Who: Ashleigh Spinnet and Axel King.
What: Conversations about adventures.
Where: Flat 2, 56 Limbick Alley.
When: Friday 25th November, after this conversation.
Ashleigh had been journaling in the living room, where Alicia could come in and have company if she wanted it. It had been Ashleigh's habit since her sister moved in to spend as much time in common areas as possible, so she was always approachable. Alicia rarely made use of the opportunity, and hadn't poked her head out of her room all evening, so Ashleigh didn't feel bad when she got up and retreated to her bedroom. She didn't want to flaunt her relationship. Alicia hadn't said so, but Ashleigh could only assume it would intensify her sadness, which was the last thing Ashleigh wanted. So, while she waited for Axel to appatate in, she set up a one-way silencing charm on the door. No sound from the bedroom would be heard outside, but Ashleigh could still hear if Alicia knocked, or needed anything.
Sitting at her dressing table, Ashleigh took her hair down from its bun before wiping what little makeup she'd been wearing for work away. Despite Axel's question, as she looked at her reflection in the mirror she really didn't think she looked old. 30 wasn't old. And, if anything, Axel looked much younger than she did with his tattoos and general style. She was just finishing brushing her hair when Axel popped into being behind her. She was still dressed, though from their conversation she wasn't sure how long that would last. Smiling, she stood. "Hello," she said, raising an eyebrow at him as she smoothed her hands along his forearms.
