[Drinking alone has started to pass from just "depressing" into "unhealthy", so Descole's enforced a ban on herself and the mini-fridge has obliged by removing all of the alcohol. Of course, after making the decision she promptly changed her mind, and now she doesn't have anything to drink despite wanting one.

So she's trying to take her mind off things by cleaning, instead, and she's found a room with just enough minuscule bits of dirt to occupy her. It's kind of pointless, given that the place cleans itself perfectly well without any input, but it's something that she can do without dropping her guard too much, and that makes it top of a very small list of things that can pass as leisure activities for her at this point. Anyone passing by is welcome to interrupt her - talking is probably a healthier pastime than trying to scrub holes in the floor, anyway.]

We can be lonely and dysfunctional together, double.

I like that idea. I think that sounds perfect. God, we're brilliant.

[She grins a bit.]

Of course we're brilliant, we're each other.

Each other in different genders. You certainly can't get more brilliant than that.

Well, true. Another female me and I wouldn't be able to lean all over her like I do with you, she'd expect to be able to do the same in return.

Yeah I have a feeling I'd have sex with a male me. Just saying...

Anyway, yeah we probably wouldn't get along.

Before, I wouldn't have said no to either. ...god, how narcissistic are we?

We're pretty narcissistic. It would make for a funny story one day.

[Laughing a little, she sips at her water again, moving slowly over to where she'd left the bread and picking it up. She nibbles a bit off the end, glancing back at Descole.]

[Descole laughs.]

I like how you look at me while eating as if too say "look I ate, are you proud of me?"

[Descole flushes a bit.]

Well, it... it's not something I do consciously, it's automatic.

No, I know. It's not a bad thing. It's actually rather just like me.

[He licks his lips and shrugs at the site.]

I am proud of you though. You're certainly stronger than I am.

Well, at least you manage to eat things that are healthy, double. Meat and bread... not so much, you know?

Okay, so it may be healthy, but can you imagine only eating fruit? That's so light it doesn't fill anyone up!

Oh, I don't know. I think I could fill myself up on fruit... but, then, it doesn't take much to fill me up, really.

Same here. When I say fill me up, I mean...healthily. I can eat half and apple and feel full, but I'm sure my body doesn't like that. Fuck you body.

[She laughs.]

True. It's the same for me. But I'm sure it's better from you for a vitamin point of view, you know?

Possibly. Maybe...I suppose that's right. Well, you're still consuming more protein than me by eating that bread.

I think I'm good for protein mostly, yeah. And I guess fibre. But otherwise, it's not all that good.

Fibre is good. So is protein. Vitamin C is good too.

See, that last one is more your thing.

I know it is, that's why I said it. But hey, who cares? You look fine, that's all that matters.

Ehhh, you look better than me. I don't know, I don't like how I look that much, but it suits you just fine. I guess it's probably partly because I like my women curvier than this, you know?

[He nods.]

You are curvy though. I mean you have curves. Better girls being twigs then men. That just...well it looks pathetic. That's why I wear a cape. I need something to intimidate people.

Well... yeah, kind of, but the curves I have are barely there.I've seen pubescent girls with a bigger chest than mine. And I have reasons to want to intimidate people too, double, but I'm both a woman and scrawny like this.
