Welcome to Gaia! ::

Little Gifts

It didn't matter that she was currently babysitting Taym's room. Cee checked her own once a day, giving the space a bit of her time so that it always was lived in. She was well aware already how Deus was about rooms and didn't want to see anything happen to hers if she was inattentive.

She texted Ever a selfie with the bottle of shampoo stuffed between her ample breasts. Cee had ducklips, and large false lashes.



Another picture followed where she looked like she was fellating the bottle.

Talkin bout guys and stuff

She did enjoy it, genuinely. Cee could talk for days but it was nice laughing without faking it and finding a moment of mental solace from analyzing who and what were threats to her role here and her future.

"-naw naw.. haha." She flapped her hands in dismissal while laughing. "This is tha other Jon.. not the belly ring John." Ever got to join into her past exploits like one of the gang, though the names sometimes were confusing (like the boyfriend who had been named Romeo but got called Biff for some reason, or the 3 girls named Maria who all slept with the same captain of the soccer team). She wasn't eloquent but Cee was willing to tell a story with her enthusiasm and erraticly consistent hand motions.

"So I'm here!" She rolled on her back, lifted her legs in the air and spread them wide with no thought to shame or personal space. She held her hands over her crotch like she was holding someone's head. "An'he's going ta town cause, damn the man had some skills, and in walks this ******** shocked a** lookin nerd girl. Just strolls on in tha office like nothin."

She waited for Ever's expectant expression, just a heartbeat's worth of pause for drama.

She grinned, "I like gripped'im up so he coldn't turn his head and.. haha.. all cool like I'm like," she set on a serious face but panted, a rather scandalous breathless expression, "'Are you here for tutoring too?' HAHAHAHA! I couldn't tell if she was into it or about ta pee'erself!"

He was in the Life labs when he answered, and he regretted that he had. The sound was enough to carry from his phone to the room surrounding, to make minipets shift in their cages -- and the tech he was on duty with lift his own head, fixing Ever with a steady stare as the crescendo built and then died out.

"...uh." He licked his lips and shrugged, slowly. "It's not what it sounds like."

The tech's eyebrows rose, in reply.

"I'm gay."

Was that supposed to help? The man stared at him, blankly.

"Like, really gay."

His phone blipped, and Ever winced at the picture.

"She's just ******** with me."

The hunter didn't care. He stared for another moment before going back to his work.

Talkin bout guys and stuff

Cee never had any love for any of the food they were served. She would often verbally complain about how she wouldn't eat the pasta because she'd been too used to home made, or how it was worse than the chinese buffets in the city. She usually yelled at the people behind the cafeteria counter like they didn't speak english or they were the help. Thankfully she had enough awareness of their own feelings to only eat things they couldn't possibly spit in... though with this island it was likely someone spit in everything.

"I never felt it." Cee glanced over her overcooked chicken breast, pairing it with lightly dressed greens they called salad. She spoke through chewing, not caring if it was rude or not. "I think driftin alone is jus'fine and the only feelins that drawn me ta people ever dint come from my heart." She agreed with a laugh.

Her large brown eyes dropped to her plate again under the thick false black lashes. She placed another bite and chewed.

"I think it's all a buncha bullshit." She fork pointed between the both of them. "You only got you. When its time ta meet tha maker, aint gonna be no one but me there lookin'im in tha eye."

She swallowed and snorted though, "Plus errybody who," she finger quoted, "'got somebody' spends a s**t load'a time tryin to dictate erryone else's happiness."

She head bobbled. "********. That."

Do your manly duty

When he appeared at her door it was definitely manly: half-dressed, wide-eyed, with his weapon in hand and his shoulders tense. Ready to attack any would-be assailant, or monsters come creeping out of her woodwork.

Do your manly duty

For a moment, Ever just stared at the spider, struggling to come into focus. Then, slowly, he lowered his blade and moved over. He shook the spider onto the floor. He stomped it out.

And without saying a word to her, he slipped out to finish whatever he had been doing.

Familia

"Bingo." She snatched his cigarette, took a drag, and handed it back with only the barest ring of lipstick on the filter. Cee was only a social smoker and most of it took place while drinking. "Mama and papa probly woulda had more but she had some kinna uterus probs. I dunno."

"They all look like you?" One of her fingers reached out to fiddle with his fair hair. "All glowy halos an's**t?"
