Suite 138: Ed is sick!

Steph's curled up on the couch, wearing pyjama pants, socks and a t-shirt that definitely doesn't belong to her, and watching Star Wars again.

No, she's not missing Billy at all. It's just ...

She's just ...

It's boring without him here, okay!

Except Ed doesn't really want apologies. He wants things to work out somehow.

There can be a difference.

"I just don't get why you guys can't even try to get along."

"We tried!"

Steph feels like she did her part by even asking him for help in the first place. He rejected it. Not her fault!

... okay, probably her fault.

"He just ... gets on my nerves."

"Why? Any specific reasons?"

"Apart from the bit where he's thirty and he shoots fire at me?"

She shrugs.

"We just ... don't get along."

"A young thirty," Ed says automatically, and shakes his head. "There's gotta be more reasons than that."

He might get pissed at a lot of people, but at least he can always say why!

"I tried to tell him the if-he-hurts-you speech, and he blew up in my face. We've only talked, like, twice. I just don't like him, all right?"

Sometimes you just don't like people!

Ed facepalms.

"You can't judge anybody by talking twice. Especially not by that."

Steph wrinkles her nose and folds her arms. "You can tell if you don't want to talk to them again," she informs him. "And I don't."

"Then don't," Ed says, a bit snappily. "That's all there is to it."
alwaysroomforhope: (cranky)

[personal profile] alwaysroomforhope 2006-05-17 08:48 am (UTC)(link)
"I try not to!" She pouts. "I was asking him for help for your sake! That was the only reason I even spoke to him!"

"Fine."

Suddenly, Ed is very tired of arguing about this.

"... well, good then."


WHY DOES IT FEEL LIKE THINGS ARE NOT GOOD?

"What's happening now?" He asks, pointing at the screen. Because a topic change seems more preferable than anything else, right now.

"The old guy's about to die," Steph says. "And I don't know what happens next. We missed that bit."

Topic change, yes plz.

"Man, I don't even know who the old guy is."

That's helpful!
