Alexithymiaa: -Adam hovered over one of the game tables, a rag in his hand as he sprayed the table down and leaned forward to wipe it clean, the players having deserted it earlier in the night. He kept his head down, paying attention to only what he was doing and no one around him.-
Tsaaq: Bliss leaned against the arm of the couch, staring at her cellphone screen while facetiming with Hayley which she knew was innappropriate so she kept her voice down to a whisper. "Just make sure you RSVP online, it makes it simpler at the door tomorrow." Bliss said, she glanced back at Adam then down at her phone once more. "Alright, I must depart. This is incredibly unprofessional. So I'll text you later. Bye!" She said hurriedly then hung up the call and turned to look at Adam once more with her eyebrows furrowed.
Alexithymiaa: -He just stared down at the table, lost in his own thought as he continuously scrubbed the same spot on the table.-
Covet: -Eli walked into the shop showing up rather late because he'd been everywhere trying to hunt down his phone. He had a frown on his face and walked around the shop as if he was expecting it to just appear in front of him. Sighing and running a hand through his hair letting out an audible groan-
Tsaaq: She sat up in her seat as she glanced between Eli and Adam. "Is everything alright?" Bliss asked, darting her eyes a few times, sort of asking both of them the question.
Alexithymiaa: -He only half caught the question that was tossed out to him, lifting his head to stare blankly at Bliss as he tried to register her words. "Huh?"-
Covet: No, I lost my phone somewhere, and I haven't been able to hunt it down. I can't for the life of me remember where I would have left it. -he said wandering over to the couches flopping down into them- Have you guys seen it lying around anywhere?
Tsaaq: "Well, I haven't seen it but I can help you look for it." Bliss said as she got up from the arm chair. "I asked if everything was alright?" She asked a little louder and spoke slower since to her that means the words are clearer, which is a thing I do all the time.  She went to lift up a few comics, looking for the phone.
Alexithymiaa: "Oh.... I texted you earlier and got this weird message back that didn't sound like you at all. I think someone might have it." He stood up straight with the rag in his hand, his arms just kind of hanging on either side of him. "Um. Yeah. Everythings great."-
Covet: Thank you My Dear-Eli said getting up to lift up the cushions of the couches then put them back down, He looked over at Adam when he mentioned something about seeing it- Really?  Well that sucks. Why would they want it, it's not like it's new or anything. -he grumbled and leaned forward putting his head in his hands- I've never lost or had my phone stolen before....I feel kind of naked without it.
Alexithymiaa: ( https://media.giphy.com/media/SSobBTDb2IUPC/giphy.gif )
Tsaaq: ((Heeeey ;D))
Alexithymiaa: (I immediately knew what I was looking for)
Covet: [ROFLMAO..]
Tsaaq: She stared at Adam a moment then shrugged her shoulders. "Okay." She said in a high pitch, instantly accepting it and turning to Eli. "Have you called the authorit-" Bliss stopped herself midsentence and squinted her eyes. "Did you try the school lost and found?" She asked him with a tilt of her head.
Alexithymiaa: -He gave a small shrug and abandoned the table, walking over to the counter to toss the rag and cleaning spray behind the shelf, standing in front of the computer to just click his way through a few of the pages they'd pulled up to research some shit I guess.-
Covet: No, I checked with campus security lost and found, but they didn't have anything. I checked at a couple other places and nothing. So whoever has it, must still have it. I'll have to get a hold of the cell company and have them shut it off. -He looked over at Adam- What did you message me about? -he asked him curious about the response was as well-
Tsaaq: "Shucks." Bliss hissed as she went to sit down beside Eli. "Do you think you'll be able get a replacement phone before tomorrow?" She asked with a concerned look. She turned her gaze to Adam as well, just to hear the reply.
Alexithymiaa: -He moved his eyes from the computer over to Eli and Bliss, just kind of half heartedly shrugging. "Just asked you if you'd talked to Harper at all."-
Covet: I mean, maybe I'll have to stop by and talk to them in the morning. I'll have them shut the old one off and get set up with something new. I don't really have another choice. -he said with a reluctant shrug, then shook his head answering Adam's question- Ah, No man, sorry I haven't. Is everything alright with her?
Tsaaq: She sighed, going to give him a sympathetic pat. "I'm sorry, dear." Bliss said softly before listening to Adam's answer. She pursed her lips and hoisted herself from the couch. "I have to go check, the uh-" Bliss didn't bother making up a lie and went over to the counter cause she was not gonna listen to more HarperxAdam shit.
Alexithymiaa: "Nope." He said very abruptly, not even hesitating for a second and not elaborating any further. He dropped his eyes back down to the computer, clicking around to keep himself occupied.-
Covet: It's okay, I should have paid more attention to where I had it. Thank You. Oh...uh...alright...-he said as Bliss got up and walked away once Harper was mentioned. Then he caught the short answer from Adam- Okay, am I missing something here? You two seem back to your weird cold shoulder thing, and I don't like it. What's wrong with Harper and why does it seem to be  effecting both of you?
