Jan. 16th, 2018 08:09 pmCharlie'd rather ignore being sick, but she can only do that for so long. Her cold hit her early Monday morning. Like, four AM early. A metaphorical punch to her sinuses that kept her up all night sneezing and coughing. By morning, it felt like it had worked itself out of her system, so she tried classes. Socialization. Being around the scant handful of people she liked being around. But she wasn't her usual sarcastic self. She was quiet, reserved, not at all in the mood.
By Tuesday, she'd given up on socialization after class and just went right to her room, the excuse being she had homework and since Charlie was the type to actuallyhappily get her homework done? No one questioned it.
But on Wednesday, she just didn't have it in her to actually leave her room. So the first thing she did, since Wednesday was the day where most of her classes were with John, was to text him and let him know she wouldn't be heading to class and had the Okay from Jean to stay in her room and she'd see him later when she was sure she was done dying from Dorm Plague.
Now, knowing John as well as she did? She expected him to show up sooner or later, so she was quick to take a shower and get dressed before putting on watch_dogs 2 to play as she waited.
And it's a funny story about the PS4 and how she got it involving one of the adults asking what would make her stay more comfortable and her jokingly saying a PlayStation 4, but that's not what matters. What matters is she's busy doing side missions as Marcus Holloway, not really able to focus on the main story, and when she hears the familiar knock of John? She kind of sighs and smiles, calling out and telekinetically unlocking her door as she did so.
"If you catch this shit, I'm not hanging out with you while you recover." This is a lie with a capital L and both of them know it.
Now, if you don't mind? She's gonna have Marcus walk through the games setting, stealing money from unsuspecting NPCs as she sits cross legged on her bed, in her usual t-shirt and jeans combo, her hair a tangled braid down her back.
