[aphrodisiacs]

Date & Time: October 8, morning.
Location: Rudy's room.
Characters: The Arseman [ thearseman ] and Cock Monster [ aphrodisiacs ] … and Rudy Too, as well.
Summary: Alisha's had enough of being alone.
Warnings: Language. Stupidity. Marriage.

[ alisha sort of makes it a point to ignore rudy after they're exchange of texts detailing the kidnappings of last month, pre-shuffle to the moonbase. she's not sure why she does it; she wants to not be alone, yet, being around rudy terrifies her. ]

[ he knows a version of her that has yet to exist. like simon, she knows that she's being held to a shadow of herself that she may or may not blossom into under his eye. alisha's quite tired of disappointing. she's never enough, is she? never enough for simon to stick around, never enough for him to tell her exactly what happens so she can change his and her fates. she learns through the hard way, cold manipulation that takes place around christmas, and not quite understanding — and therefore rejecting and pushing away — people who apparently mean more to her than she can remember, like rudy. ]

[ it's why she barges into his unit, pushing open his door, in the early hours of the morning. she hasn't been able to sleep since the kidnapping, and since the weird werewolf thing … she doesn't feel safe. she's not even sure she'll feel safe with rudy — he's hopeless, even when there's two of him. but he's familiar, and, well, a friend, isn't he? it's about time she starts trusting him, anyway. he's all she has here. ]

Oi. Rudy. [ she really doesn't try to be quiet about it. ]
