Report 049 - [Video]

Feb 28, 2011 20:20

[Riza is annoyed. Now that last week was over, she realizes how much this week sucks.

Hence the image of the bed in her and Roy's room. Yes, she has untucked all the sheets and rolled them up onto the mattress.]

They smell of smoke and sex and I will not sleep on them until I can only smell soap and your sweat and tears.

[Have a Look. This message ( Read more... )

[He knows that look. He knows that look very well. It's been a while since he's seen it in his direction in particular, and it still strikes fear in his heart.

She said those things, quite publicly, and yet she has no idea that Faye still has the ring that was meant for their wedding day, and... Oh shit he'd had sex with Faye in their bed.

Hiding in the study is only going to make it worse in the end, and it's with very quiet steps, and an incredibly apologetic smile that he shuffles into the bedroom.]

Ah... Let me get those, hmn?

That would be wise.

[She's just going to sit over here and brush her hair.]

[Oh. No, he's in really, big trouble here.

He stares at her for a while, pulling a face and going to collect the sheets. He'll just be off in the front room actually for a moment. Drawing an array. It's all just particles right? He can clean them off.]

[Once he gets to the bedroom door, she calls out.]

No alchemy.

[That makes him stop, leaning back just a little, eyebrow arched at her.]

But..!

[She pauses in her brushing. Maybe that is a bit too cruel. They couldn't help what the Animus pulled on them, after all.

Sigh.]

Fine. But I still want to smell soap.

[He stares at the sheets in his hands, before looking back at her. It's pointless trying to get her on his side again before he's done this. Especially after she ordered it so clearly.]

Alright.

[Brush brush brush.]

[It doesn't take him long to draw the array, and then put the bedsheets in a bath full of water, leaving them to soak. He wants to try and at least... make amends as quickly as he can.

He tries to stay neutral as he wanders back into their room, taking a deep breath and moving to sit on the bed, as close as he can be to her.]

[Still ignoring you, sorry.]

[Offline] general_mustang March 1 2011, 01:59:24 UTC

[A sigh, and he looks up at the mirror, glad to be able to see you in it, Riza.

Wounded puppy dog look, get?]

[Offline] arrayed_back March 1 2011, 02:04:02 UTC

[She glances up to see that look, but turns away.<]/small>

[Offline] general_mustang March 1 2011, 02:06:43 UTC

[---Oh for the love of--

A sigh, and he rubs his face, leaving his hand over his eyes.]

It's not like I had any choice about this, Riza.

[Offline] arrayed_back March 1 2011, 02:10:57 UTC

[She stops brushing her hair again and says nothing. She could always leave, but she knows that would just delay the inevitable.

Riza stays.]

[Offline] general_mustang March 1 2011, 02:13:39 UTC

[He understands that it hurts. Of course it does. They forgot about one another, and he finds it difficult to believe that she and Spike didn't... he can barely think it.

When he speaks, he almost wishes he didn't. He can hear the desperation in his voice, the dryness of his throat, the fear.]

Riza...

[Offline] arrayed_back March 1 2011, 02:21:28 UTC

[She takes her time in answering, trying to keep the anger out of her voice, even if she knows yelling would make her feel better for a moment.]

...I know.
