Who: Alyssa and Q What: catching up over lunch Where: the Red Pepper When: backdated to Sat. lunch Warnings: should be low
Alyssa set down her paint brush and stared at her piece. It would need time to dry, but another painting done at least, which meant the Netherling felt okay about taking a few hours break to go get lunch with Q. Plus, Damien would be upset with her if she remained too focused and forgot to eat. And one thing the Red Queen knew? She preferred to not have Damien be cross with her.
Unfortunately, the artist didn't have time to shower, so she'd have a smear of paint on her face. Throwing on jeans and a backless sweater with room for her wings, Alyssa hurried to the Red Pepper so she'd be on time to meet Quentin. Sometimes, she lost track of time.
On her way, she looked forward to seeing Quentin. They'd only recently started becoming friends when the Dome sent him home and Alyssa had missed Q. Also, her stomach reminded her she hadn't eaten in like eighteen hours. Shit.
When she finally made it to the Red Pepper she stepped into the warmth and looked around for Q.
