Day 207 Action | Closed Audio
[Rogue is sitting in the cafe with a cup of coffee and a half finished pastry that she keeps picking at. She's in her normal attire, looking a little exhausted. Her eyes are a little puffy, a little red. She's got her head resting in one hand, tipped down so that her hair covers her face for the most part.

The last couple of days have been hard for her. She hurt so many people with the kissing bots and while none of them required medical attention, just rest, she's self punishing, beating herself up about it despite knowing she couldn't have done anything. Next time the bots came around, she resolved she'd just stay locked in her apartment and not answer the door. Sam would have to get another cook for the day.]

|Sookie|

You feelin' normal enough now? I'm doin' pretty good. Only catchin' stray bits of thoughts and the like from people really close to me.

|Sam|

You feelin' okay? I'm so sorry 'bout...what happened and I promise your secret's safe with me.

|Rebekah|

Still feelin' all right, ain't you? The cut on my arm's closin' up and doin' real good.

|Peter|

You feelin' okay now? Any side effects?

	Fine. I recovered rather quickly, thanks to your donation. [And drinking more blood later.] (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm sorta used to it. It's just hard on days like the other day. [Not entirely true, but she chose this when she opted not to have the cure so she doesn't want pity for it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rogue easily 2013-02-23 02:42 am UTC (link)
	[It wasn't pity, not exactly. Understanding perhaps. Rebekah knows about being something you'd rather not be.] Yes. Well hopefully there won't be another day like that for a long time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ ~~because if I'm not mistaken, Komui is helping Rogue with her situation~~ Bak was just passing through at first, picking up his weekly package of tea from the cafe when he noticed Rogue and her rather lackluster disposition. Even despite that, he had meant to just walk away (truly, it was no concern of his), but...

No, he couldn't do it. Huffing, he stood over her, arms akimbo and frowning ] If you're not going to eat that, do it a favor and throw it away. You might be better off resting as it is.

	[Rogue is worried about Peter for obvious reasons. With his borrowed strength, she managed to get him to her apartment and trundled off into bed. Right now, she's in the kitchen trying to backe off some of the restless energy she's accumulated and listening for any sound that Peter is conscious.] (Reply to this) (Thread)

[Kissed to death. He was this close to being kissed to death.

Not the worst way to go, or is it?

He wants to groan when he regains consciousness but even it seems a little too hard to manage, so he instead just stares up at the ceiling for a time. He has to, to gather his wits and uncloud his mind. He's still not quite sure what happened, the room's unfamiliar-- an odd, smokey scent he can't place immediately.

And then he starts to remember what happened last.] ... Rogue?

[ maybe he doesn't think so, but she rather likes him alive.

the apartment is quiet for the most part and she's left the door of the guest room cracked open so she could hear him. When he calls out her name, she stops what she's doing (putting cookies on a cookie sheet to put in the oven), grabs a dish towel and starts into the guest room. Her hands are bare, but her gloves are tucked into her pocket so she can get to them quickly. She approaches Peter carefully, not sure how he's going to react to her. ]

First of all, I am so sorry. I never wanted to hurt you.

	I... I know. [He nods his head, sitting up and pinching the bridge of his nose. He's felt better after getting whacked around by Flash Thompson, without the super powers. But it could be worse. He repeats to himself in a mental mantra.] Don't blame you, blame those bots and... ... Is this Logan's room? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ikindalikeit 2013-03-06 02:33 am UTC (link)
	[She puts the dish towel aside and pulls on her gloves, nodding.] I didn't know where else to put you. Didn't seem like a real good idea puttin' you in my room. She hesitantly takes a step toward him, not quite believing that he doesn't blame her.]</small> I--do you--I made cookies. [pause] And a pie. [pause] And some fried chicken. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	webcrawler 2013-03-17 05:35 pm UTC (link)
	[He's getting all kinds of chills from being in this room. Maybe it's just the lingering smell of smoke that makes it seem like Logan's just going to bust through the door and heave him out a window. He does weakly smile.] You've been busy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ikindalikeit 2013-03-19 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	[Rogue shrugs a little.] Weren't like I could do anythin' else. [She steps closer to the bed, but clearly uncertain about getting close to him. She's not afraid of him, but she is afraid that he's scared of her now and doesn't want her close.] How you feelin'? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	webcrawler 2013-03-21 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	[He might not be all for kissing again for a few... days, but he doesn't want to give off the impression he doesn't still like her. Because he does. A lot. So he reaches out for her gloved hand, c'mere with that.] Better. Still kind of-- [he shakes his head] but it's okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ikindalikeit 2013-03-22 12:24 am UTC (link)
	[She looks surprised when he held out his hand for hers then she smiles, reaching her hand out for his. Her fingers curl around his and she moves to sit on the edge of the bed with him.] Can I get you somethin' to make you feel better? (Reply to this) (Parent)
