Don't Play That Song [Open]

Sofia had gone to one of the Sensorium rooms to try out several ideas for prom. She still needed to call everyone together to organize the event, but she wanted to try things out by herself just so she'd have an idea ( Read more... )

"...I'm not sure 'hurricane' works as a party theme, beautiful."

Oh, look. You have a visitor.

Sofia just might have flinched at that nickname but she didn't turn her head to see Julian. Her eyes were still on the floor.

"Laurie's gone."

"...oh."

Yeah, that's...

"I'm sorry."

"Thank you."

Sofia nudged some of the debris with her foot. Oh, if her father could see her now. Then again he never cared about her, not unless it directly affected him. She had no idea if he was even in the pods. She had mixed feelings about that thought.

"Stacy, please reset all of this." There was a ripple as everything moved back into place. "If only everything was so easy to fix."

He let out a quiet breath, and stepped in closer to her. He placed a hand on her back as he stood next to her.

"Hey..."

He... didn't really know what to say beyond that much right now. He wasn't very good at this whole 'being sensitive' thing, but it was easy to see that she was hurting.

She really didn't know what to make of that.

Sure, officially they had ended it more along the lines of "let's be friends" but they hadn't really talked since then. And Sofia didn't want pity sex. Or casual sex- that was the whole point.

But then she'd never understood Julian. Why should now be any different?

"At least she's safe." Relatively.

Actually the people in the pod cavern had a much worse record when it came to staying safe. But she didn't want to think about that. She'd all ready lost Laurie once and that nearly destroyed her.

He actually wasn't trying for pity sex. And lord only knows how he'd respond if she offered him any kind of sex. Odds are good he'd say 'yes', though.

"Yeah..." He rubbed her back lightly for a moment, before finally removing his hand.

"So what themes have you liked so far?"

It was tempting.

Sofia shook her head. "I don't know. I can't think of something everyone will enjoy." She paused. "But I think I've decided against balloons."

They were really loud when they popped. And far too tempting for her to break when angry.

"Then what about something no one will enjoy?"

...

"Okay, that came out wrong," he admitted. This whole talking to hot girls while not flirting wasn't easy. Unless he was talking to Cess, but he never really thought of Cess as hot. Not that she wasn't attractive, but she was his practically his little sister, his brain just wasn't allowed to go there.

"What I mean is... why not pick a theme, like... a planet or something that none us on board have ever been to? Let everyone see something new."

"That's..." Huh. "That might work. But how would I pick out one planet out of all the universes here?" She brushed back her hair. "Not that it's a bad idea. I think it's good." Ugh, why did this still have to be so awkward.

lil_hellion January 11 2011, 06:01:06 UTC
Uh... yeah. That would be a problem.

"Close your eyes and throw a dart a map of the universe?" He shrugged a bit.

Thinking about it for a second more, he considered another option. "Or you could go down to the city. About 90% of the buildings there are from who knows where. Pick out a few you like and see what Stacy has on the worlds that they came from."

"I like that idea. I always enjoy flying over the city. Do you ever do that?"

"Sometimes," he admitted, "when I need to stretch out my powers."

Well, at least now they seemed to have settled on an actual, not awkward for now topic. "What do you think? It's beautiful, isn't it?"

lil_hellion January 11 2011, 07:24:26 UTC
"It's huge, is what it is." He shook his head a bit. He had a feeling he could fly for hours and still not make it to the end of the City.

"Kinda mind boggling, the few times I actually stop to think about it."

"Too focused on practicing your powers?" She smiled faintly. "You should take a break and just enjoy it every now and then. You can fly. You can move objects without touching them. It's something most people never get to experience." And it was something you wished you'd enjoyed every second of the moment it was gone.
