Dark Veil 2

[CommanderLeahShepard]

Pulling Cordelia up, I set off back to the (brute?) room and see Chiyoko and Aions are up. Alex looked like she was still fast asleep. "Hey guys."

 

[nekosync]

I follow him to the Brute room, standing close behind him as he talks. He's quite tall, compared to me; but then again, everyone is.

 

[Jawile]

"Hi." I get out of my bed, wiping sweat off my forehead. "What's up?"

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"Not much." I say. "Are you okay?"

 

[nekosync]

I quietly listen to their conversation, but I think the guys in the Brute room can't see me since I'm behind James.

 

[Jawile]

"Yeah, I think." I clutch my head, becoming more tense from a headache. I walk over to the coffee maker. "Want some?" I ask, making a cup of coffee.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"Sure. Thanks." I say and deliberately flop down onto Alex's bed, waking her.
"James, why do you never let me sleep?" I say tiredly and crawl under the covers.

 

[TheCreeperHugz]

"Hi James, Cordelia," I mutter, concentrating on my drawing. I rub out the hair once again, still not satisfied. I glance up at Aions, trying to imitate his messy hair.

 

[Jawile]

After a while I have two cups of coffee. I give one to James, and sit down on the edge of my bed drinking my own with a tired grin.

 

[nekosync]

"Good morning, Alex." I say cheerily.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"Morning." I say tiredly to Cordelia as I come up from under my covers. "James, your sitting on my legs."
"Yeah I know." I chuckle, not moving and take a drink of coffee.

 

[TheCreeperHugz]

Once I finish his hair, I sketch the neck and shoulders, coming down to the bottom of the page. I put the sketchbook down next to me while I search for a cyan pencil in the box of coloured pencils, not realising that the others would be able to see it.

 

[nekosync]

I flip my mass of curls over my shoulder, and flounce to the window to draw the curtains.

 

[Jawile]

I look at her drawing on the floor.
"What's that?" I ask, headache wearing off. I rub my eyes and stand up.

 

[TheCreeperHugz]

"Just a quick sketch..." I mutter, quickly picking it up.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

Not really caring about the picture, I flop back down, arms stretched on my bed. When Cordelia opens the blinds, I narrow my eyes and put my hands over them. "That's to bright!"

 

[Jawile]

I laugh. "Alright then. Do you guys have any plans for today?" I ask.

 

[nekosync]

"You'll adjust to the brightness." I say, smiling at Alex.

 

[TheCreeperHugz]

With the cyan pencil, I start to draw the eyes, trying to capture the same sparkle that is in Aions'. No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to get it right, even with constantly glancing up at him.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"I better..." I mumble, opening my eyes again. I am still unable to move with my legs trapped. "Jesus James move your fat a**!"
I chuckle and stay still. "That's rude, you have to say the magic word." Turing to Aions I shake my head. "I don't know."
