before finger curl, clench once that door is closed and the water's on. Maybe she would have laughed, but she finds herself more uneasy, nervous. She goes to clean up a little at least, make things easy on herself by getting busy.
When Ellie's back out, clean and dressed, Tess is sitting on the bed with the door open and room welcoming. She's got the tablet balanced on a knee and yeah. She's wearing one of the spare shirts Joel had laying around. It's warm, and maybe it's a stupid as hell security blanket for her at this point. Closing the message log and making it look like she's been doing something else, Tess look over, calls out when she hears footsteps.]
