[Roleplay] The Aftermath

[toxapex]

"Oh, sorry." I say, putting her down on her feet. I catch her as she begins to crumple to the floor, exlaiming, "What the ****?!" I look at her closely and pull back her eyelids to make sure she's not just screwing with me... nope, she's definitely still asleep... what a strange person... I sling her back onto my shoulder and continue rooting through the shelves of the store... slightly unsettled.

(Just pretend Jean was walking behind you guys)

I walk behind the others on my own, I play with my fingers and sigh.

 

[Naiad]

((Everyone's part of Wishy's Star Co. omfg .-. ))

I trail behind Helix and watch as he enters an abandoned convenience store. I really don't trust this guy.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

I catch up to Sai, noticing her trail behind, despite the fact she had a go at me earlier for being rich, I go to see what's up. "What's up?"

 

[Naiad]

"The sky. Not much up there anymore." I point up.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

I do a half arsed snort of laughter and fold my arms, not sure how to respond.

 

[Naiad]

"What d'you need, kid?"

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"I'm not a 'kid', just because I am small doesn't make me a kid. In fact, I'm probably older than you." I say with a slight scowl. "And I don't need anything, just wanted to talk with you."

 

[Naiad]

I shrug, "Alright." The kid's afraid of dirt, AND he's sensitive. Well. Ethan's got his work cut out for 'im.

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"Do you have a problem with me or something?" I ask, trying to stay calm. "Because I was just trying to be nice."

 

[Naiad]

I shrug again, "It doesn't really matter now, does it? Not like you'll be taking flights to Paris or Milan while the rest of us are struggling to survive."

(*pushes you for backstory*)
"What the hell are you talking about?" I ask narrowing my eyebrows.

(I more or less live my life on Tumblr)

 

[toxapex]

(lol, I use tumblr too much)

I hear some talking outside, and draw nearer to the door to listen, pretending to check a magazine rack. It's Sai and that other one. Jean, I think.

 

[Naiad]

I narrow my eyes, "$40,000. I had $40,000 in student loans. Hell, I wasn't even done with school yet. People like you spend that money in a day and never think about the rest of us. You will never have to work a part time job to earn money. You will never have to watch, helpless, as your mother calls you for money everyday. You will never understand me."

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

"I...er... Sorry about that" I look away awkwardly. "But it's not like I'm rich any more." I turn back a little more confidently. "And it wasn't me you were in debt too, so don't just assume I am some stuck up snob, I'm not... really."

 

[Naiad]

I sigh and run my hands through my hair, "Just.....give me time."

(( whoop it's 4 am shoot. I'll stay up for a bit longer, but then I'm off. ))

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

Feeling the awkwardness I just start to back away from her. "Okay, er, sorry."

 

[Naiad]

I look at him and offer a weak smile, "Thanks. I just... can't handle a real conversation with you right now. Maybe some other day."

 

[toxapex]

I listen to them confront each other and mutually back off. Nothing that draws my interest too much. Pretending to have just noticed them, I walk out of the store. "Hey guys, we're in here."

 

[CommanderLeahShepard]

(( whoop it's 4 am shoot. I'll stay up for a bit longer, but then I'm off. ))

(It's 12:30 PM for me, I stayed up until 2:50 AM last night trying to not die of laughter from those GIFS last night so no one would wake up.)
I nod at her and move away from her slightly.
