Aradia: Be Alive

[aliveadventures]

Of course you're being alive! You've always been alive! What kind of silly command is that?

Aradia: Go on an adventure.

Oops, you've already beaten the command to doing that. You're always adventuring. Actually, at the moment it's more like you're just running around and ducking behind things and just generally making a fool out of yourself. But you'

You have the sudden feeling that you're going to immediately regret turning this corner without checking it out first. Of course you're usually in the throes of some paranoid freakout or another, so you just shrug it off as your usual idiocy and turn the damn corner. The sounds are probably a figment of your imagination anyway.

Oh look, it's Sollux! And of course there's only one acceptable course of action to take upon seeing Sollux pass by in the middle of one of your adventures.

> Aradia: Nearly tackle and drag Sollux behind the whatever with you.

On it. It is your duty as an adventurer and a friend to jump out and pull Sollux behind your hiding place with you to protect him from the Troll Nazis! Good adventurer, best friend.

You freeze up for multiple reasons: first of all you hate hate hate being touched in any way, especially when you aren't prepared for it.

Needless to say you're less than thrilled with this sudden situation.

2top touchiing me.

Oh, dear. The Sollux you know may not be as gung-ho about your adventures as, well, you are, but he usually isn't this abrasive! But you do immediately let go of him and back off. He doesn't seem very happy at all.

0h um

You wrap your arms around yourself protectively, as if that's going to help anything. This obviously isn't the Aradia you know, but it's still really hard to cast off lifetime biases at the drop of a hat. Especially when you're as much as a prick as you are.

Ju2t peachy. What the hell are you even doiing back here? There'2 nothiing around but me.
