When Elle emerges, she doesn't look much like she did in the Bar a few days ago: Her hair is down, worn loose and somewhat tangled over her shoulders.

She's holding a hand towel, using it to scrub slightly at the back of her neck. The only thing apparent from her face is that she'd likely been scrubbing it with the towel a moment ago.
Her steps into the main room falter slightly when she sees X. She blinks from the other woman to the floor, and then back again.
