WHO Jesse Custer & Ariadne WHAT breaking up :/ WHEN Saturday night WHERE Jesse's house WARNINGS TBD, probably just awkward feels STATUS Closed | Incomplete
Ariadne had been thinking about this particular conversation for a while now, she just hadn't had the courage to follow through with actually having it. The more she read the passages in the Quran that Amaar recommended, and the more she spent time away from the Mosque, the more she realized that she did want to explore that part of herself more. And to do that? She knew she needed to stop with the casual sex, at least for a little while. Really, that meant 'breaking up' with Jesse, because she wasn't really hooking up with anyone else.
She didn't want to make a huge deal out of it, but Ariadne also didn't want to just ghost him. That was just rude and wouldn't necessarily even work given the Dome. There weren't that many people in Madison after all. He was home at least, so she swung by Hinkles and picked up their usual order before she made her way over to the house. She parked out front like usual and just took a minute to give herself a peptalk in the rearview mirror. She could do this. It was the right thing to do. He'd understand that she was exploring her faith, surely. With those mental reassurances, she took a deep breath and headed for the front door to ring the bell.
"Hey," she said with a small smile when he opened the door for her. "I didn't wake Aiden, did I?" She hoped not, anyway.
