Send ✋ to hold my muse's hand
Roxy had never been good with scary movies. She always got way too into what she watched--which was fine with something cute and fun! But as soon as you brought some freaky (unpunchable) ghost into the mix, she was screaming and shaking and hiding under blankets.
And yet, at the same time, Roxy couldn’t get enough of them.
A dilemma, for sure, generally solved by dragging someone along for the ride. Tonight’s lucky pick was Cyon, a first timer who probably wasn’t prepared for her melodrama but was taking it all in stride. They were sitting on her couch together, hip to hip, her, curled up knees to chest, and him, with an arm wrapped ‘round her. So far, she had managed not to scream him deaf, but the movie was only halfway done, and it would only get worse from here.
As the tension in the movie rose, she whimpered, covering her eyes with one hand to try and save composure. A sudden warmth on her free hand has her peeking out from between her fingers, to see that Cyon had taken hold of it, rubbing reassuringly with his thumb. When she glances up to see his kind-hearted expression, her heart melts, and she can’t help but bury her face in his chest, whining softly. What a good friend...
