Well, ardent is also sporting the same briefs he had when he came. Maybe they are self-cleaning.

Possibly. I remember a story line in Times Like This where time traveler Cassie Wells discovers that people in the future wear underwear that is self cleaning which makes using the toilet unnecessary, however, I believe this was possible through nanotechnology so if the Night Walker took everything Gavia had on her person it probably took any that were in her clothes. It took her frock so I assume so.

It would seem that in addition to her being able to physically heal Gavia has miraculously coped with her loss quickly enough. The wonders of genetic engineering.
Good for her. I wasn't really looking forward to a whole bunch of strips with her mopey and depressed. She's determined to get back home and get what she lost.

I think it's a miracle she can move as well as she can. My sister was in and out of consciousness for 2 weeks at a hospital and had to have rehab throughout the summer to properly walk again. Some of it was because she had broken her arm, too, but she really did need a lot of help getting around for a bit.

After three weeks without drinking and eating she would not only be skin and bones, but also six feet under the ground. Without drinking you die within a few days. There is no sign of intravenal nourishment, so the group must have gotten something into her. Water and soup, likely. A rather messy process with an unconcious person. And yes, there must have been some bodily waste. So cleaning her has been unevitable.
Caring for an unconcious person outside a hospital is a very difficult and unpleasant process, a fact mostly ignored by writers in fiction. A word that immediately comes to my mind here is "diapers". So I don´t blame Jeph for ignoring it too.

I was thinking/wonderin the same... But since this is sci-fi the theories as to why are endless.
Perhaps the shock of nanobots leaving her body temporarily slowed/stopped her metabolic state. She may also had been partially conscious—enough to eat/drink, but not to talk or be coherent. As for diapers? Perhaps she's wearing them. If we are far enough in the future for fancy weapons and nanobots and super-enhanced (possibly immortal) ladies, I would not be surprised if someone had a stash of futuristic super-thin adult dipes kicking around for emergencies.

--- Quote from: Storel on 30 May 2016, 17:35 --- Come to think of it, though, if she had no skin pigment then her skin should have a kind of pinkish glow, due to blood in her capillaries actually showing through the skin.

Which is how she's shown.

Maybe on your monitor, but I'm not seeing it. She looks pure white to me.