Tsaaq: "There's nothing wrong dear. I'm checking uh, the thing!" Bliss waved her hand in the general direction of the counter. "Cold shoulder?" She muttered before frowning, fully aware she wasn't really hiding that shit.
Alexithymiaa: "Harper has a big mouth that she uses way too openly. Honestly, I have no idea why it would be effecting Bliss. She wasn't even there." He dared a glance over at her before moving away from the computer, walking to the closet to grab the broom.-
Tsaaq: ((Al, what are you doing? Why are you bringing me into this?))
Covet: Woah....I mean, I've witnessed it first hand, but I didn't think it'd be something you'd be upset with. -he said furrowing his brow now thoroughly confused- I don't know...That's a good question. Bliss, My Dear, care to share some input here. -he said with a soft smile and a slight sigh-
Tsaaq: Her eyes widened as she crossed her arms over her chest, nodding her head a little in agreement with what Adam said then being caught off gaurd when her opinion was called upon. "I am not opening that can of worms." Bliss said, miming zipping her lips and turning away a bit, pretending to be busy.
Alexithymiaa: "Yeah well... whatever..." He trailed off, settling into his own thoughts and what Harper had said last night before glancing at Bliss. "What can of worms?"-
Covet: -Eli frowned, not liking moody Adam or silent Bliss- We're all adults here, your oppinion matters as much as the next person, My Dear. We can discuss it like adults, I don't like the tension in here, it makes work awkward. This is a place where awkward isn't allowed.
Tsaaq: "I don't think it makes work awkward, honestly. I think we get along just fine." Bliss said with a curt nod then crossed her arms over her chest once more. "Besides, I would really prefer not to say anything lest a whole row starts over my words. I just know who to avoid and who not to avoid. I'm not purposefully trying to shut people out. I just know who to keep at an arms length." She explained.
Alexithymiaa: (REALLY ELI? THIS IS A PLACE WHERE AWKWARD ISNT ALLOWED? AWKWARD PEOPLE LIVE HERE.)
Covet: [AWKWARD IS ACCEPTED HERE....BUT YOU HAVE TO BE COMFORTABLE WITH YOUR AWKWARDNESS AND THE AWKWARDNESS OF OTHERS. XD]
Alexithymiaa: -Adam blinked as he just kind of stared at Bliss. "Are you saying you're avoiding me?"-
Covet: -Eli closed his eyes and sighed- But to fix things people have to communicate. I don't think anyone wants to start fighting over this, but I don't want people being avoided or given a cold shoulder here at work.  Because that translates to the customers. This isn't the first time there's been anonymity between the two of you recently.
Tsaaq: She pursed her lips a moment, shrugging her shoulders at Adam. Bliss furrowed her eyebrows. "Okay but I'm as professional as a twenty year old young adult can possibly be. I know my limits, what is so wrong with knowing where to harvest my fruits? I'm not being mean, at least I don't think I am. I am entitled to my opinions." She said, sounding a bit flustered. "And there wouldn't be any fights started. If you really want to know why, ask me outside of work. Because here is a horrible juncture go into my reasoning which is why I said I won't talk about it."
Alexithymiaa: -He pushed his fingers into his temples, squeezing his eyes closed. "This is ridiculous..." In a huff, he pushed the closet closed, not bothering to really get the broom out or anything and walking into the back room to grab his coat. He came back out onto the floor, slipping his arms into it and bypassing the computer to even clock out.-
Covet: -Eli held up his hands and gave an exhausted sigh, picking his battle tonight, because he'd exhausted his body earlier searching for his phone to exhaust his mind further- I'm sorry, My Dear, I'll drop it. I didn't mean to get you worked up about it, I just don't want whatever is apparenlty happening outside of work, effecting work. I guess from now on we'll all just leave our problems at the door. Sound like a.....deal..?.-he said groaning a bit- Have a good night Adam, get home safe. -he said walking over to the computer to clock him out-
Tsaaq: She rolled her eyes and scoffed a little. "What is he even mad about? Entilted straight cisgender ugh!" Bliss muttered to herself once Adam had stormed away. She went to get things ready for closing with another roll of her eyes. "I am not worked up. I am doing just dandy." Bliss said irritably, begrudgingly counting her cash drawer.
Alexithymiaa: (Hes mad his girlfriend said Thad was going to ass rape him. Im laughing about it, but hes madddddddd bro)
Alexithymiaa: -He completely ignored any and all of their words on his way out, just pushing forward out the doors to walk down to his truck, heading home and probably not talking to anyone at all for the night.-
Tsaaq: ((I know what he's mad about but Bliss doesn't know that lmao. She just thinks he's being  baby like usual.))
