soulus | Catch-all: Alex

[ choo choo, wufus. here's alex, apparently looking out to see where he is given how she's purposely come to the train station. ]

[He's seated on a bench to enjoy the solitude when it's broken by Alex's entrance. He lifts his head to watch her.]

What is it?

[ yeah fuck your solitude, rufus. ]

Just checking in. You don't want to say hello to any of the others yet?

Why would that be necessary? We've been trading correspondence.

They're here in person now. It's a little different.

Depending on how things proceed tomorrow, we may be seeing each other then.

[ mwister pwawn you're so pwagmatic ]

Or they'll come looking for you before then and drag the whole process out.

They'll have to find me first.

[ she looks at him. ]

Sometimes, Rufus, it's not that hard.

I don't hide.

I'm not saying you do?

. . . Now that you've checked in, what will you do?

[ she shrugs! ]

I'd say I'd sit here and mind my business, but the seats are gone.

You can stand.

Alright, I'll stand and mind my own business.

[He nods, then minds his own business as well by moving his gaze aside. He's serious about this.]
