LOOK WHAT YOU DID NOAH

Alexithymiaa: -Noah was hovering around the side of the couch awkwardly, not really knowing how to address Adam or his request about means of making money. "So uh... what're you reading there? Comics?" He asked as he shifted his weight, sliding his hands into the front pocket of his hoodie. // Adam was sitting in the corner of the couch with Lady lying next to him, a comic book lifted up to cover his face until he finally heard Noaah speaka despite the constant shuffling of his feet aaround the common area for the last five minutes. Lowering the book to his lap, he watched Noah. "Yes. It's called Deadly Class, but something tells me you're not actually interested in what I'm reading."-
Covet: Tae walked into the house, seeing Adam on the couch and Noah hovering about. "Hey guys" She said then made her way into her room to drop her school stuff off. She was curious if Noah was going to ask about the possible gaming competition stuff or puss out, but she was going to give him some space before she went out to watch the spectacle.
Alexithymiaa: "What? I didn't say that. It looks like a cool...... comic book." He forced the words out of his mouth like they were painful, a little relieved when her heard Tae come in. "Oh hey Tae. Look, Adams here. Reading a comic book." So awkward. // Adam raised his brows because Noah was very obviously acting weird aand suspicious, sticking his thumb between the pages and closing the comic. "Well it's a nice break from the LSATs study guides aand practice exams. Did you want to read it?" He offered, trying to be nice despite the fact that he doesnt like Noah.-
Covet: Tae went to her mirror and primped , reapplying her lipgloss and scrunched her hair up, before she walked back out into the the living room and towards the kitchen. "Yeah... he is.. he kind of does that sometimes."
Alexithymiaa: "Oh uh... I think I'm good... on the reading... of the comic books..." He dragged out, trying to sort of look for Tae for help. "So you work at the comic book shop, right? With all the games?" // Adam took a deep breath, knowing there was some sort of ulterior motive here and he knew Noah was getting to it. "Yes... I do."-
Covet: Tae looked back at him and smiled, getting into the cupboard to pull out a bag of popcorn because of course this bitch was going to live this up.
Alexithymiaa: "Yeah, that's cool." He paused, unable to actually look Adaam in the face right now. "So do you guys ever have like... gaming competitions? Or do you know of any being held elsewhere?" // Adam sat up a little when Lady ditched him to trot off into the kitchen after Tae because she likes Tae, looking for pets and attention. "Well... we do have table top game nights frequently." He knew that's not what Noah was aasking about, but it was more fun this way.-
Covet: Tae leaned down to give Lady the pets while she waited for her popcorn in the microwave. "Do you want some too Lady? Will you dance pretty for popcorn?" She asked the dog like the dog was going to answer her at all. Tae was also amused at the slow paced conversation between him and Adam, enjoying Adam's tactics.
Alexithymiaa: (FUCK YOU, SHES SMART.)
Alexithymiaa: -Lady gave a small little growling yelp, offering her paw toward Tae because she's willing to run through every trick she knows for treats. "Uhhh... not table top games. Video games." Noahh corrected, rocking back on his heels. // Adam nodded, trying to hide his amusement. "Oh. We don't really hold competitions at the shop, but they do have some in town sometimes. I don't know of any upcoming right now though."-
Covet: [Well yeah, but She's not going to answer her XD]
Covet: "Okay, okay. But you have to wait for the popcorn to be done." Tae said looking over at the microwave. "Just a little bit longer." She gave Lady more pets in the mean time. Tae gave a bit of a frown hearing that there wasn't any current competitions because she knew that wasn't going to help his mood about the whole money situation.
Alexithymiaa: "Are you just saying that because you dont want me to come into your shop and dominate a bunch of nerds who think they're good at video games?" He asked harshly, clearly getting upset that he didnt get what he wanted outof this conversation. // "What? No. We're not biased about who wins our game nights. Why would you think I would lie about that?"-
Covet: Tae got the bag of popcorn out of the microwave and shook it to make sure the kernals were completely popped as much as they would, then glared at Noah when he started getting all douchey, shaking her head at him.
Alexithymiaa: "Because you hate me and you're jealous?" He asked, crossing his arms over his chest with a deep frown on his face. // "I don't hate you and I don't really know why you think I'm jealous of you..." Adam said awkwardly, standing up from the couch and starting to walk over into the kitchen because he didn't want this at all.-
Covet: "I tried to tell him." Tae said softly to herself as she listened to Noah, then poured the popcorn into a bowl so that she could share it with everyone, taking a piece out to toss it to Lady for her to catch. "See Noah, the only person who thinks about what others think of you... is you."