Covet: Oi Vey -he said softly to himself making his way over to the cupboard with the broom getting it out to get the floor swept- Great now I'm turning into my grandmother. -He looked at Bliss, giving her a reluctant answer- If you say so My Dear. -He walked over to get the computers shut down and sweep up the dust piles he made-
Alexithymiaa: (Well he kind of always is so its not a bad assumption)
Covet: [XD]
Tsaaq: Bliss made her way to her tidy up the racks then gathered her things. "You should just support me, okay? You should just support everything I say because in this juncture in my life? I'm allowed to be wrong!" She just blurted out loudly, tossing her belongings onto the couch.
Tsaaq: ((Steph if you don't know the reference I'm gonna kill you.))
Alexithymiaa: (HAHAHAHAHAHA)
Alexithymiaa: (Wait, is she pregnant?)
Tsaaq: ((Omg bitch.))
Alexithymiaa: (Well I mean.... you made the reference)
Covet: -Eli put the broom away and went to grab his stuff, then was caught off guard when Bliss tossed her stuff down and had her outburst-  I- I do support you. Why do you think I don't support you? -he said confused as to where this was coming from-
Tsaaq: "Because, it just feels like you're always siding with him. And trying to protect him instead of trying to guide him to a place where he wouldn't be so defeated about everything that ever happens to him. It feels like every time I have an opinion about something I'm the villian. And I'm not the villian, okay? I'm not." Bliss said loudly. "I'm sorry, I must just sound like a crazy person. There goes crazy Bliss with her obessive compulsions and her need to control everything. Well I apologize. If that's how I'm coming off."
Alexithymiaa: (Now you're just Katherine Heigl.)
Tsaaq: ((Nuh uh. Am I?))
Tsaaq: ((But she honestly thinks that, it fits the context of Bliss' characterization right now.))
Alexithymiaa: (I meant in my mind. I cant stop picturing it.)
Tsaaq: ((Biiiitch.))
Covet: I don't think that you are crazy  or a villain at all, apparently this is something that's been on your mind for a while. I think you are overwhelmed and I'm a little sad that you didn't bring this up to me sooner so that I could help eliviate some of these thoughts. -He frowned and started to head for the door, feeling like a beat puppy, because everything was broken and lost right now and he didn't have the energy for it-  I'm sorry that I kind of relate to the kid, I see a bit of a younger me in him at times. But it was never something that I wanted to make you feel bad, or unsupported over.
Tsaaq: Bliss sighed, trying to pull on her coat and buttoning it up. She forced herself to breathe in and out deeply to calm herself. "No, because I'm not allowed to have problems. Everyone comes to me expecting me to have the answers and it's never the other way around. I have to be strong for everyone, all of my issues become moot." She said, flailing her arms a bit as she straightened her coat. "And everyone thinks I'm so well put together because that's costume I wear. That's how it's been for the longest. It's not changing any time soon." Bliss said, chewing on the inside of her lower lip to subdue any tears.
Covet: -Eli looked back at her and walked over to her to wrap his arms around her in a big, tight hug, resting his head against hers standing there with her for a long moment, just breathing deeply before he spoke- The only costumes I want you wearing around me, are cosplay ones. Tell me your concerns, and your problems and I'll do my best to give you all the support  in the world, and help you anyway I can. If it's just to listen, be a shoulder to cry on or physically help.  -he said to her pulling away to cup her face closely, giving her a caring kiss on the forehead before pulling back to look at her-
Tsaaq: "I want to. I've never gotten to ever do that with anyone. At least not sucessfully." She leaned against him as a few tears forced their way from her eyes. "I'm sorry I yelled at you." Bliss said all sniffly, already repulsed by the mucus forming in her nostrils. She tried to calm herslf and placed a kiss on his cheek even though her face was probably wet. "I'm sorry, I just want to sleep. Please come to talon with me?" Bliss asked him, holding her gaze on his face.
Covet: Please do. I don't like seeing you like this. You were right to get frustrated with me, and I have no hardship over you yelling at me, My Dear. Sometimes I need a bit of a wake up call -he leaned into her kiss then looked at her to wipe away the moisture on her cheeks as he looked back at her- I will happily join you at Talon, for sleep. Provided you don't mind me holding you extra close, but still comfortable, tonight. -He told her keeping his arm around her shoulders as he walked towards the door to shut the lights off and close the door behind them. He escorted her to her vehicle and gave her another kiss- Drive safe, I'll be right behind you.
Tsaaq: She lifted her head a bit as he wiped her face, starting to smile a little at him. She gave him a nod of her head. "I think it's just what I need anyways." Bliss said as she walked with him over to her car, giving him a hug after their kiss then going into her vehicle. "You drive safe too." Bliss told him, getting in her car and driving off to Talon.
Tsaaq: ((Wooo beddd.))
