Opium!

[raventonbeauty]

In a room quite near the main room yet far enough away so that the smoke is mostly contained, Ashley Raventon is passed out on a couch, completely high on opium. He's in a mood to share, so he's hotboxed the entire room. The heavy, sweet smoke is mostly contained by the closed doors, but the scent of it has wafted here and there, strains of it

*smells the smoke-- how could she not? -- and already the memories of things she'd rather not think about are beginning* *pokes her head in* Oh dear...

[raventonbeauty]

Hello. *gives her a very pretty and very stoned smile* Come on in.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

... Hello. *enters, against her better judgement* I haven't smelled this stuff since I was sixteen. I... can't say I miss it very much.

[raventonbeauty]

*laughs* But it's nice. Makes you all melty.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

It also makes me remember things I would otherwise like to forget. *takes a seat*

[raventonbeauty]

You don't have to stay. But you can.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

I'm sitting with you, aren't I? *sniffs a bit* Besides, any minute now I'm going to begin remembering. I might as well stay.

[raventonbeauty]

I could distract you, so you don't.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

I can almost guarantee that I will. But try all you like.

[raventonbeauty]

How do you feel about kisses?

*forgive his bluntness, but he is stoned out of his mind*

[untidygenius]

*and Fred's poking his head in at that, because he tends to worry when there is opium and Sally in the same place*

--I don't know how she feels about them, but I certainly wouldn't like it.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

*glances up at Fred-- she's not looking very well right now. thanks, opium :D-- and of course starts wibbling, because Bad Memories*

Kisses? Oh, the kisses.... they were lovely, but then--

[untidygenius]

*takes her hand* Come on, love. Let's get you out of here.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

*tugs on his hand to stop him* No. No, this time I won't leave you by yourself. I don't care if it all burns down...

[untidygenius]

*squeezes her hand, his eyes shadowed* Love, I'll come with you. I swear I will.

[ruby_inthesmoke]

*goes and clings to him, likely crying quite a bit by now* Alright... alright, but we've got to get out--