Alexithymiaa: -Lady hopped up to catch the popcorn in her mouth, doing the crunchy thing before sitting down and waiting patiently for more. Noah turned and started toward the kitchen to follow Adam, his voice rough. "Why would you be jealous of me? Because you've been after Tae's ass for how long and you're just perma friendzoned?" He shot back. // Adam turned around, a completely pained look on his face as he stared at Noah. "Look man... I get thhat you're madly in love with her, but that doesn't mean everyone in her life is interested in violating her. I told you, she's like a little sister to me."-
Covet: "BOOM! Told you!... I'm just sad I couldn't get you to bet anything." Tae said with a grin. "This is what happens when you take the time to get to know people a little bit before just assuming the worst of them." She popped a small handful of popcorn into her mouth as she tossed a couple more pieces to Lady.
Alexithymiaa: "What? I'm not madly in love with her, you are." He said defensively, sticking his hands out to shove Adam in the chest hard. "Don't project your shit onto me." // Adam stumbled back when Noah pushed him, his head rocking back into the fridge door. The impact triggered a minor seizure, his knees buckling out from underneath him with hhis body crumpling to the kitchen floor to convulse.-
Covet: "NOAH!" Tae said as she set the popcorn bowl down and shoved him back, "What the hell is your problem!" She said then kneeled down to make sure Adam was alright, keeping anything from out of his reach. She coudln't really remember what to do after the last time she saw him have one.
Alexithymiaa: -He watched Adam go down fast aand start to seizure, shocked aand instantly a little scared. "What? What happened?" He asked, kneeling down next to him, looking around frantically. Lady pushed him out of the way, starting to cry and lying down on the floor next to Adam. // Because it was a short seizure, his motions had already started to slow, his eyes returning to a normal location in his sockets. Breathing heavily, he started to regain consciousness, closing his eyes.-
Covet: "Adam has seizures and you apparently triggured one by shoving him. Because you can't just not be a jerk." Tae said with a frown as she comforted Lady, seeing the changes in Adam happening much quicker. "He's going to need some water, and probably some tylenol or something, I think."
Alexithymiaa: "Oh shit..." He mumbled, feeling kind of bad that he'd acted like an asshole and triggered a seizure. "Okay." He pushed up from the floor and turned to grab a bottle of water from the fridge, passing it down to Tae before taking off into a jog for his bathroom to get Tylenol because he didnt know where else it would be in the house that might be closer. // Adam very slowly opened his eyes again, his hands clammy and his throat dry.-
Covet: "Here you go. Adam." Tae said as she handed him the bottle of water. "Noah's getting you some Tylenol. Just take it easy. I'm so sorry he shoved you."
Alexithymiaa: -Racing back into the room with the bottle of Tylenol on his hand, Noah skidded to a stop in the kitchen, holding the bottle out toward her. "Here. I didnt know how many you wanted." // Adam very slowly sat up, leaning his back against the cabinet and taaking the water from her to have a few sips before speaking in a raspy voice. "Thanks."-
Covet: Taking the Tylenol from him she looked at Adam, "How many do you need?" She asked him, still glaring at Noah, because these things can be avoided.
Alexithymiaa: "Hey... I'm sorry. I didn't know..." He felt like a guilty asshole, watching Adam in clear distress. // Adam held up two fingers, taking another sip of water and then taking pills from her to swallow. "I need to get to bed..."-
Covet: Tae got two Tylenol out for him and handed them over watching him swallow them then handed the bottle back to Noah. " Here you can have that back now." She said then stood up to help Adam to his feet so she could help him get downstairs.
Alexithymiaa: -He took the bottle back and set it on the counter, not caring much for putting it away in the moment. "Do you need help? I can help you." // Adam slowly climbed to his feet, careful not to trip over Lady who wasnt leaving his side. "It's fine. I'm fine." He started, taking gentle steps to exit the kitchen.-
Covet: "You've helped enough." Tae told him then made sure to walk with Adam because well stairs are a bitch and the last thing Adam needs is to take a header down them.
Alexithymiaa: -Noah just stood there in the kitchen as Tae helped Adam walk away, swearing the dog gave him a dirty fucking look.-
