[There is a small part of her that wants to scream with that, because he's ignoring the stuff from back home. So instead she's just going to press her head into her hands for a minute, because well, she's not magical but she has attempted to get people to teach her how to be.

So, instead she just groans loudly and shakes her head.]

God, this sucks. Just this whole thing sucks.

[She hasn't even had a week to enjoy not being on bedrest anymore. Or like more than a day.]

[He reached over, taking her hand and squeezing it. This situation wasn't ideal, but they'd been through weirder and worse. They'd been through so much weirder and worse, actually. This wasn't something they couldn't get past.

Together.]

We'll get through it.

[Alex just gave his hand a squeeze in return, before she tried the approach that normally worked so well for her: stupid jokes.]

Well, at least it'll make it easier for Simon to stalk me if he's just down the hall.

[Because lol this is their life right now.]

[nobasisinfact]

Another thing he needs to stop doing.

[He knows it's a joke, but Simon really does need to stop stalking Alex, or anyone else for that matter.]

You don't need to tell me, Richard. I know.

[And she just sighs softly, because well, what else is there to do in this situation but that.]

So ground rules for him then: no killing anyone, no stalking me, no coming near our bedroom, no bilocating in the house...

[He supposes he can't say much about the bilocation thing. Bilocating isn't real, but Alex isn't on enough painkillers for it to have been a trick of her imagination. The best route is that there's a hiccup in whatever system Warren has them in.]

No discussion about what's happening back home with outsiders.

[Simon seemed the type to do so without realizing how detrimental it could be for Alex. For Richard as well, but he wasn't the one with an extensive group of people he called friends or an outgoing nature to meet new strangers daily.]

[He probably considers that a rule for her as well, but she doesn't even think about it.]

If he wants a fair shake at things, maybe no discussing his history? But I don't think he'd do it anyway.

[Not to anyone but them. Probably.]

[nobasisinfact]

I think of the three of us you're the only one who would.

[In all actuality, Alex was the only one with a history that could really be discussed.]
