RP: April and Abby Who: April and Abby Where: The base When: January 6 Summary: April asks Abby to become her room mate
She'd planned on asking Abby already at the New Years Eve party, but things hadn't turned out that way and neither had she asked since. Truth was that she was a bit nervous about asking. On the one hand she longed for a house, a kitchen, a sense of normality again, but on the other she was nervous about what would happen if Abby said no. Deciding that she would never find out unless she actually asked, however, she took a deep breath while working and deciding that just asking was the correct way to go.
"Abby," she said. "I was wondering, and I'll understand if you're not interested, but I was wondering if you'd like to share a house with me," she blurted out rather quickly. Before Abby had a chance to reply though, she went on babbling without interruption and nearly without taking the time to breathe. "Hetty said you need at least one room mate to be assigned a house, and I thought a sense of normality now that we're here could be a good thing and a house would help with that. I'm good at sharing with others, I had five room mates back home, and it worked well. We could even ask others, people who are also longing for some other place to live than a hotel. Somewhere where you can cook, be alone - somewhere that's home. Or as much home as any place can be in this dimension at least."
She took a deep breath, biting her lip. "We don't know how long we'll stay here, we might as well make the most of it, right?"
