261 — open video//closed action to roommates
[ The video feed comes on early, just after the morning greeting. Aidan is definitely looking worse for wear, perpetually stifling a yawn and doing what he can to drown himself in the first pot of coffee of the day. It's been a few rough nights since Euphie moved in and not for the reasons one may suspect. ~~Or maybe exactly for the reasons one may suspect~~. ]

So, uhm... [ Clearing his throat. ] Anyone got any advice for stayin' awake when coffee don't cut it no more? I've tried cold showers, but uhm... I got a feelin' I'll give m'self a cold if I keep that up.

Anythin' would be helpful. Please.

	Her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Euphie. [ The latest addition to his growing list of reasons why he can't sleep. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:08 am UTC (link)
	She does seem like the kind of person who would worry over someone else's well being. Is there more to it than that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:11 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. It's... oh man, there's no way I can say this an' make it sound right so don't... y'know. Don't jump to any conclusions. We're sharin' a bed. Have for a couple of nights now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Platonically I take it? [He still has his blue band from Helix after all.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:19 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. She lost her roommates an' I asked her to move in with me an' Sougo. Gotta stick together, you know? I was plannin' to take the couch, but she wouldn't have none of that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:22 am UTC (link)
	You live with Sougo? [No, no, that's not the lapse in judgement that's important here.] Why don't you just move into a bigger apartment? I've seen up to six rooms in some. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:24 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Moved in with him an' Lacus after Helix disappeared, and then... well, you know. [ People keep disappearing. ] Took all I had to get him to agree to lettin' Euphie move in. I don't think he'd like it if I suggested we move too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:26 am UTC (link)
	So you were sleeping in Lacus' room? [Just sorting this out.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:28 am UTC (link)
	Nope. Got my own, that I tried to give to Euphie. Lacus' room... I ain't touchin' that. Sougo'd kill me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hope he at least lights candles in there if he's going to make it a shrine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:30 am UTC (link)
	That's his business. She hasn't been gone long either. [ If he hadn't cleared out his and Helix's apartment, that would've been another shrine. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:32 am UTC (link)
	It's just a room. [But she hasn't gotten rid of any of Reid's things, has she?] Okay, so, whatever, you're sharing a bed. Does the princess snore or something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:33 am UTC (link)
	....No, but... [ Hnrgh Kitty he's two years older than you, why does he feel like such a kid. ] She's... a girl. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:37 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Hard to miss. Point? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ He draws a deep breath. Why is he explaining this? He could just. Hang up, only his mama didn't raise him that way but apparently she did raise him to discuss awkward boners. Wow. ]

And I'm a guy and she's all soft an' warm and smells nice and we kinda kissed th' other day with th' bots and it was nice and I know I shouldn't even be thinkin' 'bout any of this because Helix is still out there somewhere but I can't help it an' sleepin' in th' same bed as her night after night is going to drive me crazy.

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:43 am UTC (link)
	So... You like girls too. Okay, well... [She already tried all the simple options on him. At least the ones she thought were simple.] You probably should have filtered this whole announcement from her you know. [No, not everyone can tell these things, but hacker.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:46 am UTC (link)
	Yeah... always have. I don't know what th' hell I'm supposed to be, but.. yeah. I like girls too. [ Which only makes it more confusing, really. Helix called him gay but that's not what he is. ] An' I've barely slept in three days. Can you blame me for not figurin' out th' damn filter? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 12:56 am UTC (link)
	I'm not blaming. [But maybe if you took her class...] I'd just figure out what you're going to tell her when she sees it. Or just kiss her again, and see if that's more relaxing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 12:58 am UTC (link)
	[ If he took her class, he'd just set fire to things. He's convinced. ] I can't do that... even if I wanted to — which I don't know if I do — I got a boyfriend. I can't just go 'round kissin' other people just cause he ain't here to punch me for it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 01:04 am UTC (link)
	[She already finished her pyromaniac class with honors.] And how long are you going to have a boyfriend who isn't here? This isn't just long distance we're talking. You can't call or write. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 01:07 am UTC (link)
	So? You love someone, you don't just betray him. [ Hn. ] We got separated back home too, y'know... I haven't seen him for almost a year there, but that don't mean I ever strayed. Hell, we weren't even officially together or nothin' back there. Not like we were here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 01:08 am UTC (link)
	[She won't comment on the love and betrayal thing.] Were you ever tempted back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-03-09 01:10 am UTC (link)
	Wasn't like I was livin' alone out in th' woods or anythin'... [ That's for the future. ] But no. Never even crossed my mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-03-09 01:12 am UTC (link)
	Then maybe something's changed. Or not. [She shrugs. Not exactly how she feels about this anyway when her little starter serial killer seems to like her too.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
