WR was pissed. Well, that... wasn't really anything new, but today it was more so than usual. It was much easier to conceal it nowadays considering they had their own room, but since they also lived with Stevie and Leon, their antics wouldn't go unnoticed for long. The one time they left their room today was for breakfast, and since then, they'd been holed up in their room with their stereo up to almost max volume looping the same song for the past few hours, which was likely close to driving Stevie to insanity if she was home. For now, it was just WR, their anger, their music, and their sketchbook. Stevie-Rae Sudeki |

Stevie had a sneaking suspicion that WR was going through some shit. She just smirked as the song started again. If WR wanted to talk, they knew Stevie was home and she was more than willing to help. Currently, she could be found in the meditation room doing Yoga, occasionally mouthing the lyrics she knew by heart now. The oven still had 45 minutes on the turkey she was making.

After a few more minutes, Stevie would hear a very angry sounding "FUCK!!", followed by some light background ruckus. The music would abruptly stop, and WR would soon emerge from their room, hunched over like a hermit with ink all over their face.
They would angrily head into the kitchen and dig around the refrigerator for a soda, cursing under their breath.

Stevie was in Downward dog and had to force a giggle to be contained. After she was sure she wouldn't laugh out loud she called.
"WR? Is everything ok, dear? If you're stressed, some yoga might be good."
It helps me a lot. She thought

After plucking a Coke from one of the refrigerator doors, they would slam it shut and promptly enter the meditation room, staring at Stevie with livid eyes.
"Look at me," They'd demand, leaning over so she could see the ink all over their skin and clothes. That wasn't what was bothering them, well, not alone.

Stevie couldn't help but let out a hearty chuckle.
"I'm sorry, WR. What happened? Did your pen explode?"
She fell out of her stance and sat down heavily, still trying to old in her laughter.
"Is the ink all that's wrong?"

WR would stare at her for a moment, narrowing their eyes sharp as daggers, just barely containing their curses as they clenched their fists...
And after all that, they'd just sigh, plopping down on the floor as the ink dripped off of them.
"I got rejected."

Stevie gained control at that. All the silliness draining from the conversation.
"What? By who? From what?"
She sat forward and grabbed her towel off the chair and wiped some ink off WR's face.

WR would close their eyes as Stevie wiped their face, almost falling on their back.
"I suck at romance," They'd mumble, clearly irritated and uncomfortable.

Stevie smirked a little, concern still playing on her face.
"Sorry I laughed. Everyone sucks at something, honey, but I'm sure it's not that bad. Do you wanna tell me about it?"

WR would exhale a long, dramatic groan, falling on their back to stare at the ceiling.
"Yeah, I'll tell you about it, but can you tell me about you and Leon first? When you started dating? I'm really trying to figure this whole romance thing out. Never really thought about it before."
They'd shrug. It took them a long time to get comfortable with their sexuality.

Stevie giggled and scooted forward to gently wipe off more ink from WR. "Well, as you know, Leon is the leader of the Raijen Clan. Before that was even a thing, he was the leader of a gang he named The Lightning Gang." She paused to move the towel to a less saturated are before resuming the gentle wiping of WR's face. "We met when his group tried to take over my gas station. Well, it wasn't my gas station. I was just working there. He and his goons came in, after they had had trouble in the neighborhood before, from a mysterious young woman-- who will not be named-- [[grin]] Well, I took out all three goons in a matter of minutes. But there was a tall man with blond hair smiling at e, as if he knew I was already there. Well, I didn't last too long with him. But I did get a few good licks in. Even knocked him over once. I woke up later in his hospital, now my hospital, and he asked me to join the Lightning Gang. A few months later we were on a mission, another gang was giving us trouble, and it was just Leon and myself. I told him how I felt about him and he told me how he felt too. When we came home we were a couple. I guess we both had been feeling the same thing for some time but neither of us acted on it. Sometimes he would knock over a gas station and bring me back a soda or an icee. [[fond smile]] After about two years, he took me to my favorite spot to star gaze. Leon told me there was a new cluster he found and he was just DYING to show me. He told me to wait and maybe pour us some sweet red and wait for him to find it again. When I looked through the telescope, there was a ring on the end. He gave me my own star cluster." She lifted a hand to show WR the ring she never took off. |

WR would sit up after Stevie was done wiping their face, listening to her story and nodding along with the occasional facial expression. Honestly, their relationship alone could have made a bestselling novel, so it was no wonder Stevie took so much pride in her romance. WR... couldn't relate, needless to say. They had had one or two romantic interests in high school, but they never evolved much from there, nor did they ever take the time to explore after they graduated, much less recently. It wasn't so much that they didn't care about it, but more so they thought they'd be better off without it. There were sometimes, though, where they really wanted that spark, and now was one of those times.
After Stevie showed off her ring, WR would smile at her and lay back down, groaning again.
"Must be nice to have those fairytale moments," They would mutter under their breath.

Stevie barked a laugh.
"My life hasn't been all happiness and kicking ass. Before I met and got with Leon I had my fair share of horrible relationships."

"Oh I'm sure, but you ended with one that stuck." They would shrug before wiping their face. Even though most of the ink was off of their skin now, their nostrils fucking burned. They would sniffle a few times.
"I guess it doesn't matter. I'll figure it out eventually."
