She was always up early, it took hours to get ready and as such she had to be up before anyone else was to secure the bathroom and make sure she didn't monopolize it to the point where others could get nothing done. Thus it was that the red-head was awake, trudging her way to the bathroom with a towel in one hand and a bag of toiletries in the other. The girl stared into her reflection in the mirror, sleep still clouding her eyes and her face looking fairly bored with the morning routine. Still, beauty must be maintained and the price for it was waking up earlier then she'd want to normally. Turning on the hot water to the sink the pyro dipped her hands under the stream, letting out a soft squeal when the water was yet ice cold. She kept forgetting that water doesn't start coming out hot immediately, but instant gratification got the better of her once more and she cursed under her breath.
"What does a girl have to do to get some hot water around here?!" She snarled at no one, fairly certain none of her roommates were even awake yet but grumpy none the less. Scowling at the water she stuck one hand under the running stream, lips turning down in a frown when it still was not the skin reddening heat she was used to using. She must have been concentrating on the heat pretty hard because the next few minutes resulted in chaos in the bathroom. She was tapping the water with her fingers, waiting for it to get where she needed it and growing more frustrated by the moment, even though only a minute or so had passed since she'd turned the water on at all. Patience was not one of her virtues. The first ping from the metal didn't really register to the girl, a huff escaping her, however the loud crack did. When the metal of the faucet split, releasing a small bout of flame then spraying water into her face and into the air she let out the loudest shriek she could muster. The red-head clasped her hands over the break in the metal, trying to hold it back and instead sending water across the room. One hand reached for the knob, twisting it in vain, she'd broken it soundly it seemed. "OH YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" she yelled, still trying to hold back the torrent of water with her hands and failing miserably as she looked for the water shut off valve. There had to be one. You can't have a bathroom without water shut offs. WHERE WAS IT? She could only hope no one would hear her and investigate yet, it would be too embarrassing.
