Alicia Clark listens to the radio (totheradio) wrote in eotic,
Looking up at the sound of her husband's arrival, the smile Alicia gave him was genuine and after kicking off her shoes she shifted to lean against him, her feet curling up on the couch. She was careful to not go near Lucille, trying to not even have the weapon in her line of sight. Oh she understood the need for it, could appreciate the effect it had and how it kept people in line. That didn't mean she had to like the brutality of the bat.
"There wasn't much of interest out there," she half shrugged with the shoulder not pressed against Negan. "A couple of dead to finish off but that was about it." It did give her a slight grim satisfaction when she got the chance to slice her blade into the skull of one of those dead monsters. The ones on the fence were useful for their safety, but the ones out in the wild, well, those were fair game. "Least it stops my skills from going rusty." That was one thing she never wanted to allow to happen. The Sanctuary seemed both safe and strong, but there was always a chance they might lose this home and be forced to survive out there for a while. Alicia refused to become someone who would be a burden to the group if that happened.
"How about you?" She shifted slightly so she could look up at him, enjoying the comforting scent of leather. It had become something she always associated with Negan now, and she rather liked it. "You're not working yourself too hard, right?" Because she did actually worry sometimes. Negan and a select few others among the Saviors had, despite all her efforts to avoid it, become people she cared about. And with the constant threats surrounding them, from the living as much as the dead, Alicia did worry.
"Of course if you are," her tone did take on a slightly playful edge. "I could always help you relax." If someone had told her years before that she would end up one of a harem of wives to a man twice her age, she would have laughed in their face. And yet, here she was. And it was a far better living arrangement than she had had for a very long time.
